pushplay, you're a fucking retard 

That's what my mom always said. 

keep spoilers about your mom in its dedicated thread, thats what it's there for 

i've forgotten what the PQ ftp details are for uploading files to hosted sites, can someone remind me please? The intranet site either doesn't have it, or hides it well due to terrible navigation. 

dully noted... will definitely scour up some reference pics for you. :D

Initial idea for my website splash page here:

http://kinn.spawnpoint.org

No content yet (except a download for Bastion), so none of the links work.

Bear in mind that I know next-to-bugger-all about the technical side of web design, so the code is probably "less than optimal".

What I'd like to know is: does it display properly in your browsers? What do you think of the basic concept? Does the name suck (256 Shades of Brown)? Bear in mind that the "Bastion" link will become a proper "Maps" link when I finalise it. 

many thanks to the venerable Scampie for providing me with h0stage. 

After many long minutes waiting about data from your web site... aaaaaahhhh.... it finally appears... and I feel a little disappointed having waiting for a so long time for a so crappy message....

Gateway Timeout

The following error occurred:

Server unreachable
Please contact the administrator.

Is the server down or something else ??? 

oh, that's dissapointing. Yes, I just tried it and I can't reach any spawnpoint sites atm, so the server seems to be having problems atm. 

I will look forward... and give you feedback ;) 

 

Yes, it works fine !! Weel, It's a pretty cool start page compared to mine 8P..... So, just an advice, IMHO the green use for link should be replaced by a another brown shade... to follow the web site title ;).. That's the same for purple links already visited... Otherwize, it's rather nice... I like this global "building top-level view"..
Just a question: what tool do you use to build your web page ?? 

Thanks for the crits. I kind of like the colourful mouseover and visited links, but I guess that's because there's only so much brown one can take ;)

Btw, I used Photoshop 7 to make the graphics and Dreamweaver 3 for the html shenanigans. 

Thanks... A friend of mine give me DreamWeaver (I don't know the version) and I installed it on my PC: sure I will refined my web site using this tool, as far everybody told me the tool is really easy to use... for "dummy" like me... ;) 

Speedy linked this gem from way back in 2001 when Grindspire was a mod (somehow) and headshot occasionally crawled out from his mappers den.

After reading it and having a good laugh, I think we have actually mellowed quite a bit since then. func_msg is a quality place to have a discussion for a few reasons I think.

First, only two moderators, and very good ones at that. (Yep, I mean it scampie)

Second, fewer regular posters. We're all used to each other by now with now wildcards thrown in the mix to start a giant flame war.

Finally, contests and group projects always end up with people upset at one another. At the moment, there is no speedmap, no chainmap, and no gimmicky contest. Just people (slowly) churning out some good maps.

I was kind of sad reading that too, because I think alot of people who posted regularly were driven away by that kind of flame war. I know Killaz and XeN never post here anymore. Aard rarely does, and Lunaran has only come back recently.

So here's to learning from the past, and being an even greater group than we already are, in the future. 

omg they got two floating platforms in empty space it looks so cool blah blah
