Popey456963 17 Posted July 27, 2016 (edited) Recently, upon visiting http://www.outbreak-community.com, I have been met with a landing page. Whilst this was all fine to start off with, it soon got tiresome. I've tried to improve the page (adding some JavaScript, setting the title to not be the default) to sort this out. Once you press the proceed button once, it'll never keep you on the page again unless you add ?ignore=1 to the URL. You can see the website in action: http://fastdl.sinisterheavens.com/ob/landing-page/index.html Or download it from: http://fastdl.sinisterheavens.com/ob/landing-page.zip Interested to see what your opinions are going to be.

I quite like this front page but this and the current one seem a little "out of bland" (if you get what I mean ^.^) We could do with something that shows what OB is on the front page, not just a "splash page". THUK have something like this to show what the community is, but we could come up with something 100x better than that. Good work however :D Quote Share this post Link to post

Alas, I do not have the content to populate such a page to be useful. It simply tries to ease the strain of clicking a button each time. 1 MrGibbyGibson reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post

However, when I type "out" into my omnibar, it defaults to outbreak-community.com, and typing /forums would probably take longer than clicking a single button. If people don't want it, we don't have to use it though :3. Quote Share this post Link to post
Four20 72 Posted July 28, 2016 Ahh when I type "out" it auto completes http://www.outbreak-community.com/forums Quote Share this post Link to post

I guess I see the issue =) Quote Share this post Link to post
