12 Seahawks Street Expansion


Check out the new digs in the menu bar above.

Get enrolled in the 12 Seahawks Street Forum right now! Having a low user number will look really cool a year from now. It has a lot of features that other boards don't have, which should be fun. And guess what? All the contributors to the 12 Seahawks Street Blog are invited to be moderators, if they so wish.

What the heck is the News-inator? You'll see. It's going to put JoSCh out of a job.

Have fun, guys.

UPDATE: It appears to be the consensus that the masthead has grown out of control. It needs to shrink, while keeping the functionality of the three main areas of the Street. If you have any graphical skills, please enter our masthead design contest. Yes, you can build one for us! Just make it no wider than the existing one, and put your own touch into what you think this site represents. It is even conceivable to have more than one winner and have a javascript rotate them. But that would be siss kidder gardner "everybody wins" crap. Never mind.

But enter the conest anyway. If you come up with anything, post it in the forum.

  2. This has the potential to be the coolest thing to happen to this site since we started.
    Hopefully it won't get clunky or distract from what has made this place great already.
    I can't wait ot see this thing in action.

  4. I had that concern too, meezy. But you know what? WE CONTROL THIS SITE. We can blast whomever we want, warn them until they lose privileges, and move or delete junk threads.

    In any case, this is unique, because we have much more power than the other sites.

  7. I dig it, other than the number font. It looks too skinny?

  8. CitK - I like it A LOT.

    I was hoping we'd stick with the same general masthead, since it's kind of become our brand.

    A couple of suggestions:

    Don't italicize the 12 so it look more like a house number, and left justify the STREET.

    I really like the official Seahawks font too.

    Great job.

  10. JoSCh has a point about the number 12 being undernourished. It should be fat from eating lamb.
