Star Trek's project page
« on: May 11, 2011, 07:43:23 pm »
ACagliano made a project page for that little Star Trek game he's working on. He asked me to touch it up and give the page "a 'spacey' look," but just for the fun of it (because I have that much time on my hands) I did an entire redesign.

(Click the images to view the actual page.)

Old:


New:


Probably the best web design I've done so far :D

Thoughts? Any suggestions/tips? Rants?

This looks nice so far, but it would be nice to maybe remove the white stuff around the logo and give it some sort of 3D ish look so it stands out more from the background.

That was the closest I could get to making it 3D without having to use an image.... Maybe I should just use an image.

*bump*

http://clrhome.co.cc/projects/startrek/source/

Made my own line numbering engine in JS. Epic fail in IE (because it doesn't support word-wrap: break-word), but oh well. I might test IE and make an exception for it :P

Maybe I should just make it a normal numbered list and make things easier for myself.... Hmm.

Nice Deep Thought. I wonder if it would be better if the code was on dark background, though?

Made it darker, and added a little screenshot showcase thing on the demos page. They're obviously still placeholders, but the actual functionality took me hours to fix up, even in jQuery x.x

Oh, that looks preety nice, especially the JavaScript effects. How did you made this editor for the source code?

Lol, I really overdid that. It would have been easy to just separate each line and wrap them in <li> inside an <ol> (numbered list), but no. I had to do it the hard way. So I separated each line, put it in a <td>, created a whole new <td> to house the numbers, and for each line I had JS count the number of lines it would take up if it wrapped.

Would have been so much easier to do it the way everybody else does (and would have made it compatible with IE, too). Oh well.
