Just took a look at the database (a bit late I know) and I can honestly say-> Great Work iwulff
some questions though. Why didn't you optimize it for 1024x768 when most people have that res?
Also, do you still need beeps and thing...I got about 1.5 MB (zipped) of beeps and voices, most of them without background noise.
And might I offer a suggestion? Put it the race's symbol in their description (for the feds, klingons, roms, cards and dom)

I am thinking of something better, but you all will see it when that part is finished.  Mail the sounds to iwulff_botf2@yahoo.com, and about the resolution, i will optimize certain areas, so that it will look good/normal on a 1024/768 resolution. Anyway thanks for the suggestions and the sounds.

Hey there iwulff, i'm not sure if I told you this on MSN, but the map section looks really cool now!
One thing though, the old problem with the pictures staying on screen when you click a different section is back!
It is happening with all five of the races as well. When I click the races, then choose a different screen, the pictures stay up, (But stop changing) and the new screen appears behind the pics.
It has happened every time I have loaded the database up. I've tried changing the options, and tried restarting my computer, but it has no effect.
Sorry about this bad news, but it seems there is a gremlin on the loose in the database.

The deed is done.
If this file controls the database, that is likely where the fault is. Remember you sent up that update to the Cardassians?

Okay, so the entire thing could be a tad faster, but I always thought the speed problem was just my computer!  I am used to things being slow after all!
The races' slide is the slide that performs the slowest, that is why I singled it out. I'm not saying the entire database should be tweaked, but nana is right - LCARS would be fast (Although it is the database of the entire Federation - sorta like the internet today; the repository of Human/Federation knowledge - so would it really be that fast?)
Anyway, first things first. Sort out bugs and glitches, then update it as needed. Cosmetic things like the speed shouldn't be sorted out until the database is done, else we won't know what the problems with speed will truly be.
I just want what is best for the database, that's all.  (Coz I want it and BOTF2 so much!)

much better now.
think it's time to fill it up with content? course, it's a lot of work so if you need some help writing things just say (although I'm a bit short on time these days)
speed and smoothnes also works quite well. Maybe we'll see if more modifications are needed when everything is there, but loking pretty good now.

Still have to create a timeline, that one is "easy" to fill with content, same goes with species.. But ... now it comes... the map will prove to be extremely challenging to work the way i want it...
But really will work on a timeline concept, and you will see it when it's finished. I will make a paus for the next fews days on the map section, need some time gone from that one...

Well i haven't done much with the database the past few days. But i have now created a slidebar for certain text pieces on the site, and have begun work on the history/timeline section. I will give you guys a update when i finished the main part of the history section.
