Refering to the new MSFN look to come.
You know how whenever Microsoft announces a new operating system release date and the date gets pushed. I know it is a lot of hard work and you guys are as anxious as anyone.

Hey, I am a MSFN Junkie tongue.gif
I can't wait any longer biggrin.gif

FthrJACK

zivan56

FthrJACK

fthr: Even though you know I am 10% n00b at this stuff....Payton and mt2, the co-admins at my site, know so much about IBF its not even funny.

You should start some posts there if ya need help, and who knows, maybe I'll get my sneak preview I've wanted tongue.gif
Aaron
Our new system isn't even IBF tongue.gif
FthrJACK
i dont have a question about ibf...

Thats a DHTML menu.. nothing to do with ibf bud smile.gif take a look at the link.

LongHorn
sry bout that, thats not what i meant, I know php/html maybe I could help out..I know mt2 = coding wiz
MSNwar
/* NEEDED STYLES */
div.slideMenuBG{position:absolute; left:0; top:0; z-index:1}
div.slideMenuText{position:absolute; left:10; top:6; z-index:200;}

Can you change the top from 6 to 0?
FthrJACK
that would move ALL text down further.
it needs to be 6 so that the main text on tne buttons is aligned, thing is it affects the buttons in the sub category also sad.gif

Just to ask one simple question ... will it be done this year? smile.gif
MSNwar
Its getting hot in here. Time to take off all your clothes biggrin.gif

Sneak peek ?
FthrJACK
it will be done when its done.. which is looking like early new year im afraid.
everyone is busy with exams and stuff, or like me setting up a business, thats taking up most of my time, heh maybe we could sell some MSFN tee shirts or something too newwink.gif

things are progressing dont worry, just.. the new sites is huuuge, well it will be, when we open it expect a lot of the new sections etc to be empty while we get them filled up, we need more guides etc, already have a lot of those but more the merrier. maybe experties will post a list of all the guides we have so far, if anyone feels they can add to them feel free.. talk to him about that not me, experties and aaron are doing most of the content for stuff like that i think.. and me and xper the coding etc.
You wouldnt want to have us open a site thats broken and full of script problems, slow page load times etc would ya? blink.gif
LongHorn
Yes tongue.gif

Either you or Drew told me it would be done the week after Thanksgiving
FthrJACK
i cant tell you when thanks givin is so it wasnt me
FthrJACK
a little update for you, tonight i have been working very hard, and going without sleep. and we all know i need my beuty sleep.

Anyway, ive so far fixed almost al of the problems that where holding the development back and annoying the hell out of myself and xpers very tired walnut sized brains.

time to completion, if we get time around holidays and family stuff this time of year? --> before 2003, possibly 2 weeks smile.gif
aKaFrEE
YAY!! w00t .. i wanna see what all this is about
FthrJACK
we will have all the 56k users moaning like crazy the first time they load the page is what, and im optimising stuff as much as i dare, using background images all over the place..

If Aaron clears his chache out and then loads the page he can give me and idea on load time, it will need tweeking a lot.. and theres more images to go on yet huh.gif
xper

How fast is your conection?
xper

aKaFrEE
i'm guessing you guys decided to no go on the design you were working on?
FthrJACK
huh!

got your shovel and spade out for that one eh arkafree? this thread is a YEAR OLD!

lol smile.gif

The design we had was very nice yes, but too graphical. it was much too heavy to use, and if we tonned the graphics down it meant we had to take many features out. hence we dropped the idea.
aKaFrEE
just a little over a year though. i was just looking through and saw this and wondered what happened, i do like the design we have now tho.
SKiTLz
ahh crap. I was reading this like their was a new design coming. I should really check dates before hand. haha
