5523Pathfinder Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 The new banner is looking My-T-Fine! Good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezzy Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 current one is really wide wider than my screen @ 1024x768 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88pathoffroad Posted December 5, 2006 Author Share Posted December 5, 2006 I love the TOTM banner, too. Maybe the whole thing could be scaled down in size a skosh to save bandwidth? And maybe include more TOTM winners too cause I'm in there somewhere....years ago....can't remember...so far back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88pathoffroad Posted December 5, 2006 Author Share Posted December 5, 2006 I scaled it down to 1000 wide. How's that? I know lots of laptops max out at 800x600, but most people have at least a 17" monitor nowadays running at least 1152x864 or so. Ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezzy Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Well, I figured if we did something like that one we could change it every January with the past years winners... you just gotta win December's I can resize, do you mean height, width, or file quality?

Pezzy Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 .. maybe 800 px wide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedPath88 Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 I made it 1028 wide... my bad :X Perhaps we should find out what res. people are running at... I can remake that for 800x600 screen (so there is no loss in quality, as there is when an image is simply resized), but as with the others it will look small for many of us whoa, forgot what 800x600 looks like. I have become so used to 1280x1024 with my 17in CRT and now 1440x900 with my 19in LCD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPath88 Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 I'm probably killing 88 with my questions about the forums software, but... Does it (forum software) allow for custom header displaying based on the resolution detected/reported by the browser requesting the page? IOW, can it automatically display a smaller of larger header so that it "fits" any give screen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Dank Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Well you can change the CSS to instead of giving the header a definite pixel amount, you can use a percentage value, so not matter how big someone's screen is, you can set it at like 75% or something along the lines of that. By the way, I must say, the new header looks good. Much better than the last, as the letters were hard to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Dank Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 (edited) Just took a look at the source and it would be an easy fix. Currently, the html is : <center> <img src="http://hosting.damagedreality.com/redpath88nporaheaderpic2.jpg"> </center> You can add a div tag and give it an id and then up above where all the CSS is displayed, add the style. For example: <div id="headerpic><img src="http://hosting.damagedreality.com/redpath88nporaheaderpic2.jpg"></div> And add in the CSS: #headerpic{ width: 75%; text-align: center; } I removed the <center> tags in the HTML and added them to the CSS, since <center> tags in HTML are no longer the best way to format in compliance to W3C standards.(If you have no idea what that means, thats ok.) This is what I do for a living, so if anyone has any ?'s, I'd be glad to help out. Edited December 5, 2006 by DJ Dank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The header is still rather large in my window, and to view it I have to scroll sideways Edited December 5, 2006 by Jdpathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezzy Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 heh, where were you when I was arguing with the header I made? That was a learning experience!! DJ, is there a way to make my file smaller, but not kill the quality?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Dank Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 heh, where were you when I was arguing with the header I made? That was a learning experience!! DJ, is there a way to make my file smaller, but not kill the quality?? Hmm, I must have missed that. Well I always use the Save for Web feature in PS. That way I can compare the original to the modified file, side by side and see how much the quality has depreciated. PS does a good job with preserving file quality and decreasing file size at the same time. Example: Here's an original JPEG at 172kb: And here's the same picture thats been modified the way I just mentioned and its only at 45kb. Doesn't seem like the quality has been decreased as much as the file size, does it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
