the website

Hey everyone,
the website is almost ready to go, i just need a few things...

1. The sponsors.. who ever is in control of the sponsors could they please let me know who they are so I can add their logos (also remi said something about one sponsor wanting to put a quiz on the site?)

2. A handful of the SWFs people gave me have some problems when they load in they are as follows (you will be able to see what I mean if you go to the site, link is at bottom)

  • Helen Z - Smoking Clock - No background colour
  • Laura - Dream Escape - doesnt load properly
  • Nat - Eye - No background colour
  • Remi - Clock - no background colour
  • Shane - Outbreak - external swfs wont load in when the main swf is loaded into the site (i think)
  • Twinsen - Argument - doesnt play properly + no background colour
  • Bubble Hour - Sort of works... some areas wont click to add bubbles
  • Gill - quiz game - doesnt play properly

Some do still look ok but others will have to be excluded if we cant resolve the problems. You can either replace it with something else or fix it.
All images and videos are fine.

3. I need some higher res images for the slide show - 72dpi, roughly 1000px x 400px. If you want an image in the slide show just email it to me, or give it to me on friday 13th. Only 1 per person.

4. Everyone needs to go to the site (link below) and make sure their work and info is all correct (no spelling mistakes etc), and check that their work loads (some links may be misspelt). And also let me know if you find any bugs.

4. If anyone wants to add their major project to the website, same specs as before, and include a 300x300px thumbnail. Please give it to me by friday 13th.

I wont accept anything after friday the 13th, since I want the site to go live no later than monday 16th, which is 4 days before the exhibition!


I will be at uni on friday 13th from 1 - 3 in the studio


link to the test website:
WWW.HANDMADEEXHIBITION.COM/DEVELOP

note: all the fonts will be changed to the handwritten font used on the dvd

I hope that is all!

Thanks,
Ben.
