Jeez, you've inspired me to re-do my website

Although your going to have to teach me how you did those drop down menu's. I've tried it in JavaScript many times, I never got it right. Hehe.


I'm now 100% sure that MiSoft is the most actual 'business' on the TGC forums. You guys are gonna do great.

Looking good, especially the drop down menus. However, I did notice that the scroll bar on the right side of the Eternal Equinox page does not work. I'm using Firefox.

I'll take a look at that one, that would be a page of mine. We noticed some problems before in older Firefox versions or small resolutions (<1024*768), would you by any chance be using by one of those?

Version 2.0.0.11
Resolution: 1024*768

I made my resolution larger than that to test it, and it still didn't work.

The scrollbar doesn't work at all for me in Firefox, version 2.0.0.11. [edit] Actually it kind of does, the mouse wheel operates it fine, I just can't drag it.

Hire me some staff and give me a few years, and I'll see what I can come up with.

By the way, I'm loving the Cheney Hunter website.

@Ben and everyone else having issues. This is because the palm tree image is blocking the scroll bar in lower resolutions... I thought Rami had fixed that issue with z-indexing some stuff but either he sent me the wrong version to upload or he never fixed it. I'll yell at him ^_^

Don't! I'll yell back at you (and I can yell harder)!

Just change the z-index as necessary, Adam - should fix it. Think I forgot to save the fix (A).

And partially because I ordered him to get some R&R, lol. Agent Dink is the biggest workaholic I've ever known, hehe. But yes, wallpapers are coming soon, it's been discussed rather frequently lately. Probably with the still unnamed "MISoft Mutt," maybe a few with our logo, some wallpapers for our individual games (a wallpaper with the Pod 9 box art FTW)... this is probably a good time to let us know what wallpapers you guys would like to see on our website

Congrats on the launch. The news boxes are nice and attractive. The logo is slick. The buttons and pop up menus are great.

My take: Swap the logo to the left hand side. It looks really awkward on the right, while a picture of a dog is on the left. The "recent releases" on the left look extremely crammed with text. It just doesn't look like an area that was meant to handle all that info. Maybe just a pic of the product with some lines of description? Same with boxes on the opposite side. Looks crammed, taking away from the niceness in the middle.

Thanks Megs . I figured if anyone found something to not like, it'd be you, so it's a relief that you finally posted, lol. If I remember correctly, I was sort of pushy with Dink about keeping the game releases there, so it's really my fault there's such an information traffic jam there.

@ Rami: Oh yeah, the Pod 9 box art is probably my favorite box art, that or Cheney Hunter. I have to say, when Dink suggested the concept of box art, I was a bit hesitant about it, but after seeing it, I can't imagine having our games shown any other way.

Wallpaper Gallery is now up. There will be more wallpapers and more resolutions as we make them. Different resolutions for the ones we have will most likely come first though.

Cool, I like the EE2 and Pod 9 backgrounds, but the other ones (with the MISoft logo) feel quite empty, maybe something could be done with the background?

They're meant to feel empty really. Those are my favorite kinds of background, clean and neat. To me it makes the desktop seem bigger and more open. Nothing feels quite so cluttered. Anyhow, we'll have more in the future

The competition is laid out in our forums. The community gets to name the "MISoft Mutt" our new mascot. Head on over to our forums and check it out

Yes, I have some other projects on my plate at the moment but I will be resizing the available wallpapers to work in more resolutions.

However if you can't wait that long, I recommend you download Gimp and resize them yourself

I know what I'll do... I'll make Rami resize them all...

Breaking out the whip, that's what I like to see. Nice wallpapers, though. My biggest suggestion is to have site navigation on the game pages. That way you can go back to the site without exiting a window. That's the only big problem I have.
