The new 45royale launches today as part of CSS Reboot

MD 110106  /  7 comments

Here we are, another 6 months later and the Fall CSS Reboot is upon us. We love this event because it challenges us to think about our design and re-work existing areas and try to make them better. Last Reboot was a bit of a departure with tons of new features and functionality. This time around, we have solidified our design and have gone with what we feel is a very clean, manageable layout that works well with our content.

Gone are the days of 800×600 as we have officially made the jump to wide-screen. We’ve also updated our Work area with some spiffy flash stuff and better content. There are a few other cool things lurking around, hopefully you’ll stay a while and check them out!

Please look around and let us know what you think. As always, your comments are always welcome. We can’t wait to check out all of this year’s wonderful Reboots!

  1. Hey 45royale – great design! Love it.

  2. Looks great, very clean.

  3. Nice job on the reboot. Clean!

  4. Very nice reboot! Nice to see people who keep joining the reboot every 6 months :)

    Nice logo as well, although it gives me a feeling that it’s not entirely done. I keep getting the feeling that it either lacks a little shadow on each layer, or a little gradient on the layers. It reminds me of an onion… and an onion has layers (not as in Shrek’s layers) and it has something “imperfect” about it that makes it “alive”. I think that your logo lacks that at the moment.

    But it IS a good logo though ;)

  5. Hey all, thanks for taking the time to drop by and let us know how you feel about the design. We had a lot of fun coming up with it and building it and we appreciate that you all like it!

    There are more things to come, such as updates to the Notebook section so check back soon for those changes.

    Thanks again, it really means a lot!

  6. So, why was I on the Flock design team again? You could have done it all yourself!

    Great reboot. Everything just fits, and that’s what matters.

    Really nice design in a lot of ways but seeing the comments you already know that.

    I always start looking around nice designed websites for inspiration or just for fun. I noticed that the search results page is really bad. Don’t know if you forgot to design it or working on it at the moment.

    Just wanted to let you know :)
