I got it to work. I guess I had hot linking enabled. After disabling hot linking, everything is working just fine. Thanks for the help. This thread is solved.

Thank you for the response. I checked and all my image files are CHMOD'd to 0755. Even the folders as well. When I downloaded the software content, all images work and are accounted for on my hard drive. I uploaded them to the domain, and they are the right sizes. But still nothing.As far as the .htaccess, I don't have a .htaccess file on that subdomain. Do you think that my main domain .htaccess is preventing it?

Hey guys. I'm not new to forums, or internet scripting, but I'm not an expert either. With my experience though, I can't seem to figure out what is going on right now. I just started a Web Forum and I'm using VBulletin 4.0.3. Everything uploaded and installed just fine. However here is where the problem lies. I have NO button images. Everything has no images. Smiles, topic buttons, status buttons, nothing. No buttons or images are working except for ones that people have uploaded for their avatars/profile signatures. I've worked with the VBulletin Staff Support to try and figure this out, however with them looking through everything and troubleshooting, they said the problem lies with my domain host. So, that being said, I contacted my host, and they told me to come here. So, here is a little more info to help you guys help me, if you can.I have double checked all uploaded files/folders to make sure everything did in fact upload. Done, everything there.Uninstall and Re-install VBulletin. Done, no changes.Checked permissions through VBulletin. Check, All permissions are what they need to be.Checked folder/image permissions on my domain. Done, All are set to 0755, which is what they need to be.That being said, I still get nothing. And if I type in the direct url for a image on my domain, I get a 403 forbidden, and it doesn't show, even though it's set to 0755. Can anyone help?URL to my site: baltnation.klrbaltdomain.comURL to a test image that shows my problems I'm having: baltnation.klrbaltdomain.com/Problems.png (as you can see I have no icons/buttons nothing.URL to an image in my image file: baltnation.klrbaltdomain.com/images/statusicon/forum_old-48.pngAny ideas?? I've been working on this for 3 straight days to no avail. Any help is appreciated.

Hey guys, there are some codes that I'm trying to figure out how to write, but have NO idea where to start. First off, let me say I have a Text-based RPG going already at mafia-test.klrbaltdomain.com. I am trying to add a black market/ drug market and factories/warehouses to the game, but have NO clue how or where to start on the whole market deal. I want to make it so that you can sell not only to each other, but to the server for a given price that is randomly changed every 3 or 4 hours. How would I go about doing that? For the most part, I have been able to figure a LOT out on my own, but am in need of help with the smaller things. Any ideas for me?

Anybody else able to help me here? I'm seriously begging for help now. I'll even change it to whatever scripting you're comfortable with. I just need help doing this. when it comes to computers I'm good at programming, but when it comes to internet scripting, I'm still somewhat of a n00b Anyone that will help?

I appreciate it The_Fury. I'll be waiting to hear from him hopefully.MC, You have a pm!

ok, so I understand a little better. Well if he's interested, let him know to talk to me directly and we'll work something out.

I'd appreciate it. I have a question about Ruby though, is it better or worse than PHP?

Anyone willing to help for some $$?

15 views and nobody is willing to help me? Please guys, I really need help with this.

Ok guys, so after 2 almost 3 years of planning, and script learning, I have found I don't have much time (being as I'm in the Army and am currently deployed to Iraq), to actually sit down and make all my ideas come together for the game. Like I've said, I've got all the ideas down (that was the biggest step) and I have a LOT of information about the game, I just need help from someone to help write it/create it. I'm familiar with HTML and a little bit of CSS and PHP, but not that good with them (with the exception of HTML, which doesn't help me here). So, please if anyone is interested please let me know. I would rather not discuss the ideas of the game over here due to it being my personal design and will somewhat be prodigy for most of the RPG's I've played in. So if anyone is willing to help, feel free to e-mail me @ leveewithachevy@yahoo.com (sn is the same as e-mail addy), or just PM me on here and I will give you the majority of the ideas. Please guys I'm really looking for help from anyone. Preferably someone who is knowledgeable in PHP, MySQL, and a little bit in Java. Let me know guys. Thanks.

