Massive Starbound Update Coming Soon, New Huge Trailer

Quoting: pd12I was looking at this game but got put off by the bad steam reviews about missing content and devs not regularly updating it much - lack of regular updates and bad dev communication are big warning signs in my book, especially for EarlyAccess games. This has given me more confidence, but I'll need to see evidence of better and improved gameplay and a sale before I'll consider buying again ...
Also, I haven't even done 80% of the things in Terraria yet, so probably won't even want to spend too much time in this. (Hence only getting it on sale).
Their nightly branch is updated every night.

Quoting: EikeSorry, I find this hardly usable. Even with the browser full screen on my PC monitor, hald of the screen is filled by some image. The images for the entries in the main list are way too large as well IMHO. The fonts are quite large, and I'm saying this as someone who generally enlarges fonts from OS's default. (You do know that more people have a PC than a tablet or smart phone, right?) People get much less information on a glance now.
The featured image will be tested with adjustments of moving the content up a bit.

The main list images are almost the same size as the old ones FYI.

Yes i am well aware more people use a PC thanks, no need to be condescending with feedback buddy.

We will look at giving likes their own spot, if anyone has ideas on that put them forward, but they are in the same place as the old design.

If font sizes really bug the minority, then I am sure you know how to adjust them yourselves ;), but it may be possible for me to add an option for big, medium and small font sizes if people would be genuinly interested?

Quoting: GuestCongratulations for the new design, but now all the tags in the sales page (my favourite page ^_^ ) look black to me and are more difficult to distinguish. I just hope this doesn't mean my colour blindness got worse.
Fixed, sales page badges have now had the paintbrush treatment.

Fixed the pagination issues on articles with more then one page, and fixed profiles updating with the blank steam url, if you wipe it now it will be fine and stop showing a blank steam button url.

@Xpander
1) Read the article ;)
2) It's possible to move it, but not by much or else it defeats the point
3) Position is intentional
4) It's due to username length, need a new place for the comments link

The new sales block has been enabled.

Quoting: Segata SanshiroLooks absolutely great! I really like the way the articles are presented now, like the headline on top with the speech bubble and stuff :) Hadn't seen that part yet.

Any way we could have "GamingOnLinux" back at the top though? Penguin looks a bit lonely there, has done for a while now.
I feel there should be text as well which isn't showing up. When the page loads on my tablet or phone I see the text "Gaming On Linux" in blue for a second until the logo loads then it disappears. I imagine the text is there as alternate text but disappears once the logo populates in the browser's cache. I am not sure if that is by design or not. Firefox on all 3 devices used. Android 4.4 on my phone, Android 4.2.2 on my tablet, and Firefox DE (Aurora) on my desktop.
That is the html alt text if the image cannot be loaded, we may add text to the nav, but it's low priority and only a possibility.

The icon for a small nav is now fixed, was missed in the upload. Thanks!
