In preparation for our extensive coverage of BlizzCon 2009, I'm happy to announce that we'll be launching our Diablofans site redesign tomorrow! This change will be the first step in what will lead to many new features on our site, so it's definitely exciting to see it finally happening. While you wait for the redesign to launch, I have a screenshot of the redesign that you guys can check out (be sure to click on it to see the full-length version):
Keep in mind, this is just a sample screenshot sample and obviously not exactly how the final design will look once it's all filled in with content and background graphics. Please let us know what you think of the new layout as it's going to be a work in progress that we'll be adding onto in the coming weeks. And just so you know, that box above the "Latest News" area is where we'll be displaying new media as it comes in. Should be really nice. So yeah, make sure you post some feedback about it to help us continue to improve things here on Diablofans!
Hope you guys are all excited about this and BlizzCon. Just so you know, we WILL be holding live chats once again this year for ALL of the Diablo-related panels at BlizzCon. It was a huge success last year and everybody had fun getting the live up-to-the-minute updates, so we had to do it again. Make sure you're here on Diablofans at the appropriate times so you can join in the chatroom discussion with us!
Here's the current schedule for our live chats just so you're aware of them:
FRIDAY:
Diablo 3 Heroes & Monsters Panel
2pm - 3pm (PST)
SATURDAY:
Diablo 3 Q&A
11:30am - 12:30pm (PST)
Diablo 3 Art Panel
1pm - 2pm (PST)
And for those of you who missed it, be sure to check out Seth's post about the Gamescon Diablo 3 coverage for what is likely a taste of things to come at BlizzCon 2009!
Oh, good, I think I'll be able to be here for all of the live chats. They're literally a half hour after I get off work on both of those days. This is so exciting
Umm. Are there going to be any alternative themes/skins available? At first glance that looks quite glossy.
There will be two (in addition to this one). Right now we have this one and the SpeedVision design which are toggle-able via your User CP or the drop-down menu on the lower left-hand corner of the website.
Question: Are the titles (Zealot, Faithful, Sexton etc.) and generally everything about the user on the forums going to be the same, or are we going to see something new in that area?
There's always the possibility for new additions, but don't worry, all of your current forum accounts / titles / etc will remain as is. It's just a big facelift for the site at the moment.
We used to have an ad banner underneath there across the top on this layout, actually. I haven't seen it lately, though. Ads are ugly and intrusive, there's really not much you can do about it.

yeah but keeping them on the right looks nicer in my opinion. like it is now.
Livechat was greatly done last year, hopefully this time you will be just as good Looks good so far
Thanks Kwic, glad you enjoyed the live chats last year. We had a lot of fun bringing the news and chatting with everybody live at the event. I'm sure it'll be just as fun this year. Glad ya like the new design too!

the new ad below diablofans banner
Those ads used to be there actually and still show up here 'n there. These server bills don't pay themselves after all

Oh, no, we still get the top banner ads from time to time. They used to be there all the time, I thought, actually. I just never really view the home page. My bookmark goes straight to the rules list.
