# Today has been shit, and I've done this:
I have redesigned b3ta. I quite like the way it is now, so it's only a few functional changes and some design/theme changes. Firstly, to give you an idea of what I've done, here's the new-look homepage (all images are linked, as they're HUGE):

Clicky

Then there's the way the new boards avoid all that scrolling:

Threads Closed You'd click on those triangles on the side to expand the thread. Then they'd look like this:

Thread Opened You would click on the triangle again to collapse the view back to how it looks above.

I've always fancied having a go at a redesign, and I quite like this. Please note I have nothing to do with the actual admin of b3ta, and I'm not suggesting it *should* be changed. It's just there's always been talk from a few posters about the current style of b3ta, and I thought I'd address some of the issues without going all Web 2.0 crazy. Really, this is just to get some idea of what most people would like b3ta to be, even though I am not in control of what goes on here. Please don't take this too seriously, and don't yell at me if you don't like it, as I'm actually quite depressed today, and I don't need it. Comment away.

No too sure about the blue. I'm kind of used to B3ta in the neutral grey.

I like the show/hide replys thing. Although personally I would have the arrow that you click in the place of the paper icon of the current posts. You could have it go red when there are new replys that you haven't seen that are hidden. This would also work nicely on the QOTW where you would be able to see the repys without opening a new tab or window.

The extra boards are an interesing idea. It probably wouldn't stop people shouting at others for posting the wrong kind of stuff on the board though... Still, I like it.

# I wanted the separate Art/Humour boards
So Mofaha, Killer Kitti, Tsattssr, Walrus Man, etc. who all post arty things most of the time can have their own area, and likewise for those that post humorous images. Not because I want segregation, but so that when someone posts some nice art thing on a Weds evening, it doesn't disappear in seconds. This way, the board's talents are still catered for, and everything has a better chance of being seen. It works with the open/close threads too, as conversations are not so limited by time as they are now. People tend to stop posting in a thread after 4 new ones are created.

With the opened/closed threads.. I see a mixed blessing.

Some of my favourite pictures are those which the authors have deemed "not worth its own thread", and I might lose some of those.

But, of course, there are good points to it, too, such as the decrease in required scrolling.

At work, I find the grey useful because, to the untrained eye, it looks pretty mundane and a little work-ish. Bright blue seems to shout out "LOOK AT ME, FOR I AM NOT WORK RELATED!", and bosses might notice that.

The colours need to be MUCH more subtle. The blue/dark blue replies need to be similar colours as those stripes just hurt the eyes. Imagine scrolling down that page! The tabs, should you insist on them (I don't like the idea, personally) should be close together and use something other than a cheap gradient. Furthermore I do NOT like the idea of open and closed threads. It'll just isolate people who aren't in a certain 'friends group'. What about humourous image replies also? Yeah, the main picture may not take your fancy, but what fantastic japery may be hidden in the thread? What the SHITTING FUCK is 'art' and 'humour' boards. No. Just... No.

Whilst you have created something, ultimately you have used a form which is equatable to Conceptual art, somewhat acceptable, but ultimately a tad cliche and irritating, yet popular to survive elsewhere. Please don't do this to garner attention because that really isn't what this place is about. Whilst you may want some, and I accept that, it's not necessarily the right board to try that.
9 months and you should surely be aware of some sort of supposed antagonism when this board is met with large posts that carry a sort of style that has been seen far too many times.

# LOL
Some friends of mine gave me a cactus as a housewarming present many years ago. Cute little thing in a pot about 4" cube. No one had ever told me about how to grow cactii so I figured hey, they grow in the desert so don't need water, right? So I never watered it. It got to about a foot high then sort of tapered off; about 1" diameter at the main part and a tapering tip like a condom.

A couple of years later I move back in with the folks (as you do when your visa card spirals out of control) and mum takes a look at this cactus of mine and asks "haven't you been watering that?" "No, I says. it's a cactus!" "uh... " she groaned and took it off me. She then repotted it in a large pot and gave it a little water every now and then. Now the damn thing is 3 feet tall, is about 1" diameter for a foot, then tapers to 1/2" for about 1" height then blows out to about 2" diameter and has grown another 2 feet! Strangest looking cactus you've ever seen. Needs to be staked up of course since it's so top heavy :)
