While I like the current nav bar at the top of the page where Portal / Home/ Calendar.... is. It does not denote where one button is and another begins other than the "words" I am looking to update that. Maybe make it more touch screen targeting friendly. Also, maybe some clearer words.
1st go round. I'm not at least 75% sure of this one. I kind of took this off the forum images for matching.
Thoughts? Like I mentioned, be honest. It will not hurt my feelings if you hate it.

I think the current navbar just needs some tweaking instead of changing it out.
I wish the forum would allow for hover buttons.

I think I did it. They Hover now! This whole thread is pretty much mute now.
Still going to update the images for cleaner text.

December 16th 2022, 8:10 pm Me three, I like the nav bar how it was/is and am not so keen on the one you were testing because it just doesn't fit our "theme" well, it needs a certain ruggedness to it! Lol I've personally never had a issue with the whole touch thing and I'm here via cellphone 99% of the time.

Lol You talking about the one up right now? or the one that was in the screenshot?
I know I have been trying to standardize the fonts across the site. And not use some "far out" ones either.

I am also thinking it may be time for some re-arranging as well. Maybe turning off some like "calendar"?

I just like darker blues though. First one I ever made for the site was black with blue highlight. It was cool for a long while until it got dated.
Looked like this: (still not too bad)
I like to bring this screenshot up from time to time how the site looked when I found ATLTF back around 2013-2014 before I joined. Hard to believe I watched the site and builds for 2 years before I actually made an account. It's how I found
@Doc Sprocket and followed his "MULE" build. It was a time in life that I was a bit leery making accounts on sites for some reason. (Actually, I have reasons)
Funny fact. The site still runs this theme. I've just modified it that much. I've tried to jump themes a few times in the past 4-5 years, but I could never get it as clean as this. Well clean in the timeline I would like.

Wow hard to believe how basic the site looked back when, man you've done a super job!
