First off, I'd like to introduce "Charcoal" - the New Theme you can select to use.
Second, I've gotten the code done for our Weapon rolls, but I've hit some hitches again.
Third, I'm still trying to get some things done for you all to be settled in for a few months. I don't think I've told everyone yet, but I'm leaving for Basic Training for the US Air Force February 10, 2015, so I'm attempting to give Elletnah™ The JabberJay and the rest of the staff team a head start with things I can do now that will work for later. What you can do for me to help with this is tell me what you think is missing, or things I've utterly skipped over (by accident or otherwise) that you've noticed that need fixed.
My current projects:

Charcoal is exactly as it sounds, grays, blacks, and whites. The main color is a light charcoal gray in the background with black accents and white backgrounds to the boards.
The top banner isn't finished, but the image is a sketch that was supposed to be a crow. The crow fitted the image of the Jabberjay I had and since it's gray scaled it actually turned out quite well to represent a Jabberjay. Each 'box' in the gridded image are hover-able with information under them (which is the part that's unfinished).
I've adjusted some CSS of the second background so you can see more of the original background. Along with taking out the legend areas since I plan to take each of them out so we can have more room for details without lengthening our forum by several inches. You get bored of so much scrolling and lose interest if it's to large looking. It's all in the perception of how much detail you're being given after all.
If there's anything you'd like to suggest, I'm all ears. This Theme has been made to be the default after the Games for JJ, so let's hear it.
Second, I've gotten the code done for our Weapon rolls, but I've hit some hitches again.
The script of the code is done. Meaning, in my HTML doc that holds the script, I can hit the button and it rolls the dice and tells me what I've hit. I don't have all the dice rolls done, but once I get the Large weapons to work I can make the smaller weapons work since I only have to take the script and edit to a smaller script and adjust the type of attacks for the smaller weapons compared to the large ones. I have all of the information to do this already stored and ready to go for when I get the button to work.
My hitch comes with actually making a UBBC button to click like you do the dice up top. I'm not understanding how to make my dice roll an actual button in the tray to make it 'roll' for you. You'll still have to roll twice for the die (One for damage, the other for if you hit/miss), but everything else is done for you when it comes to rolling. It gives generic 'hit types' for you and all you have to do it add in your extra damage you do if you trained that in the TC.
Third, I'm still trying to get some things done for you all to be settled in for a few months. I don't think I've told everyone yet, but I'm leaving for Basic Training for the US Air Force February 10, 2015, so I'm attempting to give Elletnah™ The JabberJay and the rest of the staff team a head start with things I can do now that will work for later. What you can do for me to help with this is tell me what you think is missing, or things I've utterly skipped over (by accident or otherwise) that you've noticed that need fixed.
My current projects:
- Write some welcome message for the first box of the welcome table. (I suck at welcome messages)
- Get a poll up to vote for the first two popular tributes to fill in the second box of the welcome table.
- Do the math for the Sponsor Entries so you can gamble your capitol coins away on tributes.
- Code said Sponsor Entries page so you can truly lose all you capitol coins when you bet.
- Modify the Capitol Bank a bit [Maybe].
- Possibly code a new mini-profile area for this theme.
- Add custom images to this theme.
- Re-order the main pages boards (the first category seems a bit strange how it's ordered).
- Code a new board layout for this theme.
- Code a new thread layout for this theme (if I can figure it out without breaking everything).
- Write the detailed version of the Combat Rules for the Arena.
- Write the detailed version of the Thirst Rules for the Arena.
- Write the detailed version of the Hunger Rules for the Arena.
- Make sure there's a reminder for a new vote for an Electee or two to happen after the Games. (Don't worry, you can still keep Raeoki if you want).
