Going, will be back again...

Not much has been accomplished with the site. I haven't been all that busy but I have been doing a lot more work for other people and for the camp video which I've been a part of, which I'll post on the site when it's done. Not a lot has happened with BOL since my last post but an IP for the server is in the works. This has all been more then I wanted to deal with and I'm considering just buying a server and running it myself (which I would if I had any money :P ). Anyway, as far as the website goes, I tried to implement some basic things that I made in fireworks but it doesn't seem to have worked. When loading there is a quick flash of where it would be and then it goes back to the boring look of before. I'll need more time and possibly mroe help from videoguy to figure out why that is. On another note, after looking at the CSS I figured out some things but it will take about 2 hours I'm guessing to fully understand it all. It is very poorly documented (like not at all) which makes it difficult to figure out what defines what. So far I can change the color of the links and some text, but I'm still looking for the background color. I don't yet have the time to document that with camp coming up but I hope to make progress on it soon after camp. The homepage still hasn't changed, as you might have noticed. I'm not sure how exactly to integrate the page there with the page here but I'm deciding that I can't use frames and that I'm going to need some help as I lack all motivation to work on it. Feel free to leave comments and such, feedback is always nice.

For page integration stuff, shoot me an email. There are a couple of ways to do it.

As for frames... While at first, I thought it wouldn't be possible considering what you want the final thing to be, I discovered something the other day. You can set frames to take up a PERCENTAGE of the screen, instead of a set number of pixels. And you'll never guess where I found that out. ;)

For the CSS stuff, check out the MoveableType website. There's some pretty complete documentation lurking around there.

Also, I'm not even getting a flash of your fireworks stuff when I go to the main page. I'll probably have to take a look at your code if you can't get it figured out.
