SWR Staff - Executive Evaders99 Posted March 3, 2005 SWR Staff - Executive Posted March 3, 2005 Here's a couple of questions: Should we stick with small fonts defined on the site? Vote on POLLDo you like the aqua/blue on black color scheme? Or would you rather see some different colors?Should the site expand to all widths?

dinochick Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 Do you like the aqua/blue on black color scheme? Or would you rather see some different colors? I like the colors as they are Do you want some new graphics? ya, that would be great http://www.dinochick.com/dc_saber_banner_02.gif
teukros Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 I pretty much like the site as it is with one exception: Menu items at the top (like Home | Downloads) should also be visible on the sidebar on the left. (I do really like the color scheme) Oh one other thing... I would like to see more emoticons! Put an overpowered Solar Ionization Reactor in between two cheap-ass engines and a couple of laser cannon, put a chair with a rudimentary flight control and targeting computer on top, and surround the (unpressurized!) pilot with enough armor plate so he doesn't fry in a tenth of a second... riiiiiiiiight

SWR Staff - Executive Evaders99 Posted March 3, 2005 Author SWR Staff - Executive Posted March 3, 2005 Get me some As to the links, its something I am trying to work on. Navigation is a key issue I want to fix. While there is no Home button on the sidebar, there are the other links. Right now, its in a different order. Navigation issues - please post on that thread Evaders99http://swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif Webmasterhttp://swrebellion.com/images/banners/swcicuserbar.png Administrator Fighting is terrible, but not as terrible as losing the will to fight.- SW:Rebellion Network - Evaders Squadron Coding -The cake is a lie.
kaja Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 I found some If you want http://anakinskywalker1.homestead.com/files/vader.gif http://anakinskywalker1.homestead.com/files/lightsaber2.gif http://anakinskywalker1.homestead.com/files/tiefighter.gif http://anakinskywalker1.homestead.com/files/stormtrooper.gif Do you like the aqua/blue on black color scheme? Or would you rather see some different colors? I think you should be able to set you're own color schemen Like Main color, Black, Seccondary color Green. Should the site expand to all widths? Yes! Do you want some new graphics? OOooo, Yes... new top Bar/banner. http://i151.photobucket.com/albums/s152/Dave-Mastor/Cluster6.jpg
Lord_La_forge Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 Well, if you have the site layout, I can help you out with design and new graphics, if you want to...
AdmiralFishface Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 Get me some We could always make some of our own. Who's with me? I don't really like the color scheme. Black works well as a background, but blue clashes a bit with aqua, methinks (although I've gotten pretty much used to it now). Perhaps grey instead of blue? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v436/RiesstiuIV/Krempel/trapaure.gif
Mad78 Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 I quite like the graphics even if it would be nice for the site to change and put on a little moderner look.Please do not change the resolution of the site.I have a crappy graphic card and my PC doesn't work well with a resolution bigger than 800x600.Maybe we could have a kind of competition where people could propose banners. The best would be used for the top of the page. http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance
Trejiuvanat Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 New banner top image? Yes. More emots? Yes, I'll see if I can find some. Color scheme? BG - Black : Yes Aquablue : Nay. Gray'd be nice. http://www.swrebellion.com/~jahled/Trej/banner.gif
Guest JediIgor Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 Should we stick with small fonts defined on the site? How else do you propose? Maybe some kind of cookie thing where only the main body text changes? (and you'd click to select text size) I'd love that hehe . Do you like the aqua/blue on black color scheme? Or would you rather see some different colors? Well aside from the obvious more colors would need more work, I think all the regulars here are used to the aqua/blue (as am I lol). The question I'd like you other folks to answer as well would be.. Are you used to the scheme? If you are not, is it good? When we remake, should we choose to keep this scheme, should it be the default? Should the site expand to all widths? Or should it be optimized for 1024x768 resolution? 800x600?I like it expanding the way it is now.. hehe.. but we can have some kind of minimum size like 800x600.. Minimal size is probably up to the graphics designer if he wants to make several designs I'm all for it .Do you want some new graphics? Yeahh

Lord_La_forge Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 WHATCH OUT with those emoticons! Most of them might be licensed!!!
Guest JediIgor Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 WHATCH OUT with those emoticons! Most of them might be licensed!!! Hmm.. good idea.. how would we check? I wouldn't put them in the default emoticons list either (only if you hit "View more emoticons")
Mad78 Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 Well, depends where you got the emoticones from. If they came from Smileys Xtra (the firefox plug) the site of the project says where all the emoticones came from. http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance
Darth-Griffin Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 The font i believe is fine as it is. As for adding more emoticons, i would be against this as they can easily end up overpowering a thread if used too much. There is also the issue of longer load times for dial-up users. One gripe i do have is that the definition between post and signature needs to be clearer. At present some peoples sigs look like they are part of the reply. AS for the site colors, i beleive that the black background is good but the definition of the white text can be very harsh on users eyes. One thing i have done is to change the white text to an off-white of light grey. For examples of backgrounds to text please find this link> http://queen.rett.polimi.it/~ant/webutils/140colors.html Other than this i do like the site http://www.diplomats-empire.com/forum/images/smiles/drink1.gif http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/2350/darth1b3bu.jpgVisit the forums > The Galactic Core Forums

Darth-Griffin Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 Give me an hour and i will see if i can find the code for you. http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/2350/darth1b3bu.jpgVisit the forums > The Galactic Core Forums
Darth-Griffin Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 Ok you need to open the 'Viewtopic.php' file and search for this line: - $user_sig = '_________________<br />' . str_replace("\n", "\n<br />\n", $user_sig); Replace the _________________ with something else or just increase the size of it to make it clearer. If you add the < br > (no spaces) tag in front of it you should be able to add another line too. Hope that helps.

Darth-Griffin Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 Oooopppps sorry How about changing it to something like "---------" as this would sit in the center and not right against the signature. http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/2350/darth1b3bu.jpgVisit the forums > The Galactic Core Forums

Guest JediIgor Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 Well, anyone got any other suggestions for new graphics? I went through the EZboard archives yesterday and thought maybe we can have little star wars icons (heads?) next to our names.. for example Thrawn would have a little blue guy next to his name. Also, maybe we can offer some more avatars? Shrunk down pics from Rebellion Reloaded would be appropriate, don't you think (since it is after all ours and nobody's gonna sue us for that )?
