I think the wallpapers are new, but even though they appear to have iPad formatted versions, they aren't really formatted nicely for iPad, you miss some of the picture, it's a shame :/

Gilray mentioned a new site a last week on Twitter. Better than the last one, but it'll never have the same feeling as the original.

Because they fucked up, that's why. Dripik has nothing to do in AO.

Very swanky new site design, it seems a tad closer to the old one than the other one was. But I agree with the nostalgia-induced sentiment of the old one was awesome, even if Firefox hated the awesome encyclopedia pages.

I actually decided to change my laptop's wallpaper after seeing the downloads section. =D

I'd just like to say that this wallpaper gives conclusive (well, not as conclusive as it being mentioned in the official art book) evidence for the presence of Farzad Varhramyramyramyramyman's caricature on the Brewmaster's watch face.

Even you should be able to see it now, Bespectacled Professor Nate.

The new site is great! Much more suited for purpose than the last one, with the more modern design, fonts and whatnot This new look definitely reminds me of the art book layout and colour scheme.

Shame the encyclopaedia pages from the old old site have yet to return, but I guess they could still always appear someday.

I think that's the octigi symbol. He's also got Farzad's face on the top far-right badge. And is that a mudokon happy-face second from the left, on the bottom?

It's the symbol for the Magog Cartel. You can see it lots of things if you look.

I'm loving the new site. The new HD Wallpapers are great and the whole layout is so simple.

They could put this forum as part of the community couldn't they? Its the most official fourm anyway.

Is that Soulstorm wallpaper new? Because I've never seen it before and it's one awesome rendering of the Brewery.

Didn't need HD'ifying, they can just have gone back to the original painting by Rob Brown.
