As discussed in the recent dev blog by CCP Alice the Web Architect, we are making a completely new website for EVE. A website that does justice to the universe we all love, but occasionally have a hard time explaining to the uninitiated (that's a fancy word for n00b that I learned).

Check it out!

I see some highly sophisticated development resource management in action at roughly 2:20 mark... the whip was a nice touch. Twisted

To the n00b uninitiated, viewing the ships without getting some sense of scale to go with it is completely meaningless. When an Abso is seemingly the same size as a supposedly titanic Leviathan he'll just go "ho-hum" and move on. I strongly suggest implementing some sort of comparison tool for possible new customers to get a feeling for the sizes involved.

Looking forward to the new site, regardless.

You always cheat.

However, after watching your work with that whip ...

You deserve to be first Sir.

Cool stuff! About time EVE website was re-unified again. Hopefully we'll be able to go to bug reporting or account info or other sections without having to first click on the "Archives" link and then navigate through the old site.

Seems like a lot of people working on the front end though! Any of them working on the forums? I mean that's the central utility for the community part of the site, right? When can we expect full functionality? (images, sigs, consistent url parsing, standard page behavior, etc.)

p.s. My first try to post this was unsuccessful. Good thing I copied the text before clicking on the "Post" button! These EVE forums will teach you to plan ahead like that!

p.p.s. Good point in the post above mine! We need real voting enabled, not this 'like' stuff. It's the 21st century here guys!

It can have an image that shows how much over compensation the player will have. The bigger the ship the smaller the pink phallic representation on the screen can be. So A Rifter would have a huge pink bar running alongside it.

And a titan... Well. Shocked

Looks cool. How up-to-date will the Universe map be in terms of kills, etc?

Also, unrelated to the new website, was CCP Alice's hair the inspiration for the female "bangs and ponytail" hair style?

I don't know, really not sure I like it, I mean it's the zig zag lines, clumpy detail, the colour scheme, it just doesn't suit your skin type Guard and the way it hangs off your shoulders!?!?!?

Sorry mate, just not working for me.....

Sigh...I'll live with it.

On another note, regarding the ship introduction, personally I'd do it like the Causality trailer, that was exciting to watch. Also, I think it would be worth including introductions on the major alliances and current political goings-on in New Eden; people come for the ships, and stay for the meta-game thingy.
