Post Script Frenzy stuff
Submitted by Earok on Wed, 04/28/2010 - 19:16Following Script Frenzy, I have decided to take a breather from game development as well for a bit and just concentrate on my website projects.
For the last couple of mornings I've been up at 6am or so and messing around with earok.net until work starts. Mainly it's to do with tidying up the apperance of the games pages, if you have a look at the Derelict page (http://earok.net/derelict) you can see I have made bit of a screenshot mozaic, and also the screenshots open in a nice jquery powered 'Lightbox' slideshow window if you click on them.
Although I am competent with raw HTML and understand PHP well enough to hack it, my CSS skills are severely lacking. I am learning though, Drupal has a great module called 'CSS injector' which lets you add CSS in a form, rather then having to edit the styles.css file. And the Firebug extension for Firefox is brilliant.
I also want to add functionality to make the site more useful for readers (Such as making an RSS feed for recent comments), ramp up the site performance as much as possible, and possibly look at developing a "Portfolio" type section I could use to better promote my game and web development work.
And there's a bunch of things I really want to do on the Playmaker site, I have done virtually no enhancements to it for the previous month, partly because I haven't been bothered getting my Playmaker test site up and running again for me to muck around!
That's all for now, any suggestions?

Sometimes I forget you live in the same building you work in... Must make things so easy. :S I wake up at 7am and struggle to get to work in time. :S
Personally I want to make a personal 'micro blogging' portal for drupal.. But I haven't found the time. :S
Heh, I can leave for work at 8:29am and be on time at 8:30am.
Certainly a micro blogging portal would be possible to do in Drupal, perhaps even easy, but the real question is why?
Because I post microblogs to many places, and I would like to be able to do so from work and the like. :S Currently I use gwibber which is a desktop application.
It's possible to post to twitter from drupal via use of the twitter drupal module, but I think that's only when you're posting new content (Which it creates a bitly link for)
