New hosting for EqEmu tools

**GeorgeS** · #1 09-25-2009, 10:08 AM

I was a bit shocked, but in reality took no offense.

The tools are designed so they work in win7 (I run them on win7-64), but unexpected things can go wrong.
I'll look into the flicker issue - should be an easy fix (mabe).

Rogean wanted the webpage live, and with limited time I had to move it over, but did not make a new page yet. I have looked at the www for templates, and am working on a total re-write. So I do agree on that part. I could use help in that dept.

So, if someone can come up with a eq theme -- along the lines of eqemulator.net, then that would be very helpfull. A template is needed

Thanks for the feedback - good or not so good.

I have been going to Georges page for years and not one time did it ever cross my mind that it was to hard to navigate or find what I was looking for. I'm just grateful that Georges take the time to keep all of his tools updated for the community and not let them become outdated and useless, I guess I would have taken offense to that and maybe loose motivation.

I could say more but I just really want to give Georges a big thank you for the work he does for the community at large.

Thank you for all the hard work GeorgeS. Your tools are amazing!

Every time I need a quick fix for something Navicat does not do effectively (such as items & spells), I turn to your tools. Kudos to you, and this is great news!

Thanks for the kind words!

I've spent the evening updating the site. Take a look - it's pretty different, but cleaner

That looks like it would be pretty clean, but it doesn't seem to be displaying quite properly for Firefox. The name of each box is a bit too far down, so it looks like it is half cut-off, since the font color blends in with the background.

I think the new setup goes better with the banner you made, btw. Also, you can probably just remove the EQEmu banner, or I can make another version of it for that particular page. It would be a quick simple chanege. All I would need to do is remove the border on it now and create a new simple one that matches the color scheme better. I wish that the word Everquest had a G in it, cause then I could easily make matching fonts that say "GeorgeS" and "Tool" to put them right into the banner at the very top. Maybe if I get bored enough, I will see if I can concoct a decent looking G from the letter Q in there lol. I think it could be done, it just might require a bit of extra hand-painting to make it look right

And yeah, thanks for all you do, GeorgeS. I really can't thank you enough lol. I use many of your tools on a daily basis and in many cases they are much more efficient than using any normal GUI or even just the command prompt.

I attempted to fix the firefox and older iexplorer issues. Had to Dl firefox to see what was going on. Anyway, should look more or less the way it was intented. Let me know if the links are not visible - or other issues..

GeorgeS, you are a pillar, man, someone most should look up to for your efforts with EQEmu for your years of dedication. It's great to see your tools have found a home here at the project.

I would make a suggestion to the site admins (Rogean? KLS?) implement a portal download module or something for great tools like these. They are usually fairly organized, look professional (well some do, heh) etc, and offer lots of features like batch up/down, searching, whatevs.

While I personally do not care one way or the other (cuz your page looks fine to me), just offering a suggestion. I have one for EQ2Emulator, but the template is so jacked up (see above disclaimer lol) that I am too embarassed to make it public

Good luck, and thank you again.
