SpongeOddFan Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Orca loads fast for me. Oceans does not. Oh, and I'll just give you my honest opinion: - You can't say you have finished it and have "Coming soon!" in 2 places on the main page where everyone can see. - The "Top 5 discussions" are mostly "Ask ________ anything" threads. Doesn't look great from a guest POV. I think it would look better if it was just random threads (not IP) - I've never liked big font & small font being on the same page. But that's probably just me. - Tumblr icon doesn't go anywhere except SBC homepage. - the way the posts look in Spin-Off forum is not great - The "Wiki" drop-down on the main site is the same as the forums. that's b/c AN & Dylan were working hard on new SBU & Oceans 9. give them more time to work on.
Guest ssj4gogita4 Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 that's b/c AN & Dylan were working hard on new SBU & Oceans 9. give them more time to work on. Ok, let me put it this way... this is like the same release as the 1st SBU, imo. It's still got things missing/not completed, just like the 1st one. Why rush a release if things are not completed? I would rather see a completed site than another similar thing to the 1st. The only difference between this and the 1st one is that this has a few things put on it to make it look spiffy.
Clappy Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 Maybe it's because I'm on mobile, but Oceans does load fast for me. Will test this out and more of the other features then. But I do like what I've seen so far except for: - The "Top 5 discussions" are mostly "Ask ________ anything" threads. Doesn't look great from a guest POV. I think it would look better if it was just random threads (not IP) This. Absolutely this. I know the Games section is incredibly popular, but do we really need to have them appear in the Top 5 discussions? Ssj is absolutely right about a guest POV. They come to a SpongeBob forum to talk about SpongeBob. Not ask questions to other users who have no idea who they are. If there is a way to filter that to actual discussions, then great. 1
Jellatine Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 Very nice! SBU looks clean and professional, I'm with ssj and Claps about the top discussions... imo, since it's SPONGEBOB Universe, maybe we should find a way so that the top discussions come from the SpongBob section of the forums, cuz having 3 of the same kind game section threads looks a bit silly. As for Ocean 9, it brings a smile to my face to see my artwork as part of the skin, Dylan you did a brilliant job at coloring them and doing the vectors, we should collab more often ;P The one thing bothering me is the size of the descriptions below each title, makes it look a bit distorted to me, maybe it's the font's fault, so maybe that's something to take a look at. Oh, and it loads just fine for me. 2

Moar Boy Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 One of my topic is included in the top 5 discussion, whatever drug they put in my food I want more of it.
