Bioware-Mythic's new website for Dark Age of Camelot has been launched this morning which gives much anticipation for great things to come. Take a moment and visit the new website today. The site will also be the new place where you can find official news from Bioware-Mythic. See you soon!

Site is not 800x624 friendly at all. So no surfing the site while at work.


Sent feedback to add appropriate code to check the resolution of the person's monitor and adjust the site accordingly.


[edit]


Hmm, they didn't update the realm war. You click the box and it sends you to a page with a link that just sends you to the old camelot herald. Kind of defeats the purpose of a new site doesn't it?


or am I missing something?


[edit #2]


Seems like it was just created in ruby to offer easier updates/adjustments to the front page. Links all send you back to the (old) Camelot Herald.

Hope they don't remove the player number indicator from the server list. That would be dumbness.

Ahhh.


I figured the roll out of the new site but would be a singular step, instead of incremental changes.

It's not 1920x1200 friendly either... sucks to buy a big *ss monitor and only use 1/10th of the display because some web designer thought it was easier to work with a fixed box.

Well...one of the first things you learn in a web design class is accessability. Labeling images so a screen reader can read what the images are of, factoring in people with outdated browsers and swapping layouts appropriately (i.e. no frames support) and scaling to the users' resolution.

That would make way too much sense.
