AmigaToday.com is online!

[Invisix]

Welp, better late than never, I was shooting for a Christmas opening, but alas that never happend... 2 days too late... d'oh! However, I bring good news! AmigaToday.com is now officially open to the public!

So far this is a one man operation, all done by me. Happy Holidays, and Happy New Year! :-D

Comments, and suggestions needed! :idea:

P.S. If anyone would like to contribute a logo for the website, please do so by posting the images in this thread. My current logo i'm not too fond us, and i'm graphically illiterate.

Thank you all in advance!  :-)

Amiga Today - Your online Amiga news resource!  <-- Catchy slogan eh?  :lol:

Others have told me it looks fine in Ibrowse and Aweb.

Thanks. Post it when it's finished. Yes, animated logo would be great.

It really does look quite horrible with CSSless browsers.

Why can't you test it yourself with the Amiga browsers? (Seeing your signature)

I can't at this time, as what I have in my signature has yet to happen... my stuff shipped from Elbox, and AmigaKit.com over a week ago, and it's still not here yet!  :pissed:

well I ran IB through WinUAE, it's not as pretty as with a CSS capable browser, however it's readable.

I use a news / weblog, webware for the website, and it's all CSS based, just like most other webwares of the same genre. Not my fault IB isn't CSS compatible.

I'll see what I can do, however i'm not sure what.

As I said earlier, I may write a jaavscript, that will autodetect an Amiga browser, and route it to a different location, specifically for Amiga non-CSS browsers... aka a pure HTML website.

That means double the work... dual-postings. Hmmm... maybe i'll figure something out. :-)

[Invisix]

Fixed with a pure HTML template, NO CSS!  :-o

It doesn't look anywhere as good as the CSS template did, however, this was a hour and half - two hour rush job, and i'll be fixing it tomorrow. :-)

Comments & Opinions please!

Well, the transition from pure CSS to HTML went "okay". The pure HTML site looks nowhere's near as pretty as the CSS site did, however compatability had to be sustained.

I have redone another template, this time for simplistic somewhat than the last HTML template was, and I like this one more than that one.

This HTML template looks nearly identical in Ibrowse as it does on PC & Mac web browsers. It's been said it looks okay in Aweb as well.

Well i just checked it out on Aweb! And it looks roughly the same as IE. But thats still not saying much.

Considering I had to make it compatible with Amiga webbrowsers it is nothing spectacylar visually, all the CSS has been stripped.

This was in IE set to debug.

I have Visual Studio installed.
It hates this:
onLoad="MM_preloadImages('images/btn_main_dn.gif','images/btn_overview_dn.gif','images/btn_products_dn.gif','images/btn_services_dn.gif','images/btn_contactus_dn.gif','images/btn_location_dn.gif','images/btn_ourteam_dn.gif')"

Ok. Going back to my happy place now.  
We have no weiners and no buns!!! No hotdogs for you!!!

Thanks for letting me know, I completely forgot about that line being there! It was used when I was testing the website, and those images, etc no longer exist, so that line was a waste of time.  :oops:  :-D
