New Site Design

[Chris W]

As you may have probably already noticed, the forum and the site has recently had a major re-design. I hope you like the new look and feel but there are also a ton of new features that I just added.

Here are the main new features:

1. Featured Threads - The main page of the site now acts as a "portal" with a list of the featured threads of the site. To become a featured thread automatically the thread has to be liked 5 times. So start "liking" threads everyone! (Studentfilms.com "likes" not Facebook likes) A moderator or admin can also "feature" a thread manually.
   
   
2. Unread Posts Indicator - Now there's a big red icon with the number of unread posts in the middle of the menu bar. Hopefully this will make it easier to find new posts.
   
   
3. The site is now 100% mobile friendly. The old version had a bunch of glitches in the mobile version. Now it looks very nice.

I hope you like the new design of the site. Please comment below to let me know how you like it.

Nicely done. Also, I think this will help to keep people motivated by seeing featured posts that they may not have seen otherwise.

Glad you like it.

It should be helpful to promote great threads and content that people would miss otherwise.
