The FanZone! Redesign

The Fanzone!, our site forum and message boards, has undergone a layout design. Based on the BlackBox theme layout by Crip for SMF.

I really like the look of this theme and have modified some of the css to enhance the functionality and overall look of the site in multiple browsers. As far as the available themes this one is a good fit, from my perspective, for our website and its common look and feel.

The first aspect was to remove the fixed width aspect to allow for a more fluid layout by changing the wrapper width to 100%. The next changes were to enhance links so they have a distinctive difference from the text. I Added yellow font color with additional black background for link hover, to highlight and contrast hovered links and added underline to links in post fields, to highlight links. This is most noticeable when hovering over the link.

Check it out and let us know what you think!

Thanks again Crip for the great layout!

"What Happens in Windsor...Stays in Windsor!"

Spring 2008

This Spring features the beginning of a major web-accessibility project to near completion. Check out the Site Map to see the transfomation. Most of the categories now feature the fully functional fluid layout. There have been several adjustments and transformations along the way but I am sure you will be pleased with the results.

There is also another addition that has been in bet testing and is still in its infancy, our xxxSearch!. We are working on our Google Custom Search engine to help navigate the site quicker. The search function does add a touch to the page load time but the functionality is worth it. It is also being developed for compliance and non-javascript supported.

As for the FanZone!, it is also being upgraded and updated. Out with some of the old and more new stuff as determined by our visitors.

Thanks again for all of your input and participation in our beta testing!
