The New Look of Digital Theatre

By Azad April 25, 2000 7:13 PM

It took us a week and a few days to do a redesign of the Digital Theatre site. Since we have a larger audience now (yay!) and more content to publish on the site, we felt that a new design would be refreshing for everyone.

The new Digital Theatre design has a more professional look and feel to it. There are a lot more items added to the main menu. Navigation and access to the different features is hopefully more accesible.

The news format has also changed from the past designs. Instead of posting the entire story on the front page, the headline and a short description suffices to increase readability. This also provides more room for other content that we will be placing onto the site as time progresses.

At the moment, the stock photo section of the site is still under construction. In a short while, we will be creating a database of the stock images so that it is browsable, much like the Resources and Tips section.

We hope that all of you will enjoy the new site just as much as we loved making it. Feel free to send us comments!

Mellya, Thank you! You are always the first to complement us ;) ... 

Anyway here are some updates. 
1. I just fixed the headlines at the bottom they should be showing real news now. 
2. I finally fixed the auto subject filling in for comments up until now it was just saying RE: RE: etc.. 
3. We have diagnosed the problem with the comment preview and that should be fixed today. 
4. I am also expecting to be able to have the thread viewable while posting you comments soon. 

once again thanks and enjoy.

Looks good. Orange is really the 'in' color this year I guess. 

Only thing I've noticed is that the main page doesn't quite fit into an 800x600 window - its just a bit too wide. The comments pages fit just fine though.

We are still trying to figure the 800x600 issue but there are many other wee bugs we are trying to smash which are kinda important not just visually..
