My new card set designs (very temporarily) slowed down a tiny bit over the past few days, but that's simply because I've been working extra on moving closer to the eventual real/complete version of PinballBoy.com... That being said, it's time to start unveiling some goods for what this "official launch" holds for Pinball Boy! First off, I'm excited to share the official logo: so let's get right to it!... (the new logo can be seen at the top of the site!!!)

You may be wondering, "Why the heck do you need a NEW logo when you just started the site!?!"... Well, in all honesty, I liked the original PB "logo", but it was just a placeholder - I made it in about 10 minutes. It was too small, off-center, and the name of the site wasn't even the focus of the design. So really, it was just never actually meant to be what people identified with when they came to the site. The overall idea was there, but the execution was not what I wanted to be the final product.

Anyway, I know, it's just a logo, who cares? But really, this little logo will help push the eventual full version of this site and ideas of what I plan to bring to you all one step closer to reality. Plus, from my standpoint as a designer, logos are kinda fun and they tie a whole "brand/idea" together. The new logo will go live on the site today, and on card designs moving forward (the card designs feature a nice little ".com" addition so people know where they can grab the cards).

And so it's known, I'm currently eyeing a few options in late-February for the real launch. Honestly, I'd still call the entire site the "beta" version right now. The other big feature of the site is something I'm working tirelessly on to make awesome!

Until next time,

Super quick update. It was just now brought to my attention that the Game Of Thrones rule card sets had a spelling error (one of the Multipliers had a double-typed set of letters). Nothing huge, but my apologies - and I've just corrected the error on all three versions, and now they're all good to go via their respective download links!

(And as I always mention, if you see an error on a card (heaven freaking knows I'm only human, ha), please feel free to reach out. I'm a sucker for details, but sometimes these little things slip through the cracks - especially when you've been staring at a design for an hour!)

Until next time,
Chad

Hey all,

Wanted to share a quick update to a somewhat small (but very user-friendly) change to the navigation of the site... If you have a look at the Rule Cards link, instead of just going to the "New Rule Cards" page, it now has a fancy little drop down menu that can take you to the following: New Cards!, Browse, Most Popular, View All Cards. I figured this was much easier then having to click on the Rule Cards link, then click on View All Cards at the bottom of that page... Plus I thought having the brand new Browse and Most Popular pages would be a good way to round out all the ways people can discover new cards for their machines.

I've also added a new page that is still somewhat of a work in progress. Under the Info link, you'll now see a page called "Printing Help". My goal is to eventually make this page a source for fixing any printing errors you may come across.

Until next time,
Chad
