I tried to send you a PM, but:

General Error
 
Ran into problems sending Mail. Response: 504 : Helo command rejected: need fully-qualified hostname

DEBUG MODE

Line : 153
File : smtp.php

Here is the message:

Before making it public, I need your approbation:

http://gzdoom.doomwadstation.com/

This is intented to be THE depot for Zdoom & GZDoom wads.
As far as I use officially your name "Graf", it's obvious that you could eventually refuse, which would make me deeply disappointed, but...
[Edit] Name deleted [/Edit]

I ask you also the authorization to use these pictures, modified by me:

Thank you for your work, which is... which is...
I don't have words to thank you!!!

ok, I already deleted the mention of your name

It will be "GZDoom Wads" (ala GZW)

Now, I have to ask to the DRD Team the authorization for the pictures

You'd have to ask Paul, I think...he made the original logo.

I done it by PM, and I asked him to answer here, if possible

Something is screwed up with PMs, so I'll just answer here.

Sure.

no, all is fine for me: I received your pm, but I told upper the bug encountered with Graf

Thank you for the authorization!
My site will be named "GZDoom Wads (aka GZW)"
The banners will be the ones authorized.

The link given upper is functionnal, even if there is only an index, and will be the one used for this site.

Stay tune!

A suggestion-maybe avoid using red and brown stuff, because it doesn't entirely fit within the logo. Maybe use more blue stuff?

I've chosen a lot of blues for this forum because it's a slap in the face of the Doom pallette, which doesn't allow such blues and cyans-to show that Gzdoom does like them. In a sort of a way ...

Why not do just have the GZW logo on the top, or even under a gradiented blue bar. Then you could make the text blue and the hyperlinks the same shade of blue, but just bolded or Underlined (Or both). The stuff on the bottom is fine. But theres something that bothers me with the Z in the GZW logo . . . it seems as if it wasnt finished, or was just paintbrushed in and not touched up, otherwise the logo looks fine

The "Z" is designed like was designed the "R" of

The picture on the right was made by Zeg-Vok (do have a look on his message below)

It seems unfinished?
That's fine, because Zdoom is unfinished!!!

About the blue, that's a great idea.
Let me try it...

Thank you a lot for your ideas and your help!!!

The unfinished thing wasnt at all an insult of any kind

Jive · Post by **Jive** » Sun Jul 09, 2006 17:17

Oh yes buddy, I know!!
Merci

I changed a little bit the "Z" : it's now blured, but I won't change its color, because I desire an unity between DRD and GZW.
But... Maybe I'm wrong?

Zeg-Vok wrote:I had a bit of spare time on my hands, and realized that the description of what I saw "Wrong" with the Z wasnt anywere near literate enough, so I decided to just quickly redo the color over the textand the black outloines in the text aswell (Although the black outlines came out a bit strong). Im not trying to insult or stick my nose were it doesnt belong, nor am I saying that Im better in any way, but . . . I also wanted to see if I could figure out how Paul did those colors on the letters

P.S. Im not too sure if the 1st one went through, or even if this one made it

So, here is my answer:

Code: Select all

Don't be afraid anymore when you share your work or your ideas, as long as you stay the one you are: a friend, trying to be of some help.

And now, back to the forum, where I'll answer you, because I need to compare on this forum, with its special colors.

But I failed to send it...

I have edited the message upper, to compare the 3 pictures, but I still prefer mine.
Anyway, thank you!
And now, I think that it will be better to continue by email, because this forum is not the place to talk about my futur site, I guess, hey?

Paul, are you more pleased with my page, now?

A friend of mine answered me that the simplicity is the result of a lot of work and the resolution of the complexity...

Awesome. Great colour choices

Keep working on it friend.

You can close this thread, now!

Thank you for having allowed to talk about something else than GZDoom !!!
