Habbox.com - Layout

[Westman40]

I have probably posted this in the wrong place, so if I have - sorry.

I've been thinking about the main Habbox Website (Habbox.com). It uses a free content management system called Joomla.
Just an idea, why doesent Habbox stop that idea? and use more 'Habbo'ey type designs? And because more user friendly? Because at the moment, it doesent look fully like a Habbo Fansite tbh.

I appriciate this may take quite a bit of time, being as Habbox is quite a big fansite (In terms of content and members).
I very much doubt this will get used, and ill probs get lots of ranting people telling me "NONONONONONO!", but its just an idea to the management.

NONONONONONO!

[--ss--]

Apparently we are getting a new layout soon. but personally I quite like the current layout as it is very simple , nice to look at, easy to customize aswell as looking very professional.
Most sites nowadays are tending to move away from the classic Habbo style sites and making them Joomla based like Habbox.

Eh, good for Habbox if it is. People have different opinions. Habbox layout is good.. but its using Joomla. And a free layout (i think).

I just think itd be good for a change to come to the site - I havent seen a change like this for a while.

I like the way it is personally, but I did find that they modded a template they found on the net, just to their own banner and background mind

Habbox itself, is more Habbo'ey than the forum.

The forum is for discussions of many subject, and they have a variey of skins you can chose.

Why would Habbox.com itself, need to look more Habbo'ey?, They are achieving more than other fansites, getting more views, and they have a very popular forum.

something must be working well :rolleyes:

Yeah I suppose lol. But the staff are dedicated(ish), lots of other fansite arent - surely thats one reason?

I didnt mean the forum, I dont have much of a problem with it. Except some other issues that dont fit into this - I wont say.

Habbox is good at content, I'm just not 100% keen on the layout.

It's in Joomla so they're pretty limited to layouts..

Stop using Joomla LOL? and make their own stuff up, it gives them a wider range of things to do. Easy peasy! (may take a while to merge the content and all to suit it though).

GOOD? more than good my little friend

Not really, it just takes a lot of coding and stuffs and some things are limited but can still be customised in a number of ways
