Re: *Important* New SE4 Site and IRC Java Client
Some ideas you might want to consider for the site are switching from times new roman font (ewh) to at least Arial. 
You may also want to use a white text for paragraphs and reserve coloured text for headings.
For large images, it might be a good idea to make a thumbnail image to avoid having them mess around with your formatting. Using %'s rather than fixed sizes for your tables can help to fill up the window.
Perhaps switch your image for se.net with that nice new banner I made for Fyron.
Anyways, keep up the work! |

Re: *Important* New SE4 Site and IRC Java Client
Always happy to see new comers in the SE world.
Very good idea to put XP themes... it would be cool to have a preview, in order to choose one without installing it...
Your dreadnought pics are upside down... any way to put them in a "normal" position ?

Re: *Important* New SE4 Site and IRC Java Client
I like clean and simple sites. Your's fits in with this and I like it very much. I have just one comment,.. Make the blue color of the top menu a bit brighter. (0,0,255 on black does not have enough contrast.) I would suggest something like 75,150,255
That's it, that's all, keep up the good work.
Cheers!  |

Re: *Important* New SE4 Site and IRC Java Client
Great News!
Some of you while at work or school may use a java irc client to log onto #se4 or other channels on gamesurge. I have good news on my site I have set up a java client that is completely customized for space empires Users. You dont have to install anything so it should work from any computer with internet access. It works with every browser. It probly works on Macs too, but I dont have a mac to test it on, thank god
If there are any suggestions on how to improve it they would be welcomed.

Re: *Important* New SE4 Site and IRC Java Client
I suggest ditching the background in the java chat applet... A plain colored background (even white) would be much, much better for a chat applet.

Re: *Important* New SE4 Site and IRC Java Client
The background of the irc client is now a light blue color and makes the text much easier to see. I encourge everyone to use it, its just like the forums except its live chat.
