Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by user27089 on 03-08-2005 at 09:48 PM

As a lot of you may know, earlier last year, I started to create small video's helping users of plus! uninstall the sponsor program, later on last year, I created a website, called 'Messenger Plus! Support', helping users of plus!...

There we some complaints about the look of the website and its crappy look when viewed in any resolution lower than 1024x768, but now, I've tested this in several resolutions, and it generally looks good and lives up to the standards of a basic website, it took me 2 to 3 hours to code, using notepad :p and of course Photoshop for the logo :).

I've made it:

  • Easy on the eyes
  • Easy to understand
  • Easy to navigate
  • Good on all resolutions above 800x600
  • Useful content

So here it is: http://www.mpsupport.net

Chestah and I have found a problem, if you're running Norton Internet Security, it hides links that contain anything to do with adware/spyware/virus' etc. so I'll try and make this so it doesn't happen. As the second link on the menu is 'Sponsor Support'. I'll probably make it an image :).

Love the design, nice, simple, and an efficient use of frames. Bonus points for using notepad ;).

RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by L. Coyote on 03-08-2005 at 11:42 PM

Great work, trax! (Y)

This design is much simpler and nice to the eye, and users won't need to look much to find stuff. :P


RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by jren207 on 03-08-2005 at 11:43 PM

Looks good, looks better than last time. Very useful (y)


RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by Hank on 03-09-2005 at 12:36 AM

RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by -dt- on 03-09-2005 at 04:55 AM

RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by Stigmata on 03-09-2005 at 07:46 AM

bah at least finish it before releasing :D

:o oh the div's

(personal joke)


RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by user27089 on 03-09-2005 at 08:03 AM

Hmm, its pretty much finished, I'm sorting out pafiledb for the plugins, and I'm gathering links :p.


RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by John Anderton on 03-09-2005 at 08:39 AM

As usual great work trax ;)
Looks really good :P
Found a few probs so here they are.
1) The grey background is smaller for me than the rectangular frame (Main frame in which page loads)
2) Not so much as a prob but still 8-) In the tips n tricks it sayz that you can make the sayz go away by using white colour for it but what if im using a black background :rolleyes:
I's using 800x600 screen resolution and the grey part (background) ends at the bottom of my screen but the main frame goes down a bit more. If u need a screenie then tell me.


RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by user27089 on 03-09-2005 at 09:17 AM

I'd love a screenie thanks. send it to traxor[at]gmail.com and I'll speak to you about it later :). It will always have problems with smaller resolutions, but if I can make it better for people, then I will :).


RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by Mike on 03-09-2005 at 12:28 PM

Hmmm...
It seems that the site also works right with IE (Y)

But personally, I don't like the colours... :-/
I dont like grey...
I have to say that I liked the old design better...

Maybe an option to switch designs? 8-)

There were lots of problems with the previous layouts and I've deleted it now I'm afraid, it was only compatible with firefox/1024x768... anything below or above made the layout okay, but now, the layout is compatible with most resolutions and all browsers... Its simple and easy on the eyes as I said :)...

I'll make some changes soon if people don't like the colours that much, I think its very nice :p.
RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by Eljay on 03-09-2005 at 04:51 PM

looks pretty nice :)
i just dont really like iframes much thats all :P

also make some little thumbnail pics for the sponsor page instead of having to load the massive pictures as that page takes quite a while to load because of it

apart from that nice site :D

your wish is my command, I'll get to work now, I'll also try and get a work around for the 'sponsor' button :P.

* user27089 will make an image :D

I've done the thumbnails now, so each image that you press on the sponsor page is only around 89Kb :p... Go me, now I'm going to try and do the sponsor problem, but I doubt it will still be able to load, I may have to just change the name :).

Duno though, it would be easier :p... I may aswell give it a go :).
RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by aNILEator on 03-09-2005 at 05:38 PM

Well trax i'm not impressed at all, i thought you could do alot better than that.

I thought the old style looked good enough :), i suggest changing the menu text to something different


RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by Pr0xY on 03-09-2005 at 05:43 PM

Very Nice Traxor, looks great... :)

I think I achieved okay for 2 - 3 hours using notepad :s... Well, I guess there will be doubts, but I didn't want some big ass amazing design, I wanted something completely simple and easy to look at, I didn't want something completely outrageous and amazing...
RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by user27089 on 03-14-2005 at 04:25 PM

Sorry for the support, I've just added support to the site for users that are using low resolution (800x600)...

I'm sorting out the plugins database now.


RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by user35870 on 03-14-2005 at 04:32 PM

RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by user27089 on 03-14-2005 at 04:36 PM

I'm thinking of getting it translated into something other than British, but for this I need translators, would anybody be willing to translate it for me, I'll make a thread where you can apply.


RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by haydos on 03-14-2005 at 04:48 PM

RE: Messenger Plus! Support Re-Born by user27089 on 03-14-2005 at 04:51 PM
