What The Hell Happened To The GamingOnLinux Design?

Going back and forth between the two themes, the dark theme doesn't work for eyes-resting purposes because there are still large, bright blocks of white: forms (and list dropdowns), the commenting textarea, the Twitter area, and quotes.

The newline between 'quote' and 'like' is superfluous, pages are sprinkled with unnecessary <br/>, and there is unnecessary whitespace around the pagination area and before the comment box. The site has that irritating bootstrap feel.

Quoting: AlzarathI like it, though I hate that whole 'excessive whitespace' thing. I'm sure there are people out there that do like that, but I don't. It reminds me of a mobile app. Maybe that's your intention, to make it easier for mobile users to browse the site. I'll probably crop it down with greasemonkey anyways.

I'm preferring the new look.
Thanks for all your dedication Liam. I don't know how you find the time with the constantly accelerating growth in Linux games releases :D

Could you not have a sticky navbar, or at least make it much less tall? I hate that it eats 8% of my usable screen.

Comment headers also now matches the navbar blue, so we don't have so many colours.

Links are now underlined inside articles to make links stand-out, it works better than a colour on the dark design.

Not having much luck with this one at the moment, startup the game, change resolution, crash, startup the game, select level one, crash, startup the game, crash & so on. It will get there just not playable for me at the moment.

Personal Messaging style has been fixed for both themes thanks for the reports.
What colour would people prefer for links to make them stand-out some more?

I hope the Moebius release today is a big success on the initial platforms, and the team gains momentum on their porting task with the resulting tide of enthusiasm :D

I wonder if they made sure it was visible on purpose? It almost felt like a nod to us Linux gamers :)

Personally I prefer white though.

I appreciate dark themes, but as others have pointed out, links are no longer distinct from regular text. Also, nothing appears to happen when I like comments.
AMD's Mantle May Still Come To Linux, Despite Other Websites Reports

AMD sucks... Mantle is a waste effort when they could just use that time to improve their driver.
I won't be buying another AMD hardware that for sure. Who needs AMD?

Looks good. I wish more websites used dark themes, it´s much better for my eyes.

Quoting: Xpanderhad texture issues: http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/3335221527286699866/D9A7196B923F3558FEB799285461FFD633C42A3A/I confirm it all running on SteamOS. Already cc in Icullus bugs.
-turns out it was the texture setting at high. works fine when set to medium
-mouse is little bit jerky (seems some sort of weird mouse smoothing or acceleration)
mouse smoothing option in menus doesnt help
-resolution is always set to 1280x1024 when i start up the game, have to change it every time
other than that seems to work pretty well, except few "loading" freezes

I really like the dark theme idea! In general the new site is looking great.
I agree with the comment above that there are too many colours though; the black and grey is great, but with the green, multiple shades of blue, off-white for quotes, etc it's a little hectic for me.
anyway, just great to see how far the site has gone; keep up the good work.

Never saw the point of mantle, and makez no difference really if we get it or not. OpenGL is fine really, AMD need to improve their driver to work with linux rather than stuck on it and better preformance will happen.

Could never, ever get into vendetta. I like my space combat ( used to work on one ) so it needs to be great cause 90% of the fun for me is the combat.
OT: Ubuntu is a great distro for coding actually, be nice if he used it for development as well as testing.

Ok it is not a realy good game.

Fonts look fine here, not sure I understand. They looks smooth from firefox android.

Quoting: MoonBeamFor me the fonts don't look great, no hinting/smoothing. Could you add "Open Sans" to the font list?

I do not get it. Why Aspyr is porting his first game to Linux? They change their mind about Linux, and now they will become another company involved in porting games to Linux? Perhaps, they port only one game to Linux and they won't do it anymore in the future. I bought some games from them, but I did not think that they will port a game to Linux. Can clarify that situation?
