What's missing from Dominus's Mega-Guide?

posted on October 23rd, 2009, 3:02 am

I have a couple of remarks about your website first of all good idea. secondly id recommend updating the picture on the main page just b/c the sovereign is not the sovereign that is currently ingame. thirdly could you re-size your pages, i just find it a little annoying when pages are not sized correctly. Mostly these are little nitpicks so dont worry about it too much but if you have a little time they would be nice.

Hehe, I take it you mean the poster picture (haven't added nearly all the corner pictures... there will be a unique one for every page)? That was released by the Fleet Ops team a few years back, and I wanted to have that added for nostalgia's sake (there is also a Rommie one and a Dominion one... the Rommie one will be added, but the Dominion one I didn't like so much. I guess I'll move it from the main page, but I'd still like to keep it up there since the Devs made it in the first place

I'll talk to Zebh about the pages: I believe they use dynamic scaling... incidentally, what browser are you using (IE 6 and below tends to give problems, the rest should be fine)?

The page width is designed to be dynamic, and that causes some minor problems in some situations. I will fix the issue with the extra width at some point.

So Zebh and I were chatting, and we've decided to "add a black bar over the Sovie... that will show up only when Dircome accesses the page"

How does that sound? :lol:

I jest, don't worry, just it is funny because as Zebh reminded me, this image is also on the FO homepage!
