UPDATE OK, the old original eShrunk is back up and now completed, thanks to everyone in this and past threads for everything.

I am thinking of running a contest for a new banner/internal page link tabs. Just a small prize amount ($5?) but I'd like to see some.
Details will be posted later.

Only thing that is diff. is I took out the little colorful boxes so it's just logos, looks less sloppy to me.

More will be added in the following days, much more links to tons of popular sites.

Half the page turns bright green, the other is blank black/grey.

Hmm, it really doesn't like IE, eh?

No offence, but I'm sort of getting tired of Digg "knockoffs", no matter what the concept behind them is. I liked the old eShrunk more (it was a link homepage, right?), but that's just my opinion.

Yeah, I'll soon probably change it back to the original one that everyone seemed to like for some reason, though I didn't think it was that great (the dark one with the big white logos)

I like the original eshrunk a lot better. Plus I think it's a great idea that could bring in some good money once you get the layout finalized and allow people to customize it. Actually I was kind of thinking that it would be cool if you made the original eshrunk easily downloadable, so that people with dial up or a slower connection don't have to wait for it to load.

I don't know how to make it 'easily downloadable'...hm

old eShrunk will probably come back soon, i will bump this (if it isn't too old) when it does

why not just have all the icons bright all the time?

I was wondering the same thing. I love the transition though, but it should be less dramatic. Other than that it looks great.

I don't know, I just like the effect a lot and I think it adds more to the site.

I mean, let's face it, it's a pretty simple idea, and just having the icons there looks kind of cheap(er).

there is still the problem with icons staying lit up after you move over them.

Quintox

Yeah it sometimes does that dub, can't figure out why. I have an idea though. It only seems to do that on the index page. I think the images are too close and the transparency parts are interconnecting.

Yeah I know what you mean. What if you made the icons just a little brighter before browsing over them so they're easier to read? You could brighten them up a bit and still keep the effect you have.

maybe you could make the background brighter. it might look better if it wasn't dark on dark to start.

I can' t seem to find a color that is lighter and looks decent with the page background lol