Ok that makes sense. Like I said I'm going to be learning as much as I can about PHP so if I have any questions on any of it I'll be sure to ask you guys! I appreciate your help in all of this! Thanks again everyone.

This is true, but do you think that I need to do the whole game in PHP even though it's just a text based game? That doesn't really seem logical to me. I thought php was more for the flashy type stuff like Java.

I see you recommend staying away from the frames, and I wouldn't mind trying the idea, what I'm trying to accomplish is to make the site have much easier access for the users. That's why I figured I'd throw in a frame for the nav bar, but I don't know now. lol

Checked and replied! Thanks for the info.

ok, well before your post here is what I got and I like the menu created here, and would like to keep it, just can't get it into a frame. My frame isn't working at all. Here is what I have without the frame, then with the frame, and do you see something I'm not seeing? With Frame: <html><body bgcolor="#383838"><head> <title>Registration</title></head><frameset cols="140"><frame name="first" noresize="noresize" src="Welcome Nav Bar.html"><frame name="second" noresize="noresize" src="Registration index.html"></frameset><div id="navcontainer"><ul id="navlist"><li id="active"><a href="Registration index.htm" id="current">Registration</a></li><li><a href="Welcome index..htm">Welcome</a></li><li><a href="about.htm">About</a></li><li><a href="#">Login</a></li><li><a href="#">Forum</a></li></ul></div><style type="text/css"> #navcontainer ul { margin-left: 30px; padding: 0; list-style-type: none; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; } #navcontainer li { margin: 0 0 3px 0; } #navcontainer a { display: block; padding: 2px 2px 2px 24px; border: 1px solid #333; width: 160px; background-color: #000000; background-image: url(images/l1_down.gif); } #navcontainer a:link, #navlist a:visited { color: #990000; text-decoration: none; } #navcontainer a:hover { border: 1px solid #333; background-color: #000066; background-image: url(images/l1_over.gif); color: #33FF33; } #active a:link, #active a:visited, #active a:hover { border: 1px solid #333; background-color: #CC0000; background-image: url(images/l1_over.gif); color: #000000; }</style><body><p><font color="#FFFFFF"><font align="center"><h1>Terms and Conditions</h1><br><br></p><p> Terms and conditions statement goes here.</p></body></html> And now without the frame: <html><head><div id="navcontainer"><ul id="navlist"><li id="active"><a href="welcome index.htm" id="current">Welcome</a></li><li><a href="#">About</a></li><li><a href="Registration index..htm">Registration</a></li><li><a href="#">Login</a></li><li><a href="#">Forum</a></li></ul></div><style type="text/css"> #navcontainer ul { margin-left: 0px; padding: 0; list-style-type: none; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; } #navcontainer li { margin: 0 0 3px 0; } #navcontainer a { display: block; padding: 2px 2px 2px 24px; border: 1px solid #333; width: 120px; background-color: #999; background-image: url(images/l1_down.gif); } #navcontainer a:link, #navlist a:visited { color: #EEE; text-decoration: none; } #navcontainer a:hover { border: 1px solid #333; background-color: #F60; background-image: url(images/l1_over.gif); color: #333; } #active a:link, #active a:visited, #active a:hover { border: 1px solid #333; background-color: #FF6600; background-image: url(images/l1_over.gif); color: #333; }</style></head></html>

ok the site is already starting to come along, I've got pretty much the non-registered/welcome pages almost done on it, I'm just having a slight issue. I'm trying to keep my vertical nav bar there, but can't seem to figure out how to put it into it's own frame. The nav bar is in CSS, so I'm not too familiar with how to put it into a frame. Do you guys have any suggestions?

