Site Updates

Welcome to the All-New Guide to SFoT!

After months of hard work, I’d like to welcome you to the all-new Guide to SFoT! It’s probably obvious our website has been completely remodeled with a brand new look and feel. The biggest change by far is that the entire site is responsive, meaning it should look great on a computer, phone, or tablet.

I started Guide to Six Flags over Texas nearly 6 years ago due to it intersecting two of my passions: web design and Six Flags over Texas. It became apparent the old site was starting to look dated on desktop computers and was virtually unusable on mobile devices. After months of research and late nights of work, I’m proud to unveil the all-new Guide to Six Flags over Texas that should help it stay current

More Work to Come

Though a majority of the website is online, there is still significant work to do. In the interest of time, the site is currently missing dining, shopping, and entertainment venues. These will be added once the park re-opens and it’s apparent which pages need to be copied over from the old design, and which pages need to be updated.

Various other content is missing since we focused on the main sections (like Special Features) and ride pages.

Feedback Requested

As with any new site, there’s bound to be bugs and errors. Please report these to us through the contact form.
