Like they said, I think its awesome! My suggestion for a change would be to keep the current tab you're in, open as you browse. For instance if you go to the Library tab and then pick a link, as soon as the page loads it switches you back to the Game Info tab. Instead, it'd be cool if the library tab stayed open until you chose a new tab.

It really doesnt need that. Because obviously, if you are in the armor page, you just clicked on the Library section. Thus program the armor page to show that section. We just haven't done it yet.

I love the new layout, it looks nice and fits the new client perfectly. thumbs up. As mentionned just making searching more userfriendly (less clicks) would make me completely happy too. I don't care how you do it but recoding each page seems like much work to me as oposed to making your page structured and not loading the whole site with each click.

The idea of having the tab stay open on each page you go on is possible but is a lot of work. You see, each page uses a function called "include" which, basically, includes another html file inside of itself. For instance, the tabs on the left is a seperate html file that is linked on all of the sites. One way we could keep the tabs open is by converting the website to frames, which would not be hard to do, but would be a lot of redundant work. Each seperate html file already has the "includes" included in the code, thus - redundantly removing those.
With frames, your tab would stay open, and this is something I will suggest to the staff and see what they think. I believe this will cut loading times down as well.

Frames might work but you'll go through the same pain indeed since you'ld need to remove all of the "includes". I think we'll all be patient and accept the fact that you'll need to go through a tremendously horrible task of changing a line of code in each page of the website. I'ld consider converting structure immediatly even if it's a lot of work, it could help you later on when adding a feature (your idea of frames or going further and coding it (php/asp/...) keeping your content management seperated from the structure management).

I like the new layout a lot. It's more ..Nexusish?
One thing that bothers me though, is that if you tell someone about it and it's their first time ever going to nexusatlas.com it can be very confusing.
However on the old look on the left it had the listings Spells Armor, ect.
Now you have to click library to find it.

Blasts...! You guys beat me to my idea for layout, I actually started re-building Nexus Life Corp 4 months ago, production ceased 1 month later since I have been between places, I really like the theme of course and it has gone much towards what I was trying to accomplish, the new item slots are also very catchy, Perhaps a use can be made of them though as a quick link to those specific item types. Also I see you guys too had the issue with coping with Nexus' Drop over edges on Side display. I simply just ignored the rules and went ahead and extended it a bit further with the common background I had set for pages which suited the need for faster loading speed on slow connections and did not need to retrace tabs. Although it is a shame to not see the "health" bar be utilized, perhaps with Stat Addict you guys could add in a randomly Generated person to show on the bottom left corner of display to sort of tie in Endpage and Prevent the page to look as if its trailing on.
-----Nexus Life Corp which was a Fighting guild that would have eventually been marked much like now a days Nexus Champions, except was made for purely 1 on 1 Dueling. Anyways side project that I built for someone in Nexus who wanted me to do everything for him. --------
Anyways, back to what my point of coming here was to find out if the creator would be offened if I continue my work once I get back on solid ground in life. I of course do not need to because as my Title in Nexus states, I am the East Koguryian Ninja and I can always come up with something else but it is over 70% done at the moment so it would be a pain to backtrack.

I direct you to this information, posted by Rachel in the "Buttons" thread. If you have Photoshop, your life will be much easier by using this template. http://www.nexusatlas.com/Button%20Template.psdIf not, you can work with this.
