Happy New Year keep fragging  

hello there and welcome to the forum ;)

Hope to see you ingame!

^^^ thanks bro you too.

You're shure not The laziest visionary on earth.
Because "lazy visionary" is the definition of "pot-smoker"
And I bet I know some of them myself who are quadruple as lazy as you :D

happy new yearsl. btw :)

Hmm, "lazy visonary"? the pot-heads I know are only "obnoxious dumbasses"

it all depends on education

Yes it has been mentioned. No I do not agree with it. The old one was 100times better. This looks like "my little pony", only they replaced the pink by blue.

I especially like at 1:12. Better in HD.

I better like Happy Tree Friends (http://youtube.com/watch?v=opAinuVvKfw) and Teeworlds (http://teeworlds.com/) than My Little Pony and Pink Pony. I think OA could follow the line, being kawai and bloody at the same time. Did you notice that almost all Q3 models have blood on their hands and feet and OA none? So it has a kawai, modernish, futuristic, clean and (with the new GUI) blue theme, or at least I had that in mind when I painted the site this color. The most funny thing is, that almost the same reaction was posted on Clients from Hell (http://clientsfromhell.tumblr.com/post/310239398/i-said-make-it-blue-not-baby-blue) some days before :).

Well... among all the things I always say... it's impossible to make everyone happy.

Yeah and I really like the Bill Cosby Quote in your signature
and it applies to internet-forums especially.

The color theme is arguable but i like that all the site is now under constraints
before it was like hell was breaking loose :)

//edit:
onoez cute little pony gone dead in water
why did you post such a cruel video.. you ruined my day.

Actually it is possible: you can change the theme to the old style in your accountsettings ^^

@Udi
No depreciation of your work intended, your theme is similar to the one Mathieu made for openarena.tuxfamily (http://openarena.tuxfamily.org/), and I won't say it's bad ;) I'm not a pro for critics but I'm not a big fan of the dominant color, lateral bars look a bit like candy, and maybe I would have prefered another motif than these horizontal lines on the header (on the home part, on the forum there are informations written on it), for expl the footer looks better. Anyway it's a big step forward for the website and not an easy job.

As for pony, the magic of these games is they don't die, but magically disappear instead ;)

No offence taken, and now I know exactly what you don't like in the design, the pony thing was hard to guess. I will finish the first small package of missing textures in January and after that I will review the design.
