Preview the ALL NEW STSF.net!

Started by Webmaster,

Posted · Report post

Interested in seeing what STSF.net could soon look like?  

 

Your friendly neighborhood webmaster has been hard at work trying to come up with a new design that will make STSF.net better looking, easier to navigate, and more attractive to those looking to join a GREAT SIMming group.

 

Now...  before you get really excited or enraged about the redesign...  there are a couple of things to keep in mind:

 

1.) The image you are about to see is a preliminary design concept.  Meaning it may have rough spots left in there that don't look good.  

 

2.) Anything and everything you see in this preview is subject to change.  Just like anything else still in the design stages, features and other areas may be tweeked or modified before the final piece is released.

 

3.) This work has not been given the final approval of the GM Council.  The members have seen a VERY VERY early model of what this page could look like and have given me permission to continue development of it.  But it has not been santioned to be used as the official STSF.net site design.  

 

Now that the preliminaries are out the way...  lets get down to business.

 

Here is a thumbnail sized image of a the screen shot I'm working on.  Click the thumbnail image to see the full sized image.

Here are some of the new features in the works with this redesign:

 

- New user interface.  Hopefully this one is a little "cleaner" and more professional looking.  Graphics are being added to help increase the attractiveness of the page.

 

- Promotion of STSF.net SIMs.  Upcoming SIMs will automatically be highlighted on the front page of our site.  You will only see the SIMs being held in the next 3 days.

 

- Quick access to these message boards.  You will be able to immediately log into the STSF.net message boards from the front page of our website.  You will find a login box on the top right hand side of the screen letting you go straight to the message boards if you wish.  (Note:  This feature will be more prominately labled in an upcoming revision to the design.)

 

- Online FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions).  GMs will be able to post answers to the questions they most often run into while running their SIMs.

 

- Online File Library.  This is a feature still in it's early stages of development.  It may or may not be ready to go when the STSF.net redesign is officially launched, but it is something that is actively being worked on.  GMs and members will be able to post files to the library to share with others from the forum.

 

Feel free to offer your comments and suggestions about the work in progress so far in the Questions & Comments message board.  This post itself cannot be replied to as it is part of the announcements that appear on the front page of our website.

 

Thanks for your support of STSF.net!
