Nice idea Sam!

But just a couple of points:

1) The top menu bar now wraps around on my web browser (Firefox 2.0)
2) For some reason, the images on the homepage are no longer aligned correctly

I bet the Java app won't run Blurp correctly :D

Edit: there's only wrap-around on certain pages, e.g. the forums.

Have you done a Ctrl+F5 or Shift+F5 refresh to reload the stylesheet in your browser?

And, no, it's not perfect - sound especially. But it's enough to show off some early demos - esp. of the text adventures, which is all we have released so far.

Ahhh, Ctrl F5 fixed problem 1, but problem 2 still remains...

I wonder if it would look better if the menu was deliberately wrapped into two rows? It's starting to get a bit ...long now!

I've tinkered with the homepage - but it's the nature of wikis that you can't always get the images pixel-perfect. Feel free to go and fiddle yourself to see if you can improve it - it is a wiki after all! It may look slightly better when we stick the Mountain Panic video on there, a new version of which I'm reliably informed is due sometime this week.

I don't think we'll be adding anything else to the menu bar from hereonin but I agree, if we do, we'll need to do something a bit more drastic.

Not working for me. Doesn't update screen when I press keys but if I drag another window across it it will update. Just installing latest java to see if that solves problem.

Working ok now.

After further reflection and feedback, I've reduced the size of the menu bar some more so you'll all need to reload the stylesheets again. ;)
