New Website Layout

Hey everyone :) I'm posting a preview of the new website layout for everyone to see ^^

Before actually implementing it, though, I'd like to fix any layout bugs while it's still a template, rather than 500 pages. So if you could please take a look at it and let me know if anything looks really funky, I'd really appreciate it ^^

Oh, and screenshots really really help, so please include them if you can ^^

I've already tested it in a few browsers, so I'm hoping that it won't have any bugs, but I'm going by the "better safe than sorry" rule this time ^^

Here's the link:

*EDIT*

Forgot to say that none of the links, aside from the Roleplay one, are currently supposed to be working, so no worries about that ^^ The search is also currently untested, but I've been told it works, bringing you to the old layout.

Oh. Dear. Sweet. Goddess. You.. That... Wow is that ever amazing.

*picks jaw offa floor with an embarrassed lil cough* I looked through it all, the search link does work and bring you to the old layout like it's supposed to, the "extras" area was a really clever way of cutting down on the number of links to give things a streamlined look, and the overall design is a very beautiful and pleasant surprise.

The wording is new, I did notice that, and rather nicely written. Prophet's big ears and hair length makes him look younger than the other one up there with the longer tail, I think that's awesomely amusing. ^_^; Adore those wings, by the way.

That's pretty much all I've noted/noticed, myself. That, and the roleplay link works like it's supposed to, as mentioned. Good luck with it all, it must be loads of work.

Everything works beautifully Foxx, as far as I can see (layout wise I mean). The homepage is absolutely wonderful. I'm in agreement with Songhue. lol. I love Prophet's recolour and the other Serian... well, you know I'm a sucker for Serians with wings. XD Amazing job! I can't think of anything that needs fixing. :)

It looks beautiful Foxx, and the illulstrations are gorgeous as ever :D

It might be just my browser, but when I roll over the links up top and they popout the other set of links on the bottom, sometime the previous links don't clear and the others appear over them ^^;; Hope that wasn't too confusing a way to word that xD

I'm dying of curiosity over that winged serian, btw :P

It may just be the browser. I tested it in FF and there was no jamming or doubling for me, at least. ^_^;; Double checked it in IE as well, to be safe. Maybe it's a slow/faulty connection?

I'm in IE, but I think I figured it out. If I click on the top link, the bottom links stay and then when I roll over another top link that's when the override appears. Just rolling over them seems fine.
