I must admit I thought it looked good the first time I went on, but when I went on again I wasn't so keen. Prefer it this way myself.

Looks pretty, but yeah I think the menu would be better on the left

I think it could still be improved, and everything should be more easily accessible, because at the moment it seems too complex and the layout could also be improved!

It needs minor adjustments, but overall it's a step in the right direction IMO. The sites need a new look and a couple of people moaning about it won't get it back. Just people don't like change, that's all it is.

I like the colours, rekon the layout should stay similar to as it is though.

I know I'm not moaning about it, just saying I prefer the current lay-out to the one on pool. Also, it isn't because I 'don't like change', it's because I think that I think the way it is at the minute looks better than the way that Funkypool looks.

To be fair, my comment was referring to the person above my last post more than anyone.

To be fair it's pretty poor it looks like it has being knocked up in Frontpage IMO, just took 10 mins and no effort has gone into it.

I noticed the drop down box for Name and Rankings I like that idea.

Hopefully he puts more ideas and effort into a new one on FunkySnooker we all no he can do it look how great game play has just maybe he has ran out of Creativity...?

*snipped spam* Talk to these guys good mates of mine and great designers if anybody want a professional looking webpage

i think it looks to happy and bouncy, i find it hard to take it seriously.

i think over here looks more professional.

some of the ideas like the drop-down menus and the help page are good but overall i dont like the look of it

It's not happy on any level, you go to any games website:

The big names:

www.zone.com - Professional
www.yahoo.com - Professional

Other websites:

www.runescape.com - Professional
www.miniclip.com - High Standard

Then you got the minimal standards for a website

www.wgcenter.com - Really Average

Below Average:

www.funkypool.com - Just looks tacky and a Frontpage job!

If you go to each of them sites you will see where I am coming from.

Well for stupid people like myself...i find it really difficult to navigate!

Also for old people on this site *I wont name them* but they might struggle too?

Snook's fixing something that isnt broken again..

Firstly, i never understand that comment? Why wait for something to 'break' before it is fixed? Surely keeping ahead of the game is much better?

Secondly, i don't like the update much. I find what we have now MUCH easier to navigate around and it just looks so much better. But i'm sure, like with all the other updates, we will get used to it. Remember the uproar when the new cursor was brought in and the angles seemed to change?! Don't hear any complaints about it now, same with the ranking system. . . Like it or not, it will come here and i fully expect that there will be no complaints about it after we have had it for a month or so. Most people don't like change, im one of them. But nick knows a hell of a lot more about this stuff than probably most people on here so it is no doubt for the best.

id agree that an update of the site looks etc wouldnt be such a bad idea and am not against the principle idea but as simon says, i would like it to be a better update than the one on pool
