Sweet!

Hi Construct team,

I hope you can get the website working as smoothly as possible.

Already I have found an error in the forum. Quotes written with the old BB system, for example, posts in this thread: 84.45.57.142/forum/post-screenshots-of-what-youre-working-on_topic36193.html just display the formatting header and footer text rather than actually create a quote block. Maybe you'll need to make a migration script and run it on all forum posts to fix the issue. I don't know.

Best of luck,

Awesome

Nice integration between the forum and website!

Some impressions/suggestions:

-the text font (specially in the forums) seems too big and get a little uncomfortable to read;

-the page's content container seems a bit too narrow. As the most common resolution nowadays is 1024x768 or higher, I think it could be at least 900px wide to optimize screen space;

-if implemented the above suggestion I recommend enlarging a bit the lateral padding area as well to let the content breathe a little more;

-in the topics table would be nice to give odd rows a slightly distinct color to improve readability and association among the information on other columns;

-it would be nice to slice big tutorials into multiple pages. Maybe a system similar to instructables.com where you can separate into steps, visualize them individually or all at the same time.

This is more a matter of personal taste, but I particularly don't like the two tones of green together as to me they give a too eco-business identity. I think a gray would suit better instead of the dark green, and also be more techy.

quick edit: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7871870/construct/scirra_website_01.jpg

Although I think would be even better if the header called a little more attention to it:

Use them as you wish.

<div id="swiffout"></div>i agree the white header is too white.

also, there's no miniicon for the url and tabs

this is probably a transitional thing, but i and others(some moreso than others depending on region I suppose) are still getting the old site and forum sometimes, when using the same urls  we use to get this one

the aforementioned bbcode thing.  old bbcode doesn't work

damn...there was a more major bug I wanted to report but can't remember now

also, random errors where it goes to an error code screen sometimes when attempting to login

and SIGS!!! we need SIGS!!!

There was a error with logins, should be fixed now!  Will read all comments and get everything smoothed over asap :)

<div id="swiffout"></div>k remembered some of the stuff

first, the miniicon Does work for scirra.com, but not for the forum

scirra.com/forum goes to the old forum with the maintenance message, until you click board index.

 they were working before, but now it says "topic" or "forum" in ugly overlapping text, instead of showing the icons next to each topic and forum

the url doesn't say scirra.com when on forums, it shows the ip-address/forum

also, no edit button I can find, and no report button, and there's already been new unreportable spam

also, the new tube tag you mentioned one time isn't present

Thanks Lucid,<div>

</div><div>By mini icon you mean fav icon right?</div><div>The old site appearing is going to be a domain propogation issue, it should sort itself out over the next few days.</div><div>Try clearing your cache, and doing a hard refresh, it should resolve a lot of display issues (otherwise could you do a screenshot?)</div><div>IP address issue is now resolved, if it continues it's like a DNS propogation problem, give it a few hours it should sort out</div><div>Click post options for edit options, the popup appear to the right too far, I'll fix this soon</div><div>

</div>

You tube will now work, good spot!

Awesome, can you login to your old account now?

Favicon should now work on forum.

<div id="swiffout"></div>no problem tom, and meant to say

off to a good start regardless of hiccups

just cleared cache(now clicking on board index doesn't work, have to use the ipaddress to get here)

this is what I meant, these icons:

<img src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1013446/websitestuff.JPG" border="0" />

<img src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1013446/othersitestuff.JPG" border="0" />

also, the post options thing had an icon at first and now it's not displaying either

and maybe a link to gravatar in the profile options would be cool

I had no idea I could set my avatar until newt told me in chat

<div id="swiffout"></div>oh, also it doesn't notify me there's been additional posts while I was typing :)

this is my old account, it just stopped working for a while before I had posted.

favicons working now

also...gotta test  this [tube] thing<div>

[tube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTPqjKk_xCo[/tube]

edit :oh yeah...no link to chat in the forum bar either

edit2:weird...tube link was working a minute ago, now it's just blank

<div id="swiffout"></div>

<div id="swiffout"></div>

<div id="swiffout"></div>

</div>

I can't login with either my alspal or alastair account.

alastair, sorry to hear this, if it doesn't work by tommorow (it might be some strange DNS caching thing going on still for some users) I will investigate a further.
