Welcome to the Vertigo Games Blog 2.0!
Phase one of our complete site overhaul is complete! Welcome to the new blog! Lots of new changes here, so let’s go through them a bit.
First off, Gravatars have now replaced our old avatar system. Gravatars can be used in tons of different blogs across the blogosphere, and you can register for one just by replying to this post and checking off the box below. Woo!
Secondly, this new blog has been upgraded from 2.3 to 2.7, and is much more widget-friendly, so I can add new stuff whenever I’d like. If you guys want something in the blog, such as a rating system for posts, then let me know. Anything is possible at this point!
I’m still tinkering with much of the blog so it’s not 100% just yet, but it’s getting there. Later this week the website will be done and I’ll go into more detail about that, the new Store, and our first puzzle pack for Spirits of Metropolis. Till then, post away some ideas for the blog! Twitter? Ratings? I’m up for just about anything. 😀
I am the first reply on this post 🙂 WOW 🙂
Hope I can be like you one day 🙂
WOW.
It’s slick.

That’s pretty disturbing.
Gah, stupid Google Ads. Ah well, I shall disable them for now. Thanks for the heads up!
Very nice.
Wowza, this is p. qid!
Blue is good. Very good. It’s an easier blog to navigate now. Woop, woop.
Also, hows SoM doing?
I liked the old blog design better; it was simple but pleasing.
However, I think this will look great for the main page.
@Illari – You sure it’s not Google’s targeted ads? 8)
Nice, not sure if I like the layout of the comments (The usernames being so small make them seem almost like an afterthought) but apart from that I think it looks incredibly win.
Can’t wait to see the new site design too!
I’ll see if I can fix the username comments. 😀
I like the new blog too, btw. The dark background is pleasing to the eye and overall the design feels cosy and professional at the same time.
A bug I’ve noticed: The date and time for the comments are all stuck on the date and time when the blog post was posted.
You’re right Pete. I’ve checked the code and corrected it. Usernames are now in bold as well. More tinkering to come!
Neato! The new blog is great.
