Anyway, I do like AEBN. I just find their WL's to be very dated in appearance and aesthetics. Nothing is fluid. Gamelink's WLs are even more antiquated in appearance -- something that feels designed in 1998 by a junior designer who knew how to make nested tables.

I was, and remain, more interested in something much more fluid, responsive that would truly adopt our own site's look and feel -- and responsiveness to multiple devices and platforms, be it desktop or mobile WITHOUT redirects. I've yet to find any company who can offer this. Thus, we may just have no choice but to build our own and buy the content/feeds and just do it ourselves. I would have preferred to work with an established company, no question. However, I want more than a logo and change of background color.

BTW: you copied/pasted the html code for your AEBN referral URL instead of the actual code needed to refer a webmaster ;)
Fair enough and a good catch - maybe I can convert a lucky surfer

I hear you.. perhaps not the easiest task to go multidevice and all the way custom since the backend goes way back - on the other hand, who else should be the one to move first in the direction the consumers move than those, that hat have built a rock solid brand and also have the biggest amount of content / studios on board.

And talking about the management heaviness - yes I remember changing my postal address was exactly this complicated.

Curious to hear more feedback.
