03/27/99 15:10 EST - Consoles tutorial - Part I Update by Eutectic
  • Parts II and III soon to come


  • Ok, here is the first part of the consoles tutorials I promised you. As usual, this is a lot more work than I thought and therefore will take longer than expected too. So I decided to post it in separate parts so you guys have something to set your teeth into right away.

    I said it would take 4 to 5 days for the tutorial. Now it's starting to look more like 4 to 5 days for each part. For those of you who are eager to create interactive consoles right away: sorry but there's a LOT of stuff to cover about consoles and I don't want to "burn the steps" and thus end up confusing people. And there's lots of custom graphics to create and this also takes time.

    I want to take the occasion to thank my good friend Bushboy for his precious advice on how to work with graphics. His knowledge has proved invaluable in helping me keep the images file size down without sacrificing visual quality. This will help to make the tutorial pages load faster than before.

    Thanks a lot bud! :)
     

    03/19/99 23:19 EST - Another major site rework Update by Eutectic
  • And a little bonus


  • Wow! Nearly a month since I last updated. Guess I've never been much of an HTML nut.

    I did a major rework to the site (again). First, now it's 100% frames so the page layout is preserved no matter what link you click on and from what page. This was a major pain to fix but I figured it was worth it. Also, you will notice that there is a new navigation toolbar at the top of the page with new links: SinEd Tutorials, Other tutorials, files, tools. I basically took all the stuff that was crammed up in the old tools page and split it up into separate and neat pages. This should make navigating through the tutorials and finding stuff a lot easier. Feedback is welcome as always.

    The only thing that's new in terms of content is my SinEd Basics tutorial. I once said I would never make a tutorial about basic stuff... Well, I guess I lied :)

    Hope you like it and I don't need to tell you where it is. Just look at the toolbar :)
