Nitroware Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 My website, www.nitroware.org, has a really neat content management system, for phpbb, that i designed. As you will see, home, weather, and others to come are all run by the same script. Check it out!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redbullmarky Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 erm...hate to be critical, but i have a few problems with it:1, it has a flash banner. i hate flash (but thats a personal opinion, not a dig at what you've done with it)2, it's very grey3, it's phpBB. nowadays, there are so many better, still free forums.4, so it tells the weather. on a forum. hope i havent missed the point, but why is that a good thing? oh, and it doesnt tell me the weather here in Bedfordshire, so is useless to me.5, content management system? please go on, i'm curious.cheers[b]edit[/b]: whoops, this aint website critique...

Nitroware Posted October 26, 2006 Author Share Posted October 26, 2006 Its ok, i like people critiqing my website.Anyway, I have a script that by the id title (in the url), it looks into a table in a database and chacks to see if there is an enrty. If there is, it reads the php code and displays it, with all the other info. Really handy. I also made it display all the pages that i had in the DB, I didnt like it, so i ditched it. If you would like to see the source, I can show you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninjakreborn Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Yes the source would be interesting to say the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doni49 Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Regarding the flash--a REAL turn off for me too. ESPECIALLY when you add sound. When I start a page and it automatically starts playing audio, I close the page and go ELSEWHERE. I don't even get a chance to see if the site has anything of interest to me.

steelmanronald06 Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 some of us listen to music on occasion, and when we go to your site, it blairs through our speakers that on instinct we exit to stop the noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doni49 Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 If you want to put the OPTION to play sound, then so be it. SOME people might like it--if that's your target audience, then go for it. But [I'm] on of the people that you'll drive away.And as far as using flash for animation that's ok--but if I have to wait for the animation to finish loading before I see the content, I'm probably gone as well. On some of the sites I've been too, the first page is NOTHING but a flash animation followed by loading the actual content--GOOD GRIEF! At least SOME of those have a "Skip Intro" link. If they don't G'Bye!Either show me the content [b]or[/b] show me how good at developing flash you've become--but don't try to do both. UNLESS of course I've specifically been told that this site has what I'm looking for. If a friend sent me there, I'd probably wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shockstomp Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 It's like going to a hot chick's myspace and Mariah Carey BLASTS at you out of nowhere, leaving you fumbling for the fastest way to shut it off.It's just obnoxious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsladek Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 Not to mention if I am at work and screwing off and get to your site then I visit your site and next thing I know the boss is wondering what the heck I am doing......http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_O_5ef49N5I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkBait Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 I dont have my speakers on so I am missing the audio, but why is the header 'breathing'? It also pixalates like crazy too.If its a CMS, where is the content part of it? I see a front page into a Forum... And no explaination as to what the site is about.. I'm all confused :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
