    …Dude, haven't you figured it out yet? Dirty hipsters are what TIGsource is all about. This site is made by dirty hipsters, for dirty hipsters, out of dirty hipsters. If you're not a dirty hipster, you are on the wrong site

    And I wouldn't have it any other way.

    Magic Pink! Chosen for transparency masks the world over, because no one would ever actually want to draw in that color. :D

    But I like it! I don't know why I like it. I just do. It's very 80s, isn't it? Which is only appropriate with the pixel theme.

    instead of showing its own five videos, it could display a playlist of hand-picked videos that were used in the blog or are otherwise relevant. or you could start a tigsource youtube group and ask youtubers like me to join it and submit their videos to the group, where they'd have to be approved by the group founder.

    Very nice !

    I love the new design, except for the pink. At first I liked it, but it gets tiring very fast as it draws too much attention.

    The search bar is back, so I'm satisfied.

    Looking forward to the inevitable alternate skin that offers an even less palatable lime green to replace the pink.

    Wow, this is great.

  • Yeah

    Did TigJam happen?

    I meant using it for original content. There's nothing stopping a poster from linking to videos from another channel, anyway.

    But we will definitely hook up with your account and a few others. And those are some good ideas! Just gotta take care of a few things first…

    1. A number of my old posts' custom images got messed up by the new textured background too. *shrugs*

    2. I'll clean up the sidebar real soon. A bit right now, even.

    3. TIGWiki was not so great the last time I checked. It doesn't strike me as useful to the average downloader of indie games, either. Seemed more for a handful of weirdly obsessional folks in the community (who already know all that trivia anyway).

    Links to Pixel Prospector and Moshboy's list(s) would likely serve people better… I'll put those up right now, in fact!

    The pulse box in the sidebar is really ugly and crammed in there, and it _really_ needs to work from one page to the next. Otherwise, nice stuff.
