    Errr...hello

    Some of you might remember my site called Latios-world. Well I've changed the name to Seafloor cavern because Latios-world sounds more like a shrine than anything else.

    This is the seafloor cavern layout:

    I can't show you my site because I just got a domain for it today, and it dosen't seem to work :confused:. I registered with godaddy (which I think is the most reliable domain provider) but oh well. It might be just slow today. :\

    Anyways what do you think of the layout?
     
    Wow O.O Very nice ^_^

    I think that there's something about the DNS propagating or something. That's probably why your domain doesn't work. I think it takes 24-48 hours. Anyway, VERY nice layout. I really like it. :)
     
    GoDaddy is really good. =x I use it for almost all of my domains~ It usually takes about a day for everything to be set up (including DNS, I think). ^^; GoDaddy is incredibly fast, though, so you shouldn't be kept waiting too long~

    Anyway, I really, really like that layout. ^_^ It may not be extremely colourful or anything, but it still looks great! The rounded edges look really nice. One thing you should do (if you weren't planning to already) is make the layout fill the screen in any screensize. The screenshot makes it look really small for me (my resolution is 1280 x 1024) and it would probably look a lot nicer if more space were filled on my screen. Like I said, though, if you already had that in mind, just ignore me. XD

    Nice job! ^_^
     
    Thankx for the comments. Also I try to install PHP 4 on my sever but it won't work. All of my PHP pages just come up as a "windows can not open this file" page. =\

    PS. I don't know how to make "stetch" layouts.


    +EDIT: I got php and mysql to work. :D Now me shall get vBulletin installed.

    (I got a domain and a VB for my birthday)

    Code: 
    <table width="95%">

<!-- table stuff here -->

</table>

    Simple, really. Put the per cent sign at the end of your width variable to make the table a specified percent of the window width, rather than a pixel value.


    The layout's nice. It's better to have a clean layout than a colourful one, in my opinion. Mine is all shades of blue and grey, and it works well.

    Well, I can't really Change it to a stretch Layout now...

    Anyways, thanks for the comments.

    Off subject: how do you get www.yourdomain.com/index.php?id=blablabla
    to work? (the "?id=" thing)
     
    Code: 
    <?php include ("$id.php"); ?>
     <?php if($id=="") { $id="home"; } ?>
     <?php if (!file_exists("$id.html")) { $id = "home"; }?>
    Add that code (assuming "home" is your default page, btw). That's your include file on index.php. Whenever you link to something, it would be:
    Code: 
    <a href="?id=page">link</a>
    o_O That should work, I believe~

    As for stretching... it would still work on your site. ^_^; You'd need to make sure the top TD (assuming you're coding with tables) has a background that's the same all the way across. So you'd likely use the blank part between the site title and the pokeball image. =x Play around with that, see if it works. If not, no big deal. ^_^; It still looks great.

    flame_chi, could you please add at least 4 words to your post? Maybe elaborate on your favourite part of the layout... otherwise it's spam. ^_^ Thanks.

    sorry.. its hard for me to tell about the layout.. i like every layout that people like to show to the forum..
    n i dont know how to make them thats why
     
    killer layout!!! i really like it!
     
    Its pretty nice man, keep it up :)
     
    GG, if you still need me to fix the layout with php, please email it to me so I can fix
     
    Check your mail again, Imakuni?. ;)
     
    when you see this check ur mails ;)
     
    x_x Check your PM. I've got a problem...
     
    Why not just use the normal one Erica?
    PHP: 
    <?php
if (!$id) {
$id = "news";
$include = $id . ".txt";
}
else {
$include = $id . ".txt";
}
if (is_file($include) == "1") {
        include $include;
}
else {
include "404.txt";
}

    Maybe I'll post the tut I made earlier today in the Tech Inst. If I feel like it.


    As for domains, it isn't the fault of godaddy, or wherever you bought the domain. It's called that your ISP needs to update. Which, as said, takes 24-48 hours.

    Technically, if all ISPs updated every second, your domain would work as soon as you put in the nameservers. But they don't, so you have to wait for a few hours/days.


    And the layout...! Awesome!

    Your layouts are always great GG, I remember some of the other ones that you showed at PWCDF. Pure genious. ^_^
