JensenPark Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 I'll battle Angus for moderator of the henpecked area. If my wife would let me, that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted February 10, 2006 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 Hi. I have split the post containing our email addresses, and put it in the 'ready room' for now. As this room requires an account here and controlled group membership it will be safe from prying eyes there Please keep this up to date, could be handy during one of Quazi's formatting frenzies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted February 10, 2006 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 OK. Work will commence on the site this weekend. Some input on the aesthetics would be greatly appreciated. My thoughts so far: As the site is for both the DDs and the HHs we will have a common home page, this in turn will link to the sections suggested by Sloan. Now for the home page design, visually we could have one large and central image. Perhaps this could be a shot of a couple of warbirds with a generic (or not) group of flyers in front of it, sepia toned. The group of flyers could, of course, be caricatures of humans or dogs. Perhaps if all could provide a photo of themselves (or virtual selves even) There will be smaller iconic graphics below the main graphic that are links to sections within the main site. A menu bar will be above. For the squad info/squad specific portion of the site the above iconic links will link staright to the relevant squad. We can use the Hell Hounds logo for their section, but need to think about the Danger Dogz logo here. Rosters will be under each squad section. I think we will perhaps need split recruiting sections. Can someone from each squad provide some text on the squads mission statement please? Skins, missions and other squad member submissions will be a dual squad section. Now for you guys to give us some input Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairgowrie Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 Cold_Gambler might be a good guy to write the mission statement for the DD's. I'll send him an email now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JensenPark Posted February 11, 2006 Report Share Posted February 11, 2006 Cold_Gambler might be a good guy to write the mission statement for the DD's. I'll send him an email now. Oh, great. We'll get a 400 page tome full of incomprehensible legaleeze. “The minute you read something you don’t understand, you can be almost sure it was drawn up by a lawyer.†Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delta7 Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 Hi great ideas about the site- I would like a diary section so that squad members can see when squad nights and times are on and also if someone wants to arrainge training or practice they could post there and others could see what and who is available. I have a shot of spitfire at an air museum so if you wish to use this as background then you could photoshop others into group in front http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v640/ ... 6_0613.jpg or here is me in front already I can send origonals if required Or we could use a screenshot from the game as background I like idea of link to each persons details the link to application page and mission statement should be easily found on main page to allow people who may be interested in joining to get this info quickly and easily Ill follow this up with more later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleTap Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 One thing we could add would be tracks of missions we run together. That way those who don't make it one night can see what happened, and visitors can get an idea of what we do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted February 12, 2006 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 Keep the ideas coming in. A diary section is a good idea, perhaps it should link or be fed from a diary/ready room section on the forum? Missions, Skins and of course tracks is a great idea! The temporary page I have now put up includes a concept 'Shots of the Week'. This of course can feature screenies from said traks Nice spitfire shot Dave, let's get as many pictures as possible. I want to struggle to choose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sloan Posted February 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 Tracks is a great idea. Small file, low bandwidth usage and as long as ONE of us remembers to hit record, we'll be able to see all the fun that we've had and pull good screenshots after the fact.

1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted February 14, 2006 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 Any one got some screenshots I can use? Plus any other artwork that may be suitable. I'm champing at the bit here, but don't really have time to grab screenies of my own Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
