It is extremely fabulous!
I was just saying on my Livejournal - I'm amazed at how quickly its happened, especially when, looking at the new site, there's obviously a lot of hard work gone into the restructure. Do, Robbie, Scribe and everyone who helped out - you guys rock!
Particularly love the little toolbar type things down the side when you're browsing stories, so you can review and access stuff so easily.
This was such a nice surprise this morning when I logged on!

Then! It had changed too much! I was almost unable to recognize it when I logged few minutes ago. The look itself is great but please, don't change too often. I lilke the contrasts. They are still easy to read for me. I think that I will get use with it as time will pass.

This looks great guys. I can't believe how fast all the updates/additions came together. I can't wait until I have time to play in all the new catagories  |

Guys, how do you add new stories with the new look? Please, tell me, I'm completely lost!

If you go to the category you want to add the story to, there should be an 'add story' button. That's how I did it anyway in a couple of the TV categories.

After an initial panic - I really like the new layout! It is clear, and quick. I need a lot more spare time to play in the different categories now.
Thank you to all concerned! |

I agree. Everything is much more organized and it looks fabulous! I especially like the images next to each of the different categories - very attractive! Great job by the site admin and helpers!  |

Fantastic. I was lucky enough to get to play in the pre-release, but it sure is nice to see it all done and up and running!!

| The site looks great! Kudos to everyone working behind the scenes at OSA. A quick question. Since there are all these new categories, does that mean that you now accept fics that are not related to Middle-earth (ie. they don't have to be crossovers or such)? Just wondering. |

Even the Guidelines have been adjusted, so yes, if you have for example a Harry Potter fic, you can post it here.

Wanted to say I particularly love the challenge section! It's cleaned up so nicely, with all the pertinent info available but not clutter-y.
Good job, guys!
