Larian Studios Forums General Chat Chat (Anything) Poll: My quest list

I voted for left too. It was easyer for me to scroll down and see the quest on the left. Very nice work Kiya!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

Janggut, something like this? I have 2 main pages - if you're in the thumb overview, you can return to the appropriate mainpage - if you look at the large pics, you can return to thumb with quest overview or to main page.

I plan to anchor to certain quests - but first I want to finish the list. this page will take weeks until it's ready - I'm just in the text phase now.
Kiya

If you mean something different, then please, explain - I'm a newbie in html (so, make it easy for me to understand, please).

kiya: your site will be great, when finished!

I followed the links now and it really looks close to perfect. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

What disapoints me is that when it is finished there will be no persons needing help in the forum anymore...
<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />

Don't think so, Bernhard - could be RR will turn out into success and bring new gamers to try out the older one: Div.

If not? I've learned a bit html, that's good enough for me. I don't have to visit my stupid ftp anymore to grab links already.
Kiya

I think you know that this was a joke! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" />

and your page doesn´t look like you just learned HTML, it looks like you are an expert. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

everything looks beautiful, kiya!!very easy to navigate and understand. what a lot of work you put into it!

Ooooo! Toffee! <bounce> <bounce> <bounce> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" />

No toffee for the ones who voted for the left side ?
The site looks very beautiful, i like the colours and the pictures.
I hope that you will make a Riftrunner site very soon !

Kiya, who made the background on the last link you gave? Its really need.
I like thge concept of the last link you gave. Very clear, you know what to do. Keep up the good work <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

i voted for an third option.
i like the way of the first chooise.
but what i don't like so mutch is the position of the left (puple) titels , they are split in a second row if the words are to long. probably because the frame is somewhat small.

my sugetsion is put the purble titels in one line and put the explaning just beneath it beginning at the same position as the purple ones.

euh... let's go visable <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

like this:

[color:"pink"]Collect herbs for George [/color]
get the Drudanae plant for George the trader out of Lanilor's garden but ask him first for permission,
so the illtempered Dwarven healer Otho is not angry. Don't kill his pigs, he'll kill you

[color:"pink"]Find a cure for Simon/Verlat [/color]
Ask Goemoe and Otho about their patients, duplicate the healing gem by looking at pic 2-4

[color:"pink"]Unlock the entrance to the catacombs[/color]
go into the Aleroth dungeons by turning all 4 statues so they face north

WOW what a nice gothic background!!! I liked it very much! I also liked the background in misc. I like it very much Kiya! I also liked very much the fornts. Yeap I think they fit very much. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

bean-
i like that, but i think it would be easier to scan the list quickly if the quest instructions were slightly indented underneath the title. it'd make it slightly more obvious what is the title and what is text for quick refrencing.

Which link? The one to my homepage? My mainpages?
The first one is a Div screenshot, I modified it myself with CompuPic: Frame, the font Marian used for his rune manuscripts for the text and the rainbow effect. Font was transparent and I merely puzzled over the outlines.
Barnie made the hyperlinks. I can't figure out how Frontpage works.

The 2nd main page?
Marian's drawing of a gargoyle - again CompuPic, took the negative, stretched, frame, the font, circular rainbow effect until I was satisfied with the colours - and Barnie made hyperlinks.

All stuff is found in the Div Fansite kit, I just changed it a bit. The thumbs are CompuPic again with the backgrounds the Fankit has.

And if you mean the whole text stuff I asked in a poll for? This design is from Barnie alone, I just wrote the text (wanted to try out how lists work). He thought up the lilac (my favourite colour) and had the idea for the tiny scrolls!

And he showed a lot of patience when I wanted a different gif for tips. I wanted Otho's pigs - didn't look good - he suggested gold - didn't look. Then I worked on a charm and he on the dragonheart. The heart was fine, but the red didn't match lilac. So, poor Barnie worked on emerald green and at last on aquamarine blue (my suggestion).

He checked all my html, answered my questions and is a wonderful teacher and buddy for html-stupidos like me <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

Without him, I would have given up my idea. You see, I was only sick of having to go to my server and fetch pics - everything else slowly developed during the month we're working at this site.

And HEF had the idea of putting explanations in the thumbs - Lews checked faithfully if the links worked and Pmed all my errors to me. the only editor I use is the one in CompuPic, I'm really learning to "read" and write this html language, no WYSIWYG editor.

It's still not ready, have not started the teleporter spoiler and not all quests are on the thumbs - not all quest spoilers have all the description I plan - and not all screenies are up <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif" alt="" /> - I have to reorganise the Dark Forest completely, I'm not satisfied.
Kiya

@Bean: I will find a font, where the lilac is in one row - so far I've only used Arial. h3 = a bit too large, agreed. But h4 is too small for those using small fonts like I do (internet option).

Which table width would you suggest?

[color:"yellow"]Toffees for all <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" /> - thank you for your help. [/color]

Kiya

i was talking about this one Kiya http://www.kiya1.via.t-online.de/images/.

Guess thats the one from your homepage. Its with the lich.

Shiney! Very nice site Kiya!

The Lich is one of the 2 wallpapers from the Fansite Kit, I just changed it as explained above <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> - and Barnie made the coordinates for the contact sensitive spots.

here's the original wallpaper

http://kiya1.via.t-online.de/crystal_gargoyle.jpg

the original gargoyle (my 2nd main page) - looks similar to the new gargoyle in RR, hm?

It was just a question. Its very nice Kiya. I like the whole site. Keep up the good work and if you need a hand let me know, if i can help i will.

Cheers Jolie.

hello kiya, sorry this is late but my system crashed on friday so i can only post this on monday.
***
what i meant was something like what u put on the bottom of your page, the one that says TOP. #top is an anchor.

yes, some kind of index for each quest will be very nice.

e.g.,

In Aleroth
Herbs for George Cure for Simon/Verlat Entrance to the catacombs
....on & on ...

Outside Aleroth
Escort for healers Solution to the plague in Rivertown Activation scrolls
....on & on ...

your site is beautiful as it is, kiya. keep up the good work.

for being a brave & risking his reputation, handefood deserves the toffee.
**whispers** though he doesn't know the rest who agreed to the left got big bar of belgian choc.
