    Ok, so my site is relatively new. Yesterday I just barely broke the 400 sessions per 24 hours barrier...Next is the 500 sessions per day. :p

    Please let me know what you think, you can fine my arcade site at:

    The Gam3r2 Online

    So anyway, the old skin I think was the major drawback so I spent the last 6 days designing this one. In doing so I basically had to rewrite over 500 lines of code just to make everything line up.

    Now I am still working on some parts I think you all will like:

    At the top there is the "Featured Games" section which of course is blank. I am still coding the script for that space. In the next day I may just put up a quick static version. You will also see the "Featured Games" section at the bottom. These two will be different. While the top one will randomly feature a popular game with a 200x200 image and a full description, the lower "Featured Games" section will show 3 125x125 images for the popular games... at random of course, but base on hits, plays and ranking.

    I am also porting The Super Simpleâ„¢ Blog Script to fit in the lowest portion of the page. This section is not yet visible yet but it should be soon. It will end up being a full 950px wide for continuously updated content about gaming.

    I hope you all like the update and that everything is much cleaner than before. Please do not hesitate to let me know if something is not right.

    Also, currently all the images are .PNG's and I will be updating them to 256 color .GIF's soon as well, but not till after all of the scripts are complete.

    I don't know, but just seems theres too much of the blue gradient. But as for the overall theme, looks well planned, Good job!

    Its doesn't seem to work very well in IE6. text is overlapping or not showing and some images are not displaying. Its very slowing to open as well.

    I hate Windows and its inability to ever want to become compatible with everyone else and instead they always go off on their own way.

    Firefox on the top... 100% no problems...

    IE6 on the bottom and not one div was recognized in its right placement even though the template strictly adheres to css standards. Hmm.. go figure.

    IE does not even display the transparent values of the images and instead makes 6 days of wasted development.

    On top of all that, the IE6 also called a couple server-side scripts that when turned off. The little missing image box is only supposed to be visible when you are are logged in as admin.

    Well back to work... but first I have to revert the templates.
