I think this would be a really good template for our homepage. I know the banner shows call of duty but we could have Whit3y make a sick ass banner for the homepage and we could customize it how ever we want it. However if we use a template of some sort I dont understand how we can incorporate php stuff like having a top5 post count or like a shot box since those are made in php.

Well, as I told deadbeat, that is y'alls project with decomp at the wheel. I know nothing about how to apply stuff like that and frankly, it gives me a headache. So, just let me know before you guys actually apply anything to the site so I can preform a full manual backup.

McBooty i know you said this stuff gives you a headache but me and deadbeat were wondering if you knew thisss..
When we do the the homepage we want, how do we make it the default page that you go to when you type www.dc-forums.com ? We thought it might be something to do with the web hosting service or something

It is in the code if im not mistaken. You have to set it so it uses the Address of www.dc-forums.com to go to a dc-forums/******* It is just a matter of putting it in the Address code, Which i'm not sure where it is. Mabey Mcbooty does =P

This is what you get if you join DC.

Yea, I know how to do it. I tried to start us off having a homepage but I couldn't get it to work properly. But yes, it is in the FTP on the server side. I am just worried about getting the forums to match. that is my only concern with this

Well I that Whit3y, decomp and me should just focus on customizing the homepage and get the links and stuff working and then see if we can figure out how to make the address go to the homepage.

Psh the links are easyyyy.
The only thing i have no clue about and that im going to leave to you is the PHP or whatever stuff like the top posters/shoutbox ect.

I still havent gotten the CSS code for the homepage i can only see the HTML by viewing the source code of the link you showed me xD

Well shit I thought I put the files in a zip file but maybe I forgot to post it. Anyway I already deleted the cod image and I already messed with most of the links, but Whit3y I definitely wouldnt mind if you would look over those links and make sure they are properly done. Also if you need the cod image to get an idea of what size it was I can alway give it to you later.

I do have an idea though for the image. I think that the banner should incorporate some of the games that we play. I think it should be a mix of cs or cs cz or cs source, TF2, Eve and maybe O game. I actually plan on reinstalling DOD in the next few days so we could even put that up maybe.

Cool, the links are fine, the only thing you really had to do to check them was to click them happy.gif.
Also, for the members thing thats already in there, i think we can just change the text to say the users name and instead of doing the normal member list thing, we can do "elite members" or something with just us people that have been here the longest. For the pic if all else fails we could resize each persons avatar and me and mcbooty will probably have to make ours not an animation, but you never know maybe not.

Edit: Yeah im gonna mess around with the members section.

Another edit =o what a suprise.
Yep it shouldnt be too hard for the members we can just change the links but i thought it might be cool to leave the pics they are pretty cool xD maybe we could even change our avatars or put the images in our sigs or something xD
I just changed the names in this one incase you wanted to see. Just delete the current one and put this one in (that samee folder you have all the other stuff in)

I also wouldn't mind just having are actual picture and I do like the idea of having only people that have been here a long time on the homepage. I mean right now all of use have been here a long time but in the future I think it would work well. Well Whit3y if you have time can you start working on a banner. Also maybe at some point we can add an html page to each of the members from the homepage kind of like our last forums. The bad thing is I really liked how blackburn did it and that was not hard coding our profile instead he made like input boxes. Anyway we dont have to worry about that right now. However I dont think that login link on the homepage works the right way Whit3y.

Oh I almost forgot Mcbooty when you have time do you think you come up with short paragraph basically just stating who we used to be, who we are and what we do or something like that.

I forgot to look at the dc myspace. I'll have to take a look at it. Well since I already have my username and stuff saved so when I click log in and gives me an error saying I must be registered, but I still have the option of logging in. So basically I think is should just go to the login in page and let me login without the error message. Also Im not sure how this will work but once the homepage is the index how will it work with logging in. like on the forum page when u enter it is shows that Im already logged since I have it set to remember me.

LOL hopefully that all makes sense.

Also Whit3y I think we should change the text to a brighter color of white. What do you think?

Just put the image file that is attached in the images folder and you shouldnt have to change anything with the coding - its named the same as the default one was.

Dude that is fucking badass man. One thing I think it is just a little dark on the right side of the TF2 pyro character. Do you think you could lighten it up a little just so you can see his weapon a little more? If not its looks awesome.

I guess so later. Im also playing with the code to make the menu headers a slight shade of each character on those sides (goldish/blueish/redish)
But the right and left menus use the same CSS code so i need to make a whole seperate div for the right menu and make another div edit thingy in the CSS
See? im learning wink.gif

Im sorry to double post but Whit3y besides possibly lightening up the pyro weapon can maybe extend the banner to the right a little. It kind of hangs off to left. I resized it a little so the width was longer but the banner is black so u cant tell the difference.

Yeah the point of the banner and blackground being black was that you couldnt tell the difference smile.gif uhh i could try messing with the code to re position it.

And also its really not, or atleast it seems to me. I think it might seem that way because the text is on the left.
