OmnomIRC Dev Ideas

[Netham45]

Haven't done anything with it yet. Not sure if I'm going to keep that bot, mIRC with a SQL plugin is looking like it'd be a lot more reliable with considerable less work.


I have a beta-ish version of the new OmnomIRC up at http://www.omnimaga.org/index.php?action=ezportal;sa=page;p=14
The userlist and the messagebox are using the old method still in that, but I'm hoping to have it all converted to the new stuffs by the end of the week.

In case you missed it

[04:03:51] <+DJ_O> no
[04:04:00] <@Juju> lol
[04:04:02] <+DJ_O> i would prefer no fancy javascripts or the like
[04:04:05] <+DJ_O> on omnomirc
[04:04:20] <+DJ_O> for the sake of those who got 800 MHz computers
[04:04:36] <@Juju> mhm
[04:04:49] <+DJ_O> we also dont want to slow things down too much. We already have a graphical intensive site background as default theme
[04:05:02] <+DJ_O> i mean at http://www.omnimaga.org/index.php?action=ezportal;sa=page;p=14 (the online list)

[04:05:50] <+DJ_O> it doesnt even scroll in/out at max framerate on my i7 computer
[04:06:34] <@Juju> It works well on my laaptop
[04:06:57] <+DJ_O> i would maybe prefer something instant
[04:07:09] <+DJ_O> with no animation

(This is in reference to the new user online list with an animated scrolling in/out and translucent background)

I would prefer something instant, but even then I kinda prefer the online list being always visible

I'm going to add a 'Classic' mode that makes it look as it does now. The current look isn't even finalized, I'm still not sure I like it.

[ruler501]

I like how it looks now(well when its up).
would the classic still have all the same functions?

[Netham45]

I removed the animated userlist, I couldn't find a color scheme that looked good with it.

[DJ Omnimaga]

Ok. Personally I think how it was was OK. The only issue there was was with long lines of text, causing a scrollbar to appear and some text to not be visible unless you scroll down, and adding a scroll down focus would have messed with the rest of the site.

[Netham45]

I actually got it to scroll properly without messing with everything else.

Now there's no scrollbar and it's always at the bottom.

[DJ Omnimaga]

Oh nice, that's good then

THe only other option I think was to use Arial Narrow as fonts. They're much less wide.
