Looks like it'd make a good default home page (or preinstalled bookmark) for fresh installs, nice and user friendly with simply access to games/sites etc.


Bookmarked too :D
 
Wow, congratulations! :D

I second this. It's nicely laid-out, easy to navigate, and it has tons of useful links. What more could you want? :p


Also, I have a link to contribute which might be useful to have on there (I couldn't find it, so please forgive me if it's there already and I've simply missed it): Legal Emulation Resources - a selection of links to software for various systems, that the original developers have kindly given the green-light to for legal redistribution over the internet.

Done. Have placed the bookmark oin the OTHER section for now. Will probably start a new page for EMULATION and add it to that etc. Anyone else who wishes to provide me with some cool EMULATION links etc, feel free.


Thanks Prometheus

This looks great! Wonderful idea. :)


Small nitpick - could you change "YouTube's" to "YouTube" or "YouTubes"? That error stands out like a sore thumb to me wherever it happens. :lol:

i like


though whatever you used to do the thumbnail of my site was probably internet explorer (it really shouldn't render like that)


not that it eneds to be on there at all, but i suppose there is some pandora related stuff :D
 
I like the change! Much less loading for parts you're not interested in now.


Not sure if this was covered, but assuming you're building these for the Pandora's 800 pixel wide screen, are you compensating for the scroll bar at the right and any browser borders so you don't get the scroll bar at the bottom? I don't have a Pandora to test this on so I'm just going by assumptions and [admittedly older] web design guidelines. :p


Couple more things, when I started at the page you've linked to the beta, I was expecting to see images of the different sections as opposed to the software section. Also, the links to the different sections feels a bit odd at the top. With this format, I'm more used to seeing the links below the page header or main banner. It didn't occur to me before since I was just scrolling down, but now that they're separated into different pages it stands out to me quite a lot.

I agree. Was hoping others like it also.

This has been taken into consideration, however, probably needs some fine tuning as per the scroll bars etc. Will look into it.

This is good idea that I didn't think of. Will knock it up and see how it looks. Only thing is, that it would take an extra click for those logging all the time to see software updates etc. They will probably get used to it, as think this is a good idea.

I was actually thinking the same thing, but was not sure if others were thinking it. Now that someone has mentioned it I will change it and see how it looks.


Many thanks for the feedback!


Cheers,

Awesome, nothing further I can see for now. Nothing stands out anymore, and that's a good thing! Means nothing glaring is poking me in the eye. ;)


Can't wait to start using this with my Pandora. Will bookmark this topic for now, just in case something else changes. Nice job!
