Oddworld Universe - v4

***Alcar*** · #1 10-18-2002, 11:42 AM

Well, it had to happen sooner or later!

I've finally grown sick of the design, actually i've been sick of it since I designed it. I'm such a perfectionist and excessive compulsive, damn me!

Anyway, I'd just like you all to check it out and give me some feedback, what you dislike and what you like basically.

Feel free to air anything about it, because with the software I've created I can change everything, instantly! Yay me!

So, anyway the link to the "prototype": http://www.oddworlduniverse.com/misc/v4

Just a note as well, the new version won't be released until a month or so later.

looks very good!
but the other one was more colorfull

***Wil*** · #4 10-18-2002, 04:58 PM

Cool, looking good. Very professional in style. I like it.

I especially like the affiliates drop-down box at the top.

A month?? You can design and construct a website in a month?? I'm sooooooo jealous.

EDIT: I've just realised that 'the Universe hates me' in my sig could be confused for Oddworld Universe. No, it's not! I'll change it nevertheless.

3 words:
I LIKE IT

Majic · #6 10-18-2002, 09:33 PM

Yay. I like it.

I knew you would

Yeah, a month, and I promise that updating the Ask Max section won't be as tedious with all those problems with the old one! This new Oddworld Universe runs on PHP and uses a MySQL database to store all the information. Making it super fast! Yay!

Yeah, I do believe that it isn't as colourful as the last, but remember anything people find annoying I could remove off EVERY page in a second. I love me

I sort of liked the old one better, it was more colorful or friendly or something. But good job with the new one nonetheless. Your site is one of my favorite fan sites.

Hopefully you will also finish uploading the universe section. It is kind of ironic how your site is called the oddworld universe and is missing most of the universe section.

I know, and if it wasn't for my hard drive crashing numerous time, it'd be complete by now.

M.O.M · #10 10-19-2002, 09:44 AM

why does yur hard drive keep on crashing?

***Wil*** · #11 10-19-2002, 10:53 AM

Because, unlike my brain, it cannot handle all the knowledge of Oddworld.

M.O.M · #12 10-19-2002, 10:56 AM

They dont build them like they used to

***Alcar*** · #13 10-19-2002, 11:49 AM

Exactly...and maybe the fact I damaged one of them indirectly.

The other was just, well, old.

you might already know this but some of the links dont work

***Alcar*** · #16 10-20-2002, 08:51 AM

Oh, yeah, they all aren't working.

It's only a test version so far.

***Alcar*** · #20 10-22-2002, 04:54 AM

Is there nothing wrong with the website? There has to be something!

Alcar...

M.O.M · #21 10-22-2002, 07:10 AM

i cant see anything wrong with it. it looks pfoffessional and classy

***Alcar*** · #22 10-23-2002, 07:37 AM

I'd like to ask what you'd like to see written on the Main Image at the top of the page.

Like, should I only have the writing "Oddworld Universe" or include the saying "Resistance is futile, the odd will get you in the end" somewhere else on it?

Any ideas appreciated

Alcar...

M.O.M · #23 10-23-2002, 07:58 AM

How about:

1)Every Universe is its own

2)ODD: Something for everyone

i'll think of some better ones

***Alcar*** · #24 10-23-2002, 08:52 AM

Oh sorry, I wasn't asking for new sayings, I was asking whether people wanted to see just the title, or the "Resistance is futile, the odd will get you in the end" text as well, or whatever else.

Alcar...

M.O.M · #25 10-23-2002, 04:11 PM

oh yeah sorry, my bad

sO fReAkIn oDd · #26 10-23-2002, 09:41 PM

I think that it could use some more color. It's kind of bland and grey. But good job anyway!

M.O.M · #27 10-24-2002, 07:28 AM

i lik it as it is, it gives a misty and strange feeling to it

Joshy · #28 10-24-2002, 07:51 AM

mmmm... this site has a mysterious look that allures me to go deeper. Good Job Alcar, keep up the good work, this is way good.

M.O.M · #29 10-24-2002, 07:53 AM

thats what i mean, imagine walking out of a forest and into a misty silent village, it lures you in

***Alcar*** · #30 10-26-2002, 12:54 PM

Thankyou people for your input, I might as well unsticky this now!

But I have much work to do still on OWU v4. ALOT of work.
