Major Upgrade Complete - Welcome to the new and improved AngelsWin.com

[Chuck]

Our logo needs to be fixed as it's only showing on the certain pages but not all. There's some website caching that needs to be completed still as well.

Some other minor graphical web design stuff too, but the meat of the upgrade is done. 

You should see those minor fixes completed tomorrow. 

Thank you for your patience.

Nice work! Good to see  Twitter links aren't narrow anymore

Yeah that really bugged me.

Wait... what? 

I thought we weren't allowed to have nice things...

Looks great. Less filling.

I set it to 95% to give it a little margin on each side. 

How do you do this?

Wait a minute. You guys sit at a desk to read the site? 

How very 90's of you.

Of course we do, you silly guy. If not, how else would we connect to our modems?

@Angel should love this new look. no more of the whimpy kumbaya angelswin. now it's the tough angelswin with a black banner. time for other message boards to take note, we're serious now!

I'm getting used to the dark red and gray logo on the black background (don't necessarily like it) but do we need so many large black rectangles to head each topic section? The layout is a bit loud and hard on the eyes.

@Chuckster70 I have one beef... and it's a big one...

Even with all these upgrades this forum isn't troll proof.

The Angels needed pitching and signed Rendon. AW needed to get rid of the trolls and instead you put lipstick on them.

Also... just curious - do you own a yacht? Do you really live in Seattle? Not Tucson? Asking for @Tank

Aye, the ignore button is your friend! 

The good thing about having longtime members that challenge everything you say, play devils advocate or at times troll is that it creates conversation, even if it's at times frustrating. 

If we all sat in a circle, held hands and were in one accord with each other on every topic it would get pretty boring after a while.

Challenge the status quo!

Don't let the man keep you down!

Looking good Chuck!

I think it's much softer on the eyes actually. 

I'm not following you with regards to the black rectangles for each topic section.

Chuck, the margins on the iPhone are perfect, on the iPad they are too wide.  Not sure why.  

Also as far as trolls go, trolls are exactly that Chuck, trolls.  They don’t come here for conversation, they come here to be disruptive.  So no, it isn’t as simple as ignoring them.  If they added value, then sure, differing opinions is fine.  But that isn’t what trolls do.

I'll test on my iPad today and see what I can do.

Looks really good - thanks for the continued great work, Chuck.

Check now and let me know. 

For those who have ads and are not a premium member the banner ads may increase the spacing to the right side of your screen to allow for the entire ad to display on an iPad only, but looks great on Desktop and is responsive on all mobile phone devices.

On the main screen the margins are great now.  Inside of threads, I just have to get used to the ”text” box being only 2/3’s of the screen instead of typing across the entire screen.  

I love the update Chuck.

The Portrait view on the tablet looks so good, I may never go back to the landscape setting.

Yeah I tried that too. The landscape view on the iPad reverts to the desktop version while the portrait view uses the mobile version of the website.

Was just wondering what it would look like with a navy/gold theme. We probably haven't earned the gold yet, lol.

We need an alternate jersey color scheme thread.
