    Gfx expansion

    After 10 months since we have opened. We've decided to expand our gfx section as we have quite a no. of gfxers.
    Our intention is to create a friendly graphics community, where people with all gfx backgrounds/levels could come display their works, share/learn gfx tips and chillout with the community on the off topic section.

    Here's the new domain www.aboxgfx.com

    There are too many user ranks and it takes ages to load.

    hmm..I don't think that will cause much lag.
    Currently, the host i'm on is having some issues with the server. Probably that's the reason.

    The site just is very slow for me. Even on the minimalist themes.

    Like the design, but it is a little hard to read, and the forums seem really busy and I cant quite work out where I am going. Also, everything seems a little cramped, you target audience is aimed at graphics designers, I imagine they are going to mostly have large screens, 22" and so, use it I have a couple 22" screens and on one it just looks tiny :(

    Other than that I love it, nice graphics and unique!!

    Actually, the site is in a anime site, basically it is just a section, and pretty much a lot of people who watch anime have small screens, 17''. This is based from what I saw when I browsed with my computer.

    One thing I really like is the BG image, reminds me of playing Oblivion ;)

    We've successfully changed to a new host.
