We have somewhat of a dilemma. If you look at the "Old Blue" skin, you can see what the menu looks like if it is down the left-hand side of the page, instead of integrated into the bar beneath the banner (the bit that says "My Controls" etc). Now, we're not sure how this will work out, so if you could take a look at the Old Blue skin, navigate around a bit with it, then post your vote in the poll above, and give any comments you want in a post below, that would be much appreciated.

We are also considering an Amazon Widget to show the Malazan books for sale at that site. So, if you check out the "Malazanempire*" skin (it's right at the bottom of the page), you can see what that looks like. Then tell us if you like it. :killingme:

Thanks for your input, guys!

I'm not very fond of this skin to begin with, but just keeping the bar on the left side seems okay.

I can't quite imagine what it'll look like if the bar was on top.

Same as it looks on Magenta. :killingme:

Bottom. If it's on the side, I have to constantly scroll the screen left to right to read posts.

It looks pretty awkward on the left. And I have to scroll to read the post (I use Aqua skin with it on the top.)

So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.

I personally prefer it below the banner, its less information on the left hand side, but if possible I'd probably stick with the aqua skin anyway :killingme:

Just my two cents.

I too prefer to have it below the banner. When it's on the left it just seems to clutter the screen.
