Welcome to the new look Frontline Gamer Blog

Look it's a new banner!!! Now stop whinging that my blog looks shit!!!


Yes I'm back with a snazzy, well snazzy for me, banner and a slightly revised look to the blog. Huzzah I say, Huzzah! Yeah so it is all still in garish purple and pink but it wouldn't be me if I wasn't offending your vision, or making your eyes bleed with the searing pinkness of it all! I've gone through all my old articles and tried my damn hardest to clear up any typos and mistakes. I've also cleaned up some layout issues on my reviews etc. I've done all of this because I know there are shop keepers out there who have been using my reviews of my board games in particular, to explain to customers why products might be for them... or indeed not. I've added 'Link Within' because all the cool kids blogs seem to have it nowadays and I want to be hip to their jive too! I've also started using 'jump breaks' so people aren't bombarded with a massive wall of text when they first load the page up. Obviously the moment you're foolish enough to click on the read more option, you'll be hit by a wall of text... you have been warned.

The biggest change though is my glorious new header or banner or whatever the hell its called, the pretty thing at the top of the page and this blog. What? I've got to milk it! I think its 'mint' (well its pink actually, but you know what I mean) and I did work bloody hard to make it as utterly awesome as it is, as did my other half Dr Brainiac with her Kung-Fu Photoshop skills. It was a collaborative effort and it's all our own work, well apart from the artwork in the background! Yeah, so it's not as super awesome as some people's headers and banners, and OK it is probably way too pink for most of you, but it's so now darling, and some of you need to get hip with the groove! You might have noticed however that there is a shocking amount of artwork in the background of the banner from a number of the games that I play, and I want to take this moment to acknowledge the awesome artwork and the artists who did them. I'll be doing a blog on all the individual pieces of artwork at a later date, because the artwork that accompanies the games we all play does so much to enrich our understanding of the universes we all play in, and sometimes we take it all for granted.
