After about a month of slow development, I have finally decided to show a new aspseek.org site to the public. Contents is almost the same as one at the old site (which is available as old.aspseek.org), it's just the appearance what was changed. Site now feels more clear and elegant to me; your opinions are warmly welcome (Hint: use "Reply" button below).
New site uses CSS2 (including CSS positioning), so users of "old" browsers (like NS4) may experience some problems. Solution: upgrade your browser (I just do not want to use HTML tables for page layout anymore).
The most exciting thing about the new site is a new forum. To tell you the truth, I was extremely disappointed with the old "home-grown" forum used at www.aspseek.org before: it was ugly, cumbersome and hard to deal with. So I was just unable to use it and help ASPseek users solve their problem. Hope that new forum will fix the problem. New forum (which uses PHP and FUDforum software) has a large set of abilities, including avatars, skins, polls, formatting and what not.
But the coolest thing is mailing list integration, which works in both directions. In other words, new messages in "ASPseek users" forum are mailed to the aseek-users@ mailing list, and vise versa - messages from mailing list appears in forum. That essentially means you can use your e-mail reader and forum.aspseek.org site interchangeably. I'm amazed, to say at least.
Disclaimer: please consider the site as beta; there may be some bugs etc. Please send bug reports about the site as replies to this message, and do not forget to tell you OS/browser and attach a screenshot. Yes, I'm also interested in testimonials as well
