New SwiftKit website - "CADS"



Over the past few months I’ve had a little project going of my own to redo the SwiftKit website. The previous one was functional, but a bit ugly. I’ve decided to take it upon myself to give the site a much needed face lift, increasing some usability and to give it just a bit more RuneScape-related content. It is finally done and live, with some noticeable new changes you should be made aware about.

Codename CADS (I’m Canadian. I like Canadian dollars), the new site feature a complete redesign of the layout with updated media and content presented in a much more readable format. Features include dynamic user count and download tickers, revamped about content pages, and the re-release of Staff pages are just some of the surface changes that were done on the site.



The online tools section has received a brand new themes database system, which as of right now contains over 7000 different theme variations ready for download created by the SwiftKit community. These themes are ready to be downloaded right now. Give your SwiftKit a fresh feel, take a visit.

I’d like to thank Strider, Zanith, and all of the SwiftKit staff and individuals that have helped along with development for this site. It was a lot of work, and without those individuals it would have been a lot harder.

Please note that there might be a few bugs or issues as a result of the switchover, and you may report them by emailing me at zpoon[at]swiftkit.net.

We’ve got more plans ahead for you guys. 2010 will be a great year for SwiftKit. We can feel it.

Simmo (SwiftKit Staff) @ 02 Feb 2020 11:54 pm

Raian the Fallen you can send it to simmo[at]bluelightdev[dot]com then i can pass it on the the rest of the staff. You should just not that we're not currently taking splash screens. However if it looks awesome you never know.

Raian the Fallen @ 02 Feb 2020 12:04 am

Totally unrelated, but who would I submit a splash screen to?

Wait don't worry about it there is no way to fix it, it has to be my computer cause on my home pc its fine. I'm on my laptop and its a toshiba tech 10 or something like that, its dark in my room i dont feel like turning on the light to look lol, notebook of course.

2002-2007 pk @ 30 Jan 2020 07:10 pm

also is there a place on this site that i can upload some kick ass screen shots =) cause im 99 strength 112 combat trimmed of course but ya i took some good ones with gs specs and i wanna post them, i know about the reg upload but those are sites that i dont know of and no body is going to see em, and i wont see opinions either if so just write above my comment post. (even though these are complains, this is still a bad little program and i love it, so don't think this isnt, cause it is very very helpfull in very many ways)


#11
2002-2007 pk @ 30 Jan 2020 07:03 pm

Ya thats what ive been doing is just closing the right side tool bar, but im pretty shure my computer is fine, it shouldnt be the resolution or anything such as that, I was hoping there was an option to drag the screen a little over to make it not overhang cause i like playing the screen in resized view. Also the tabs above the stats and radio stuff is coverd by the calculator tab option tab real world time tab and the screen shot tab, which i dont know what to do to uncover that besids the disable optiona and drag them all off which i dont wanna do.

Bartuccio3 @ 30 Jan 2020 01:15 pm

If your utilities are on top of your RS game window, you probably are playing on a computer set to too low of a display resolution. There haven't been any actual updates to the SwiftKit client so this shouldn't be the result of a glitch since I don't know of anybody else having this complaint recently. If you are already at max resolution or you can't change it, just try closing the right-side utilities; another option could be to just switch to a resizable game window if you don't already have that option selected and just play with a very narrow field of vision
