As a webdeveloper/designer myself I suggest you cut out the images, especially for the mobile version (imho images are overrated and make you use lots of data) . Since there's HTML5 and CSS3 you can basically do the same thing and make a better support for the new browser updates.

I'd love to do the job ;-)

I'm not a big fan of the new website, I'm sorry. I'm more than happy about the looks of the current website to be honest. The direction feels very Runescape 3, which I do not like. If you're spicing things up a little you might want to stay true to the Old School art scheme/direction.

The new design looks a lot easier to navigate and appears to be a clean design, which I like. I'm not sure on the colors for the gray bar at the top with white letters, it looks a little bland, however I'm not sure what colors would make it seem more inviting. I don't want it to be too distracting or too bright, I just want it a little less dull and boring looking. Maybe something to give it an Old School parchment look? I think that might be nice.

If I could add anything, I would like the OSRS GE on the website, and clear buttons on the top left to switch between the OSRS and RS3 websites.

Nice work on the design and functionality, I think the update will make the website more user friendly and inviting over all.

Thanks.
Hi.

NO i don't like the new design. It looks more like Runescape 3 and totally ruins the OSRS spirit!

The current design is great, has a nostalgic feel to it and I don't see any reason to change it!

PLEASE KEEP THE CURRENT DESIGN!
