Title: A note from Paint Touches
Post by: PaintTouches on May 09, 2013, 10:54:40 AM

First off, Mark and I want to reiterate again how gracious the mods here have been to put up our RSS and funnel over a large amount of traffic over the past two years. If it wasn't for Scoop, we'd probably still be getting 55 hits a day.

http://painttouches.com/2013/05/09/a-thank-you-to-all-our-readers/ (http://painttouches.com/2013/05/09/a-thank-you-to-all-our-readers/)

We decided to re-design the site a few weeks ago to make it less bloggy and more newsy and the result is finally up. So if you would spot us one, please click the link above or go straight to your bookmark and take a look around. It's a large endeavor moving 600+ stories so there are sure to be some bugs we haven't found yet.

We love serving the Marquette community and want to keep improving, so drop us a comment here, or on the site, or on Facebook or on Twitter about your thoughts on the new design or the site in general.

Thank again,
Andrei Greska and Mark Strotman

The only thing I'd like to see more of is updates in the Warriors abroad section. Understandably that's probably pretty hard because they are of coarse abroad, but if you guys can do it that would be great. Thanks

Well done guys!  New layout does fit the newsy look you are going for.  From an aesthetic standpoint, (being nitpicky here) maybe the colors could be modified a bit.  The blue maybe a bit more navy, yellow a bit darker and more gold, and the baby blue less vibrant.  I know most people probably don't care too much about that though :)
