New OddBlog

***Wil*** · #1 11-20-2010, 09:33 AM

To keep up with the pressure of delivering news on time, OddBlog has moved to WordPress. It's true there isn't exactly a flood of news right now, but Xavier and I are frequently too busy to get around to reporting what news there is for days at a time. For instance, you may have noticed that OddBlog still hasn't updated to report on the second dev diary or new official site. The ease of publishing that WordPress provides will make it a lot easier for us to bring everyone news faster.

The new OddBlog can be found at http://oddworldlibrary.net/blog/, so update your bookmarks and news feed readers. The old OddBlog is remaining intact to preserve access to the hundreds of stories we've created over the years. The same applies to the interviews and other special features. These will not be moved to the new OddBlog, at least not in the forseeable future.

And remember we're on Twitter too! http://twitter.com/OddBlog

Yay you listened to my advice and put a picture of Abe shrugging.

Damn, I love the black background. Never change that!

Awesome work Max and Xavier! Like you know, i'm a massive fan of your Oddworld Library.
And agreed with Erwinraaben55, The new blog is sexy

Pretty neat. I'm liking the color scheme myself.

Pretty nice! I just hope there's enough happening from now on to keep it supplied with posts.

Hmm... while the icons look good, it would be awesome if they could be made more Oddworldy somehow. If I ever feel like redrawing some of the icons, can I post them here for you to consider using?

What icons are you referring to?

Oh and if you guy have any constructive criticism, we'd love to hear it.

I was referring to all the icons.

The folder icon, the bullet icon, the search icon, the calendar icon, the comment icon, the category icon...

No can do, last time I made a joke about your "late" update I got negative reps for it

Me not risking that again!

No, really nothing to comment, it looks fine for me.
