Nearly two years ago we launched TokuNation.com with two goals in mind – build a friendly and helpful community, and create a website that fans of tokusatsu can follow for the latest news on all their favorite shows and toys. And for the last two years, we’ve been very proud and very humble of the friends, fans, and followers that we’ve made through our forums, our Facebook, and our @TokuNation Twitter account. It has been our absolute pleasure to get to know every single one of you and to give all of you opportunities to win all the contests and giveaways that we do on a regular basis. All of this, everything we do, is for you guys and because of you guys.
So for starters, THANK YOU!
So after two years we decided it was time for a face lift. We wanted to upgrade our visuals while still keeping the ability for the community to interact directly with each news post, but also integrate social media in to things. So here’s a quick run down of some of the major changes you’ll see right on the front page!
– Social media integration in to each and every news post (if you’re signed in to any of those social media sites and you click the button, you can “Share” the story through your account!)
– A complete search engine for every single news post, ever, through a number of options including Major Category (IE: Kamen Rider, Power Rangers, Super Sentai), Shows, Toy Line, Characters, and Companies. Try it out – you can now look back through 2 years of history with just a couple clicks!
– Featured stories – self explanatory!
There’s still so much more to share with you on what has changed, what is new, and what is still to come! To find out all the details, either click the title of the story, click here, or click on the ”Discuss on the TokuNation forums” link at the bottom right of this post!
Thank you for two years of support – we will continue to strive to meet your, as well as our own, expectations for many more years to come!
It's been a fun ride so far everyone - here's our face lift! We hope you like it! So for starters, let's run over the changes.
Front Page Changes
- Complete search engine for news stories. Search by major category (Kamen Rider, Power Rangers, Super Sentai, etc.), or by Shows, Characters, Toy Lines, and Companies!
- See those social media icons on each front page post? Clicking those will allow you to share our news story on your social media! Try it out, it's pretty nifty!
- Our front page is now powered by Word Press and heavily, heavily modified to meet what we needed. If you click the news story, you'll see the beginnings of the discussion on the forums for that news story! Clicking "Discuss on the TokuNation forums" will take you directly to the thread
- Check out our new front page on your mobile device or tablet ... it's much friendlier than our last - including CLICKABLE BUTTON SPOILERS so you don't have to try and copy/paste the spoiler to see what it is!
Forum Changes
- Godzilla rises! Check out the new Godzilla forum!
- TokuNation.com News goes away! No more need to post a new thread for news stories on the front page, we'll link to the thread in progress wherever it may be!
- The size of the files you upload has been increased
- A brand new forum skin to streamline with our front page
- A ton of backend changes I can't really speak about, but its going to improve performance
- And more that we'll outline in the future!
Please post your comments, questions, and concerns here. We'll be more than happy to answer them!
Thanks again guys! This is all for you!
The size of the files you upload are larger? YESYESYES!
I'm digging it a lot, thanks for the new tokunation.
Phenomenal. Very clean and welcoming. Great job!
Awesome redesign! Great job!
*blinks* Whoa, almost didn't recognize the site at first. Nice work ^^
so beautiful. I love it!
WOOT!
Digging the new look.
This is hyper neat, guys. It's like Toyark's layout, which means we have the awesome forum dropdown button!
Though I do have ONE question as I'm replying this, is the reply box supposed to be far to the left of the page? There's a big gap to the right that makes me think it's supposed to be centered.
