Title: New Weather Blues Lay-out.......
Post by: avoorpool on December 27, 2012, 12:37:48 PM

Due to an increase in webpages, I decided during the cold and snowy Christmas days to replace the 'Menu-Bars' in Weather Blues for a (more spacious) Frame-View......

Check it out at http://www.altonaweather.ca

Hi Joe,

Thanks for your encouraging comments!!
My 'learning curve' since May has evolved a bit, and when finally ideas can be realized in an actual (new) webpage it's a good thing.  :D

Hopefully 'more' to come...  :)

Cheers,

Arthur

Hi Joe,

Forgot to mention a Healthy & Happy New Year to you as well, but you might have seen my 'World-Wide' message on my main index page  :))
My stats show Aurora, is a good 'follower'...! Thanks.

BTW, I just finished some enhancements to my 'Site Map' page. Thought it was a bit 'naked' with just text, so I introduced some (subject related) .png icons....  ;D

Keep checking..!!??

Cheers,

Arthur

Hi Arthur,

Yes, I saw your season's greetings for Christmas and now for New Year's!  ;)

You also have a habit of taking "naked"  :o pages and turning them into something really interesting!  ^-^

Always checking..!!??

Cheers,
Joe

Continueing with the new lay-out, I decided to give it another change..... 8)

Some of my pages contain many 'sub-pages' like [Info Pages] and [Global Weather], so the number of buttons in 1 frame appeared to be too much...
Cut it in half and now have a 3 frame standard Weather Blues lay-out which divides all page-buttons into a:  'Main' frame, 'sub' frame and 'sub-sub' frame.
Hopefully it makes sense, otherwise have a look at http://www.altonaweather.ca   :)

Cheers,

Arthur

That's a very nice and well polished site. I also love that translucent over a picture style of page.

Hi,

Thanks for your comments.
One thing you have to explain to me......
What do you mean by "love that translucent over a picture style of page"....  ;)

Cheers,

Arthur

He means that while you are scrolling down your page he or she could still see the picture background
at the same time viewing your information. ;)

Isn't that a 'standard' feature of Weather Blues (the trasnparent frame with all the information??

I haven't changed anything  :))

Arthur

Perhaps, but I haven't checked out most of the templates since they're run off Cumulus (Windows) while I use pywws (linux). I still like that effect.

Hi Jl,

Things could change for pywws... a couple of pywws member again
and I'll do an other template for it!! Maybe other templates adaptation!
