Data Sphere

Hey peeps!

So you might have noticed that there's now one awesome website on the front of the forum. This has literally just been put into place by myself, but is totally not my work.

I'll leave this open for the admins who have contributed to this wonderful masterpiece to make an announcement shortly. You can access it from the forums by clicking the Site Index button you find on the menu at the top.

Enjoy

Caught me by surprise, but looks quite spiffy!

Thanks for putting the site live, dude!

Yess, Data Sphere now has a brand spanking new blog. We're going to covering Infinity news, blog about tactics, and of course: review terrain!

Also, we threw in some sexy new forum icons.

Many thanks go to SCORCH who did a TON of work putting the new site together!

Header for forum pages still JPG.

That's all you can say? *slap*

We'll get that fixed soon. NOW GO ENJOY THE BLOG!

Whoah, Shiny!

Looking very nice!

The Events navlink gives a 404.
There's a Go West Terrain navlink which leads to the news section.

Thanks for putting the site online! Really appreciate it!

Thanks for noticing. I'll get on it right away

Great work! Really slick design. I like it.

I would like a connection from forum to blog and not only from blog to forum. And if possible not the main logo that links back to forum front page, because thats the way its expected to work (other as official forum).

In the bar underneath the header banner it says "Site Index". That's the link you're looking for.

We'll make that more obvious in the future: we're looking at some sexier forum skins anyway.

Ah cool. Indeed thats what I'm looking for. Havent recognized it for that ...

Great work guys, you all did a superb job. Love it!

Oh and folks, when someone has worked hard on something we all enjoy for free. Please try and begin with a thank you or a positive comment. I'm sure there will be time to iron out the kinks. Trust me its hard work.

Looks pretty slick; I like how the sphere is evolving.

Whoa! Some folks have definitely brought put their 'A' Game Very nice. The way a good home page for a news sites should look.

Thanks for the kind words, you all! That keeps us running!
There are still some things to work out though, so if you guys would just put it to the test in the next couple of days that would be great!
Meanwhile we'll be putting out content and all!

Furthermore, we're still looking for bloggers, writers and columnists. So if anyone is interested feel free to contact us.

For example:
Red Harvest, I'm a big fan of your scratchbuild terrain-thread over on the Official forum! I'd spend money on your Bourak buildings if they were for sale! It would be awesome to have someone with your expertise to write something educational about your DIY terrain and how to start such a project, so that other people can learn the do's and don'ts.

PM incoming regarding this.

the side looks now realy good.
it treuly fits the infinity univers style now great job to all who helped to make it.

I really like the new site. It's awesome to have a first class site devoted to Infinity! The content is good, and there's already quite a bit there.

My only gripe is that since the update, I haven't been able to log in to the forum via Tapatalk.

I figured I couldn't be the only one. Thanks!

Wasn't sure of the new site, probably because it was unexpected when I first opened up.
However, I really like the little bits of tactica, news and fluff on the main page.

Thank you! ^^ More to come!

Maybe now that the exodus is unavoidable, the front page should have links to other language sites? A menu with all the sister sites (Infinity Warcors, Bureau Aegis, etc). And so do the others, I hope, to form a network of fan sites.

Jup, the front page is going to get a big fat redesign anyway. But we wanted to get the forums in order, first.

That's definitely on the agenda, yes! The magazine has always been planned to become the main 'HUB' for all things related to Infinity. things stalled a little after CB contacted us with their proposal, as we had other things on our minds to see this exodus in good order.
It will fire up soon again!;)
