Portalarium, I see, is ringing in the New Year with a new design for the Shroud of the Avatar website:

I suspect that this may, at least in part, be the handiwork of Rustic Dragon, whom (you will recall) was hired in part to work on Portalarium’s web presence. It is a much cleaner, and more professional-looking, design. That said, it would still be nice if at some point a list, slider, or other brief re-cap of the most recent news updates posted to the site made their way to the front page.

(And yes, I realize the irony of my saying so when I have, at present, hijacked the front page of the Codex for an lengthy joke.)

It should also be noted that it only appears to be the case that the front page of the Shroud of the Avatar website has been updated, and (furthermore) that the updated look is only being shown to visitors who do not have a cached login for the site. The majority of the site’s content still uses the scroll-themed look, although one assumes this will change in the near future.
