Title: Desktop CP
Post by: jpenguin on December 29, 2007, 03:05:49 pm
If I get the time/money I will build a cab for this to go in.  Anyway, this is a wood CP, and although I want an athentic look.  Function is more important to me.  I don't think of this as a 'frankenpanel', but I have been told that my design has a lot of buttons.  My site allows comments and this function is to be used, post what you really think about it.  Click Here, then click on BYOAC (http://jpenguin.110mb.com/)

PS-- When you click on an image or a link in my blog, you get mre info about it.

PLEASE COMMENT

The control panel looks nice.  Do you have any larger or higher res pictures?

My camera is ~5mp, I do crrop some because I have dial-up. Your cliking on the picts, right?  Some of the pics did oonly upload thumbnail.  Eventually I''ll upload to google.  If you want the CPO image, I do have theOtigonal xfc (GIMP format) it has seperate layers for the controls, logo, characters & logo...

If you want others to look at your build, you'd be better off logging the info here instead of pointing to your blog.

Is there some reason people don't like blogs?

I dont want to put any extra load on the BYOAC servers.  I like all the feature I have, maintaining my o wn blog

Nah man, its not that.  Lots of us on here maintain blogs.  Trust me though, the additional load you would add to the BYOAC server is minimal.

The reason I asked you for higher res pictures is because you asked for comments and when I followed the link to your blog, many of the pictures are very tiny thumbnails (even when clicking them to enlarge).

The control panel looks pretty good from what I can tell from the small pictures.

I forgot to post that I updated the site, on the pages with smmall pics; there is now a magnifiy icon under them, tell me if I missed any.

When your in the BYOAC TAB, click on a headin(Construction) then click on an image.  If it is a text pace (the ones with small images on the side, there should now be a magnify icon underneath)  cliick the magnify icon and you should get a full size pict
