New UCB site design

[sharilyn]

They switched up the design overnight. Nice, but I liked the old one better. And not just because this one has eaten half the March shows.

Thoughts?

Thoughts?

Yeah. Watch out for Neil-shaped shadows that look like they're holding pointy objects.

Will have to get used to this version.

Is Amy really going to show up tonight? I hadn't even heard she was supposed to be there at all. (For The Dave Hill Explosion.)

One of the water towers has the UCB logo on it. Cool!
It also looks like a water tower with eyes and a moustache.

It is clean and easy to find everything. I also enjoy the hover effect that turns the lights on in each city when you roll over each location. I liked the design of the old one a lot, so I am probably a little jaded due to that. It had an indie feel to it. I bet it is easier to update now as well.

i like the new performer's page (the page is new, not the performers). i don't like how it seems oriented to the left when you open the page, so the edging of the new york section looks like it goes off the browser window. that is all aesthetic though. i prefer the new colors too.

Good job, guys - site looks awesome. I love the videos posted next to the performer bios. Inte-great!

 

[Sean_Taylor]

I like it!
http://www.ucbtheatre.com/
All the info you really need is available right away on the main page. You can see today's schedule and navigate to either theatre and easily get to the new ucbcomedy.com link as well.

Nice job!

The fact that the page is linked to ucbcomedy.com is cool as hell--having the videos of performers on their performer pages is TOPS. KICK ASS!

I hope they would play around with the fonts a bit more. I feel like they're too big. The background design was a good choice, though. I too love the video links accompanying performer bios. But, the fonts!

Did the old site offer an iCal feed? If so I never noticed. That alone is a fantastic enough addition.

 

[Whines]

I love this version. NY and LA on the front page -- no clicking once before you get any information.

Videos right there.

Nice big type.

Love it.

 

[intelligentless]

Nice big type.

The opposition has spoken! And they disagree with me.

Oh hey, there are card emoticons. :Qh:

 

[Dave B]

I'm afraid of change.

 

[DigsyMadrox]

As long as the show schedule still goes all the way back so I can find out who was performing on 11/2/2003 or any other random date, I'm fine with change.

Subscribed to that via Google Calendar, but everything is 5 hours off. Might be a time zone thing.

 

[seanisthegood]

You cannot see the entirety of March's Schedule. Or can you, Christensen?

Am I obligated to go back in time to do all those OI shows?

I'm too old for that shite.

I love it, especially the integration of the ucbcomedy videos. I wish the Harold Night rosters were still listed on the schedule, but otherwise, every change is an upgrade
