Design the TTLG - aka Do My Job

I like koyla's design too. Put the tabs at in the blank space.
The dontate, ttlg wear it, photoalbum, our world tabs.

Be nice to see a dark color combo of the same design.

Here's my WIP. The idea is to align the design to the left side and make it fluid (adding 4th, maybe 5th column, making the article area wider).

Very nice redface, my favourite so far. Only thing it needs is something to show that TTLG is a game community. At the moment it has too much "business" look in it I think. Maybe an artistic main banner like in Southquarter.com :idea:.

Again, it all seems rather business-like. It's very nice, but it's nice in an OUR COMPANY POLICY kind of way.

Very clean... too clean, too corporate, not enough colour or identity imo.'

While Kolya's suffers from similar issues, at least it has a touch more artistry in spots.

Perhaps the top (of any design) could have a row full of pictures of the boxes of all the LGS games.

And it would never need updating :(

I think for any redesign of TTLG, the thing to consider is letting the design breathe a bit. All the designs so far have been nice, but they're far to stoic for TTLG. It needs something classic, and to open up and live a bit.

Now I feel like on a vernissage. Where's the free champagne?

I think GBM's #3 design is my favourite, and to be contrary my favourite bit is the leader design because it's so eye-catching.

I think the design I've been playing with has ended up too boxy and without enough focus on the hosted sites, but I don't want to just scrap it :p

That's a really nice design, my favorite so far. I would get rid of, or find a way to soften the blue bar across the very top...the one with the swirly designs behind it. The two clash...perhaps find a way to only use the swirly design at the top.
