Hey all,
Just started working on a new design concept last night. Please take a look and let me know what you think of it so far. I'm more of a programmer, so don't judge me too harshly
Click here for the design concept. The game boxes change the menu,
click here to see more of an idea of what changes what.
Should I change the colours? Ditch the new menu idea? Any suggestions?
Let me know what you think, constructive criticism welcome

How do you judge constructiveness? The idea behind it is nice; I think the boxes should be in full color all the time and the instructions on the left should be cut down to 3 words or none at all. What I think needs changing is the "Home Help Search Profile Logout" on the forum pages. You are moving away from minimalist, slowly, but surely.

Looks good. A new colour scheme might bring home the idea of new site/redesign more clearly but it's not a major issue. Perhaps a new screenshot graphic for the banner as well?

Thanks for the input guys, I have come up with another mock up based on feedback received check out
design mock-up version 2 here, please let me know what you think
Btw, the menu won't change with this revised edition, clicking a game box would just take you to that games main area

Oh, that's great. The colors are great, I love the boxes, love the banner. I don't know why, but I love the original HD and HDDB boxes. What I don't like, still, is the message telling you to click a box and the message you have on the left side.
I think the area on the left is good for a message of the day type thing, but that little message you have there is... eh.

That looks great - just different enough to say it's a revamp but still with the same core identity. The only change I'd make would be to have an actual game screenshot as the banner. Perhaps a "revolving" one with shots from the different games and showing the various different environments? More work for you though....

Thanks for the feedback guys, feel free to submit other ideas if you want. I will work on it over the weekend if not before and see what else comes to life. Stay tuned!
