Facelift

Well, since the vote is still 50/50 on the new way to organize the sections, I think we'll continue on the original plan to have separate pages for the sections. We'll still have the old sidebar available, which can be set with a cookie....still working on the code. Also, I've taken into consideration the feedback I received about the Windows/DOS emulator page...it now has a new look which is more ZD-ish, and I've split the 2 long lists into 2 columns. Isn't the color fade I did in PSP cute? :) We still get a lot of email asking where you can find a certain emulator...mostly the people who aren't familiar with emulation or with the site...therefore...we're working on an easy find system which takes you on a magical journey through the site until you find what you're looking for. Example:
  1. I use BeOS
  2. I'm interested in Arcade stuff
  3. It's a multi arcade emulator
  4. Aha! The BeOS port of MAME!
The easy find system will take you through several pages and guide you to it based on your response, and will show you the path you take so you can jump back to any step. Yeah, we stupify the process of finding something (read: Microsoft), but ZD is so huge I even get lost every now and then.
