Really I mean, I was quibbling about the lack of features, but the part that will not cease to irk me is the unused space to the right, I just don't get it. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
oh yes i do :D |

i like both designs i was on xlt before watmm... so when I went to watmm, it was like overload and I really didnt like it... but after a month or 2 there... i got used to it i like em both equally now. |

a website should fit into a 800x600 screen, thats why. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
according to your respective post counts, you like this place roughly 3.0 times better. ya bastard! |
||||||||

800x600? Yah.... 5 years ago |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats the way it is... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehehe well,,, ive been here longer! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
spot on, phob....wish more web desingers thought like you... And it should be noted that Ubb BLOAT is probably why watmm has so many Bandwidth problems/down-time.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
??? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wrong assumption... there was so much downtime... because the host was screwy... my site is on the same host that watmm was, and whenever watmm was down... my site was too i think theyve fixed the problem though... it hasnt happened in awhile... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what hasn't happened in a while? is watmm up again? ;P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Those "Monthly Bandwidth Exceeded" messages a few months back suggest otherwise, Z... (but yes, recent roubles are the hosts fault...).... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that was once... every other time watmm has been down in the past was due to server errors |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Still down, goDel... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

*sigh* (although i would like to silently admit that it isnt half as bad here as i thought, or would like to think :)))) |

I think we should count ourselves lucky there are 2 high quality AFX/IDM sites on the net...] So resally...MAJOR Props due to Phob & Crew and Joyrex for all their hard work etc.... |
||||||||

I know, I know...but we're talking about XLT & WATMM here, so excuse my generalistion...;).. How about supplying some links to others worthy of note?.... (Planet Mu is pretty cool...)... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, and you can call me ivo if you want :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
:D ok, ivo nice to meet you in this part of the digital world |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i was thinking about planet-mu.com, also a worthy mention should go out to ninjatune.net (home from home for a lot of warpheads) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my brain hurts from the space on the side |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so you're from watmm right |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i always forget how cool this place is until watmm breaks down, and that isnt supposed to be a diss, cos this place is wicked. i just dont normally post i prefer the general topics and posts here. :-) |

Heh, always gotta throw in the "...but" don't ya Jand? I'm not about to get into some design pissing contest with Phob but I will say this: 1) 800x600 is the browser design minimum standard nowadays. While most users are using 1024 and up, the design standard always has to be the minimum, and with the new OSes supporting only 800 and up, that's why it's the standard. To design a site that requires more than the minimum forces your user to adjust, which is poor design. 2) 100% table widths (or a percentage thereof) is more professional in my opinion, as again you're not forcing the user into predefined spaces (and not maximizing your screen real estate, which at higher resolutions is the whole point). 3) We're back up! Yeah! http://forum.watmm.com |

Hey, Joy....sorry if any of my comments above sounded bitchy, not my intention at all, mate... like I said, I've got nothing but admiration for the work both you and Phob do for the wider AFX/IDM/AE etc community... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's cool, man, I'm pretty sure Joy was only messin' :) Yr right, both sites are really a godsend to us all |

Wide, Wide 100% tables are one of my pet hates, I must admit.... It's a useability thing really; a golden rule of Typography is that the optimial line length is around 39 to 45 letters (approx an alphabet and a half long...)... Doubly important online, as no-one enjoys reading large amounts of text on-screen.... (hehe...I am such a design nerd this morning...:)... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
"no one enjoys reading large amounts of text on screen" oh is that why we all visit messageboards? :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so why don't you use width=100% for your whole site then? (it's all about control in my point of view, you want to control the layout and make sure the site is looking the same for all users.) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i use the empty space to hold my winamp ----------> |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, who knows what the new layout brings us anyway? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
imo the board should stay this way, it's nice, simple and clear the reason i never posted at watmm is 'cause i don't like the mb one bit, it's divided in different parts and everyone has own pics in their messages and stuff, it annoys me i hope this mb won't change, or at least not much |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
100s of smilies? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like making my pages at a width of 125% with 'overflow: hidden'. fuck the users if they can't take a joke. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I agree with Morton, the watmm forum is way too busy, all those pics and smilies really annoy me. Plus, i'm at work so i don't want all that. Here, i really like the color scheme, functional lay-out and sizes. It just looks more professional. you should stop whining about number-nerdish stuff and just enjoy the board! |
