Socoder -> Art and Sound -> Button design contest
Thu, 26 Oct 2006, 19:19
HoboBen	Heya all, A while ago, if you remember, we all designed buttons for CodersWorkshop. I even wrote a javascript code for people to quickly link to, that would choose one of the buttons randomly, and display it as a link. I think quite a few people actually used it too, which is cool. Now that the new forums are here (or at DevCrunch, but I'm sure they can take the initiative and design their own buttons and copy+paste my scripts for it), perhaps we should start designing some SoCoder buttons, for SoCoder linking! What's fun is that because there are so many SoCoder styles, there's no set logo... So you can all go wild. I'll cut'n'paste'n'edit my existing CW random button serving script for SoCoder buttons, for people to use if they want, unless someone can write a nicer one. It's 2:20am, so I'm not designing any art until the morning... But anyone sleeping decent hours in a different time-zone could get started now. \|edit\| ... Assuming Jay doesn't mind this being done for any reason. \|edit\| \|edit\| Also, just to clarify, I'm not deleting the CW link script, either. Hopefully when it's back up, it'll be a useful site. \|edit\| \|edit\| Standard 88 by 31 buttons, please. \|edit\| \|edit\| I'll do (attempt?) an XHTML version of the scripts too, just in case. \|edit\| \|edit\| GIF images, preferably. \|edit\| -=-=- blog \| work \| code \| more code

tnt23	"A while ago, if you remember, we all designed buttons for CodersWorkshop." My idea, thanks for giving me credit. Anyway, I'll do one... eventually.. -=-=- What if this were not a hypothetical question?

Stealth	Here is what I came up with. https://ser8.imgdump.net/images/10272006/s8_8783daf82411af8.bmp (I cant figure out the image tags, they wont work.. Heres the URL.) -=-=- Quit posting and try Google.

HoboBen	My idea, thanks for giving me credit. Sorry, but I didn't want to get it wrong, and say something like "it was Firemaker's idea" - I figured that would be even worse. If CW had been up, I would've checked, honest. -=-=- blog \| work \| code \| more code

Jayenkai	That's a great badge, TNT! Now go make a theme to go with it -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
Sun, 05 Nov 2006, 01:58
Yayyak	My vote: That theme should be called 'Headspin'
Tue, 07 Nov 2006, 21:46
tnt23	I thought it was pretty bad... if I made a theme like that, I would have to put a disclaimer: warning, may cause blindness and seizures. -=-=- What if this were not a hypothetical question?
