Quote from: RobbieThe1st on September 13, 2008, 03:19:25 AMTechnical question:
According to the post, at least as I interpreted it, the website(www.missmab.com) will have multiple skins. How will this be set up? Will you have a selector and the selected skin stored as a cookie on users computers, or will it be simply a URL arguement(E.G. http://www.missmab.com/index.php?skin=evil)?

Also, last I heard, there was no PHP or dynamic content involved, and Amber was simply editing the source code in notepad/a text editor.
Will the multiple skins either A, use a server-side dynamic set up, B, simply have multiple pages, and Amber is stuck with editing two or three pages for each update with the same data, or C, we have one page, like it is now, and all skin stuff is done client-side with Javascript?

Sadly, I have no money(not a cent available to me now), so I cannot donate anything, but I am perfectly willing to donate time - If there is anything I can do, just ask.

Thanks,

Its not going to be two skins, just one, either good, or evil, Or maybe the mixed one if there is a tie..

Someone liked my mixed theme idea..  :mowhappy :mowdizzy

Mwa

I voted for the secret spotty option.  :>

This has not yet been decided.

We'll see what happens when we get to looking at the code, and figuring out how we can make it happen.

k? Good.

The site will undergo a recode, one way or another, though. With the way the site currently is setup, the skins would be hard to implement -- much harder than if we just recoded the beast with extensibility in mind.

And it'll make it much easier to implement any results of possible future skin wars.

Well, I've no money to donate, so I can only hope that Amber's computer needn't be replaced, and that she needn't pay for Photoshop again.

And Darkmoon, bluntly, I do not care for your artwork.

Here's the good news. Neither does Darkmoon. ;-]

In all honesty, it'll be Mab art on the site, not DM art. Probably. There may be a few things DM does, but the overall look will be a Mabby look, not a ICVD or CVRPG look.

... unless we get really inspired. In which case you don't have to use that theme...

Well! I have to say the skin war has been a smashing success already. Amber's got more than enough for a veerrrry nice tower... but don't stop!! I want DMFA to come from a supercomputer setup! Mwahahaha!!

And yesh, if I were to lay eyes upon the artwork of Dark, I think my eyes would be full of fire and bleach shortly there after.

Feel free.  It'll save the mods from having to yell at him.  Especially since two of them are volunteering to do quite a bit of extra work as a thank you for people helping Amber.

As a sister with a brother, I can tell you that nothing is more gratifying then having them SEE it coming, and trying, unsuccessfully to get away....

Mm.. Perhaps That ^^ is why i like Wildy so much haha

If we're talking about drawing, it really isn't.

However, the skins aren't drawing. They're layout.

I'd agree, but that would break my policy (no feelings no problem). We may have the Mario, Luigi thing going on but I can still whoop him, he can't out run me either. >:3

Drawing, layout I cant tell the difference, and you would be wasting time explaining
(mostly cuz I don't care) :)

One is done with photoshop, the other with a browser.

I'll leave the differences to the reader...

You said that Able should get $5000 for nothing.  He's asking for if you offering your credit card to pay that.

Hey I never said I do it, I just said he should get $5000 for no reason. Lets go hold up Fort Knox, we'll think of something. >:3

I wouldn't think I'd have to explain the difference between drawing and layout. Amazingly, the fact that you don't know the difference leaves me with the feeling that I don't have to care about explaining it. Excellent.
