Im DONE! ! ! !

[Frosty_DUB]

Ok im done with the new site, if there are bugs i will fix them. Everything should work hopefully. Keep in mind this is the second website ive ever made.

http://www.auburn.edu/~keenerc/

Do you like it? Should this site change or not?

[Frosty_DUB]

oh i didnt add many people to the members section because no one gave me their pics, so dont whine. I just put up pics i could find. I didnt include mods or anything because i didnt have time. Maybe one day.

[Jess]

Dude..thats fucking phat.

[maxpsi]

I like it. :D

[Frosty_DUB]

well vote then :P

[insert_car]

fucking A that is sweet! nice job clint!

[WiggiE]

Let's do this!

[WiggiE]

Oh, just a correction: If you click on "forum" when you are in the "events" section, it spawns a new window.

All you have to do is correct this line:

A HREF="http://scar.std64.com/discuss/" target="_blank"


Take out the 'target="_blank"'

[grizoove]

looks great.

[hunnievee81]

it's very visually stimulating! i like :wink:

[Adam]

I like the design and the graphic works. Very nice job Clint (and whomever else might have helped you out on it)

If yall want me to put it up I'd be fine w/ that. I'd just first like to clean up some of the code (Dreamweaver, or AdobeImage Ready created I presume). They tend to add a great deal of bulk to the code that is unneeded, browser intensive, and sometimes not cross compatible with other browsers. I'd also like to web-ready some of the images. I dunno if we have any dial-up users on the board but, I'm sure their in pain loading some of the pages...

Other than that.... You have my OK. I also wouldn't mind altering the board template to reflect the new design look.

[Frosty_DUB]

I designed the page, mike helped with the logo and jess came up with the name.

I made the images as small as possible so they wont look shitty. Will it be THAT bad on dialup? I guess ill have to ask brock. I didnt know the extra code makes it slower.

I will make a little image for the top of the board too.

[linuxman51]

needa makeit where the car owners can update their shiznit n pics n stuff :) (fairly simple php code for that...)

[ActiveAero]

Man the site looks awesome! Great job. Load time for me is a little slow but I can deal with it. Besides I'm the minority. I'll have a direct link to the message board anyway which will be fine. The best thing is how you have utilized all of your features unlike this site. All we have is the forum even though there are links for movies, members, and events.

Also about the "extra" stuff....
Aside from the mess of html it produces. Adobe products tend to include everything in the final product including unneeded image files. The background of the page is black but, it will force the user to load black (solid black) images to fill gaps in how it sliced the images.

I'm not critizing you. It's simply the tools used to export the product weren't designed to optimize web content. All of these images are very easily replaced by <td bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> tags but, ImageReady does know any better.

[Frosty_DUB]

i could have done alot more in dreamweaver, but i guess i learned my lesson.

[WiggiE]

Props on the site!!!!

[Adam]

For a first try it's a great site... Stick w/ it... I can do HTML and PHP coding like a mad man but, I suck @ graphic design.... So don't worry

If you want to zip up the site and email it to me I can get it up ASAP when I get off work today (6ish EST)

[Frosty_DUB]

I should learn more about code, because web designers make more money than print designers. hehe.

I will figure out how to zip my site, but im on a mac soooo i dunno I will figure something out.

Yea and on the members page you can change it so people can add their own images and mods or whatever. And you can do whatever you need to to optimize the large pics on the site. I did as far as i could so it wouldnt look shitty.

We have Macs in the lab at work. I know they are good for graphics, but the more I use that POS, the more pissed off I get. Mac's for what I use computers for, SUCK ASS. The thing is ALWAYS out of memory and it has 512 mb.

[AU RSX-S]
