Every once in a while I get a little inspiration, and here's what it's given me this time (I apologize for the big images in advance) :And for a means of comparison... How'd I do? ------------------

Oh, BTW....In the finished site the red light will flash and touching the text on the right will trigger a mouseover to change the picture on the viewer. I'm also trying to fix that little green shape (gee, aren't I descriptive? *o_O*) on the bottom...grrrr... ------------------ WAIT......

I'd like to know what any of this has to do with Star Trek? I'm just asking since I can't sleep and have nothing else better to do.------------------ "Its origin and purpose, still a total mystery." -Dedication Plaque quote from the U.S.S. Odyssey

Actually, Andrew, it is a Trek only board. Check the main page. It says 'Star Trek', and under that title you find a link to this forum.

Tis True Two Woo Two Woo! didn't notice that - but I don't think it REALLY matters, except for our more pedantic of posters *grin* oh well, I was going to post my designs for a workable FTL drive - but seeing as its only a Trek sub-board... ------------------ "Ooh, FASA." - The Shadow, aka Frank G - June 1999

This was supposed to be turned into one of the general sci-fi forums anyway, for stuff like this. Maybe CC will take the hint. ------------------ http://frankg.dgne.com/ RB: "'Get a life' is a phrase heard a lot, though I have never known exactly what kind was implied.

*sticks her tongue out at all of you* Besides, I ASKED Charles where to post this and this is where he sent me. :PThe Flare Forums are for Sci-Fi, not just Star Trek. The SolarEclipse Network may be branching out into some Star Wars stuff in the futute as well. ------------------

I'm going to guess that the big "Copyright EclipseArts" isn't going to be in the final version, either, eh? :-)------------------ "They gave the ferret a teleprompter!" -Louie the Lizard, Budweiser commercial

No, sorry about that....I'm a paranoid, anal artist who would throw a total hissy fit if I ever found anyone using my layout on their site. *LOL*No offence, I trust you guys, I just don't release many public copies of my stuff without making sure nobody else could possibly use it. ------------------

This makes me reconsider my opinion to restrict this forum to Trek. Anyone who has nice graphical stuff should keep it coming. I can't help I love this PADD, sorry, panel. Dani, would you give me some hints how you have done it?

Here's the working demo. D-E-M-O! I still need to cut down on the image filesizes. http://sapphire.solareclipse.net/JediMasters/
Hints? Good grief...I really wouldn't know where to begin...The best thing to do is to pick a graphics program and get to know it VERY well...I'm just getting to that point now. All the graphics I do are made with Photoshop 5, which I will swear by as THE best general graphics tool around. There's no 3D in this at all, all the shadows, bumps and indentations are all created by photoshop filters. I'd love to field any more specific questions... ------------------

Oh, I'm also changeing the mouseovers a bit...each viewscreen will be different, not just showing different text. Once again, I'm just tired and calling it quits for the evening...*L* Total project time sits at around 6 hours or so.------------------

I couldn't agree with you more Dani, Photoshop 5 kicks so much ass it's not funny.
