Title: How do you like the new affiliate bar?
Description: I need your input.


MetroidMaster1914 - July 4, 2006 10:28 AM (GMT)
As you may have noticed, I've changed our affiliate bar to fix in a nice little box which makes the site what I think better looking. However, you may differ in opinion, so please take the poll and post comments about it if you wish, so I can decide to keep it this way or revert back to the old way. You input is greatly appreciated...

Oh and BTW, I'm going to be on vacation for about a week, so I probably won't be too active as we're going camping...

P.S.- You still can't see the affiliates if you use FireFox, so if you want to see them go to the portal page and they're listed there.

I <3 it. It looks so much better, much more organised/fancy.

dreadmaster - July 4, 2006 07:16 PM (GMT)
How do you make them do that? i mean make them scroll side to side?

Anubis - July 4, 2006 07:57 PM (GMT)
Its an HTML tag called marquee,

^some examples.

I guess its neat, but could you speed up the side to side movement.......

Anubis - July 6, 2006 11:25 PM (GMT)
I guess he couldnt, those who have the links at the end and beggining will be have less show time.

Shrander - July 7, 2006 02:16 AM (GMT)
Unless he adds blank ones at the ends....

thats prety cool

MetroidMaster1914 - July 10, 2006 04:40 PM (GMT)
Well then, I guess I'll keep it then....
And I f I speed it it up, then the affiliates on the end have even less time to show, but the more we get the faster I'll make it.

Omega - July 10, 2006 05:11 PM (GMT)
I really like this one.

As I said before, blank ones can be added on the ends.........amd I am saying to have it sped up, because spmetimes when looking at it, it starts with the first at the far right, so none are showing, and they are all moving left, and it takes forever for them to all get some time to show......while sometimes they are all showing, and move from side to side at the start..........

MetroidMaster1914 - July 11, 2006 06:42 AM (GMT)
It's supposed to always do the latter. I think I fixed the problem you're talking about, but maybe not...

Shrander - July 11, 2006 06:54 AM (GMT)
It seems ok now, but I am not using my own computer right now so effects may vary....but maybe it was my computer screwing it up even though nothing might have been wrong....

Omega - July 11, 2006 12:14 PM (GMT)
How do you make a button?

Baby Drone - July 11, 2006 02:34 PM (GMT)
Yay for MM1914! /o/

The affiliates are now viewable in Firefox! Woohoo!

Gendreavus - July 13, 2006 12:38 AM (GMT)
I must have some weird Firefox then, because I still can't see them consistantly. Oh well. I've had the IE tab for a long time, so I'm good.

*vanishes*

That is what is happening to me a bunch......so I have to wait a while before the others show up......
Then there are times where the affiliates are all showing at the start, except for the end ones on the right side, but it gets to them fast........

MetroidMaster1914 - July 14, 2006 01:51 AM (GMT)
YEs...if that happens to me I just refresh it, that way you don't have to wait; as to why that happens I have no idea...

Anubis - July 14, 2006 01:52 AM (GMT)
Doesnt that happen to everyone? I think thats how the html tag works.

anti-prime - July 23, 2006 07:25 PM (GMT)

Anubis - July 23, 2006 08:58 PM (GMT)
Bouncy Marquee
CODE

<marquee behavior=alternate>TEXT HERE</marquee>

Thats it, you are just going to have to add speed and images.

anti-prime - July 23, 2006 09:05 PM (GMT)
how do i make it stop wen i put mose on it?

Anubis - July 23, 2006 09:09 PM (GMT)
I just did most of the work for you
CODE

<marquee behavior="alternate" scrollamount="3" onMouseover="this.scrollAmount=0" onMouseout="this.scrollAmount=2">STUFF GOES HERE</marquee>

Where it says STUFF GOES HERE is where you put the images.
