Default The Star Trek Meshes Collection

Yes!

You may or may not know it, but the STMC is still on-line. And has been since september 1998, with some downtime here and there.

That's the good thing. What's the bad thing, you wonder?
The site design, that's the bad thing! It hasn't changed for 6 years either, and it wasn't fantastic even then!

So I'm holding a contest for those interested in site design. If you're interested, please check it out at http://www.trekmeshes.ch.

And BTW: WarriorDL, good to hear from you again

you're right, the site design sucks even for my standards.

and they're already low.

ROFLOL!
No quite seriously, I don't understand why so many star trek websites try to model their displays like lcars thingies... it's so cliche by now.

*LOL* Thanks guys, for sticking up for me on my weekend away .
Yep, back in '98, LCARS was hardly done, and some sites even copied my design one on one. That's how it became cliche . I think holodeck.com is the only site I saw back then with LCARS.

I've done a little bit of interim work . At least the font and links look *slightly* better now . There's also a new public gallery.

Go PHP, man

Gives you the most freedom of updating.

Hey Warrior! . How's things? You still on ICQ?

Most of the site right now's already PHP. I just need the creative stuff to give it some shape .

It's up!

A new design is up. Simple, yet elegant I think. What do you thing?

Not really using includes, no. Every file is very structured, but I started off too chaotic to work towards includes....

Not a bad start on the re-design, Erik.

I have a few suggestions, but I'll register at your forums to discuss them.

I think it was actually an issue with the resolution (1024x768) as you posted on your forum

Probably, it looks 'all wrong' when it doesn't fit into the screen

BTW: If anyone here wants to do a logo (see the site), then even if you've only got a minute (the best designs are done over coffee ), try one!
