New Revision3 website coming soon.

[markgarrigan]

Just loaded up Revision3 and a new layout was up....

It quickly reverted back. Looked nice.

[boldfire]

Did you grab a screen shot? ;) Exciting stuff...

[eminemdrdre00]

Pics or it didnt happen!

[markgarrigan]

No pic...

But for when it does happen...

The layout features a Featured Show scroller on top center... sort of Hulu like. The menu is to the right of the logo at the top of the page...

There is a carousel like feature on the page that lets you scroll through shows in the order they are released during the week..

Mostly dark gray...

Sorry for the spoiler Revision3... but it did look good.

[boldfire]

Just to add fuel to this rumor fire of heat and ash...

Almost there. 4.

Is Mr. Chuckles hinting at something (http://twitter.com/chucklelate/status/1836947401)?... probably not, still fun to speculate!

Finally!

I have high hopes. Lets hope this doesn't end up a big ol disappointment like the store. *fingers crossed*

[xfuuey]

@ those two twitter posts, tomorrow being .. today?

[boldfire]

I think that is the case, yeah. Assuming of course they're talking about a new website :)

nice find! how'd you come across this?

[boldfire]

SquarespAces designer tweeted it

[klitzy]

Can't wait to see.

[chuckles]

Here you go...

[xibalba]

Here you go...

That reminds me of the old layout.

[chuckles]

That reminds me of the old layout.

Everything old is new again... :)

-chuckles-

[travislopes]

Here you go...

You better not be lying! :)
I liked that layout.

[xibalba]

Everything old is new again... :)

-chuckles-

I liked the old layout was easy to navigate.

[travislopes]

I hope there'll be a forum redesign with the new website.

[h5n1]

Hope they add download links to each show from the frontpage for easy access.

[xfuuey]

Hope they add download links to each show from the frontpage for easy access.

Although I know it won't happen, for obvious reasons, it'd be nice to have HD download links on fp :rolleyes:

Or the preference to choose what you want the default download link to be. :)

[tokenuser]

Or the preference to choose what you want the default download link to be. :)Or links to free beer coupons. :p

[chuckles]

Or links to free beer coupons. :p

I already downloaded all of those. Sorry.

-chuckles-

[samureye]

Meh, I want to see! *hits F5 repeatedly*

[ronxo]

Yep, we launched the new version of the site tonite. You can read all about it on the blog (http://revision3.com/blog/2009/05/20/welcome-to-the-new-revision3com/)...

hope you all like it

[boldfire]

Looks amazing Ron, loving the tweaked forums as well!

[samureye]

Liking the new forum look.

[sirpopey]

Righty, a lot of good. Few nitpicky problems but a lot are solved once you login as the homepage is one erratic looking thing to guests.

I like the way you've made it look less empty and that there's a lot of content, that's really good. The carousels are an awesome addition, maybe make it so once you reach the end the option to click right is still there and it takes you back to the first item? Theatre mode is great, especially the nice touch of custom backgrounds depending on what show you're watching, very good.

Only problem I have is the navigation, it should be consistent throughout the site. I think you should keep the homepage header for the entire site (navigation to the right of the logo) and not recycle the css for the drop down menus ;)

But other than that this is a huge improvement, something we've been needing for a long time now. Great job!

[cholly]

Love the new layout ! !

[boldfire]

I think the signatures should be in a different font colour, say #ccc - because if you look at them it's hard to differentiate between that and the post thread.

[xfuuey]

Hot damn they added the ability to turn off autoplay on episode pages (in preferences)! THANK YOU!!

Also, I hope they know that the Fonts/Sizes/Color drop down lists don't work in FF when posting a reply.

[cybersuchus]

It's a little hard to figure out what new episodes are available (they all seemed mashed together at the bottom of the front page), but I'll get used to it.

I like the choice of darker colours for the front page. It's much easier on the eyes. It's also nice to see that logging in to the main site, will also log me into the fora (glad to see that bug has been fixed).

And yes, disabling autoplay = godsend.

sombody on the rev3 desing team has been watching aloy of hulu.....

I agree.. this is kind of confusing right now. I hate having to scroll to find recent releases... and I wish the DOWNLOAD tab was the first selected tab when I go to the episode page.

After visiting the page, I usually just clicked the latest show, then right clicked large WMV and saved it. It takes double the amount of time, now.

I do like the new page visually, though. I'm hating the new trend in slide show banners at the top. Especially how BIG the revision3 one is. Make it look more like the one on Steam's page, and put the latest episodes under it, and I'd be happy


-- EDIT: Shit, nevermind! Apparently if you log in, it does the featured episodes right there, and the list of shows UNDER that. Wow, that's nice. I would still like the download tab selected before "SHARE"

[phatlip]

I really like the design on the site, but I think you guys missed something on the forum re-design. I think its the black background at the top throwing me off. It doesn't look right.

Everything else is looking really nice so far. I'm checking everything out now.

*EDIT*

It seems the black is other places on the site too. I think that's seriously throwing off an otherwise nice design. The black just doesn't look good.

[phatlip]

I'm looking at the black on the site some more and noticed they have a lot of black around the video. My guess is they wanted to incorporate black so they could have it around the video so that the video sort of "pops" out of the site. All eyes on me sort of thing.

Good idea, but I don't think it works well..

Grrr! This is driving me crazy. It seems like an otherwise nice design. There's a little bit of clutter here and there and the black doesn't look well, but I'm digging everything else.

[xibalba]

Nice and finally a forum change. :D

[chuckles]

Nice and finally a forum change. :D

Isn't it so sexy? I lubs it....

-chuckles-

[xibalba]

Yep it is

[xibalba]

Oh my just found autoplay disable option yay! :D

[ha1f]

why would you make it so i have to scroll to get to the shows, and then click a tab to get to the actual downloads?

i mean it's pretty and all, but i just don't get why you would make it harder for me to get to the content i want...

[klitzy]

The white text needs to be toned down a little. Other than that...awesome new website/forum.

[samureye]

Not at all, it's perfect as is.

[scoobydiesel]

I loooooove the white text.

But yeah glad to see a little update to the forums.

[guytheninja]

Not at all, it's perfect as is.

I fully agree, I like the white text.

[xibalba]

White text makes it easy to read.

[klitzy]

People have spoken, I am proven wrong. No one thinks that it is a little bright with such a dark background?

[gi_josh]

Wow, revision3 forums no longer strain my eyes to read! haha.

[xfuuey]

Is it just me, or when replying to a thread/post, you can't select the dropdown lists for Fonts/Sizes/Colors? (only tried in FF)

[xibalba]

The store going to be changed to match?

[dylangiacon]

I think i preferred the Titles of the threads in the forums aligned to the left rather than centred. Just made is easier to find what i wanted.

Other than that, looks great

[chuckles]

Is it just me, or when replying to a thread/post, you can't select the dropdown lists for Fonts/Sizes/Colors? (only tried in FF)

It is just you. We have it out for you... muahahhaha... J/K of course. It is a known bug and it is on the to do list. We will fix it soon.

-chuckles-

It is on the to do list.

I'm having this problem as well in firefox :(.

[frantic]

The site is nice.
Hopefully they continue to tweak and refine certain areas of it.

[murphy1d]

Nice job on the layout guys. I've been out of town for work and just got back to my computer. Refreshing (and terribly scary, I'm sure, for those who hate moving cheese).
