Ok well if you havent noticed, we now have music trivia! Yay!
People were having problems with the files not reloading correctly so I engineered a javascripty taht sets a meta refresh for only the main page. Thus every 300 seconds, it will automatically update. This was becoming a problem when there was just a raw meta refresher.. in the middle of a post and poof you're back to the main page..lol So thats what the java script takes care of.. Its really quite neat when yah come to think of it. You can look at the page source and find the crazy comment section (please dont remove XD).
We also moved all the little link banners to Jammers host and redid the affiliate table. (ARGH the original code was so.. n00bish...)
I gave it a pretty background and font for affiliate and also cut down on code size too ^^;
And well thats about it.
If you think theres any other code tweaks you think should happen, please tell us! Looks pretty good now tho.

Good, good, now can someone please tell me how to mess with the news fader? I just want to know, I probably won't do it.

The font tags...so many font tags...*remembers looking at it*
I don't like font tags, other than the occasional color or size="+1" or +2 for titles...

@ Tilly: I've actually found it nicer to use CSS and font tags. Thats what I did at the Union.
theres the main css file:
http://www.anzwers.org/free/zoids3d/text.cssand have a peek at the code for any page at the union. all the font tages are short and sweet: <font class="bleah">....</font> and such ^^

Well, classes are different...
*remembers tables without CSS, twitches*
HaTcH - August 28, 2004 09:15 PM (GMT)
I dunno, I think having classes like TD.spacer {...} is alot more efficient than how they did it here... Its the same concept but it lacks structure.
...
label { cursor:pointer; }
img.attach { border:2px outset #EEF2F7;padding:2px }
.googleroot { padding:6px; line-height:130% }
.googlechild { padding:6px; margin-left:30px; line-height:130% }
.googlebottom, .googlebottom a:link, .googlebot...
now then theres the css for my site...
...FONT.orange
{
COLOR: #FF6600;
}
FONT.green
{
COLOR: #00FF00;
}
FONT.small
{
FONT-SIZE: 11pt;
COLOR: #BBBBBB;
FONT-FAMILY: Sans Serif;
FONT-WEIGHT: normal;
}
TD
{
TEXT-ALIGN: center;
VERTICLE-ALIGN: top;
FONT-FAMILY: Arial;
FONT-SIZE: 12pt;
COLOR: #FFFFFF;
BORDER-COLOR: #000000;
}
...
of course the board will probably truncate the leading spaces... but it does look real nice.

Howz about a banner for the forums?
Who'll do that? Me.
What do I need? A list of what Zoid(s) you want on there, background color and/or effect, and ... well text will just say "Zoids Evolution Forums"
But uhm, we need to agree upon what Zoid(s) to use and background stuff...size, I'll do that mahself.
Uh...if it's wrong topic, I apologize, but I just went with this topci since we did a revamp and that this would fall under taht category.

As long as those Zoids aren't Führer, Blade Liger, Breaker, or Liger Zero. That's just kinda old for a banner....
HaTcH - August 29, 2004 06:48 PM (GMT)
Lets try and stay away from 3DCG images too.. If you can get the list of Zoids, I can produce screenies direct from the DVDs at stunning resolutions. (including the first 18 eps of CC)
Zelos - August 29, 2004 07:19 PM (GMT)
I just want you all to knowm I did not write that code. I got it all from InvisionFree's support site, I don't know anything about CSS or all that stuff.
JammerLea - August 29, 2004 07:55 PM (GMT)
I kinda figured that, Zelos. Don't worry about it. I don't really know that code stuff either. ^^;
König Warrior - August 29, 2004 09:14 PM (GMT)
Only Hatch does, lol. Because I sure don't.
Blade - August 29, 2004 09:15 PM (GMT)
Hatch, Maverick, I'll start up a thread that will basically review the Zoids people want and then we can kinda have a vote thingy or something; I'll figure it out though lol.
Thanks Hatch.
And Meverick, I will make sure those don't go on a ban, though i wanted to see BL XD
