Don't think we need so many web designers. heh Posted Image

• updated the site with the Ares-style interface.
• Moved forums from YaBB SE to Invision Board due to a very odd bug in YaBB
• Updated sidebar links, you can now look at my strategy guide in the multiplayer strategy section Posted Image

I wonder what that login button is for...heh.

Plans for tonight(12:45 am and counting Posted Image )
• see if i can find a less happy theme for the BB...lol
• see about moving content over from the prototype Axis site
• get a bit of margins on the text area to prevent IE5 from displaying a horizontal scroll bar.
• spam the reviewers with 1400 emails apiece so that they'll give me content(just kidding on this one...I think Posted Image )
• Try and figure out why pages display in different size fonts even though theres a .css Posted Image

What we really need for the site is not more reviewers(heh) but:
•someone to take Ask Slug I/II/III and changed it into a text Q&A archive( I'll handle adding anchors to each question and stuff)
•someone to write some stuff about Hera before I'm forced to look at hera_reference.html again and write one myself o.O( An article on multiconditionals with screenshots would be nice)

A couple suggestions:
The battle reports you were thinking about sound like a good idea. I said this on GR, but I'm restating it here for the heck of it.
Also, I think that for forums, it should just link to here, as we don't really need two extra Ares forums when we've already got three more than we need.

Oh, and beat the reviewers into getting you reviews, and I'll make some sort of column either tomorrow or the day after (have a good amount of stuff to be doing tomorrow).

Hey Patrick I'd love to write an article for the site about the quirks and little-known gems of Ares.I'll send it to you this weekend (right before I'm off to college!!).

Hmm, reviews.

What are your expectations? Are there any expectations to writing reviews?

hmm. up to the reviewer I suppose. 2-3 paragraphs? take a look at the CT preview on the site, reviews should be a bit longer than that.
