Dev Team: The PokéCommunity UI Update

[Altius]

The new UI is incredible! I'm willing to ditch the old themes for it.

Hoping that the rollout will be smooth.

 

[Taemin]

I'm just now seeing this for some reason, but the hype is real. *^*

 

[Yuoaman]

Looking great, but how will this updated UI run on Netscape?

 

[curiousnathan]

This is fantastic!

Looking great, but how will this updated UI run on Netscape?

I'm going to have to break out my Windows ME virtual machine.

Either that or a machine capable of running Mac OS 9.x. :P

You'll be able to use PC Retro, which will load all of the old vBulletin templates instead of the new design. It'll miss out on a lot of cool new features, though.

Ah, OK. Thanks for clarifying. Does this mean that if we had made a theme for PC Retro and wanted it on the new PC, we would have to remake it for the new layout?

 

[Kip]

PC Retro will be made available for transitioning. In the long-term it's on the way out.

Oh, OK. Can I ask why, out of interest? Also, will there be enough time for theme makers to make the transition if they wanted to? PC has almost 70 themes to choose from after all (not including variations), and it'd be a shame to lose all of that. :P

 

[Salzorrah]

Also, will there be some sort of new guide or code or something to help create new styles for the UI?

 

[Akiba]

Good times.

Assuming the Mac OS 9 user is running IE5.1, here's something that doesn't inspire any confidence.

And that's current PC.

Um, that's OS X…oh, wait; never mind, IE::mac's Wikipedia page basically says that most versions of it were available for both OS 9 and OS X. I bet Netscape gives similar results, though.

that's hot

I would find the site easier to navigate if you guys used IPB3 or 4 software.

 

[destinedjagold]

Nice to see a mobile-friendly version of the site's coming our way. :3

I think I'm already on this hype train!

But damn a more mobile friendly site will make me so happy!

Your avatar...

Spoiler:

says otherwise. :/

 

[KetsuekiR]

This is amazing! *.* It's so pretty! The hype train simply has to make a stop here because I'm getting on, one way or another! >:D

 

[Kenchiin]

I need this.

 

[Astinus]

How exciting! It's great to see PC move ahead. You two are doing some awesome work (as always)!

I really hope that this will make browsing PC on my tablet much easier. Seems like I will, since y'all specifically mention that I'll be able to read things without adjusting font size and squinting.

i don't like things that are different

 

[Sylphiel]

The more I see of this, the more I want to see it finished.

Very good job so far. :D

 

[Hyzenthlay]

PokéCommunity crashes when I load it on the iPad/phone so I'm looking forward to this update! Loving how clean and modern it looks so far.

 

[Treecko]

Oh finally a more mobile friendly layout that's also aesthetically pleasing, I've been waiting so long! Hopefully I can browse PC on my iPod without it crashing all the time and it taking 5 minutes to load anything. Looking forward to this update it looks amazing!
