Updated Site
 

(e: colin answered my question)

overall, i really like the new design of graalians, reminds me of animal crossing :)

Optimal dimensions for avatars is 128x128, but as long as it's square it will resize.

Avatars are circular now because it makes for a better transition when resizing on mobile devices. We are going to attempt to make the theme responsive so people don't need to download an app to engage.

Really like it. I think it looks nice. Sometimes updates are like "ew wtf" and then everybody hates them for a couple of weeks before it dies down, but I don't think this will be one of those times.

It's nice.
Really love these smooth/clean looking designs for websites.
Now comes the moment to put effort into a fitting round avatar since signatures are gone anyways

I'm liking it so far, the new colors for the first background really brighten the whole site up imo

Wait I thought Colin resigned? (I've been inactive here)

Waaw

Looks very clean, and professional
Background is a lot nicer

...

They removed the status'?

nice

Omg I love this update. Btw can someone post the background image so I can have it as a wallpaper or something

I have it currently as my wallpaper at work - I might use those other ones as my phone wallpaper

Is this really all were getting bro? Where the live chat at??

Can we have the hyperlink be bigger on the Graalians logo, like the size of the red square?

I was expecting a merger with era go now that verified is in charge of the forum.

W8 where tf are signatures at ??? Am I missing something ????

This

They removed signatures to give the forum a cleaner look I think
If I could choose then I'd want them back though

Graalians Style Themes
 

I love the way the site looks now and everything but is there any plans for Era, Zone, and Ol'West themes for graalians? I know majority of the forums is ex-classic roleplaying people but I feel like the reason for that is cause people from the other servers have always felt as if these forums arnt for them but for classic people. Litterally a year or two ago the ol'west section was popping with threads made by the community but most of them left cause forums never really appealed to the ol west community :/

Sorry for any grammer errors I litterally typed this at work.

nope classic is superior

The plan is to have a theme for all servers, I can't deliver an exact timeline but can say we have another one in the works now.

hotness

- Ol'west section died due to the game getting worse and worse (Hence why a ton of people left)

- Zone has a similar situation but their section is mostly dead due to Zone in general being terrible atm

- Era has their own website making the era section on graalians close to useless

Extra forum themes are welcome imo but to me that seems like a waste of time and effort due to barely anyone even using them

As long as the site retains its format, I'm cool with it.

I legit want to/very possibly am going to have that picture professionally printed and framed so I can hang it like in the back of my closet or something so no one else can see it and ask questions but I'll have it as a graal memoriam because it's freaking beautiful and graal has kinda become a pretty large/important chapter of my life.

Cue the tears.

Graalians is for everyone so it's only fair people can choose to use a theme that represents their server even if that number is smaller than the Classic presence.

Adding in new themes will be much easier now that this one is set up so there's no issue of it taking up too much time or effort - we can allocate all of that to improving the site.

Would rather it be the whole top of the screen. Also, there should be different wallpapers for different servers. A zone one would be dope

I want signatures back, goddamnit. :(

^^^^^ sigs pls

I really like the new layout. Looks really clean and the background image is phenomenal.

Good job to all who worked on it.

Apologies for the removal of signatures but they had to be removed for a few reasons and won't be coming back.

The current size is fine and completely reasonable given the size of the logo - it's not hard to click.

Would it be possible to list some of those reasons so that we could have some understanding as to WHY they aren't coming back?

In due time you'll be seeing an update in which I can explain then but as of now you'll just have to understand that signatures wouldn't have been removed if it weren't necessary.

everyone's signatures sucked anyways except mine

kinda sucks that I can't direct people to shmeq trying to fight people for me though

Just put it at the bottom of every post you make, I'll always be there for you...

if we have sigs we will see Eugeens ecchi anime girl stuff.

hahahahahaha.

I still miss that repbar sucking gif I made quite a while ago :(

dam it colin! :(

Plz just let me c those cringey anime gifs

Flashbacks to when the link was the entire top of the page.

Forums look really clean and nice. I like them a lot, personally. My only thing is that I miss the button that allowed you to select multiple posts to quote at a time. It could be me being dumb and not knowing how to do it in a new way, but it would be kind of nice to have that back.

Multi-quote will be added back soon - some things are still being worked on with this new layout and that's one of them.

Thanks for the quick reply and answer. Glad to hear :)

I liked that

we could do that????

I quoted everyone individually, wtf

wwow nice lmao >:]

I had habits that made me really hate it.

Button animations would be cool
