layout thread discussion

wintersforge · **layout thread discussion -** 07-06-2004, 03:23 PM

if this isnt an appropriate discussion thread then delet hack as whoever sees fit. Im of the opinion that the 2 that are up now leave me bored and wanting for something more spectacular. They seem drab and like everyother site? war image at top...menu on side...now if you are into that type of stuff then god bless ya...but ....

now if i had a lick of skill and the time id throw my hat in the ring but IMO 20+ years of reading comics and being involved in art in one of its many forms lends a credible critique. I put this out there cause there are some here that post not knowing a lick about what they speak of...id like to see a much more outlandish approach, but not to outlandish that the general public will pass it by..

ps Saag and chicken tikka is good oOo:

Really what else did you expect with a war site..it seems fit to have war images...

strvs · 07-06-2004, 03:34 PM

Eh i fucked up on the bottom of the banner a bit, ill have to edit that and resend it to badscript... oOo: And for each game button, when you click it a sub-menu will pop up with the game sections, and i will have a header for each section..

the war imagery isnt what i find unappealing. that my friend is a given..its the layout. meh the images could be blended maybe a bit differently..instead of creating a website how about trying to create an ATMOSPHERE freak: beer:

ive surfed a ton of warsites..historical/clans/games/you anme it...and so many of them were cookie cutter like the 2 in the top. now im not here to discredit an artist or their work im simply saying that aesthically...id like to see something different that all the 101st/bob/3rd army/5th divioson/nub squad/sites...

Well you really cant put alot of your creativity into it, because you are making it for someone else, trust me, ive seen alot of them too...but im doing this for someone else, so i have to do what looks good, and its easy to use, easy to navigate, and you can fit alot of content in...I could come up with a million different layouts that are far from the regular squad/clan noob page, but i really think badscript wants something like the one hes got now, just better looking.

Eames · 07-06-2004, 03:43 PM

a flash intro to the site would be cool

IMO you can do that and knock his conservative socks off as well...if the grand scheme is to cover all military fps shotters thant it sure will suck as a "vet" to look at basically the same site that was buried... eek:

strvs-its nothing personally critical about you as a person. i say screw conservative, site by the numbers thinking and let loose the dogs of war...

strvs · 07-06-2004, 03:46 PM

I guess i'll give it a shot.. rock:

I agree. If it is something that is really awesome to look at, Badscript won't care if it's in the "certain layout". The whole point of it is to look good. So, make something that can be unique and eye-catching.
