I didn't think the old one really fit well with the color scheme that much, to be honest. I love the new banner, great update guys! :D

Try reloading without cache. I believe it's ctrl + f5 in chrome.

The banner looks nice indeed! :)

I'm not sure about the white letters on the banner, though, I think there should be a bit more contrast.

Very neat! I like how the design incorporates with the tabs at the top. :thumb:

 

Perhaps a tad more drop shadow on the logo would improve contrast. But I'm certainly not complaining!

Really nice, I just love how the logo fits with the background. :D

So that means the banner will change every Trixie?

:P

Pretty cool ;)


"If you try to please everybody, you often times end up pleasing nobody, especially yourself. When somebody offers to do a favor for free, like making a mod for SimCity 4, you shouldn't be overly critical of something generously given to you. In other words, you shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth." - Twilight Sparkle after playing SimCity

Coincidence, I guess.  I am off the site many times during the day and certainly overnight.

Yes, I noticed the change too. I think the Simtropolis-logo is more readable now. To me, the banner is perfect now, no more change needed :)

Yes, they just moved the banner and contrasted the logo. Now it's perfect.

    I preferred it before. The updated one is OK, although I think the drop shadow on the 2014 is a bit strong.

     

    Edit: Thanks for toning the drop-shadow down - looks a million times better now :)

    Liking the re-positioning and logo tweak. Looks good! :D

    I noticed on the portal and omnibus, though, the nav tabs are floating 1px or so above the content area. Nitpicky, I know. Just thought I'd point it out. :P

    I wonder if the byline under each CJ's title (in the CJ section could be tweaked? The pale blue '...a Simtropolis city journal' doesn't stand out against the new background - maybe redone in a shade of red, like the '2014' on the home page?

    Gone away ...  The graphics that is.  Also some of the stuff on the header band.  Wazzup?

    seems some of the controls are still there, but the icons are gone.  New banner soon?

     

    Maybe its my browser: Firefox 27.0

    Looks normal here:

    I'm running Firefox 27.0.1 but that's only a minor update to 27.0.

     

    Maybe your browser cache needs purging? I found this was necessary to get the new banner to update.

    Nope.  It must look like an advert.  I'll have to see what Adblock+ is up to.  If it has any advertising attached to it, it would be killed there.

    Odd, with Adblock Plus switched on, I can still see the banner. (Obviously, ABP is normally switched off, since I'm okay with ads to keep this site alive :) )

    Fixed.  The pattern for ST's stuff had apparently changed.  Changed the filter to accept anything from ST.
