A lot of changes over at MJ

I know a lot of you are familiar with my site, but many may not be, or if you are, you may not have seen it recently.

Anyway, I've spent the last few weeks constantly tweaking everything, and the layout is almost completely done. The stylesheet is one by JC, although some minor changes for my site, I really like how it looks.

Also, the new header is finally up. For about a year it was nothing more than a picture of our sticker with a couple links. The only real things left to add is to purchase reviewpost, put up our online store, and try to come up with a good way to display all of the technical articles the users have written.

That should about do it until 6.4 comes along

It's looking really good Godfather

I really love the color scheme and the borders on the tables are blending in very nice!!

Well done!!

Thanks.

Yeah, I just acquired the Godfather title because my fiance calls me that, she said "You are the godfather of jeeps".

Essentially, because no matter where I go throughout the state, people know me, stop to talk to me, wave.. and if I meet up with them for lunch, I get free food, drinks, people re-arrange their schedules to make sure I can make it...

It's kinda funny, but kinda creepy in a way. Like this one time, we go to Red Lobster for dinner, and we're at the bar waiting for our table, when the bartender says "hey, the drink's on me". I'm like what in the heck? And he says "Yeah, you run that jeep site, I know you.. let me know what you want, and I'll take care of it".

Being an admin does have some privileges

You the man Jeremy...er, Godfather.

Kewl!!!!!

lookeeng good jeremy

on the right, the left td needs updating on its style

Allen, what browser? In IE6 I don't see a problem.. I may have to fire up my linux machine and try some other browsers

On Firebird it looks just fine. On IE it looks as if the TD where the links are is raised while the TD on the left is embossed.

This is from a thread in chit chat.

Here is a screenshot Jeremy. I don't know if Allen was referring to this.

yeah, that's what I saw, I'm using winxp ie6

strange, the code looks ok... you might try putting an

& amp;

(no spaces) in that empty td between the font tags

or the best solution would probably be making that one td instead of 2 side by side

I know why I've never seen it before.. it only shows up like that when you're logged out

I'll take a look at that and it shouldn't be too hard to fix

Thanks for pointing it out

Well isn't that odd.. here is the code for that area.. and both are using the same class, so they should look identical

Code

<br /><td class=\"menubar\" valign=\"middle\" width=\"50%\">$menu2</td><td class=\"menubar\" width=\"50%\" align=\"right\" valign=\"middle\">$menu&nbsp;</td></tr>$tbclose<br />";

Since when you are logged in, there are links that are supposed to be displayed set by the $menu2 variable.

But since you are logged out, there is no $menu2 information, somewhere it must be getting a different class.

I'm too tired to look for it, so I'll let it be for now. It is just a cosmetic issue, and the next version of PP is headed to templates anyway

I'd change it to

$menu

So that if $menu has no value - then at least there's a space there. I think the cell doesn't appear right when it's totally empty.

oops, & nbsp; is what I meant earlier

Got your back AA.

Hi...IMO, Josh's coolbluelines were the clear winner in the distinguished stylesheets sweepstakes until now. (Ahough I do like some of the more colorful styles, they don't work so well for serious discussions.) But now there's the MJ style from JC! I really like it!!! Tony

Well, the style that I'm using is called Colonial, by JC. Again, a few minor tweaks here and there, but that style will get you pretty close to what I have so far

It looks nice colonial or otherwise

Actually it matches my vision of a jeep... kind of beige from the mud... Going where no man has gone before...

Looks good

MJ?

MJ = Michigan Jeepers.. they were thinking the style was something specific to my site, but infact was your colonial

Ahhhh
