From Kez in the forums:

Hey guys! TWoW’s comic host SpiderForest has spent the last couple weeks getting ready to unveil an entirely new front page system that we hope will benefit not only the webcomickers hosted there, but also the READERS. It lists the last 10 updated comics in order on the front page, with links to more longer descriptions and more information. What we don’t want to do is have a static main page.

Check out our new main page! Spread the word if you like.

The other day I was trying to figure out how to log onto the forums of Buzzcomix. I fumbled around the site until I found the correct spot to login for it. Then I found out that it didn’t work.

I guess the reason is they were in the middle of a redesign. More info in an interview at Comixtalk.

Theme looks good so far!

Joey Manley of TalkAboutComics posted today a screenshot of the redesign for Comicspace.com.

As a fellow web designer I must implore that yellow be toned down slightly. I like the pastel pallet, however, there is too much yellow Yellow is bright. If I may, I suggest using the fade in on top and bottom (very well done - kudos) but make the center a white or at least off-white.

Might be a personal opinion, but perhaps a border on the modular boxes would “contain” the boxes more and not have the blend in with the background too much. This might be fixed by changing the background to contrast the boxes more, however, I think a border would be best.

I’m going to assume this is a first draft and it is a good start. Looking forward to the redesign. From experience, I hope it goes smoothly. And please use text for those titles of your boxes! SEO!

What are your thoughts on the redesign?
