Maybe just stick to redesigning the header? Else what with all this button matching and pairing the whole site layout is going to need to be changed, or are we game for that too?

DU wanted the buttons to be more readable.
Shouldn't require a full makeover.

Here's something I made based on the forum buttons:

EDIT: for some reason they resize or something. I'll post a few individually and see if they show properly.

Nope. Well right-click show picture for real size.

Just as an example.

EDIT2: what's up there in the banner right now looks like ass TBH.

Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Keep the old buttons. They're good as they are. The new banner is awesome, but keep the rest of the design. Fits together well enough and looks good.

Your ignore list.
I bet this faggotry in here is because DU got a boner from the new STEAM layout and he thinks he can do something similar. Which he is, since the new steam layout is a piece of shit.

Dirty version. Modders will fix it...
Replace the "-----" in the header with the same lines that separate the subforums. Use the same font as in subforum names for members, usergroups, profile and so on. And rearrange the the faq, search, members and so on so they are beneath each others, evenly spaced out.

slogan is amusingly ironic in the current layout incarnation.

in regards to the die, two sixes are not the only thing wrong with it - at least on common dies, "one" is always on the opposite side of "six", not next to it.
personally, i´d probably ditch the die altogether though because the "oldschool? more like retarded amirite" vibe i´m getting from the current layout is mainly due to it.

the slogan itself is very fitting methinks.

edit: Big Nose George´s version above is nice.

This one is good, the other menu buttons and header replacements are rather meh. The "Doesen't scale to your level" slogan change is good, too.

I think it's pretty well known, but opposite sides of a die should always add up to seven.

are the games and companies sections of the site going to get a facelift? "Disco inferno of RPG sites"? Plus weirdo template to boot.