Hey guys, I just finished up part of my website and am trying to figure one last thing out. I have a vertical navigation bar done with CSS, but I can't seem to figure out how to put it in it's own frame. I've tried throwing an html frameset in there, but I haven't had any luck. Here is what I had for this: <frameset cols="120,*"><frame src="navbarexample.htm"><frame src="pageexample.htm" name="showframe"></frameset>but couldn't get it to work with that so I did this:<div id="navcontainer"><ul id="navlist"><li id="active"><a href="welcome index.htm" id="current">Welcome</a></li><li><a href="#">About</a></li><li><a href="Registration index..htm">Registration</a></li><li><a href="#">Login</a></li><li><a href="#">Forum</a></li></ul></div><style type="text/css"> #navcontainer ul { margin-left: 30px; padding: 0; list-style-type: none; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; } #navcontainer li { margin: 0 0 3px 0; } #navcontainer a { display: block; padding: 2px 2px 2px 24px; border: 1px solid #333; width: 160px; background-color: #999; background-image: url(images/l1_down.gif); } #navcontainer a:link, #navlist a:visited { color: #EEE; text-decoration: none; } #navcontainer a:hover { border: 1px solid #333; background-color: #F60; background-image: url(images/l1_over.gif); color: #333; } #active a:link, #active a:visited, #active a:hover { border: 1px solid #333; background-color: #FF6600; background-image: url(images/l1_over.gif); color: #333; }</style> But I can't seem to figure out where I need to add the border or how to add the frame to it with CSS. Any clue? Thanks guys.

I really appreciate the reply there. I am going through the sites you posted already, just one at a time, and it's not too hard really. I will continue reading then and if I come across any more issuses I will be sure to ask for the help. Thanks guys. I'm hoping I can have this finished soon.

I do have exp. with PHP, but not with MySQL. My Exp is limited with the PHP tho, I spent more time learning HTML and XHTML scripting. As for the differences, my game is more user interacting with other users, and ranking is different (basically ranks are not automatically given), and there are other features that set it apart. Like I said, it will have the same basic principle as torncity, but more like global-syndicate. It follows a LOT of the same outlines, just a few add-ons and differences with mine, that's all, something to keep people a little more entertained.

Hey guys, I'm new when it comes to data basing anything so maybe my post should actually go here. Here is my previous thread on my situation, and do you think that this will all be covered in my basic database? http://forums.xisto.com/topic/96431-topic/?findpost=1064396670

Oh, and I can do HTML and XHTML scripting, and I'm pretty good at it. I've been learning PHP like I stated earlier, and see it's a LOT like HTML, only with addons, so I'm sure it won't be TOO hard to learn. But here is my question that I'm really hoping to have answered.Like most RPG's you will have stats based on EXP, and stuff like that, but how would you go about implementing those stats into certain variables that give random results? For example, lets say you have 25 power, 30 defense, and a weapon that gives you +10 attack and +15 defense, and you do a job that requires X stamina to do, and the payout is between X and X amount of dollars, but the collateral damage is X depending on your stats? You know what I mean? Basically that's where I'm having the most problems right now. Everything else on the site I can pretty much do. As far as like hourly income, and stats for items/properties and stuff like that, I just don't know how to incorporate the stats into the rest of the sites data base. Think anyone can help me any?

Hey guys, I've looked at a LOT of different places and can't really find the help I need. I'm looking for some input or someone who is actually willing to help me in the Creation of my online multiplayer text based RPG. My game will be something like torncity, or global-syndicate (for those who know those), only with slight differences and changes that I have thought of. The game itself really isn't going to be that hard to design really, it's the factors and timing and stuff like that I'm not too good at. I know I'm going to need a database (MySQL), and know some good scripting which is fine with me, I'm descent with C++ scripting, but rusty at it. It's been almost 8 years since I've done it! . But now for my situation. I'm looking for something or someone to help me with my databasing. I'm sure you all have played, if not at least seen a text-based RPG, so if any of you may be able to help me out any please let me know.Also I'm trying to learn PHP right now too, so that helps
