Hello everyone,
you might or you might not know my little fansite, 3rdpartyeve.net, which i launched about 10 month ago.

Ever since people have been buggin me about the optics of it, and i kept pushing a redesign to the future.

Now after people even approaching me on fanfest about it i finally took a few hours to switch from the old layout to a twitter bootstrap based one. Besides using boostrap now, i also got a theme from bootswatch.com who offer free bootstrap themes (big thanks to them), which i modified only slightly.

I hope you guys enjoy the much cleaner new look (and there will be some more improvements soon(tm)).

For those who don't know 3rdpartyeve.net yet, it is a catalogue for 3rd party applications arround eve - currently it lists 38 Applications that you might or might not have heard about, and i'd like to use this post to encourage people to submit their applications if they havent allready (theres a form for that on the website).

best regards,
PP

Edit: comparisation old vs. new image

thank you.

i didn't get much feedback so far, but it seems people like it - 4 new apps submitted so far, and about 35% more visits.
ccp fixing the language on the fansite list might have had influence on those numbers as well,
so i don't really know how most perceive this.

You should know better than me that silence on the net probably means "Thank you".
On another note, I think cross-posting it in the "EVE New Citizens Q&A" forum would draw more attention (traffic wise).

that might be an idea for the future, however i'd like to see a few more projects to be added,

I was planning to make a special "essentials" subsite, which would basically
recommend a list of tools for starters, once that one is there it would make sense
