Website Idea

[DJT]

Doesn't matter to me. Whatever can be made quickest and look the best.

That would be Joomla, because he would have to create all the graphics and code it all and all that. Plus I already have Joomla up and most of it is edited. Just need a skin, then I can finish it up.

 

[DJT]

Can't we use a skin we already have? Or something similar?

 

[sheed]

Well, maybe instead of Marcum creating a site for $20, he could create a Joomla template if he knows how... If not we would have to get a custom made one somehow unless we can find someone to make us one from here or another board.

Well balla did a good job on the retro one. But I don't think he has been on in a while. Maybe PM/e-mail him?

 

[sheed]

Its not the graphic design of it, its actually implementing the graphics into the template code thats difficult.

What ever is going to look better. Looks is a key for websites.

 

[Marcum28]

Well its up to the members I guess, its just a lot easier using Joomla to add and edit news daily, and us being an all sports community I am sure there will be a lot of news to add.

The program I use, CutePHP is just as editable, and is a much smaller and convient system to add things.

Sheed, I can try templating it.... do you have AIM so we can talk?

 

[sheed]

Yeah pistonsfreak3632 I am on now.

 

[RipCity32]

sheed just showed me the joomla layout. I like the organization with it. Just need a nice skin for it and I think we could def. use it.

Yea I have used CutePHP its nice and I really like it. With Joomla, its a lot easier and theres a lot more things to add to the articles/news.

I have known Marcum for a while now and he just keeps getting better and will do his damnest to make sure that the site will go great so my votes for him to make it

 

[Marcum28]

Thanks Cej...

Looks like I'm going to take a crack at that templating... looks very simple.

 

[sheed]

Alright yea, me and Marcum have a little something going on here so we will see what happens and update you guys.

 

[RipCity32]

Good luck men, don't let us down

 

[sheed]

Alright I have been working on this for most of the day, so I thought I would give you guys a rough look so far. I am still adding/removing/editing bits and pieces so this isn't the final product.

I like this so far, Sheed... very good start

 

[sheed]

Thanks, I will be working on it for the next few days as much as I can, because I am loaded with homework and work, but I can time to work on it here and there. I am hoping for a launch by mid June. I can probably finish it within the next week actually. Updates will come.

 

[Cejis33]

I really like this so far... maybe add a sports scores widget, quote of the week, standings part, stats and latest SOTW winner and other newest graphics and then umm sim league team leaders and such... photo gallery would not hurt either
