still got "Feedback" though...

i'm thinking about making the buttons bigger, possibly adding a little of the metal stuff i used in the banner so it all fits together nicely.

Okay, well I have a ton of time this weekend to work on anything I want because 50 pounds just got lifted off my back today when I finished a project, so if anything else needs to be done (other than nav bar) or if anyone has something they want me to add to the site or anything I'm open to suggestions.

btw I can't think of anything for my location so I'm about halfway through Balance Point.

:chew: Trans :chew:

how bout finishing up that coralskipper

if you're looking for stuff to add to the site, i think it'd be nice if we could have border on the sides kinda like this site see how its got all the content in the middle, then that vertical border, then one solid color?
i dont know how much learning/coding that would require, it'd look nice, but its not necessary if its too much work. (i would design the border, i'd just need you to figure out how to implement it)

okey dokey, here's the newest button version. its a little bigger, tell me if its too big...and what you think of the metal/new font (put it on a black background, like the site, it really matches the banner)

i was thinking i'd use a different part of the image for each button...probably including parts of the firebreathers image too...

My Milkshape expires in 1 day(s) so I will have to buy it to finsih that (hopefully I can somehow talk my parents into getting it for me)

That border is a definite...possibilty I'll look into it

I really like the button but it won't work for me, I got the URL from properties and it doesn't work on the site or in the address bar but it is fine in your post.

EDIT: My progress on learning the border: http://www.freewebs.com/njoswbf2/banner.htm (so we will probably be able to do it) EDIT3: This doesn't work anymore

EDIT2: My search continues, it seems theirs is in a script or something...

thats weird about the button...can you save it and upload it to the site yourself?

& yeah i'm not really seeing any borders in that link. i know alpha said he was leaving or something but might you still be able to ask him about it? (or didn't he say dvondrake could help too?)

you want me to go ahead and make the rest of the buttons like that one? and hopefully at some point i'll get around to updating the banner further, with like a matching metallic semi-outline border thing...

oh, and i just realized i forgot to scan those sketches i did a while ago that you recently brought up...

I saved and uploaded the pic, which is a good size. I'll ask Alpha, all he said was that he didn't have time to build whole sites for other people. So you can finish up the buttons like that.

finally got those drawings scanned . sorry the tops got cut off a little. and the rakamats armor should be dark (it looks light because of the way i drew it, and i don't have the motivation to go back and fix it. maybe in painter...).



edit: finished the buttons too. they're kinda big, i think you'll need to set it up so either we have vertical navigation, or 2 rows

Great pics and buttons! For some reason the pic shrinks on the site so they end up looking smaller, and I already am going to make a vertical Main Menu.

what do you mean the pic shrinks on the site?


btw, i have several more backgrounds, if we need more buttons in the future.



edit: i decided to color the coufee in painter: (oh, and i changed the handle a little bit)

you can put that in concept art on the website if you want trans

what is that?

coufee...the yuuzhan vong equivalent of a knife...

I'll put it up, where do you guys think it would be most appropriate:

1. On the "factions" page where weapons are talked about or
2. On the "downloads/media page", but the button only says downloads or
3. On the "models" page where it would serve as CA for its model????

I'll put it up when somone replys, and I am also still working on the nav bar (can't get it to look just right)

I think you should set up a new place called "concept art"

Well I guess that depends on how much CA is going to be made, and I can't draw on the computer and I don't have a scanner so it is up to Dread, who is our only person making art. If you think there wil be more CA then make a button and I'll add the page, if you don't think you will be making a lot more than choose 1-3.

EDIT: Dread can you look through your stash of pics and get me some of some skips, preferably where you can see the cannons.

EDIT2: Look at the background info for a WIP of the nav bar

about the nav bar:
i dont think you really need the text "main menu", if you really want it tell me and i'll make a sorta different looking button for it.
also, please get rid of the ugly blue border
and, finally, the buttons were designed to be put on a black background, so they'd blend in. you might, uh, wanna change that. it'd be nice if you could change the gray border around the whole navigation to dark red.

also, my computers being really slow, but the factions button isn't showing up at all, and i get an empty box for the gametoast link (good idea, btw). the buttons also seem unevenly spaced (gaps between some, whereas others are touching).




you've probably already seen most, if not all of the skip pictures i have, but, here ya go:

there's also a pic of a skip on this japanese cover (bottom left)
http://www.theforce.net/image_popup/ima ... force1.jpg

and of course, the 'spiky' skips in that pic i posted a while back





and sure, adding a ca page, or maybe just an "art" page, would be good. some wallpapers or something...i'll make a button for that later

I know about all those problems and I am trying to fix them and thanks for the pics (trying to work on model)

The Gametoast one is my fault and I'm trying to fix that too. Also if you didn't notice if you click on the pic (coufee) then it gives you the full size.


woops just noticed I didn't put the faction button in

EDIT: I think I fixed everything but the GT button and the ugly border I can't figure it out so I'll go ask someone...

EDIT2: YAY I don't need help I figured it out

yup looking much better! i did notice that about the pic (you want me to make a title image for that? sorta like a button?), nice idea

Sure go ahead, and now we also need a art page button

hmm I'm a little confuse there is a dark red border around the whole navigatioin, not grey. The >>>Background Information and horizontal navigation just haven't been deleted yet because I wanted to wait to untill I knew the vertical navigation would work/look good.
