Gameology.org -- Academic Gamers gets Facelift

Matt Barton's picture

Hi, guys. I thought you might want to check out the new gameology site. Zach moved the whole thing to Drupal and gave it a fantastic facelift. I'm rather envious of Zach's layout, I must admit. Do you guys like the little window boxes on the sides or the tabbed look to the main banner? Or do we want to follow a KISS method here?

Very nice layout

I love the layout of the Gameology website. I prefer the tabbed look to be honest but could perfectly live with anything that looks that professional.

A KISS-method? Must be my non-native English language Broca center at work here but I have not the slightest idea what you actually mean with a KISS-method. Surely it must be entirely different then two individuals pressing their lips against the other's lips.

KISS

Kiss is an acronym meaning Keep It Simple, Stupid. The idea is that you should err on the side of simplicity, since simple things are easier to maintain and fix if things go wrong. In design, KISS means fewer options and features, but increased usability.

I really like this new

I really like this new redesign, sorry for not stopping by in a while.

Still. the banner on top is missing something-- there is a lot of dead space between the Armchair Arcade logo and the joystick photo.

I'm going to work on a mock=up redesign of it.
