Oh, the blue bar is pretty atrocious! It makes me think of PowerPoint slides in the late 90's.
Why did they do this? The original site was actually quite pretty.
They could take a page out of ArenaNets' book and shoot for clean simplicity.
Or the could lose the awful blue gradient and write some code to make the background static and the main text box scroll, as it stands their webwrap is much too small, so it's a little jarring when you scroll the page down.
TERA Launches New Website
Looks like old website, but with blue spot gradient backgrounds.
In anticipation of their May 1st launch, TERA has been doing some tweaking behind the scenes, and today they've come out with a brand new website! In addition to looking brand new (and a little more blue), the new site features more manageable account systems and a TERA customer support knowledge base. En Masse Studios is also bringing their new forums online, but they do apologize if there are some technical difficulties in getting them live.
Also, is anyone else really bothered by that blue spot gradient background on the main text box? Maybe I'm just crazy.
