New Styles, Resources System

Some of you may have noticed already, and you're probably noticing now: several parts of the website have had a major style upgrade. This includes the front page news feed, the blogs page, and the resource gallery.

Resource gallery? What you say?

I have put together a Drupal-based resource gallery, and it's mighty fine if I do say so myself. Say what you will about Drupal not being designed with forums in mind; this kind of "I want this specific data type to be arranged in this way kkthxbai" thing is exactly what Drupal is good at.

So far, I have uploaded TheInquisitor's RMXP tilesets and RM2k3 monsters, as well as Mea's RMXP animations. I will be uploading more resources from our legacy system as I find the time.

From now on, I would like to see the lot of you making fancy new resources and uploading them (except recent Immigrants, who cannot do so until they are promoted to Townie).

I am quite impressed by the addition of the new resource gallery. You have once again, outdone your insane-web-programming-self.

I like the new look of the Front-page and Blog, but whenever I switch back to the default theme, (The blue one) I'm unable to see the fancy header backgrounds on the header text you had put on there. The header backgrounds really look nice when you can see them using the "Lite theme" however.

I also get a funny little error message when accessing the background music section. Nothing is really impacted as the page can be accessed and the resource can be downloaded and all, but I'm not sure if this is something really being looking into.

Error Message: (I'm using google chrome if it helps any. Not sure if it has anything to do with this code language however.)

warning: call_user_func() [function.call-user-func]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback in /home/rpgjpal/public_html/sites/all/modules/audiofield/audiofield.module on line 250.

You can bet yourself I will be uploading some nifty resources to fill up that gallery in due time. I don't have a resource I have created myself yet, so I cannot tell if uploading works correctly or not.

Job well done.

I'm aware of the error message in the audio section and am planning to fix it. Thanks though.

The error in the audio section is fixed.

I have now transferred all of the graphics from the old system that I intend to bring over. Unattributed resources are excluded from that group, and since the only attributed resources were from Inq/Maxy, and some by Mea or Tau, those are the only things that got uploaded. If there are any other good quality resources that people want in the new system, I suggest you go to the old system, pick them out, and upload them yourself. The uploading permission should be available to Townies (and Traveling Merchants). Please include WHO drew it and WHEN, and if I see it (you can tell me here) I will update the internal information accordingly.

Please do this for sound resources as well, since none of them were attributed. To make up for this, I have uploaded 18 new background musics and 2 music effects. I once wrote all of these pieces, back in the day (except the ones that are marked as arrangements, and on some, inspirations are credited)

I will make a new solution for uploading games soon. Once that's up I will upload attributed games from the old system as well.
