actually , i dont see where it needs to be inproved, i like it how it is, i will check out new designs and give votes, but im not talented enough to design anything better than whats there now

[ActionEra]

I'll try to come up with something....
There is one immediate grammar change that needs to be made though..lol...
"Find an User" should be "Find a User" .... ;)

[ActionEra]

Ok..here's my first attempt. Some thoughts first.

1) I honestly don't see the need for two separate options for "who's online" and "who's in chat". If people are "online" but not in chat, no one really cares. I did, however, include them in my mock up but I don't think they are necessary.

2) Since all of the options presented create basically two dimensions (gender,filtering options), my presentation is from the gender perspective.

3) If needed, I can include the original .psd with separate layers for each component. I can also include any non-standard fonts.

[evie]

Rick...are you needing it to be in an HTML form?

Nope, an image is a valid entry.

[Rnl2ghost]

I like the design that was presented so far.. But I am going to make some changes to it.. wish I knew where I can get raw images to work with...

[stephen81]

what language can it be done in?

am I able to render it with php/js? and it will be useable with the site? I don't think we are using asp or anything here right?

This site is obviously php based.

[etexgirl]

[flowerchylde]

Simplicity :D

[Degener8]

my first rendering, just to get a feel for what I want to do with this idea lol[attachment=0:jp3tp5op]entry-one.gif[/attachment:jp3tp5op]

[Degener8]

ok one i like much better now that I have a idea of what Direction I wanted to go toward[attachment=0:1e6u6xgh]entry-2.gif[/attachment:1e6u6xgh]

[mistressx]

Hey, just an idea...
can you add a feature to search by sexual preference...
that way gay males can search for other gay males, and bi chicks can find other bi chicks? :)

[asseenontv]

I think that option is available via the advanced search Missy.. :D

[ActionEra]

Since Flower liked my idea of a gender-centric point of view, and I liked her idea of the mouse...I made a combination that's fairly simple...

[Degener8]

gotta say i like the mouse ideas nice job of creativity u two

[Degener8]

ok my last one unless some really good inspriraion strikes me, its prolly the best of the ones ive done.[attachment=0:cdt2vs71]entry-3.gif[/attachment:cdt2vs71]

[joeygurl]

A condensed version is cool, not so bright colors they are hard on the eyes. I wish I could design what I picture but honestly i suck at it.. ya'll have done amazing jobs.. maybe some should pull together, mixture of talent and idea's..

[stuff]

i think the way you have it RICK is good.......nice try every one and plz dont get mad...and well i am one to talk cuz i did not even try (i dont know where to go or what to use) but there to simple and kinda not nice looking...but must have took a while to do nice try guys...you guys have brains unlike me!!

[Degener8]

Edited didnt like how it looked lol

Yeah..I liked her simple layout. I'm going to try and come up with some other simple ones if I can liven up some creativity cells.

[flowerchylde]

Simplicity again. Want to keep the general theme and not take away what it's for. This is a Chat site, not a Graphics site. Kept some old and put in a little new :D

http://usera.imagecave.com/shayne/profile-design2.jpg

[mistressx]

I think that option is available via the advanced search Missy.. :D

nope, atleast i couldn't find it. I tried.

[Degener8]

Ok last one just cus I liked the idea[attachment=0:1s7pt6k7]entry5.gif[/attachment:1s7pt6k7]

[E113]

[Degener8]

[joeygurl]

Yeah E diggin those alot. They arn't too busy...colors easy on the eyes

[Degener8]

I think of the ones ive seen and entered, E's are my favs so far just on general style . Keep on making em girl, im liking your style and thought process

[just4fun85]

here is a simple one....nothing new as there is nothing new under the sun...

I did pink and blue...but i can change it to blue and orange as well....there weren't any color restrictions.. :shock:

[Degener8]

Ok This isnt a entry from me per say, Its totally all E's I just added a nicer search box on it, so its another entry for E if it wins. I just gave it a lil addition, cus i liked her ideas so much.

[h0rny_fr34k]

i like asseen's , but i dont see the buttons on the butt , but it looks like a nice design , lol ..........

[stephen81]

Ok I am really busy I might get something done but I'll explain my vision

[ ] == Tabs like we currenly have at the top of the profile page


#######################[ ][ ][ ][ ][ ]#
[ ]#
[ ]#
[ ]#

the Side tabs when moused over grow out like so saying that you are focusing your search on

[......]

