Hey guys,
Time for my yearly appearance, and of course a new design - V4 -or what ever. With last years ultra failure of a launch, i hope this new one will please the crowds.Here are the templates (not all work yet): http://www.vacantview.com/64 Who can guess who's blog i copied for filler text?Lets follow in the footsteps of our masters…http://i.imgur.com/HtIPi.jpg
Make the activity feed and user info SCROLL WITH THE PAGE.
I agree with Ferret
Well if you think about it, each segment of text (whether broken manually or automatically) is classified as a "line" on a device. Therefore, using a <br /> to break a line manually makes sense. xD
I put "in school" in quotes because I'm not really learning anything I didn't already know. I've been doing web sites for years and learning what I've done wrong as I went along from others. When I got into the program, I was allowed to skip 40% of my classes because I already knew everything in them they could teach me, so when I got into the program I was 'ahead of the other students', according to the teachers. Everyone uses Dreamweaver, and I do it manually. They've complained, but they see good results from me without it. xDI'm glad most of you like it. Just keep in mind that these are templates and can and should be modified. I'll pass them off as is to who ever will be coding them. I don't really care if they decide to change things up a bit. Its really just a launch pad of sorts.
I'll admit, I have been abusing bootstrap. Mainly because it's my first time using the thing and also because I wanted to make it real easy for the programmers to plug in other bootstrap bells and whistles. About the breaks… I use them cause I get lazy. I hate making classes for padding and margin when I can just pop one in to seperate things, you know? But I understand where xememic is coming from. Anyway, if anyone wants to take my shitty code a step further, send me some pm love and I'll hook you up with the sauce.That looks pretty cool, although there are 2 "recent activity" areas, which I think could cause some confusion.
Wow this looks cool!
I think everything looks good BUTThe navbar sucks. Here may be a better group of options:(Home) | User Page (or "Login/Sign Up") | Games | Examples | ETC | qDB | Users | ForumsThen when you click "Login/Sign Up", via jquery a form will slide down and have the fields in the format of the current login (with a sign up link next to it).Also, less white space after "newer" and "older" on the top games/examples? Or take out the heavy border under the light diag lines…. I think the heavy lines make it look like its less important under there, like the bar on the bottom of V3 here.I like the text up top of comments and game submissions that dont belong in the user feed. Maybe make the text a little smaller, and put the time stamp next to it to show that its very recent.? (would help make it less confusing)I agree with an arrow to show more recent feed. Might take a little extra effort, but would be cool.Then because of what i mentioned above with the login slide-in, take out the login fields at the bottom, but the copyright image on the left, the searchbar on the right, and leave the very bottom bar for those goodies.:D
