    Might also want to learn HTML properly so your site is actually viewable on other OS/browsers instead of a blank screen and someone saying "It's going to blow".

    Least that guy was right.

    So your saying doing all the pages on my site will take how long???Whats a could of hours?Dou u mean a couple?
    Well it takes a long time to do it compared to Homestead.
    HTNL is much mor stable and solid than Homestead.

    JESUS!Newbies to something should be respected because there only learning.

    newbies shouldnt also be arrogant enough to go advertising their site as 'pro-gamer programming' site.

    a pro-gamer who programmes a web site will be an expert, not a newbie. why didnt you post up sayinh, 'hey, this is my first site, what do you think' and peoples critcism would have been less harsh and more helpful...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,099 ✭✭✭✭WhiteWashMan


    god, what has happened to me, i was never this sensible before?
    maybe it was sublininal messagiig on that site?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 310 ✭✭Cerberus


    No man, I think you got the analogy wrong. Primary school babogs shouldn't be going lecturing to people in secondary school. One other thing - "newbies" should not be respected, they should be respectful to those who could teach their "newbie" asses about sh1t. If you did your site without a wysiwyg tool it wouldn't be 4 pages long either.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 189 ✭✭Mr Pussy


    Yeah ok WhiteWashMan I agree that I shoud of said in the 1st place that I woz a newbie.
    But sorry,what do you mean by "maybe it was sublininal messagiig on that site?"? tongue.gif

    Cerberus thats good info about "If you did your site without a wysiwyg tool it wouldn't be 4 pages long either". cool.gif

    man that kind of skill is just impossible to fake. I wish was that l33t.



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,859 ✭✭✭logic1


    Well Mr. Fanny I actually haven't had time to do myself a page yet. Busy with other projects (check out nethousegames re-launch soon kids).
    Anyway enough with the blatant advertising. Fanny the fact is even if you are a newbie that site still sucks ass. I'm not talking about the code or structure or cross compatibility but even the basest elements like the colors are horrid.
    Just my opinion, try not to cry again.

    .logic.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,313 ✭✭✭Paladin


    Yes it does suck, but so did my first sites (anyone see my hidious ICAL site?) but after a little practice you get used to making neater more presentable pages.

    And in my experience, wysiwyg editors suck ass. I havent met one that isnt as buggy as a ant-hill.
    I use notepad :P (because my coffecup trial expired, and i cant be arsed finding another editor, and at the end of the day notepad is fine except finding fukin colors smile.gif)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,859 ✭✭✭logic1


    Actually ladies and gents for colors goto www.yaromat.com and they have a snazy color picker... it rox.. give it hex vals and it gives u rgbs and vice versa and lets u preview your color scheme before u commit.

    .logic.

    Mr Pussy, if you're going to plug your site as blatantly as this, you should be prepared for some criticism (especially considering the site), and not lose the cool whenever someone knocks it...

    I have to say that the colours you picked fanny are absolutly brutal. That said everyone imho is allowed to make brutal sites for the first one.

    /me hopes no body remembers the really really bad ShadowLAN site!!!

    But you do get better (another shamless plug for the soon to be relaunched nethousegames site!!)

    On the subject of wysiwyg editors. They are the best way to do things quickly (I'm not really talking about Frontpage here). DreamWeaver 3 is an excellant proggie. That said I dont think that ppl should be ignorant to html and should be able to edit it without a WYSIWYG proggie.

    Fanny dont let then put you off it, keep tryin and you will get better. but considering that you are a newbie to it, have respect for those who are l33t....
