Hello everyone, I've just opened up this new arcade, it uses gss 4.0 and I also have the highscore addon installed. As for the theme, the site uses Stylish 1.2 which was designd by Twilight, had to make it work with the highscore addon but I got through eventually. Hope you share your thought, I would like to make improvements, and I appreciate constructive criticism.
Also, I am open for link exchanges. sp if you're interested, just submit your link using the form and I'll add you in 24 hours. Top 25 referrers are sitewide, amd I only use hardlinks, so you get over 4000 backlinks instantly. And yes, I know it's still a PR0, but I'm putting a lot of efort into the site so it will get a good PR once the next update comes. Anyway, here are my link details: Title: Play Games URL: http://playtopgames.org If you add my link to your site and/or add yours to mine, pm me or post here so i can check things out and approve the links. THanks for reading and bearing with me. Hope to hear your thoughts. Cheers and have a nice day. |

well, i thought about putting the logo horizontally, but it would have a hard time fitting because the text is quite long, i could use a smaller font, but it would still mess up the width of the site a little, because i tested it out. In the right menu i'll be adding topsites and button exchanges.

yes I agree. Instead of having to get new thumbnails for every game, you can just change the size of the thumbnails and make them smaller.

It seems like your high score add-on is still having some problems. When I click on "VIEW SCORES", I get a lot of errors. If you do figure this out, I may need your help
My team and I also have a site that uses this theme/script and we can't figure out the add-on problem.

thanks for pointing out the error. i had to mod this theme for the highscore addon because it wasn't compatible. it seems that i have overlooked this glitch. i tried resizing the thumbs from the gss admin panel, but it didn't work, it might have something to do with the theme, but i'll have to talk to twilight about it.

It seems that every gss arcade is starting to use this Stylish 1.2 theme. I seem to see it every where and why not its a good theme. Maybe if you could tweak the colors a bit to give it your own stamp.
Also I would get rid of that welcome note, its cheesy and wasted space. You could put another ad there instead as this is the first thing users see when that land on your home page. http://www.twilightgamer.com site seems to be down, so top left banner is not working, this is probably a temp thing. |

So, I've fixed the highscore problem, now everything works fin when you click View All, no errors. I've also managed to change the thumbnail size, so they're not blurry anymore. This was quite tricky, because the size couldn't be changed globally from the gss admin panel, and i had to change it for every box.
As for the welcome text, i keep it there for seo purposes, it contains the main keywords, and it's what spiders will see first. I could add an advertisement there, but i feel the page would look too crowded with ads, and I don't have much traffic yet, the site is only one week old. If i have time, i might try to change the color scheme, or i'll just wait for stylish 1.7 to come out because it will have new colours. I hope that it comes out with highscores integrated, because it took me quite a lot of time to tweak it, and i'm not even that good with php, i got through by trial and error. Anyway, thanks everyone for the feedback, and I would like to hear any other suggestions you might have. PS: still waiting for link exchanges. |
