Those game websites are pretty sleek, fada. Though in this following design, I didn't introduce the top-only navigation/menus. Having the menus on top would help make our job easier
, but I can't help but wonder where the shoutbox will go.
Let's not throw the game website (top menu) idea out though.
Encompassing HHC's refined menu from MAD TUS (
link) and trying to meet all the other wormy/noob-friendly goals, we have this design that I scatched up from the last. I do believe we will use the Jquery plug-in (
link) to help create a good how-to for new comers, but for this visual, it's not present (too early).
We are trying to keep the design simple for right now. With the exception of the site tutorial, we can attempt to tweak and culture the design later.
As always, this is a rough, early design. Nothing is promised to stay intact. All ideas are welcomed. Please provide constructive criticism as to if we should scrap the side navi and adopt a top-only menu, etc , etc.
And if you think it is utter garbage, then say it.
Perfect may need to hear it.
*edit: If we can, lets try to keep animated graphics to a minimum. The water on the image is just to a filler for now; though it doesn't mean it will be scrapped. And the flags and menu links on the top are optional, yet not necessary needed [there].
