CadetStimpy Posted March 16, 2016 Author Posted March 16, 2016 It's lookin' nice! The Pac-Man maze in the background was cool. What veteran Gamer doesn't recognize that? Quote
DOS76 Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 Yeah that looks very nice. I have the forum page bookmarked so I don't see the home page usually. Quote
CADScott Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 That looks awesome! The homepage was looking a bit dated, looked too much like a blog site, but now it looks very professional. Great work Jason! Quote
Jason Carr Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 Thank you guys! The plan is to slowly update the rest of the site to match. Gonna be a while though because we have other priorities as well. :) Quote
Lordmonkus Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 Any plans to upgrade the forum boards to not take so long to refresh and load pages ? Quote
Jason Carr Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 Yes indeed, but it's going to be a while. PHP sucks, that's the problem. It's already on killer amazing hardware and performance is lacking regardless. We're going to be moving to a new forums solution eventually but it'll be quite a large undertaking. Quote

Yea if we want to keep everything in-tact, which we do, it will be a gigantic update. I wanted to show everyone how awesome the front page was a while ago, I am happy you all enjoy it! Quote
Jason Carr Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 Just this morning. Was wrapping it up earlier today. Quote
CadetStimpy Posted March 19, 2016 Author Posted March 19, 2016 Do you guys (meaning Jason and/or Brad) build the Website yourselves, or do you send it out to some Web Developer with the idea, and they code it for ya? I'm gonna guess you guys do it. I built (using Notepad) a kid-like Website back when Netscape would fit on one diskette (mid-90's). It's still around but I can't get past the Home Page (with a click, anyway) using either Firefox of Microsoft Edge, 'cause the little spinning applet I had (I didn't write any of the applets I used) to click on to proceed is missing, so I'm left adrift on the first page. Maybe I'll look into it one of these days... P.S. How do I link a name (such as Brad or Jason up at the top ) to the member's forum profile? Quote
CadetStimpy Posted March 19, 2016 Author Posted March 19, 2016 BTW, I really like the way the major icons spin as you approach them - even the LaunchBox Cube in the upper-left corner. Bravo! I liked the "The cake is a lie" and "OCD all over your collection", too. It's great that despite your brainiacness, you guys have a sense of humor. Quote
SentaiBrad Posted March 20, 2016 Posted March 20, 2016 Yea Jason builds it all, he's good at it too. Yea people now day's have website building easy. SquareSpace is an amazing website for that sort of thing. What do you mean by link a name? You mean like @SentaiBrad or @Jason? All you do is use @ then the users user name, so @CadetStimpy. Sometimes spaces do and don't work too or in Jason's case it's just @ Jason since he changed his name afterwards. Quote
