Well, time has come to unveil my creation, unfortunatly i'm very short on time, and i haven't fully finished the site (gonna be working all night to meet the deadline). So i'm going to make this quick, and post a longer features list in the near future..
http://www.team1039.org/main/index.php
*Created 100% by me (Ozan Turgut, Team 1039 Chief Sealth Robotics).
I did not use ANY scripts from ANYwhere, no phpNuke. no Mamba, not even small scripts, this entire website (including all of the graphics) was done by me between january 5th, and today. the exceptions are: The forum (phpBB), and Macromedia Fireworks automaticly generated the mouseover scripts for the graphic navigation
*Extremely compatible
Tested to work (and look alike) on Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, Opera, Firefox, Mozilla. Simple mode (where there are no visual-only graphics) generates a page that is about 1/3 less size than the graphic mode while retaining all content (the script resides in the same page, thus you are not actually going to a different URL)
Will work on any resolution. I've tested this from 600x400 to 1600x1200. All of the fonts are dynamicly sized, thus by changing your browsers font size you can adjust the page to look exactly the same in 800x600 as it does in 1600x1200 (of course unless you are using Opera the images do not resize)
No need for Javascript or Cookies. These two are totally optional, javascript is only if you want to see the mouse over images in the navigation, and cookies will remember your mode setting for your future visit(s). If you have turned off your cookies the script will just add a tag in the URL that follows you everywhere.
You can even browse it if you're blind. If you have a speech capable browser, all content is acessable, all images have ALT text, all links have Titles, all accronyms and abbriviations are tagged.
Know where you're going: All links are tagged, if a link is pointing to with in team1039.org it will turn to a cyan color on mouse over, if it is pointing outside of team1039.org it will turn blue.
I know i said a short list of feature, but this is the short list
now i gotta get back to work, please critique it as harshly as possible, i'd much rather have "I don't like the XXXX" than "wow, good job!". Because the first one will help make it better, while the second (although very kind) will just make me smile.
Thanks!
