New Mariners logo... sort of ?

[goingtoadisco]

Was just on the new look mariners website and it looks like they have changed the wave in the logo from light blue to a navy blue ?





or is it just me.....

Might just be the colours on your monitor...  I can't confirm or deny as the new site wont open on my mac... very strange

 

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

The logo has different colours all over the net...even (on the main page, not the 'mariners or memberships? page) the logo in the header, and the logo on the right near the membership information are in different colours.

Will look tomorrow at work .......... on my home monitor looks similar.

 

[Rowdy]

must be site bugz, cant access either

 

[Bear]

still wont work for me either

 

[Paolo]

Im guessing the site wont open because they are courrently changing the layout. Will look similar to the new look a-league.com (in other words, shit)

 

[Bear]

Agree. It was fine how it was. Why change whats not broken?

 

[Blackadder]

Supposedly to get a uniform look across all club sites, which tends to turn them into a load of crap both asthetically and from a operational view point.

they all had a uniform look which whilst not perfect was a shitload better then this new layout

it's easier to get to the news headlines on this new setup, and aside from that IMO it's just different, not better or worse.

It looks farking shite.

My club's colours are sky blue, royal blue, white, and (begrudginly) a small amount of orange.

Why the fark have I got a predominantly black website like every other damn club?

I'm all for the unified approach to the financial and contractual side of the league, but with websites it's just overkill.

Club identities ftw

 

[Mariner Girl]

The new site is radically different from the old one, Yesturday I hated it, today it is growing on me.

Just a matter of finding where everything is and "being open to change".

 

[Bear]

its shit

Black backgrounds help your eyes at least

 

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

IMO, the new layout looks very amateur.

I'd like to see the clubs have a bit more freedom to develop their own sites.

I'm also sick of that bloody membership splash page...

 

[Jesus]

Yeah it is almost round 4. Memberships are unlikely to sell now, or be influenced/reminded by the splash page

 

[Paolo]

im sure you will find that the membership page will be replaced with some other form of advertising

 

[ballantyne]

Oh, it's a shocking job isn't it! Won't work at all in IE7; doesn't resize properly; the yellow tabs are floating around in the middle of nothing; ugly, pedestrian design; pointless, empty, grey and white strip under the header; they haven't even done the clichd rounded rectangle box backgrounds right - the lines are different sizes.
If I were the A-league I would return this for a refund.
Terrible.

[~Floss~]

At least they didn't use cliche'd clipped-corner rectangle boxes (sim-card shape).... or maybe that was last year's design cliche
