USA Carry Design Update

[lukem]

As you can see I just updated the site to the new design. Everything is in the same place. I just implemented a new header and navigation. I think this navigation is much better and simply lists every popular section of USA Carry. I also got rid of the dropdowns that were always causing problems. Keep an eye out for more updates as I continue to keep USA Carry the best concealed carry site on the net.

And BTW, Happy Thanksgiving!

UPDATE: I also added a new style that will change the forums from the fixed (skinny) width to full screen. For those of you with the bigger monitors or just like to have it full you just need to switch your style. Instructions below.

USA Carry Light Fixed (this is the skinny default version)
USA Carry Light Fluid (this is the full screen version)

a.) Scroll to the bottom and there is a dropdown on the left where you can select the style you want.

OR

b.) go here:

Scroll to Forum Skin, and then select the style you want.

UPDATE: A few of you have asked for a style with a dark background and light text. This has been added. Use the same instructions above to change your style but you can now select:

USA Carry Dark Fixed
USA Carry Dark Fluid

Nice update Luke - looks fantastic on my iPad !

Glad to head it. I just check it on a Samsung Galaxy TAB and it looks great at all. That's the 7 in Android tablet.

FYI:

Just changed the homepage just a little bit. I moved the Recent Threads section over to the right side and also moved the login box to the top left side.

It's kinda odd, but I've lost about 15% of the usable screen size on my computer here. Instead of fully using the width of the screen, it's now a fixed column size for the entire site.

It's the same in Firefox and Internet Explorer. Screenshot attached.

In the User Control Panel Options, I tried changing the theme to see if I could get it back, but it didn't change.

Looks nice Luke. Definitely a smoother design.

Yep, it is supposed to be like that.

Yep, it is supposed to be like that.

Any reason for losing the usable screen real estate?
Why waste all of the space on a bunch of white pixels. It makes paragraphs and pages longer vertically for no gain that I can think of.

Will there be a theme update that lets us use our entire screen?

Booga, strange it had exactly the opposite effect on my iPad. Now instead of being squished over to one side it takes up the whole screen.

Ask and you shall receive. You can now choose two styles:

USA Carry Fixed Width White - This is the default style which is the skinny one.

USA Carry Fluid Width White - This style will use all the screen space available.
