      Whadya guys think.... would it be cool if there were a page that links you to all the big & small shipyards out there?
      it might be easier for people to find ship graphics that way....

      Would it be good to have it?
      If most of you want a shipyard webring, im willing to do it.... there would be some rules, such as you must have at least one ship or planet graphic to apply, and the page would have a stats report about each shipyard, saying how much graphicl resources it has

      This way we could keep count on the available shipyards!

      a Good idea or a bad idea?

      I believe there was one a while ago. Its dead now, but I enjoyed it because I was able to look for ship designs.

      I figure the best way is to have some big thing on evula.org or whatever.

      Eric?

      I'm never a big fan of webrings. Better to just use a great resource like EVula.

      Wow, I've actually already got something in the works that would be, basically, a consolidated source for any and all shipyards for the community's benefit. It wouldn't exactly be a webring, but it would make finding shipyards easier.

      Hehe, I guess I should shift priority on it now, since there's obviously soomeone else out there that would like to see this done. 🙂

      I think a previous post of mine has the answer for you:
      (url="http://"http://www.ambrosiasw.com/webboard/Forum9/HTML/004425.html")http://www.ambrosias...TML/004425.html(/url)

      Now, if only all of you with webpages would use them, it took me a long time to compile all of them.

      I was thinking something more elaborate than justa bunch of links. Of course, i greatly appreciate the time you took to do that, and itll probably be a great base if a shipyard webring were to be created.

      @EVula: Any dates or more info on what itll be? will it be for EVula-only sites?

      No dates; it's been under construction for a VERY long time, since I shifted priority from it earlier this year.

      And no, it won't be for EVula-only sites, but being hosted by me sure wouldn't hurt. 😉

      Don't mention the plan Eric! 🙂

      I'd be glad to join the ring if it ever goes up, once I can be bothered making a page and putting all my images on it.

      Tsk, tsk, tsk...using a WYSIWYG editor...no, not really, although if you want REALLY good pages, you'll go longhand or never achieve it.

      Why? Here's why:

      WYSIWYG editors may screw something up. A few even publish the name on your page. Also, they tend to put a ton of unnecessary crap in. Also, I see no possible way to use JavaScript efficiently if you never type in any scripting code (when I say eficiently, I mean, get it to do ANYTHING you want that it can, which is a lot)...

      Agreed. Simpletext / BBEdit are quickly becoming my only scripting programs, and I've long since ceased using GoLive or Dreamweaver. They added so much unnecessary code and / or didn't insert it in a functional or correct way.

      Funny though, 'cause I do still use a WYSIWYG editor for Dreamwave 😛 ('cept for the CSS and JavaScript). It's called a combination of laziness and lack of time. But as for sites I make money off of, those are done by hand. It's the way to go.

      I don't really see anything wrong with using a WYSIWYG editor for site maintenance, as maintenance can be dull and boring and time consuming, and the editor just makes it easier and faster. I personally don't use an editor at all, but that's just because I'm a hell of a lot faster when mucking with the source code than with dragging and dropping elements in an editor; for me, using a WYSIWYG editor would double or triple the time it took me to do something, just because I'm unfamiliar with how the program operates.

      Aye, all of my website maintenence is done with WYSIWYG editors. Otherwise I (and I'm sure many others) would have to quit keeping up with their websites for complete lack of time. Heck, I threw together that quick note on Dreamwave's home page in 5 minutes last night. It would have been more like 20-30 minutes through hand scripting. :rolleyes:
