Well, there's only four hours (by my clock) left on the discussion. watermellen and PrinterAisleBoy have yet to post, although PABoy did promise a post soon. I guess if it doesn't come that's ok. Although watermellen hasn't even shown knowledge of the existence of this discussion, so we'll see what we do about her.
OH! Right, you don't care about that, you're wondering WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED to the layout! Well, I got bored Saturday and tried coding, and did like 4 or 5 different things (image script, edit image script, upload image script, nhs import user, nhs individual hours) and just couldn't finish any of them. I got a little work done on each, but not much. So finally I was like "I want SOME sort of end product for the day that I'm happy with" so I started redesigning thespork.com. And at the end of the night today (sunday) I'm now finished. NavySEAL gave it his SEAL of approval (wow, I didn't plan that) and Jo said no, too much grey. But I kind of like the gray, and besides, I looked at it on my parents computer, and it looked like shit, and that's when I realized only reason Jo doesn't like it is because she (like my parents' computer) has an LCD monitor, and the color settings are never right on those bad boys.
So yeah, I added a .NET login in the upper right, eventually (my plan since like two years ago) regular users'll have logins as well (if they please). I removed of the journal (once in the lower right) because I never update it, and it didn't flow with the layout. I also added links in the upper right of each post to the post ID number. This way if somebody wants to link a certain post, they can copy that shortcut and paste to someone. Or if SporkOPS want to cite/quote a previous post, they can right click the post id number and goto copy and simply paste it into a link tag in their new post. It's conveniant is all. The News Archive at the bottom formats nicely with the new layout, I had to fix it up, as well as fix up the poll. The image script shouldn't have ever gone on the front page anyway I decided, so there's just a link at the top next to thespork.net's. Finally, New Logo!
Anyway, you can still visit the old layout if you so wish. It should be exactly as it was before, and always will be (and will continue to update automatically), however I won't update the journal, keep that in mind.
I'll create a poll that'll start tomorrow to ask how people like the new layout.
Admin.
