Forinec Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 I haven't been on the forums lately, due to working on the new website, or taking breaks away from the computer. Anyway, the website will feature yet another game's screenshots in it. JKII, and JKI are the obvious games included, but there's going to be quite a few that are unrelated to Star Wars, which is why the backgrounds are simple and don't have themes. It'd be really messy to have lightsabers on one side and space fighters on the other.... oops! Said too much. He he. Colors basically match the logo, dark backgrounds with bright words, things like that. I'm having a few problems with JKII screenies. 1- Is there a specific name for the folder you need for the pics to go? 2- Do you have to bind a key for "screenshot."?

Forinec Posted September 8, 2002 Author Share Posted September 8, 2002 Another question: Which is best: jpeg's posted directly onto the page, or simply links to screenshots? The jpegs on the page would blow up modem users' computers, and links could have virus problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forinec Posted September 8, 2002 Author Share Posted September 8, 2002 Also, what features do you recieve when you're hosted by JKII.net? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forinec Posted September 8, 2002 Author Share Posted September 8, 2002 BTW, I'm posting things about a website because I want to hear opinions, tips, suggestions and things from the people who'll probably use the site. In other words, I don't want to spend all my time on something nobody will enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kstar__2 Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 1, yes, they are in the "screenshot" map in the base folder 2, u have to type in the console: "\bind x screenshot" 3. i think posting miniatures on the page, and if you click them, you can view the large picture, that is the best linking way 4, i dont know i think it will be nice, if you make a good site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh... "map"? A folder for screenies? Sorry... never bothered with jkii pics before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerfYoda Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 Originally posted by Forinec Also, what features do you recieve when you're hosted by JKII.net? My jkii.net hosted site supports php w/ gd libs. They can get you a MySQL account, email addresses @yourhost.jediknightii.net, web usage statistics, and a very simple news updating script. It's pretty rad. My only gripe is the hosted server seems rather busy, so your site may go down every now and then. Make backups frequently. Don't expect to get too much help from the admins if things look weird. I cant bitch too loudly though, it's still free hosting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forinec Posted September 10, 2002 Author Share Posted September 10, 2002 The news script'll definitely come in handy. But where can i find a script that takes people's screenies they've posted, makes a thumbnail link to the actual pic, and displays a comment about it all at once?

Kstar__2 Posted September 10, 2002 Share Posted September 10, 2002 map= a folder for the screenies yes, if you have jedimod or promod or something, you have to look in the mod folder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
