New Fansite (is upgraded to vol. 2)
« on: June 13, 2008, 05:41:35 pm »

I've spent now couple months on this project. Site name is *juicy* and domain/ adress is urquan.zymichost.com
Layout and couple sections are now ready. Site is totally unready and lots of files are missing, but go check it out still!
If there is something that belongs to someone or is made by someone who don't want it there,
email me!
And try to understand my poor english! :p

Feel free to email me Zarren3 (at) Gmail.com

Old site

NEW 'juicy*: http://juicy.net63.net

Your site has too many different colors. And there should never be any moving or blinking objects.

I hope you will fix these points.

Good point. You are absolutely right about the colors.
Thanks!

Cool page, I like it, you need more content  but that takes time.

One thing I dont like though, when you click on a section, underneath the Green nav bar is this rose coloured bar that says where I am (like 'Wallpapers'). I dont think it adds anything, and I think it just clashes visually.

Personally, I'm not too fond of very intensive websites, and especially not sites using Java applets...

The content you're featuring (especially your work for Nicholai's mod) is excellent, though.. Good job! Smiley

Like the changes.

Under links, Id add the Toys for Bob page. Though it doesnt get updated alot, they are the creators and people who love SC might be interested in other games developed by the twin gods FF and PRIII (http://www.toysforbob.com/)

And also the Ultronomicon (http://wiki.uqm.stack.nl/Main_Page)

I added thus links. Thanks for advise. Cheesy

I also loaded some upgrades like the www-formmailer which lets you mail an email from an www page. ( hope that works! Cheesy)
There is also a new bling-bling -php-thing: a online counter! (it shows how many people are online, hope that it work too! I'm not a wisard with these things.. Tongue)

Then the NOT good news: Zymics server doesn't let my gallery use phps 'mail function' so it cant send mails to users. my other server does let use the function but doesn¨t support MySQL which is required for program. So what to do?? Embarrassed

ADDON EDIT:
I solved gallery problem by deleting it Angry
There is some new wallpapers and guestbook is now working.

ADDON EDIT (5. July)
I'm going to move my site to 000webhosting.com server because of downtimes and other problems with Zymic.com.
I will notify here when work is done.


ADDON EDIT ( 13. July)
I've decide to make new layout for my site! And I also add lots of new content to my site!
I think that I get this thing ready in couple weeks.

I suggest everyone completely disregard what I'm about to say now about the wallpapers-section of that webpage...



...1280 x 1024 isn't 4:3.

You're absolutely right about the thing. 1280 : 1024 makes 1,25, not 1,33 as 4 : 3 makes, so the right resolution is 1280 x 960 pixels.

I've been traveling / hiking in Finlands lapland about two weeks, so I haven't post anything here or updated *juicy*.
Next updates will be:
-Fix the downloads bug
-Add more Photoshops
-Add Forums???
Then comes question for you: Do we need forums for *juicy*?
#cons:
We allready have these forums, and Pages now and forever does have foorums and there is couple other SC related forums too I think.
#pros:
Forums would help to create a community, make contacting easier and would be easier way to me and others share content.

.... And then I you want forums I have another question for you. Do you like read black on white or white on black

EDIT: Just add one question and make this clearer
1. Does *juicy* need forums?
2. Do you like black on white or white on black?
3. What kind of a contect you want from my site?