[ ]
####



I really don't think the Profile page needs so much a new design as it needs a new back end, lets see dynamic searching, our db isn't so large that we couldn't include a dynamic search box, I'd like to see the tabs be javascript functions over images for faster loading, make use of "mouseover" and "onclick" scrolling menu's and +/- boxes

[evie]

I didnt change that much...

[Degener8]

nice one evie , i love the lil cam icon for broadcasting

[_Wentie_]

It's my first time making such kinda thing :D
So it won't be really good.
But if I have time, I'll try to make a new one :)

Greetings,
MissW

already meetcam search page is beauty. dont need change icons or any colors. just added another things.

[joeygurl]

Looking good ya'll... such talent on here

[CHR15_VTR]

Heres my attempt people ..

[evie]

seximax...I like that idea of "Op's online".

Very nice

[seximax]

seximax...I like that idea of "Op's online".

Very nice


thank you sweety. your page lookin beauty too

[evie]

I kept my same "theme" but moved it around a bit to fit it better.
Also..I really think seximax's idea of seeing the ops online is great so I hope he gets some meetcam bucks for that and we can use it.
So I did add a tab for that.

(thought I should add it without the tab as well in case that idea will not be added.)

[joeygurl]

op's online is a great idea.. wondering if it can be done as your searching for a op' on the server your on or a site wide search that can filter and list each server they are op's for..sounds possible. Kinda thinking outloud.

[evie]

I think if it did a site wide search..that would be good.
Or maybe even have an advanced search for ops. So that if you need one on that server you could find one...say if you need a green op to boot someone from a room. But it would be nice to find ops if someone is having a hard time with a site issue such as not being able to see cams. But in an advanced search you could "Search site" or "Search servers"?
I also feel that it should only do a search for green ops as they are the only ones with any real "power" to help out in a harressing situation where someone may need to be booted from a room.
Personaly I feel green ops should be green on all servers so they can move around and be a help where they are needed. Blue ops can be op'ed per server though. But sense blue ops come and go so often and cant boot meanies from the rooms...I dont think they should be listed in the "search for ops online".

[H1ghguy]

:mrgreen: How about a button that says "Here try Highguy first" lol

[ken742386]

Here is my attempt at this

Hope people like it!

[just4fun85]

i like it.....

[ActionEra]

Looks very familiar..lol..

[h0rny_fr34k]

put a complaint icon on it with a message that says " perm. closed "

[flowerchylde]

2muchtime......i think that's the best one yet!!...well done

[E113]

:arrow:

[evie]

One more try...

I like to keep the idea of doing an "all" search when first opening the profiles page. With putting it into catagories of "women, men and couples" it takes away the "all" search.

Also Im not sure we need the "women, men, couples" search tabs when they are also added in the advanced search?

[E113]

:arrow:

[ActionEra]

2muchtime......i think that's the best one yet!!...well done

yup.. similar to mine but much better..

[evie]

Just playing a bit....
same design with a couple of extras.
I know this one wont qualify because some of the features are not available...but Im just goofing around with a couple of earlier suggestions and ideas from some.

[E113]

If not..it's ok. :D

[2muchtime]

Did they vote yet?

[joeygurl]

no

[Darth_Vibe]

They all look cool, but none of them say, the number of people live on line. 8 people in chat. hope it helps.

[skycanbloved]

i really like all the designs, (wish i was as creative) but i must say that seximax your last post really got my eye,.... the colors and male/female icons really 'pop', really nice job.

[seximax]

[evie]

[seximax]

http://img225.imageshack.us/img225/8710/fatihbx3dn3.png

[seximax]

ok last time i do it. hope people will love it.

[seximax]

[bethy]

congrats on the winner who won and great designs on all who put there designs in all wonderful jobs way to gals and guys

[Icey4u]

:D i dont think much change is needed i like it just the way it is and i also like the fact that it tells you who is online and who is in chat. I like to know who has just logged on to meetcam and not made it to a chat room. :D

[evie]

I dont know about the others..but I'm still waiting to receive bucks for participating in this. I emailed Rick but havnt heard anything.

I dont think any one has recieved bucks for participating yet evie...

[ken742386]

[H1ghguy]
