Re: New website design!!!

I think it is much more pleasing to the eye. I'm currently checking things out and seeing how things look throughout. I will say that the first time loading the new page I got an error saying something about IBM's websphere. But a reload of the page seemed to fix it. If it happens again, I will report it.


Coleslaw,

The error you saw was probably during one of the server updates. We shut down one server, update it, then restart it. Then we do the same thing to the next server, and so on...

Hope you all enjoy the new website design...more info on the changes deployed coming to the News section soon...

Here is more information about the website redesign.

Thank you all for your support!

Hi ErikaT,

I opened with another browser and all the pictures were right. Just need to clean the cache on my regular one.

Thanks!

Re: New website design!!!

It's just a pity it's not complemented with updated forum software. sad

Hear, hear - I definitely second that.

Can't say I'm wild about the design though. I like that the C and G in WCG seem to be respresented, but I'm not seeing a W. Although maybe the C and G are accidental (or I'm hallucinating - hard to tell wink )

Normally brands try to evolve their logos rather than redesigning them completely - so that they're still recognizable but more modern. This seems to be a step in the opposite direction.

Just out of curiosity, where did this one come from - apologies if this information is already available someplace. If so, I haven't noticed it.

Re: New website design!!!

On the page "My Contribution: Results Status" the column headings appear much as they used to, specifically "Time Due / Return Time" (with "Time Due" in italics). However, the data in the rows below correctly shows Return Time in the normal font, but Time Due is shown in a larger font, not an italic font.

I'm viewing this in Firefox 28.0, if it matters.

Re: New website design!!!

The Workunit Status popout is a mess. It has the old logotype and no colour, it's not even the same as it was.

[Edit:] The Result Log is the same.

Re: New website design!!!

More on Results Status (but this is comments, not errors):

I had forgotten that clicking on the column headings changed the sort order. I clicked on one expecting to get a definition of the terms used, not a re-sort.

This tells me (1) it would be good to be able to get such a definition (infopops might be one way) and (2) some visual indication of sort order (an arrowhead after the heading?) might be helpful.

Just me thinking aloud.

Re: New website design!!!

Hmm, i cant seem to find any way of looking at global statistics or stats by teams? I like to look and see how the top teams are doing but can only look at my own statistics and team.

Just take a while to get used to though, after we had the old site for so many years! ;)
