Updating our Website – You Vote
Ok we have been here for over 2 years now and we thought it was about time that we updated our theme (or the layout of the site), so we have chosen 3 of the best available and since this is your website we would like you to vote for the 1 theme which you like the best from the following three.
All you need to do is click on the small images below to open a site with a demo version of the theme for you to try/look at. Once you have decided the best one which you like, please let us know by voting in the poll below.
Theme 1
Theme 2
Theme 3
P.S. Don’t worry to much about the colors on the themes as these can be changed, its more about the layout and style – Thanks.

Honestly, I like the current layout better than any of the proposed layouts. The main reason I like the current layout is there is one large middle column housing the latest posts.
The 1st design is the closest to this with a “featured” story area and then a grouping of older stories. So I voted for #1 as the least of 3 evils. 🙂
I’ll try to maintain a “wait and see” attitude and maybe the new layout will exceed my expectations. It could be useful having the grouping to make it easier to find old stories so I’ll reserve judgment until later.
My vote too would be to keep the current website, but tweak it so the current news articles are a one line link so that you could expand on that article. It would be similar to what tomshardware.com does, except, please don’t add all the insane ad pop ups.
Hi Phil
I think you should update the thumbnail image of the third theme. The current pic shows it as purple which i can understand not getting many votes, but when you click through it is in blue and looks great.
I know you left a PS saying to ignore colour but people are so easily influenced by such things.
Anayway – which ever one you go for i’m sure it will look great even if it does take a little time to get used to.
Keep up the good work.
