You think you something about the ‘Internets’?

[LincolnMcGrath]

Webmaster? Pro Surfer? Blogger?

Now that I have you here let me take this opportunity to thank you and also especially everyone who participated in the previous thread with DUer’s County Party websites.

If money was no object, how would you design your website?

I would like to ask each and every DUer to post a link not to their County Party website, (unless it rules!) but to a site you think is cool, efficient, inviting, user friendly, etc. I don’t care what it is, it could be a online catalog for crotchless diapers for all I care. Post a site you enjoy and share with us why you enjoy it.

1. Well, check this one out then

Takes you right to the meat of the matter, shows the products without any clicks, lets you collect your favorite items and buy them. Simple. Easy. Fast.

2. That is a great site.

And you are correct, it is very efficient. Simple Easy Fast.

3. Oh, another almost perfect web site

http://eluxury.com

Easy to use, great zoom in and detail shots of the merchandise, clean and uncluttered. Awesome site, IMHO.

4. That would be handy for displaying pictures.

Lots of thumbnails on one page with a viewer for closer looks.

5. Here's one I just started building last night...

I like clean.

Here's a site I run that won an Addy.

6. That has flash nags

Don't want flash ads, so I don't have flash installed. Not a good example of a WEB site, IMHO. I expect you to disagree, so if it's ok by you, I won't be visiting your nagging site - at least the second one doesn't do that, it's just got broken flash icons all over the place.

:shrug: :)

13. Flash nags?

There's no flash in the site and I didn't put them there... Were there pop ups? It's cheap server site and I hope they aren't spamming my visitors.

Thanks so much for the info. If you could tell me exactly what's happening it would help me out a lot!

:toast: And thanks for your input!

16. I figured you would have had to have coded the javascript nags

How else would they get there? Here's a screen shot, if it helps, and the code that does the nags...

<script type="text/javascript">
function MM_CheckFlashVersion(reqVerStr,msg){
with(navigator){
var isIE = (appVersion.indexOf("MSIE") != -1 && userAgent.indexOf("Opera") == -1);
var isWin = (appVersion.toLowerCase().indexOf("win") != -1);
if (!isIE || !isWin){
var flashVer = -1;
if (plugins && plugins.length > 0){
var desc = plugins<"Shockwave Flash"> ? plugins<"Shockwave Flash">.description : "";
desc = plugins<"Shockwave Flash 2.0"> ? plugins<"Shockwave Flash 2.0">.description : desc;
if (desc == "") flashVer = -1;
else{
var descArr = desc.split(" ");
var tempArrMajor = descArr<2>.split(".");
var verMajor = tempArrMajor<0>;
var tempArrMinor = (descArr<3> != "") ? descArr<3>.split("r") : descArr<4>.split("r");
var verMinor = (tempArrMinor<1> > 0) ? tempArrMinor<1> : 0;
flashVer = parseFloat(verMajor + "." + verMinor);
}
}
// WebTV has Flash Player 4 or lower -- too low for video
else if (userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf("webtv") != -1) flashVer = 4.0;

var verArr = reqVerStr.split(",");
var reqVer = parseFloat(verArr<0> + "." + verArr<2>);

if (flashVer < reqVer){
if (confirm(msg))
window.location = "http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash";
}
}
}
}
</script>

17. Holy Crap! you lost me at

:rofl:

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

19. Thanks! I know what happened now!

I grabbed a chunk for a CSS style sheet and brought in something from a Dreamweaver sample that had the above in it...

In other words, I hurried too much.

Your info is much appreciated and I'll get rid of that shortly...

After I figure why the damn tables are different in Explorer & Firefox....

:toast: and thanks again.

7. Thank You

The Thermalcorp one is nice.

8. It would be very 'colorful'

:D

[LincolnMcGrath]

9. You always have a free standing offer for ideas.

Did you do some work for WRS?

[Swamp Rat]

12. Oops!

Sorry, I forgot to answer your email!

It's not much, but here is what I did for WRS:

[LincolnMcGrath]

14. That is awesome work Swamp Rat!

I'm trying to throw together a few billboards and a newly designed website for our County Party. Could the lizards invade Iowa next? lol

[Swamp Rat]

15. Sure!

I bet they are already there... but I do not know who they are. Are there any bigtime PNACers there?

I need names and faces. ;) :D

18. Chucky Grassley?
