House Sole

...the whole website.



Sorry guys, but you should know the drill by now. If not, let me run you through it:

1) Blizzard announces new expansion
2) Dryness starts hating the way the website looks
3) Dryness bitches and moans about it, but does nothing
4) Blizzard announces release date for said expansion
5) Dryness gets off his ass and does something about it
6) Since I can't push the expansion's release date back, I do the next best thing...
7) I do this.

YES I know you already hate this scheme. NO I won't do anything about it... yet.
You know... it IS the holiday season... and GREEN is both a holiday colour AND the guild colours... maybe [npc]Greatfather Winter[/npc] will bring some Green and Black presents...

If you DO run into any problems (links don't work, buttons are stupid, etc), let me know and I'll take care of it. While I tried it out with a bunch of different browsers under different conditions, it's impossible to catch everything when only a handful of people could test it out.

ANYWAYS, I haven't been around much over the last year and a half, and I know that we're getting a LOT of old schoolers coming back to play. So, on behalf of myself, Orion, and the rest of the officers...

WELCOME BACK SOLES!

As usual, we have some exciting plans for the future of the guild, with a little something for everyone.

The next month is going to be focusing on mostly getting everyone to 85 and geared. We hope to have our first 10-man(s) running by the end of the month (normal mode, of course), and with that (hopefully) some server (and maybe world?) firsts!

As an added bonus for everyone who read this far, because it is a new expansion, I will be accepting requests for FORUM NAME CHANGES. Just PM me, and I'll update your name. Please note, this will affect your LOGIN NAME to the forums as well, so have your password handy!

It's an exciting time to be in House Sole, and the next year is going to be a helluva ride. So buckle-up, and put your helmets on (except for Fiddle and Nate... since their handlers wouldn't let them take theirs off in the first place) and off we go!

Kinda digging the site. Pretty simple. Some of the buttons don't seem to be working right. Got an error message when I was clicking on the forums, but the Latest Posts worked fine.

The colors are not too bad. They work! Still think we need green and blacks but its a lot better then the baby blues like the last one! Also what happened to the boobs in the banner? EVERYONE like boobs! Even gay guys like Ando like boobs....


Kudos to you Dry my good sir!

Which buttons don't seem to be working right?

Ooh. new look! i kinda like it. i also like boobs, but dont think there should be boobs in our logo.

its set up for 800x600? the post reply, and quick post buttons look weird also. i dunno what isnt working.

It hurts my eyes! >.<

@Nim:
The actual width of the site is 920 pixels... so it should look fine on any monitor at 1024x768 or higher...
It was a discussion I had with Ori*n, actually... whether to make the site an absolute width (as it is now) or dynamic (85% or whatever)... in the end, to keep as much similarity as possible between the main page and the forums, the absolute value won. As it's an absolute value, anything smaller than 920 pixels with cause horizontal scrolling.

The PostReply and QuickReply buttons are designed to look like they do (black background, grey text [red for QUICK]). Not sure what you mean by looking weird... if you could elaborate, I'll see what I can do.
If you can take a Screenshot for me, it might help explain things better.

@Brad:
What hurts your eyes? The immense amount of sexy that this board now exudes? I know, it took me a while to realize it as well

I changed the default font... it's a little bit larger than before, but it should improve readability. Let me know if this was/was not the case, Brad.

Cheers to you Dryness, awesome work. Cataclysm is here! We had a good run in WotLK, which ended in some issues. But what doesn't kill us only makes us stronger. Brothers fight, brothers don't always get along, brothers have their opinions. But if loyalty stands true, brothers will always have each others backs through thick and thin. We are a battle-tested family - Deathwing, BRING IT ON!!

The latest post was not working when I posted it, but it seems to be working now. Might of been an error on my side or something...

Can I puke now or puke later

What have you done to my beloved forums!!!
