The New Layout

We are doing tests on ads right now, and have been for the last several weeks. The ad you see on the front page right now is something we are looking at and not something permanent as of yet.

The ads you are seeing in the posts and the text ads were because you were not logged into the site. Registered users do not see the ads or the intellitxt when they log in.

The new look of the site extends beyond Guild Wars as GuildWarsGuru.com is part of a network. We are currently revamping all the MMO Guru network sites for a consistent theme.

The loads times are because of an increase in traffic with GWO being down temporarily today and the Wiki being down. We performed some server updates not more than 3 weeks ago and had some issues with the latest site update but these are continually being addressed.

We are continuing work on the template for some issues as well as getting the auction system template update ready to go as well.

The loading times are slightly slower but not so much that it will kill you. The first couple days it was horrid but it has picked back up lately and is fine. I really like the new layout. It is nice. Good job on it.

actually I think the ads blend it a lot more with the new design, with this design the content is nearer to the top so you see it right away, also ads load last after the page loads. Incase you noticed the disable ads button, such a feature will be available shortly

I personally don't see the ads. I mean, I know they are there and they are in my visual but don't make a difference. Maybe it's just me but my eyes (like on any site) reject and see what I'm looking for.

I'm glad you removed post count from view..mine is getting a little too high lol

Nice to see people are enjoying the new Skin. They have been putting up with us mods for a while now, yelling at them on what to fix.

I just realized that with addition of the new skin I can no longer view the "Find all posts/Threads from Such and Such person" stuff. It says I don't have access. Is that going to be changed or was their a reason to eliminate it?

in the memberinfo? have yet to update that

Bug report:

The tabs atop each page only display the mouseover effect, once when viewed in mozilla 1.7.13. If you would like an alternative that is less code heavy, cotnact me via pm and I can send you a css solution (free of charge of course), that can make using alternate skins easier.

Enchanted, we had a loading problem with the tabs. We were pre-loading everything and it was causing significant load on the server and forums so they wouldn't cache. We had to go with a on mouseover event versus on load to reduce the number of simultaneous hits.

Check your pm's

first few days site was loading extremely slow, now it runs very fast (finally, I was really getting pissed off with constant timeouts whenever I read something). New skin is nice, clean, simple & effective. Thumbs up, keep up the good work.

Does the new skin not work with firefox, or is something just wrong on my side?

I use moz and it's ok.

It works ok with firefox 1.5+
