Ah, Its Nicer! But my simple Q~ is when where inside the Forum,where is the button to go back to the Main page of the site?
Or could we just push the big Letters/Words above.

You can click the NFSADDONS in the logo, and that'll take you back there. I'll add a link to the forum nav, too

It looks nice now, but at first it was a bit confusing (the main page)

I think he was talking about how, the Tracks,Cars, Upload Tab, was all on the Left side before.
And now it's all above and and on the right side now.
It Kinda made me ah, little confused at first also.
New things can be a Good thing, some times :cool:

Yeah, that's what I was talking about Will, thanks.
It take a while to find the forum tab for example, but it doesn't happen anymore. Don't worry Mike, the new design looks great. :bigthumb:
Oh, and I prefer those nfshs banners than the ones from Carbon. They are way more representative of what you can find here.

Yeah, had to re-do the nav a little bit.. it'll probably change whenever the next version comes out, sinceI won't have much room left :p

Need to populate the content for the older versions, too. And also need to get some new header images in there for rotation :)

Appreciate the offer. Not a big fan of animated gifs really. And by rotating headers, I meant everytime you refresh the page, like it was before.  :)

Looks nice, loads a little slow on dial-up but that's expected of anything, right. btw who's GT is that in the banner?

looks good Mike.
there are many things i like about the new design and i also have some comments/considerations:
-one thing I'm not so big on is having the main news/text section offset to accommodate the unified sidebar on the right, I'd rather it be in the middle.
-Maybe a larger, more eye catching downloads section link like the new upload or forum buttons, in addition to the small text links, would help new visitors find what they're looking for easier.
-possibly move the header to the top of the page rather than being under the ads.

just some things to think about. Thanks for doing all this work Mike, The site keeps looking better and better.

Thanks for the comments and suggestions. I'll definitely consider them. What colour would you like for a Downloads button on the right? I'll let you pick it ;)

I remember liking your site designs a couple years ago that had a lot of tan/earth tone colours with the classic blue background. So I'll suggest a tan coloured button.
If not, then blue/purple should agree with the current design.:)

Not sure how tan will look on the right menu, but I'll try it out. If not, blue/purple it is :)
