A Sneak Preview of ThrillNetwork 2.0

OK guys, I have decided to post the first of a preview of the new and *VERY* improved ThrillNetwork. So without further adieu, here goes...

Only a few more weeks....

How long has this thing been in Phase One? Since it opened. How long ago did this site open? Several months. What took so long?

IMO the site looks a lot better. Reason: [COLOR=darkblue]C[/COLOR] [COLOR=orangered]O[/COLOR] [COLOR=red]L[/COLOR] [COLOR=teal]O[/COLOR] [COLOR=purple]R[/COLOR] [COLOR=green]![/COLOR]
The current site is so boring! It needed some more color added to it. Good job!

Looks pretty good. Better than phase one which is gonna be a year old before we know it ;) The color scheme really does it with TN 2.0. It looks pretty good, but I gotta see it up close an personal. One more thing: I love the name of the image (youcantwaitcanyou.jpg). Hilarious!

I have 800X600 resolution, and it fits on my screen just fine.

Well, the black looks nice, but what I am really looking for is new / better content and layout. Color doesn't make or break a site.

It's the 23rd century futuristic look. I like it.

You're joking, right? The screenshot above may as well be black and white. Not that I'm complaining, but you're very wrong.

Keep in mind that the site is subject to changes (for the better of course). Thats the reason for the preview, so i can get your opinions and work upon them!:)

All I ask is you make sure there is enough contrast between the background and the lettering. These old eyes have a REALLY hard time reading now, even with bi-focals
