I am doing lil baby bits of slayer I did a fire giant task today!Partially sorted out the XML feeds for the homepage, but another problem just came up displaying all those games on the homepage, 55 extra game thumbnails, coming to over 1mb >.< They're slowing the loading speed a little, so I'ma try batch processing them in photoshop to reduce them to 30x30 then run them through smush.it to make them as small as possible. That'll probs take a while, I'll reduce the file size of the new thumbnails too, photoshop sucks for png, so I'll just have to run all new images through smush.it when I'm adding games in future to keep them small, Yey. |

Lol, It beats my old job, but makes the whole video making less fun. Which is why I'm working on my sites a lot, so I can try make a living from those and upload my videos normally. Slacking like hell the past 2 days XD Can't concentrate properly ![]() Been doing a little bit of work on the play page, tweeking a lot with the layout, can't seem to get it to look how I want, but It'll get there XD Adding a new button to dim the lights (like on long youtube videos), still need to tweek around with it, because Firefox is reloading the game for some reason. Also adding a few things to the page to make it easier for people to share the games on things like twitter, facebook, emails etc. Added the twitter thing to the current play page as a test, should help with growing the site and make it easy for people who want to update what they're doing quickly. Also made a twitter acc for Epicninja (@epicninjagames), I'll just use it to post new games that are added and other basic updates and small multiplayer game events and stuff. =p Gotta make the epicninja vid too >.< missed last weeks and this weeks is already late XD I'll have to slack off the site tomorrow and work on that I think ![]() Edited by sosolid2k, Jun 17 2009, 06:28 AM.

Worked at EMA, it gives students money each week to help them pay their expenses while they're at college (food, transport etc). Basically checking their applications, putting it onto the computer and other stuff. Horribly boring but pay was ok and a few good friends worked there too They never extended my contract because "they heard disturbing things about me" lmfao. I worked good 0.0, my best guess at that would be one time I made a copy of the system we input the data into and edited the code a little so that when you tried to input data an error would appear basically saying you've fucked the computer up, I'm guessing they thought I actually hacked it or something (they actually had it upgraded whilst I was there too lol). Come to think of it they did have me doing non-computer based work a lot towards the end xD But I got the partnership thing with Machinima while I was there so I wasn't that bothered, makings videos beats trying to read peoples terrible handwriting and copying it onto a computer all day. |

Nearly finished the play page I think, most of it's working ok and it's starting to look how I want it to ![]() ![]() Mostly just little tweeks to do with that page now and setting up the 'more games' feeds. Gonna have a few different games lists that will be displayed randomly, rather than the one list of 5 games that's there atm. Once the play page is done I'll probs get working on the browse games page, that more or less just needs the layout edited a little to accommodate the new image sizes and stuff, hopefully shouldn't be too much work. After that a page needs to be made for 'categories', mostly just images that need made for that, since it's just quick links to stuff like "top rate today" etc for each category. Then a bunch of other smaller pages like login/register/privacy/contact/fullscreen mode etc along with tidying everything up then it should be done. Hopefully should be worth it, should be loading quicker, easier to find games and look better. |

Nothing yet XD Gonna be mostly t-shirts, hoodies etc once it's set up. There's a bunch of sites that you can sell stuff through, so I'll be setting one up to help with upgrading the site to dedicated hosting. Probs have a try at illustrator to create some vector designs so they can go on any colour. Maybe try make a few 'characters' for the site if I don't suck at it XD I'll concentrate on that once the site is all coded though. Not even sure if it'll be worth the time, but hopefully it'll help. |

Lol spent all day yesterday working on the new thumbnails for the games, didn't even get through half XD Takes freaking ages lol. Gonna work on the search/games browsing page today then probs do the rest of the thumbnails sometime during the weekend, or maybe tomorrow. Might update the fullscreen page too if I've got time later today. Yey for thumbnails!! (they are png quality, just low quality jpg for imageshack) [removed images] Looks like there's loads more done than not, but there's just over 230 thumbs done, and over 450 games lol, so only just over half of them done.

Rawr, think most of the new design is done now, mainly just need to create a bunch of scripts to run to keep everything updated. Also need to work on some 'characters' for the site, I'm probs gonna replace the logo with a new one (link below) and make a little group of cartoon ninjas for the site, t-shirts and maybe even to put in games in the future if it ever gets to the point where games could be sponsored by the site etc. Started work on this one, not finished yet but it's basically what it'll be like - http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/1176/ninja2.png Then did this one today, most likely gonna use this as the new logo - http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/5944/ninjashout.pngWanna try do like 5 of em if I can, then sort out the store + scripts to update the front page content and related games list and the site should be ready to update to the new design XD |
