| Hello Everybody! Well, today's the day! The bid official launch of my new website. After dealing with mixed thoughts about continuing to maintain my old website (www.rotule.qc.ca, dead now) or upgrading it, I opted to creating a new and improved (...)

| (...) Any high contrast scheme will tire the eyes, be it black on white or white on black. But there's more: I don't have very good sight, wearing strong glasses (-9.5, -9.75 if that tells you anything). Also only use one eye at a time (anyone of (...) (21 years ago, 27-Nov-03, to lugnet.publish)

| (...) You may want to give a slightly better clue, it didn't jump out at me where to change stylesheets to get your own style. True, I didn't spend a lot of time digging but you're the one advocating the technique so it's on you to provide the good (...) (21 years ago, 27-Nov-03, to lugnet.publish)
| | | | | Re: JCB JS220 Excavator
|
| (...) It is interesting you say that, because that was one of the reasons I chose the colour scheme for the website. I like to do my coding in xterms with black backgrounds and sometimes even green text for the true "days gone by" effect. I suppose (...) (21 years ago, 27-Nov-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.publish)

|
| (...) Pft. You don't need to do that - just need to add a <link> tag (I believe) to the header and you're all set. Don't even need to make it smart - all the pages can point to a css that's really a dynamic file, and that will output content based (...) (21 years ago, 26-Nov-03, to lugnet.publish)
| | | | | Re: JCB JS220 Excavator
|
| (...) Jennifer, CSS is super-easy to learn - pretty much just one line of ASP and one or two text files containing a few lines of definitions. How to let the user pick is not something I've had experience with. My home website ((URL) uses a CSS (...) (21 years ago, 26-Nov-03, to lugnet.publish)
| | | | | Re: JCB JS220 Excavator
|
| (...) Sounds reasonable, although it would probably be difficult to retrofit, given that the rendered images on the website have black rather than transparent backgrounds and would not look correct. The fact that I know nothing about CSS would make (...) (21 years ago, 26-Nov-03, to lugnet.publish)
| | | | | Re: JCB JS220 Excavator
|
| (...) I prefer the light on dark colorscheme. But I'd recommend just having several CSS files lying about, and allow the user to pick which one is used (or even use their own :) But that's just me :) (21 years ago, 26-Nov-03, to lugnet.publish)

| (...) The models do take a very long time (many months), and sometimes I can spend days on relatively trivial parts like the upper part of the cab, and then change it to something else entirely later. It's just an incremental thing really, I don't (...) (21 years ago, 26-Nov-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.publish)
| | | | | Re: Is it the End of Creations Rotule's website ?
|
| (...) Well, following the advice my wife gave me, I've decided to keep the website. It will get a totally new image though, but I think it will be for the best. I'll keep the best features, I'll drop one or two, add one or two and everything should (...) (21 years ago, 22-Nov-03, to lugnet.publish)

In that article, the phone was quite highly (and (...) (21 years ago, 13-Nov-03, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
