Help with the Q-gears website.

Did i need to? Its in the scource!

Right...and every website that I, and everyone else for that matter visit, checks the source first. 

it IS in the head

Wow, for someone who doesn't know who ButBut is, you sure talk like him.  I remember a thread a while back where someone got yelled at for trying to help out but2002...

[VincentVal]

I didn't yell at him, I just explained to him it was like that for a reason, now why does everyone keep comparing me to but2002? It seriously gets anoying

[Covarr]

I would not recommend stealing from peoples service, My neibor was stealing bandwith from our router, and he got arrested! BUT! if you ask them, then pay for it, Im sure they would gladly accept, now all you have to do it get that anntenna extended to your Living Quarters

The capital letters "BUT" is kind of a trademark for but2002, and sometimes even with an exclamation point immediately afterwards.

I did a search for BUT! And I get this: http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=5046.msg65969#msg65969
but its 3 #3 out of 11 different post and it only happens once, so I don't see how you would make that conclusionBecause it doesn't seem like a trademark

EDIT: I searched BUT and but2002 does not appear

[RPGillespie]

Actually it is entry #2/3.

Of course "BUT" won't get you but2002 results; "but" is one of the most commonly used subordinating conjunctions in the English language and is probably used 100+ times a week on these forums.

[NobodyImportant]

To get back on track here, I'd like to note that the tabs without an array entry redirect to news. "?pg=news" is a dummy home page, unless halkun wishes to keep it as the first page visitors see. In the end result any entry into "?pg=" that's not found in the array redirects to the home page, which as of right now is "?pg=news". See how it works?

I'm just going to put the link in my signature so you'll never be looking for it.

EDIT: Guess not.

....subordinating conjunctions....

Ironic, Just took a english test, last question was about a Sub. Con. Identifying thm, EASY!

Methinks that is a very interesting thread...

If you'll notice, about halfway down, VINCENTVAL makes a direct comment to but2002, and Jari makes several connections between Butbut, ALPHA_WOLF1, and VINCENTVAL...

Ok, sorry, won't post anymore in this thread lest it's relavent, just thought I'd point out that amazing coincidence.

[VincentVal]

Agreed, i was a guest on this forum for 5 months now and I managed to nab a copy while the link was still up, I might have dzuigo turn it into a legal patch

THis is not a direct comment to but2002, this was an agreementt to the fact that the topic was resurected, and it was removed because it was illegal, and I traced this file and nabbed it befor it was shut down, so how am i commenting to but2002?

Back on subject ( b4 this gets locked )
Halkun? how do you like these designs?

Not only that, but there seem to be more interesting coincidences. Both of them seem to use Clantemplate's ready made templates, VINCENTVAL here and ButBut here. If I recall correctly, both previous forums of AllGamingNetwork were phpBB boards running a ready made template, too.

Unless I'm imagining things, the previous incarnation of AllGamingNetwork site used the oh-so-cool mistyping, "romz". Just like this url does: http://romzforum.awardspace.com/ They seem to have switched to "roms" nowadays.

Anyway, I'm kinda sorry for derailing the topic. I did have a reason though; if this is the one-and-only ButBut - who has in the past and still continues to spread warez (here and here and here) and has been banned from here at least twice, you don't want to be associated with him in any way.

Well, that's it from me. I suppose that halkun might want to split the VINCENTVAL's identity crisis-part of this topic and throw it to the Unrelated, or something. Kinda shame about what happened to perfectly nice topic.


EDIT: Darn, I found the first AllGamingNetwork-forum. Sadly the second one is probably gone for good.

NothingImportant : I see this overlapping issue is fixed, thanks
Unfortunately, the color problem with the banner is indeed there and I really don't understand WTF is going on (tried something offline, didn't work). By the way I think it isn't worth worrying, the final logo has a white background.

VINCENTVAL : No offense, but I highly doubt an table-based HTML 4.0 design satisfies halkun. The design is nice, but the coding part is really out of date and not easily maintainable.

[NobodyImportant]

Okay, I finished copying the FAQ. http://www.rexyrex.hostmatrix.org/qgears/?pg=faq

I'm not sure what I should have done with the "taking it apart" section, but what's there seems to work. Now, instead of working on the other tabs, I'm going to create some better PHP framework (the current one is gross ) and start making the FAQ load from MySQL (then cache until an update is made). Alongside that, I'll start making an "administration panel," where various things can be edited inside of the script, no file editing required. Right now the FAQ is static. Since I'm having such a good time working on this (even if I'm not doing it as fast as I should/could ) I'll probably throw some flashy AJAX into the mix. Of course, javascript won't be required. But it'll make it look nice.

As for now, I'm going to wait for some more input on these ideas and the current look of the page. Constructive criticism is appreciated.

[Covarr]

I like the style, though the quick links and the tabs together seem a tad redundant. Also, how easy is upkeep?

[NobodyImportant]

Thanks, it went threw a couple make-overs.

About the quick links, I agree. Maybe I'll leave the project page link and change the other links to maybe this board and gears, or something similar.

[halkun]

I'm eyeballing the thread. (I have a final next week) I'm really like Covarr's. Mostly because it seems very extendable, but it also looks nice with a clean interface.

I think it's the green-geared qgears logo. I really like that.

I'll let you guys hash this out for another week.

All of you who are creating these pages... Thanks a lot!

No response on mine? http://romzforum.awardspace.com

[Covarr]

My design is pretty much finished, so now I'll just add content and see how well that works out.

[VincentVal]

Covarr, I think you will be the one to get put up, and doend sourceforge support php and MySQL?

[NobodyImportant]

Yeah, he's using PHP also. He slapped in some sort of script to read the RSS for him. I made my own.

Ah, a huge blow to the self-esteem...

[VincentVal]

If it does, I think that once someon's site gets put on the sorceforge, that it would be nice tio set up its own forum, apart from Qhimm's

[NobodyImportant]

I disagree. The forums here are already setup, have content of their own, and two forums would create confusion and disorganiztion. However, that's a discussion for a later time.

[VincentVal]

I see where you are going at, but when new visitors trip upon it, it would using this forum wil probobly cause a bit of confusion for them, but on the + side, Qhimm will get advertised

( Mabye its time for a site remake for Qhimm [Celebrating 2-3 years!]  )

It seems not to render correctly in firefox. There are things that look like buttons that aren't buttons, and odd astectics. The Bright blue+grey decorations don't look right, it appears like something's missing. (content? Border?)

[Covarr]

VincentVal's site renders about the same in IE, as far as I can tell. But it is very table heavy, and I know firefox has trouble with tables, so alignment could have problems.

[NobodyImportant]

He didn't even make it.
