Require assistance with design update


Recommended Posts

HTML (skilled) - Pff I can make HTML do back flips if I really want to :rofl:

XHTML Validation - All my sites are XHTML Transitional Valid :)

Javascripting - I can get around no problems with java

PHP (some knowledge) - PHP I'm not the BEST at, but I do know quite a bit (and it does say "some knowledge")

Graphics - I am good at graphics.. or so I like to think, but define good and then I can say yay or nay to that :p

There's only one problem : / the time limit. March is mostly school, and then april is mostly holidays.

But *shrug* if NW needs help I'm always willing to give a hand :]

HTML: Skilled

XHTML Validation: Skilled in Transitional validation.

Javascripting: General understanding. I can modify it but I can't write it from scratch. :/

PHP: I code almost everything in PHP. I have a PHP & MYSQL CMS in the works (almost done too).

Graphics: Skilled in Photoshop.

Available from 10-12PM Eastern Monday - Friday. After 7PM Saturdays and all day Sundays. I'd prefer working on Sundays since I have them free and nothing to do on them.

As for the monetary reward: I can honestly say that getting anything in return would be a bonus, but not necessary. Adding my work on the Neowin layout to my portfolio would be enough. :D

Check my site for examples of my work.

From what I remember they need someone in PHP the most. From reading here I see a few that say they are awesome in PHP, I'd recommend for them to apply.

It is hard though to find someone good in coding (in a multitude of languages) and creative. There is only 24 hours in a day to learn languages and/or graphic programs and the fact that at a certain age you will start forgetting things.

#EDIT: And im experienced in theming/customising IPB ;)

happy?: P

We need someone who will be able to help code the new side-menu system. I want to be able to hide specific menu items and have the site remember which menu items are opened and closed. The options need to go in a pop-up assistant for the updated My Neowin menu (and portal links).

I recently did something like this for the Intranet site for my company. Even wrote a cool sorta fadey slide-in/out animation for it (cross browser, of course). Also did some draggable popup-windows (loads separate HTML in an iframe) for a couple of our side-bar widgets (our weather widget is the best I've ever seen, on any site). It all looks very smooth thanks to the animation class I wrote. The site also uses several forms of "AJAX", including a JS class I wrote that does automatic updates through HTML tag to XML tag bindings, some updates from CSV files, and a few direct innerHTML updates. I also recently wrote an app that uses things like drag-and-drop and behind the scenes AJAX updates to the server. I'm a huge fan of client side updates and hitting the server as little as possible, and I think my work is very good evidence of this.

As far as skillsets go, I like to think I'm pretty decent at JavaScript, and have decent HTML and graphics skills. My server-side experience is in JSPs and servlets, although I did write a small PHP site a few years back.

Not sure all of what you're needing help with, but if it's just a side-bar menu system, I could probably help you out with that.

I can give you 2 people to help, one Graphics guy (CSS, XHTML, Graphics creation such as... www.thetechaven.com, thetechaven.com/nalbum/keine_lust/) and then the coder for that site, (PHP, Javascript, AJAX, MYSQL).

I myself would enjoy to help a large growing community.

Please email (dpeters @ thetechaven . com) if you are interested.

Thankyou.

Hey,

HTML - Know very well.

CSS - Also, very fluent.

XHTML Validating - Sorry not much experience or knowledge here.

PHP - Pretty broad knowledge.

Graphic Design - Been using photoshop for almost two years.

IPB Skinning - Made more IPB skins than had hot dinners :)

If you would like, contact me on msn - dan[at]danielellis.net

I know both HTML and XHTML really well; every site and page I code (even my 404 error pages!) are always validated. Same story with my CSS, with no errors. I know a hell of a lot of PHP too, and I'm pretty good with XML. I have an ok knowledge of Javascript too. :)

I've been using, modding and skinning IPB since version 1.2, and have always tried to get these 100% valid too :)

I've also been using Photoshop since version 5, and I pretty much know it inside out ;)

I spend over 8 hours a day online, usually more, and I would love to help Neowin wherever possible (Y)

    • Personally, I think these things are way over rated and way over priced, even at this price. I recently had Frontier Fiber installed with 2 of these devices and although they worked, I switched back to my own router and AP setup and get way better consistency on wireless speed than with Eeros. Wired speed seems to be more consistent also. Will be returning Eeros soon. I had told Frontier I didn't want them to begin with.
    • Yes, exactly what I have been thinking. Don't make the context menu simpler, make it smarter to learn what I actually use. And then, give me the ability to pin settings that I rarely use but need forget where they are.

    • Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June game showcase schedule is packed, and with the Sony event already behind us, it's time for the next major presentation to come in swinging. Later today, Geoff Keighley will be bringing the 2026 edition of Summer Game Fest live from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the Summer Game Fest showcase livestream will be kicking off at 2 PM PT | 5 PM ET | 10 PM BST later today, June 5. The jam-packed show is slated to run for about two hours, with platforms like YouTube (4K at 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, or X being available for catching it. Like in previous years, separate streams featuring American Sign Language and Descriptive Audio are available on YouTube as well. Keighley has only dropped a few teasers about what gaming fans can expect to see at the show. This includes a new look at Star Wars Zero Company from EA, a major announcement from Guild Wars developer ArenaNet, more Clutch gameplay, and some sort of Sega presence. As for fan expectations, there is hype building about a Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 reveal here, and we might see new details about announced games like Alien Isolation 2 as well. If you want even more games, keep in mind that right after the main kickoff event, the Day of the Devs showcase will begin its own festivities at 4 pm PT | 7 pm ET. This is focused entirely on upcoming indie games. Following this, the next major games showcase is slated to happen on June 7. Here, Microsoft is bringing the big guns with its Xbox Games Showcase and Gears of War E-Day Direct. Check out the full calendar for all of the June events over here.
