Exclamation Re: SOAP GameDay: Week 2

UPDATE!

Interface:I just completely restructured the way the interface works. It looks exactly the same, but has some major features that all of you have been asking for. The biggest is resizeable frames. All content frame edges can be dragged to fit your desired dimensions. This will clear up most issues on any resolution. Another neat part of the interface is that the chat is now static. When you change events, the chat doesn't change. No more excessive joining/leaving messages. Also, the refreshing windows will not steal focus of the chat if it is selected.

As for actual content, when you are in the dashboard, you are now able to view event information without going to a specific event. Over the chat, the information page will appear. There is a dropdown with this week's events so you can easily navigate between events. This dropdown also appears on the event info pages when it is on the right.

SMS: I am still working out some kinks with the SMS system. I will contact those who have contacted me about testinting this system hopefully before noon eastern. If all goes well for an hour or so with the testing, SMS alerts will open to everyone.

Ticker: Early yesterday, there were some issues with the ticker. The double display is now fixed, but there is an error when the event count is greater than 4. I will fix that early today.


Thats it for now. Hope you guys enjoy the new interface!

Note: Even though the URL doesn't change when you use the new interface, you are still able to link to specific events using "?=event<abbreviation>".
Example: http://gameday.soap108.com/?event=va for VCU

7:55am - Ticker fixed. It should work properly now.
