Sniperdoc -> Opinions on a Project (5/1/2003 12:36:40 AM)

Tell me what you all think of this page I had to make. Do you think it's worth putting on the web?

Sure, it's got a lot of good information. Put it up.




WyldRage -> (5/1/2003 1:33:46 AM)

You should really write the armament of the vehicles, most of them lack that info (that would mean, for several, to also list the variants).




Sniperdoc -> (5/1/2003 2:14:27 AM)

Yeah, I was going to do that too, but at a page and a half of plain text "condensed" Ausführung history PER vehicle, I kinda thought this would be enough for now... :)

I'm going to continue to work on it, and add all that text at some later date, (it being finals week and all) I'm just trying to get an overall view on navigation, layout etc etc...

Thanks for the input though :)




XPara -> (5/1/2003 4:34:06 AM)

Looks good mate.




rbrunsman -> (5/1/2003 5:49:55 AM)

It looks good to me as a work in progress. It's simple to navigate and easy to understand. Armament (as stated before) would be nice to make a priority for addition to each vehicle. Also, perhaps just a quick "what is it?" explanation since most people don't know what "Schwerer" means or what a Bergepanther is used for, etc.?

Does a JagdTiger really weigh 167,000 pounds?! :eek:




brent_2 -> (5/1/2003 6:23:56 AM)

the drawings are beautiful :D

I would add a small description of how the vehicles were used in the detail sections though.




Pawlock -> (5/1/2003 7:05:13 AM)

I though it was very good, the navigation was very consise.




Les_the_Sarge_9_1 -> (5/1/2003 7:41:53 AM)

Looks first rate to me.

Actually while I would applaud adding weapon data, weapon data is about as easy to find as it gets, you have provided a lot of not so often included data actually (my opinion).

On an opinion of it just as a web page, I think you did a sterling job (again my opinion).

You need someone to host it?

Since when does a page being "worth putting on the web" have anything to do with whether or not its actually on the web?

I wish more pages on the web were like yours and had a purpose and value.

If its your first attempt at a website its a very good one. If you've already done others, its still a very good one.

I like it and you even managed a pleasant "look and feel" to go along with the information and ease of manueverability.

It has my official approval :)




Sniperdoc -> (5/1/2003 1:34:51 PM)

As far as hosting is concerned, the pictures belong to Metro Books, the drawings anyways. I was going to write them an email and get permission to use their text and drawings, while I do the web page layout.

Maybe they would sponsor it? As far as hosting... if they are going to sponsor or make my layout an official site, they'll probably host it, but if you're offering to host it as a .com :) :D :) :D I wouldn't mind letting you host it... but of course I need permission from MetroBooks first to use their text and pictures. Keep in mind that there's about a page and a half of text (Word Document) that goes along with each vehicle, which gives a little history and each type of variant.

I was planning on making ALL the nations pretty much the same way, and then have a simple gateway where you pick the nation that you want, and what subsection, ie Tanks, Airplanes, Artillery, Small Arms, Ships, etc etc... Like, the Russian page would be set up just like the German pages except the colors would be Red and white, and it would have a Russian WW2 Flag in the upper left with "Russian Tanks" written in Russian Text.

I also have a friend of mine from class who really liked my page, and he and I have talked of making a site of all the 100's of pictures his grandfather took during WW2.

But I need time... I still haven't had time to sit down and Beta Test ERIC!!!!! ARRRGHHH too much studying!!!!!

Well, I got an A+ on this final project anyways.... :) I got it to validate as Strict XHTML which also counted as extra credit... I was the ONLY one that got it to validate as strict... mUAHAHAH

Ok... enough talk... goodnight :D




Mad Cow -> (5/2/2003 7:40:58 AM)

Make sure there is no plagiarized art, photos or graphics.

For instance, where did you get the tank drawings?

They look very familiar.

Make sure you get permission to use them if they came from another site.

Other than that, it all looks good to me.

EDIT: just say the post you put on the drawings. Good luck getting their permission...




Eric Young -> (5/2/2003 8:29:18 AM)

I was thinking you could take screen shots from EYSA, replace the Art that you need permission for, and we would host it.

What do you think?

Close. http://achtungpanzer.com/pz12.htm According to my metric conversion the Henschel versions weighs over 155000 pounds.




Sniperdoc -> (5/2/2003 11:47:45 AM)

Yeah, about the pictures and getting permission... that's gonna be the hard part...

As far as using EYSA artwork... sure! Sounds good to me. I think that would be pretty cool, especially if there was some way to make some type of quicktime images that you can drag/rotate. That way the users/browsers could have a more complete image of what the tank looked like instead of a static graphic.
