Stripes Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 Haha, check out their message board. It is almost a direct copy from Bengalszone (With forum catgeories and stuff). Someone's been snooping around BZ I thought the very same thing. Those message boards are CLONES of the bengalszone format. Good work B24 on impressing the Bengals front office people.I'll still be posting here, however, I see no reason to move! Quote
BengalBax Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 They got boards?!? Heck yeah, I AM THERE! Quote

Good work B24 on impressing the Bengals front office people.I'll still be posting here, however, I see no reason to move! A lot of it is because they used the same software. But yeah...with the smack talk forum, etc...that didn't happen by accident The forums need a serious overhaul. Did you see the logo that hasn't been properly fixed? Quote
skyline Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 When I click on "More Headlines" it doesn't take me anywhere. Anyone else having that problem? Quote
HoosierCat Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 Much better than before. They lost the "classified ad page" look in favor of something with more consistency and style. I think the Marvin and Paul Brown pics from the previous version were better than the ones they picked for the banner this time, and I the green "bengals jungle" grass is overdoing it, but those are nits. But shouldn't this site be called "Geoff Hobson's Cincinnati Bengals"??? Hobson's Choice, Hobson's Q&A, Hobson's Quick Hits...sheesh, Geoff, having every byline on the site isn't enough? Quote
alleycat Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 As far as I can tell he is the only employee of bengals.com Quote
bengalsrz Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 FINALLY, now when you type in bengals.com, i t takes u to the new site, i hated that 2.096 thing Quote
HairOnFire Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 The new site does look good. It looks like someone actually "designed" it. I could do without the "Meet the Bengals" flash on the main page... but wow, this is a big improvement over the previous pages. Those of you who don't care about looks, I see your content still there! The articles are still displayed on the main page and not hidden under flash. See, an upgrade doesn't have to flashify everything... I'll have to take your word for the content remaining the same. My first experience with the new design has been limited to seeing alot of orange, spotting a huge B in the upper left corner, and small but familiar snapshot of Marvin. I then waited to see if the picture of Paul Brown was retained. And I waited, and waited, and waited. Total computer lockup. Didn't have to reboot, but I did have to bail and restart my ISP. So I guess I'll try out the new bells and whistles later. Hooray. Stupid computer nerds. Quote

Coming from the person who said he wants nothing but text and boobs on his favorite websites Who doesn't like boobs and content? Look, when I'm done surfing I'll drop by the most official of sites again [Eat more chili] and give it another try. Assuming it loads properly I'll check right back and give you my opinion on the new improved B. I'm sure it's a huge upgrade. Quote

Coming from the person who said he wants nothing but text and boobs on his favorite websites By the way, conservatives have already ruined one of my favorite websites. They stopped people from posting nude pictures on RateMyCamelToe.com Now it's limited to photos of girls in swimsuits that are a couple of sizes too small. (sigh) Quote
HairOnFire Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 Sweet. That's one fine looking big B. However, I'm not sure if it's the best looking logo on the site though because I also like the ones for Pepsi, Supercuts, Roto-Rooter, National City, The Ohio Lotto, Cincinnati Bell, American Eagle, CBS Sportsline, America Online, and Hurricane Katrina Relief. Sadly, I didn't see the familiar prompt suggesting I eat more chili. Quote
WhoDey_Oggy Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 Overall i think it looks pretty nice Quote
San Antonio Bengal Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 However, I'm not sure if it's the best looking logo on the site though because I also like the ones for Pepsi, Supercuts, Roto-Rooter, National City, The Ohio Lotto, Cincinnati Bell, American Eagle, CBS Sportsline, America Online, and Hurricane Katrina Relief. At least they put all that on the bottom of the page... I would have been ticked off if they put all the ads up top. Quote
WhoDey_Oggy Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 WOW...... has anyone seen the kids fan poll??? What is your favorite Bengals Color? Orange Black Gray Green White where did the gray and green come from? Quote
San Antonio Bengal Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 Well, Harold Green once played for the Bengals... Quote
HairOnFire Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 WOW...... has anyone seen the kids fan poll??? What is your favorite Bengals Color? Orange Black Gray Green White where did the gray and green come from? If I recall gray was the teams outlook for years. Perhaps they finally made it official. And I think green is for the stuff they found in Duane Clemons locker. Quote
redsrule2500 Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 Web Design sure has changed. I don't think that pretty graphics and stuff make a good website, but it should be easy and clear to navigate through Quote
Ox Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 And I think green is for the stuff they found in Duane Clemons locker. Hair, you crack my arse up. You're alright, you know, for a lib and all. Quote
semiotter Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 Its almost as good as some of OXs babe pics.....naw what was I thinking.. Quote
WhoDey42 Posted September 18, 2005 Report Posted September 18, 2005 I think the site looks pretty good overall. It's a lot more organized than the last one. I like how all the news and stuff is at the top, and all the hobson stuff is together, etc. The schedule, Meet the Bengals, and fantasy stats are pretty cool new features. Quote
The_Next_Big_Thing Posted September 18, 2005 Report Posted September 18, 2005 Bring back the old easy to read site and dump this piece of crap. When I pull it up, 1/10th of the screen is ads, 50% of the screen is just the tiger stripe on the right, and the text size is too freakin small to read on the articles. Quote
