We all knew Central wasnt going to last much longer. One of the last pieces of news posted (about a year ago) mentioned "keeping the site around a little longer". After the forums hack I figgured that was it. Maybe goodbye for Central? Who knows. If so, I bid a big farewell to what once was the "mutha" of mcm2 sites there ever was.

mcmfactory sucks, not the sites fault, its just as simple as the general idiot there is nothing more then a idiot. It's sad that people ruin things just for a 2 second erection.

Hmmm it does gives me the idea its a site for idiots...

idiots who upload a photo, idiots who upload a skin 100% from ripped parts, idiots who take complete skins and say they made it, idiots who take bike models and say they made it (happend to me, http://www.mcmfactory.com/display.php?cat=models&id=5, btw thnx Laurie!) and theres much more bull*#*#* going on there... the site is great but the idiots need to go! lol

It doesnt look to bad but I expect more from The_Messiah aka TK_Disturbed...if you know his work, you'll agree whit me...

1. They need a new layout
2. They need some changes in the menu
3. They deffinitly need some admins to BAN those damn idiots

(btw, I would be able to help whit this all hehe...)

I think what may have to happen here is there may have to have teams support there tracks, Like what VMX and VRT are doing, I think we will all have to spread the wealth from now on if Factory closes. you can get pretty good web space and enough bandwidth for about $90 a year, and maybe have the team pitch in a few bucs here and there, I was think about making a tracks LINKAGE page to all the different teams web site to download?  Post your thoughts!

Ive been working on a layout the last few hours... it's simple but still looks good I think...

Click to see fullsize image.

The orange squares will turn green if clicked, or 50% transparent on hovering over it whit the mouse...

Mebbe the admin (was it nowak?) of mcmfactory wants to use this... Im not done yet tho but it is the biggest part...  ;D
Title: Re: Is the MCM world falling away?
Post by: VMX_GravityX2 on August 20, 2004, 11:56:42 PM
E-mail Nowak cR. He might use yours.
Hopefully MCM Factory doesn't go down for good. It's the only decent/good website left.
Title: Re: Is the MCM world falling away?
Post by: cR on August 21, 2004, 12:01:54 AM
Ok I will... is wacker@dustinnowak.com the right email adress?

BTW, if whe REALLY want to keep the site, whe should make a list of admins to keep the place clear...cause i know nowak is going crazy about those "idiots" (read above), so did RFJ_His_Son, from www.zoneracing.com and the older link i can't remember lol

So who do you recon?

Post by: Bunny on August 22, 2004, 09:37:15 AM
no, I wonder though if anyone could convince Kam into handing over the responsibilities of that site to someone else who doesn't want to see mcm2 fade away.

Just a though.
Title: Re: Is the MCM world falling away?
Post by: VMX_SKYmx99 on August 22, 2004, 12:42:14 PM
Sounds like a good thought to me man.  :)
Title: Re: Is the MCM world falling away?
Post by: TNT_wfo on August 22, 2004, 02:57:40 PM
As i recall, tons of people asked that on theyre forums. Kam or no one took up any offers.
Title: Re: Is the MCM world falling away?
Post by: Bunny on August 22, 2004, 03:04:59 PM
hmm...I remember when central was working, MauiCool said he had talked to Kam on the phone before.  So, maybe he still knows his number, and we could get him to call him up and ask him about it.

Hey, it might be a long shot, but it could work :)

Post by: cR on August 22, 2004, 06:46:47 PM
All the space and bandwitch will cost ALOT of cash tho.. so how to deal that... don't think anyone would like that...maybe like the factory whit donations or sumthing...

CR
Looks Good
If you are offering that to me? Well Thanks
But I dont want to do any changes at this time.But I am interested in it ;)
Do You Know php?
What I would really like to do at this time is modify My uploader, and I have done all the mods to it that I know and it works great but a little confusing to the first time uploader.
This Script Is an album script so i added in the uploader for tracks.
It has two uploaders on one screen (upload track.zip/.rar/.env First)(Then track pic and comments) And if click the track pic and comments upload button before the track.zip is uploaded then all that is uploaded is pic and comment , would like it to be one uploader button to do all at one time.

Thanks

This would have been so much easier if you told me in pseudo language. Here is an example of how you might say it to me in pseudo language.

Fields:

drop down box for selecting category
file field
message field.

url to file field.

upload button.

Confirmation of upload message.

That is really short, but im pretty sure you get the idea. For the url to file field, i will just make it so they get the url to the file after it is uploaded as i will be using a function to remove the white spaces in the filename, otherwise ill have to do it with javascript and i dont know that very well. Ill see what i can do for you. It's not going to be easy as i didn't write the script.
