FC Forums

I'm doing a web design project for a competition, but I can't think of an idea I'd be interested in, well, making a website for.

To this end, I'm asking if anyone has any ideas. Nothing ridiculous, please, and nothing Pony related.

Can you be more specific please ? Hat are you searching for and what is your role in it ?

I am asking if anyone has an idea for a website they'd like designed. I'm in a web development course right now, and we have to submit a pure-HTML/CSS site for a co-curricular competition.

Make a website for your bird-alien-faction thing from the old forums.

What about JQuery scripts? Can you use any of them?

We haven't learned Javascript yet fr0st, in fact for whatever reason our teacher's decided that we'll be learning PHP while simultaneously working on our submissions.

And Jedi, it's something I considered, but I don't deem my present skills sufficient to do my faction justice.

There's not a whole lot of interesting stuff you can do without at least some javascript, and PHP is entirely server-side, so by itself it's only going to be good for making forms. But this site has a lot of good material and samples, many of which are javascript-free.

Can you make a forum in HTML-5?

Also, you could try to make something of a webadventure/puzzle game.

Games cannot be made in HTML, not without Javascript. Neither can forums, to my knowledge. Even if they were I'd much rather rely on more efficient software like PHPbb (what this forum is running on) than creating my own DIY solution.

Really, a topic is all I need at this point, please. I was supposed to have the theme selected and the mockup finished by the end of class today D:

Informative page on various methods of access to space, their pros and cons, as well as a analysis of what it would take to make them.

What kind of user interaction is in HTML? Also, I thought HTML 5 added capabilities for games.

HTML5 is just a markup language for laying out web pages. There are a few new objects in the markup which interface natively with the browser. The big additions are media playback, some more data storage capabilities, and the canvas. The canvas allows you to do direct 2D drawing, which can be interfaced with javascript or WebGL. None of it works on its own, however.

@Tiel
Just make a pretty blog template or something. Minimal server interaction. You'd be amazed how easy it is to make something look classy just by using the right font and color scheme. Ooh, and rounded edges and those semi-transparencies in CSS3. I'm sure there are generators online which will spit out the style code for you.

Talk about false advertising.

Ain't nothing wrong with CSS generators. Stylesheets are stupid and obtuse and behave differently on every browser and no professional is doing it by hand anyway, so don't make life more difficult for yourself.

I dunno, I derive some sort of sick pleasure coding stylesheets by hand in dreamweaver. I imagine having a generator do it would just feel somewhat...wrong.

YOU'RE USING DREAMWEAVER YOU CHEATER! NOTEPAD+FTP OR GTFO!
