RE: Reg calender

March 30th = birthin' days

Luis Disses Masterswordman

as much as i don't like seeing the big guy (luis) pwning the little guy (msm), i have to agree. the guy already post 10 one line posts a day. do i have to look at a poorly made sig everytime he does?

Please, not yet. As Luis said, with the months not even done yet, I don't want to have to go back 20 pages to find the birthdays of people posted on January 5. Buzzwerd is posting a preview of what we have of January soon though :)

Edit Button
I know there is no actual topic about it.. but i have wanted ot say this.. I have seen recently too much people saying that we should have edit buttons.. I always thought there were no edit buttons to keep better track of people's posts..because some people could edit older posts and the threads may lose sense.but on the other way you could avoid double posts on change little mistakes.. I personally would like to be ablo to delete some posts i dont feel very proud about.. past post.. i remembered now that i saw truedarkness' posts about not giving our birthdays yet.. i actually didnt read the whole thread before posting..and i felt like a spammer..and went like 'ugh..wish i could erase that'... and remembered other posts i dont feel proud about it.. i dont mean my noobish posts asking for help.. but other stupid ones.. hehe..
so are edit buttons good or evil?

RE: Edit Buttons

they're really only useful for the first post of a certain threads. it's good for collabs (updating members lists and other rules) and threads like AS Main (instead of poor denvish trying to post links to all of the AS on the last page and then locking it didn't quite work out).

otherwise, i'd say it's only good for covering up retardation. i have plenty of idiotic posts, and they'll live on forever. it's just the way it goes here on the BBS

The Calender

Here it is! I did the layout, and True_Darkness coded it! tell him to make it faster, because he wont listen to me:

You forgot an apostrophe. Should be "Buzzwerd's birthday".

Other than that, it seems really cool, if ever so slightly laggy.

Calender Preview

I am impressed it came out so good. Very nice.

That's not actually my birthday, just a test :)

And it is a bit laggy, and I didnt know it was gonna be, but I dont feel like redoing it. Just dont throw your mouse around or try and run over all the buttons and it shouldnt lag enough to matter.

A little laggy for me as well but it looks great, really holds the feel of NG. Now you just gotta do all the other months ^_^

What happens if theres two important events on one day? eg. My birthday & Halloween?

Then we put both events on the same box, if theres more than that, you'll be able to scroll. The plans are indefinate really, but theres a solution for almost every problem.

that rollover effect is really bothering me. my whole computer like comes to its knees cant you just turn that off.

I would change the background to grey so it fits in with the NG colour scheme. Also, the beams in the background you shouldn't see the start point of them, change that (see pic).

Would it be possible to put some sort of search box in? I'm not sure how possible that is in flash.

Calendar

are you using AS to make it enlarge and change colour like that or are you using just a tween? if you changed it maybe it might loosen it up a little

Calendar

That looks awesome. The rollover runs a little slow on my computer but it looks really cool.

We're using AS, not sure what tweens would fix.

This is only a preview really, so we still have plenty of time to fix all the stuff you guys have problems with. My main concern is only the lag, I really dont give a shit about how visually satisfying it is, as long as it works.

Something fucked up on my post, so here, to answer all the problems.

Luis:
I wish the problem was the flash at the beggining of the pop up, really we're not sure what it is, but we'll try and fix it.

Mogly:
Gray Background looks horrible. And I guess I can change the beams in the background, generally pointless, but people will bitch about it so sure.

Shirt_Turtle:
Didn't mean to take that out, TD just did it cause he can't read.

Peturo:
It's AS, not sure how tween would make a difference.

Re: The Calender

It's looking pretty good, but as they said before, it was laggy. And what's up with the flash symbol above the tank at the bottom? Oh well, good job.

Alright fair enough, no need to say it twice boy-genius.

Hey guys, I just animated my sig, but Fireworks refuses to export at full quality >:(
It persistantly 'optimizes' the bgcolor (which is supposed to match the forum, #24272B) and now it looks off-color. I've played with the export settings, but it just refuses to export at perfect quality.

Any ideas?

I didn't feel like making a new topic for such a problem, and a good lot of you are artists

Try doing 'Image preview' from the file menu. This is the same as 'Export for web..' in PS, it tells you the estimated file size and all that.

Sig Trouble

Why didn't you just do it in flash? Its a good sig either way though. Impressively simplistic.

Yep precisely. I expect to see this sunnuva' up in chip shops across the world, with naked pictures of Cybex.

RE: NG Calendar
I decided to try my hand at creating a NG event calendar in php...it was mostly an experiment, but let me know what you think and if you find any bugs...I've got submitted events being emailed to me for approval before they're posted live.

Looks great, i like the design. The flash one is good, but if Tom was to pick one for the site, this would seem most appropriate. Anyway, nice job Buzzwerd and boMtoons, the both look good :).
