Forums logo changed

The forums color scheme (green) is still the original Graal2001-themed scheme that matches the website from 2001. The logo was changed in 2002 to reflect "Graal2002 style" when in reality, this art style is kind of bad and wasn't kept. 2002 even changed its art style and name to Kingdoms since then.

Could we get the old logo back?

Wasn't it mentioned the website would get fixed/finished as well as updates to the forums? Last I knew they had fragmented versions of the website with a poor choice in navigation to reach pc download link. I would be interested in seeing some revamp on the forums.

It looked similar to this, but this appears to be an edited version of the original image from 2001. Originally you could clearly see the outside of the bar from Harmonia in the background.

Yes, when I made that loading screen I based it on this (my personal favorite).

Also my favorite, but I feel that loadingscreen doesn't really give it justice. :/

Probably to try and get some attention driven toward Zone at the time considering the immediately previous website theme was the "Graal Kingdoms theme", a server that was surviving far better than Zone. They probably incorrectly attributed GK's standing in relation to Zone to the marketing of the website design. Singling out a server to use as a theme has proven to not be popular with the community, though.

Yeah, that's my personal favorite as well. Same goes for the old website layout from back then. It looked so clean and unified.

I've often said that if they ever update the site again, it should be based on this design.

I think the problem is more the general style than the reference to Zone, the current website as a whole is much worse than its previous iterations (both in usability and attractiveness).
