Congrats on Pale Moon's website new design‼

Post by KNTRO » 2015-10-06, 14:44

Hi there!

I just wanna congratulate everyone behind the Pale Moon's website new theme‼ :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: The wolf at the homepage is quite impressive, quite sockin' actually! :o The colors pattern is cool too!

Seems it's just a temporary design by a young lady named Laura Bevon because of Halloween. Well, I vote to keep it a whole year, since Pale Moon has just turned 6 years old. I suggest to keep this theme until Pale Moon turns 7, on October 4, 2016.

What do you people think about this?

Nah, This is only for Halloween. We will return to the old theme afterward. Also, this was in use last year as well, though only on the main site. At the time I didn't have time to bring it to the Add-ons site because I was under the gun and it is actually a completely different implementation than what Moonchild uses on the main site.
How far are you prepared to go? How much are you prepared to risk? How many people are you prepared to sacrifice for victory?
Are you willing to die friendless, alone, deserted by everyone? Because that's what may be required of you in the war that is to come.

Yes thank you!! Really looks good! :thumbup:

Yesterday I was showing one my bros around your website and telling him how wonderful Pale Moon is, and the he told me that the Halloween design really made Pale Moon worth trying; "looks like an adventure is to be explored here!" is his exact words.

So once again, great job and keep it up! :) :thumbup:

I'm seeing if I can make a "theme selection" on the website (setting stored in cookies) - of course this would be very much a side/hobby project ;)

Yes, please‼ Thank you for havin' in mind this!

And yeah, just think of this as a very low priority task. I know you first have to deal with compiling code, applying patches, dealing with the Sync server, offering support in the forums, etc. So, consider this theme subject as "something to be done somewhere in the far future".

Now, to be honest, I was just thinking as a theme change/update only once a year, in October to be precise. Why October? Well…
  • It's Halloween [the main excuse here, right? :mrgreen: ]
  • It's Pale Moon birthday
  • It's Moonchild birthday‼ :clap:
But if there's a theme selector, it's better yet! :thumbup:

Thank you all for your thoughts.

Has there ever been a Xmas theme? I can't remember. This would be great as well! :)

If you still have in mind this idea, please, consider doing so with the forums as well. At least, having a colors pattern. I'm not talking about textures or pics for the forums, but just single color selection with gradient. I think it's a little code hacking for HTML.

No, I'm not complaining about this forum being "too blue", :mrgreen: but, hey, a lil bit o' more colors ain't a bad idea either, is it? ;)

Doing something like this in phpBB is a whole different story.
