Title: PGC, Now in CSS!
Post by: Jonnyboy117 on June 14, 2006, 07:48:03 PM
Brendan (Gahiggidy) has been working on this project for months, and now it's finally live for all to enjoy.  What is it, you ask?  It's the CSS version of PGC, of course!  It looks almost the same as before, but the way the pages are coded and displayed is quite different.  This will help to save us bandwidth and may speed up page loading.  More importantly, it makes the site layout FAR more flexible, which is going to help tremendously as we redesign the site this summer.

If you notice any bugs or anything that looks completely wrong (other than some very minor visual differences), please send a full report to Brendan.

By the way, the forums are not affected by this change.

Looking good, looking good.  I noticed the change mostly in the Search box.  The word "Go" was off, and it made me check here to see if there were any changes.  I went back and noticed some other stuff happening too.  Right now, the ads aren't working.  Not that I'm complaining, just informing.

EDIT: Thursday morning everything went back to normal working land.  The red numbers of the time posted are a bit hot, but that's really my one issue.  Good job on the conversion.

The main page does seem to load quicker, which is pretty welcome 'cause PGC is my homepage.

Fabulous load times.  FABULOUS.

Wait you mean PGC didn't use this before? WHO MADE THIS SITE ORIGINALLY!

The site was quite old.  I obviously didn't make it, but I don't fault whoever did for not using CSS yet.

...plus, unlike HTML, CSS doesn't rhyme with 'swell'.
