Seperot was the first person here with his own domain name: Seperot.com (http://www.seperot.com) , and then there\'s Pogopuschel.com (http://www.pogopuschel.com)  but that\'s not really finished yet(don\'t know if it ever will be :P)
My site would be ArcaneOrder.com (http://www.arcaneorder.com) , my char. story is on it as are those of any other members, you can also read some more stories about magics in our Arcane Library :)

Heh, I\'m actually working on karyuu.com,  but it won\'t be planeshift-related only ;) Granted, I\'ll probably dedicate a page to my character, and there will be art and stuff. So. That\'s yet to come for me.

Heh. I could just ruin the surprise and point to my existing domain filled with schtuff, but I\'d much rather destroy it and start anew. I have this obsession with changing the layout and design elements of my website nearly every month, and I\'m hoping one day I\'ll remain satisfied with my work for at least half a year. Madness :(

True, but doteasy.com gives you a domain -and- 20mb of hosting (no ads of any kind) for $25 a year XD I love them.

hmm ill look into that as soon as i make my sight. *(shudders at thought of having to learn frames html all over again* Everytime i make a sight i have to learn to make frames all over again. this is the 30th time i have forgoten so far.. its gettin a bit annoying. Plus i have to think and not just paste stuff in alot cus i work with geocities (im a visually orented webdesigner, i dont know how people can make webpages out of notepad but i dont know what other web designing programs are even like so..) Ive never worked with anything except geocities. and the wierd thing is i make professional looking ones IMHO. Made a damn good one when i was 12. I think its still up too. http://www.smileordie.cjb.net I dont know if its still up so dont flame me if its not. Well does anyone know of any good tutorials other than that one site.. ooh what was it... it was http://www.lissaexplains.com or something (made for 8 year olds or something. Bah i say, its hard for even me..) So if anyone knew of a tutorial site that also taught you how to frame in geocities that would be greatly appriciated.

Whemy, have you ever looked into Dreamweaver?
Title:
Post by: Kixie on January 27, 2004, 03:13:54 pm
no why? does it have pretty easy interface? and most importantly is it free?
Title:
Post by: Axsyrus on January 27, 2004, 03:50:09 pm
DreamWeaver is the best website design program IMHO, but it\'s not free, dunno what they charge you for it, must be well over 100$
anyways, frames suck and so does geocities. learn html and you can make websites with notepad, it\'s not really that hard..

PS. yes, your website is down..
Title: My favorite is FrontPage
Post by: La zCoCoz on January 27, 2004, 04:16:44 pm
my fav editor is frontpage but it is way more expensive than dreamweaver i would probably use dreamweaver but it is to confusing + i usually do it myself anyway (no editor i know that does PHP)

i know html pretty well its just i dont know how you envision where the pictures will be on the site by just looking at letters in notepad. too much trial and errror.

EDIT: ps geocities and frames dont suck if you kow how to use them right. anything you do in dream weaver you can do in the html editor in geocities. so you cant say its sucks by any means and if you use frames right you can make your page load faster overall by and look good if you dont use that clunky scrollbar in your frame.

The reason I\'m addicted to Dreamweaver is because you can switch between a visual layout and the code simply by clicking on a button. It\'s very efficient. I\'ve never tried Frontpage, but from what I\'ve read and heard about it, Dreamweaver meets all of my needs and then some. I taught myself everything I know now; never looked at any tutorials or whatnot, and I found the program -very- easy to use. And while it\'s pretty damn expensive, there are ways to get your hands on it... Not that I\'m promoting such things. Of course not, I wouldn\'t encourage that... Not at all.


...Ever. *shifty eyes*

yeah i guess i could get an illegal version but i mean geocities works pretty good fer me. oh yeah i made a quick site to build upon in teh future on my character website. its http://www.kixie.cjb.net

Post by: Karyuu on January 28, 2004, 04:58:11 am
What screen resolution do you have? I use 1024x768, and the site as you have it now doesn\'t fit. I believe that the majority of folks online use 1024x768 and lower, so maybe keep that in mind for the future?
Title:
Post by: druke on January 28, 2004, 05:09:57 am
1280 X 1024 here
Title:
Post by: Kixie on January 28, 2004, 05:10:31 am
yeah im in 1152x862 so what! its a better resolution by far so people are just gonna have to adjust to MY settings :P im kidding of course. i forgot i had those settings on so ill change the site a bit later.
Title:
Post by: Karyuu on January 28, 2004, 07:45:55 pm
Lol, I would adjust to a higher resolution, but 1024x768 is the highest I can go. But it doesn\'t matter. I love my flatscreen anyway :P

Oh, and if you ever consider getting a domain and already have a place to host it, scratch doteasy.com. Godaddy.com can let you register a .com domain for $7.95 :D It\'s lovely \'n everything.

heh. i can\'t imagine what a character website would look like at this point:

Day 1: i ran around, collected rubies. jumped up and down a few times. i still can\'t crouch.

Day 2: i ran around, collected rubies. jumped up and down a few times. i still can\'t crouch.

Day 3: i ran around, collected rubies. jumped up and down a few times. i still can\'t crouch.

Day 4: i ran around, collected rubies. jumped up and down a few times. i still can\'t crouch. also, i got stuck in a barrel. things are looking up.

;D

hmm.. you could always use the site to build up an extensive background and goals of your particular charater.... still it would be a bit small.... and recording what you did that day wouldn\'t be most rambunctious......

ah well sounds like fun maybe i should try :P
