Hey jack, can't wait to see some of your web development prowess <_<Web development and design is really some fun stuff isn't it?Welcome to Xisto!

Hello Lyon2, In my opinion there are some cool things about your site, but it still need a lot of work. For instance, the fact that everything is on such a long scroll means you should probably divide that up into multiple smaller pages. Also, I think you have too many of those Google Ads, they make that page even harder to scroll through. I think, also, that your navigation would be better if it had bigger text and was on the left hand side.

Hey there Crepusculart! From France, huh? That's pretty cool. I assume the portfolio site you are talking about is art? If so, show it to us when it's ready! I'd like to see some of your art.Welcome to Xisto

What you need is a good dose of Black Sabbath. The lyrics in their songs are very deliberate, and with a purpose. In fact, they've written some songs that attack lazy lyricists. For a combination of good writing and good music, give them a listen. I think you'd like the song "N.I.B."

The effect you are looking for is called a "skew" by a lot of programs. All the effect does is change the height of each side of the image to make it appear as though the image is turned away from you. GIMP has this feature, and it is a free download. i believe the website is https://www.gimp.org/, but I'm not entirely sure. If you google it, I'm sure you'll find it.

hmm, you know what? That sounds like a really good idea. It's not an idea that will work with every project, but if I can do it with this one, I will. Thanks for the idea, sonesay.

More power to you, al3x. I think you have a good point. Putting in some sort of algorithm to convert non-hosted credits will prevent anyone from making a double accunt to get the easier credits of non-hosted members. I believe that is the reason it hasn't been done yet. I'm interested in seeing how this works out.

Well, I plan on helping our bk with his forum software, so I'll take him through the steps of this. I've already told him how this is not a simple run n' gun (or code, as the case my be) project. I think this will be a fun project for me, and a learning experience for bk.

Hmm, that's interesting. That would be kinda cool actually.

Well, if you are serious about this and you really have the funds to hire people, I'd consider working with you. Send me a PM if you'd like and we'll see what we can work out.

al3x, I believe the rate at which credits are gained prior to hosting is different, so that may be why sharing credits is not allowed before you get hosted.OpaQue, nice move! I'm sure there are plenty of non-hosted memebers who can help out the hosted with their site issues. There's no reason to limit them in that

Hey there, SandysDad. Welcome to Xisto. I'm sure you'll find that the hosting hear will more than meet any needs you'll have for your site, so you've come to the right place :PMake sure you make some quality posts and you'll have your site up in no time at all

I like Magic The Gathering and Yu-Gi-Oh, but I'm not sure if you meant to include TCGs :PFor regular playing card games, I like Black Jack, Hold-em and 5 card draw.

Yeah, that's true. I don't mind waiting if it's just waiting for something that I don't need for my site. There have been times, however, where there was some strange stuff going on with my site that I needed help with. Of course, since this isn't paid hosting there's no obligation for round-the-clock support, it would just be nice

Well, right now I can recommend a few good tools for game development. If you are using free tools, it'll take some effort to make a good game, but it's definitely possible.Graphics:-GIMP-Graphics GaleAudio:-Audacity-WAMP-Midi Maker(It'll take some effort to get something from this to sound good, though)

Using something like Front Page or Dreamweaver to code your site for you is not a good idea at all. Maybe using them to make a design mock-up could work, but there are multiple reasons why a generated page won't work out very well in the long run. As has been said, the code generated is not guaranteed to work on all browsers and often includes things that are not necessary. Also, you just don't have good control over what your site looks like if you're not coding it. In addition, a generated page can't really do very much in the way of interactivity. Sure, you can have pages linked to eachother, but the pages can't process any data or change or anything like that. Your best bet is to learn to code for yourself. If you need help learning, go to w3schools.com

Well, I think the school computer admins are always morons. I have yet to meet one who knew more about what he was doing than I did. And that would include when I was in elementary school. Now, when I was in elementary school, I didn't know a whole lot about computers at all. It was things that they couldn't figure out like, the mouse's wire was broken or you started it in safe mode.

To be honest, I have to agree with the OP on this one. While it's not always necessry to have a reply within 12 hours or so of a support request, it's certainly nice. And, indeed, it can be necessary at times. Now, this isn't a paid hosting service so Xisto has no obligation to have more people to help out members, it would be appriated nonetheless :PVelma, the reference you made to having too many cooks to a soup is understandable, however I don't think that Xisto is there. I've been there, but I don't think Xisto is yet XD

Hmm, this is pretty interesting stuff. I just glanced at the draft relatively quckly, but from what I can tell, if you are already using CSS, alot of this won't have a negative effect. The biggest effect of this will be to those that insist on not learning CSS and doing everything in HTML. XD

For a free host, Xisto is one of the best i've found. I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for here. Just remember, make full posts and follow the rules. You'll be sure to get the credits you need easily that way

If you are using RPG Maker XP, you already have a great tool to start moving into coding your own games :PWhat I recommend you do is learn the RGSS Scripting System built into RMXP. That's how I started my programming, and now I get paid to program

I'm really sorry, but I have to say this: HTML IS NOT A PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE!Thank you for listening XDThat being said, Hello Tazr! I hope to see some of your HTML skills. I'd recommend you learn some CSS too if you haven't already

Heh, this is pretty addicting. I got as low as about 5 seconds. I beat my teacher's challenge once of typing a sentence in 120 words per minute XD

Well, there's alot of things involved in web design and developmentt. You could, as karlos suggested, install pre-existing scripts and sytems to make a fuctining web page. However, to make your site really work the way you want, you cold learn t code it . to make a website that looks nice and doesn't change very often, you could use HTML and CSS. To make a webpage with some extra features, you could add JavaScript to the mix. To make the site truly under your control, you can add a server-side language like PHP with a database such as MySQL.Now, all of these are a lot to learn, and will take a while to learn them all. However, you don't have to go through much trouble to find out where to start learning. I would recommend that you go to http://www.w3schools.com/ That's where I went to (start) learning, and now after practice I have some people paying me to make sites for them.Not only does wschools have tutorials for languages, they als have tutorials on how to organize your site and the time you spend working on it. i'd recommend you take a look today

Ahh, there's so much you missed!You can't forget special effects that follow your mouse! Giant letters are always a plus. Ooh, go with the Webdings font while you're at it! Also, if someone ever tells you they cannot see your site properly IGNORE THEM! They are clearly lying since you can see the site just fine. Make sure you never attempt backwards compatibility for older browsers. A very intricate system of links so long that you forget what you're looking for is always a very important feature.I think more people need to read this thread
