Made a Few Changes

Thank you! I'm glad people seem to be liking it, it is a definite improvement on any navbar we've had in months

*Points out the buttons in every post, the black shiny logo etc*

You sir, are wrong. Just sayin.

The Nav Bar Buttons, aren't the same Design, as the others.

Of course not, they can't be exactly the same, they're the dominant graphical button in the design. The smaller ones are like subsidiaries if you will of the larger design. Note the similarities here:



-Black border that is beveled with a white gradient to enhance the shine
-Interior box embossed that has the button text within



-Black border that is beveled with a white gradient to enhance the shine
-Interior box embossed that has the button text within

Now the differences:
-Font is different, however the navbar font is the same as the secondary font in the FT logo which is more appropriate given its location under the logo (2 font design rule)

-Interior embossed box is a dark blue into black gradient as opposed to just black. The dominant highlight colour on the forum is blue therefor tying the highlight colour into one of the primary graphical elements of the board


Any questions class?

Why was there any need to design an new Button/icon/ w/e.

I must also be the only person who preferred the old Nav Bar.

Yes, you must be cause I don't think anyone else liked it. It just looked...lazy and uninspired. I actually meant to redesign it shortly after designing the original but never got around to it until now

Well it went more with the Skin, that the New ones dose.

It had an nice Simplistic feel to it, nothing over the top or To "Tech-y"

It was boring. But nuff said, I like the new one, everyone else likes the new one so it's keeping
