www.freewebs.com/archipelagoexodusOk, so it's nothing fancy and I'm not done yet, but here it is! My attempt at finally giving us a main page! Now, obviously a little help would be nice, maybe from someone who's handled a freewebs account and knows all the nifty code and everything. And of course, your suggestions. What do you want on the main page? Anyone wanna offer to do movie or music reviews? A videogames section? The Exodus Writing Archive? More people talking to birds? You name it! (BTW, Pohatu, I'd like the original banner to Science Question of the Week if you would. It was in your sig then disappeared from existance.)

Disappeared from existence? Not hardly! Well, I'd say this gives me some incentive to actually get back to work on these comics...

PM me info stuff. I've always wanted to learn to do web design stuff, and I want to see how much freedom we have in designing a free web page.

I took a class in webdesign and was also in the group that made our schools website. If you need help I'd be glad to.

I've never taken a course in webdesign. Then again, I've never taken a course in drawing or digital art.

That leaves one more person whom Lee planned way back when to be able to edit the front page.
Me!
Can I have the login info too, please? I'm not a web design guy like Bulbs, but I think Lee wanted me to cover posting finished stories, RPs, Mafia records, and stuff... Or maybe I'm just making an excuse to get the login info?
It's a mystery!

Sorry for the double post, but I made a "Mafia History" page with info on Mafia I (later games coming soon) and it doesn't show up on the homepage. And when I click "view" for Mafia History on the list of pages you see when you log in, I see a blank page (other than the navbar and banner).
But anyone who clicks "edit" will indeed be able to see the entire thing I posted for Mafia I!
I'm befuddled.

Hmm.. so after a little looking around, I saw a "Downgrade to HTML mode" button. I'm gonna make another account sometime and try the HTML only version to see how much freedom I can get, because I've been dying to learn/teach myself AJAX properly. Unless there's another way of inserting scripts into pages with the site-building mode.
If my test works out, we could possibly just downgrade your site to HTML and copy and paste all the source.

Well, I'll just shamelessly repost what I had put up on the Feedback forum a few months ago. I'll be glad to help. ------------------------ I can draw, work on Photshop/Illustrator, 3Ds Max, coding, and writing. A member of the week/month sounds good. Someone should interview him/her and post the interview online to get to know that person a little bit more. I'm still writing (rewriting, actually), one of my old Pokemon fanfictions. I might post it here, so that could also be added, though I'm not sure if it's good since I haven't gotten reviews for it yet. (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3231273/1/) I used to do the reviews and articles for the Pokemon games on Pokeschool a long time ago. I even did several Pokemon of the Week. I wasn't that good back then, but I've gotten a lot better. intelligentgamers.wordpress.com/2006/12/07/the-legend-of-zelda-twilight-princess-review/That's an example from a recent website I intended to do. Because of time issues, I just haven't been able to write a lot of stuff on it. Still, if you guys needed another writer, I can just drop the project (or merge it with the Exodus) since it's not that important to me at this point. With a larger reader base, I'll definitely feel a lot more motivated to write for it and find some time. I would like to say that I could also do Anime and Manga reviews, but I really have never done one and I don't know if I could or how would I do it. And don't count me in for Movie reviews, 'cause I suck at it. Can't differentiate Arnold Swazeneger(sp?) from Sylverster Stalone.

How do I make it so that certain pages don't show up on the navbar and can only be accessed through a link on another page? I don't want all the Fiction and Poetry pieces to show up on the navbar -- I just want them to be accessible through the Creative Writing page -- and I'm sure this problem will arise for other fields as well.

you just get the links to the pages and make a hyperlink and then hide them on the navbar
|

Post by Beelzebibble on Jul 28, 2007 20:21:38 GMT -5
Right, but it's the last step that throws me: I don't know how to hide them on the navbar.
EDIT: Never mind, figured it out.

Can't differentiate Arnold Swazeneger(sp?) from Sylverster Stalone. I can. One is ch00b's governator.

Who added the encyclopedia? What information will it contain?

Post by Tout-Perd on Jul 29, 2007 15:04:54 GMT -5
Me. It's where we'll dump the completed stuff from the ORP encyclopedia. I'd be much obliged if somebody would do it, but I'll do it when I get home if need be.

I'll do it if no one else wants to, but I've kind of already sold my soul to this website and I don't want to exclude other people who have more knowledge in this particular field (Andurin?).

Post by ch00beh on Jul 29, 2007 15:33:04 GMT -5
I've got the entire encyclopedia on a text file. Somewhere. I'll send it to you along with all my stories... when you ask for them... >.>

Post by Beelzebibble on Jul 29, 2007 15:37:10 GMT -5
I had to ask for them? I didn't realize! I thought it went without saying that I'll take them any time you want to send them over. That goes for the encyclopedia, too.
