CONTEST: design loyce.club home page

[LoyceV]

I've created loads of useful data on Bitcointalk, and there are many more topics too. I host most of my data on loyce.club, which was never meant to be a landing page when someone needs my data.
However, I've been asked before to add an index there, and it would be nice to have a better page design.

See loyce.club for the current design.

So here it goes: Is there someone willing to create something nice with CSS and other magic? It should still be easy to (manually) add new links to other data in the future, and I prefer no complicated stuff with scripting or databases and stuff, but just something to make it look a bit better!

I'm hoping to make this a community thing: it could be community voted if there are more entries, or it could be just anything. There's not really a budget for designs, if you do this you do it for the community, and for eternal fame while it lasts

Obviously, this topic was a rush-job too, and I like to use it to make the point that I'm absolutely not into making good-looking designs

Any other specific requirements? Like color preferences, theme or you want something that just looks good and serves the purpose of the site? I haven't done HTML/CSS in a while but wouldn't mind spending a couple of hours over the weekend. - I'm in

Are you actually uploading “files” to your computer/server every week?

If so, this may be a good time to move to a more efficient way of handling your data.

Regardless, you should look at bootstrap, which can help you with CSS on your site with minimal coding.

Not really.

I'm really not into designing things, so I have no idea. But "serving the purpose" sounds about right.

Thanks

Yes.

Getting a VPS would largely improve things for someone who doesn't know a thing about databases.

I'll wait to see if someone comes up with something much better than I could ever create before attempting anything by myself

[EliteCrash]

Just made a quick landing page for you, nothing much but still better than nothing.

Hope you like it.

Made a simple responsive layout for the website. Thanks to bootstrap 4, fontAwesome, jquery. Made a very simple logo btw

Here's how it looks

I haven't forgotten about this, but because of the sudden disappearance of my webhost I have to fix that first.

I could give 0.01BTC more for this project if you'll display our logo on it as a sponsor?

[LoyceV]

if you'll display our logo on it as a sponsor?

I wouldn't be against this, but it has to fit in the design somehow.
I've thought about making a weekly auction to advertise on my Trust list viewer: an advertisement could be at the bottom of all pages for week 56 for instance (so under http://loyce.club/trust/2020-02-08_Sat_07.44h/350580.html and 10,000+ other pages). The advertisement would remain in place for as long as I can keep all older versions. But that would also look far more desperate for advertising than I really am

can we still design it?

Yes. I haven't picked a design yet. Lack of time is getting to me this year so far.

How about this type of ad, advertisement at the top of the page: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4412712.0
I don't think of it as desperate, you have put a lot of effort in all that seems reasonable to me.
I'll be the first to but few spots 


Don't worry ill ask my dev to make a new design that will be coherent with your website designs.

[examplens]

Here some idea what it might look like https://landofcrypto.com/Loyce.Club/ also check "TEST table" menu or: https://landofcrypto.com/Loyce.Club/page1.html
you will need to change the structure of your results pages then you can have well-sorted data table.
I uploaded this to my hosting and everyone can check it. If you want to use them, I will send you all the files. I didn't link everything, but it's not a big deal to do if you want to use it.
Also, I can comment code, if necessary for easier handling.

it is quite coincidental that the colours are compatible with @irfan_pak10 website and ads design. 

[examplens]

Bump! I should make the time to do this, so any ideas are still welcome!

I already forgot about this, did you look at my previous post in this thread?

[actmyname]

I hope we don't go overboard with needless animations and "swoosh-ping" effects. (https://moneroworld.com/whysougly.html)

I would rather have a page that I can load quickly and easily than a page that looks like another blog template that was shoehorned in simply because the site-owner wanted a "modern look" rather than focusing on functionality.

[LoyceV]

did you look at my previous post in this thread?

Yes, a long time ago. I hope to have some time in the weekend.

focusing on functionality.

That sounds like me

It would also be nice to have a tiny bit of PHP (or whatever) that allows for an input field, and converts a number into an URL.
Examples

• input msgID 54720568 > link to http://loyce.club/archive/posts/5472/54720568.html
• input topicID 5210425 > link to http://loyce.club/archive/topics/521/5210425.html
• input userID 465017 > link to http://loyce.club/archive/members/46/465017.html
• and older posts:
  input oldmsgID 112 > link to http://loyce.club/archive/oldposts/0/1xx.html#msg112

This would make it much easier to use 35M posts! View unedited/deleted posts (search per post, per user or per topic), and it's probably quite easy to make for someone who knows this.

Update: This now works!
Thanks bitmover!

[dkbit98]

Common LoyceV you can do it
I like what examplens showed in his examples (but it can be improved), just don't forget to enable option for dark/light switch if possible.
It is important to have quick and easy navigation with back and forward buttons.
Responsive design would also be nice for easier browsing on all devices.

It would be nice if there is a search box to it where anyone can search a user and his deleted posts. How often does it record posts?

Hope to see its GUI.

[LoyceV]

How often does it record posts?

Every few seconds (almost instantly).

Good day, LoyceV. and other members I would like to join in this contest with my design.

I recommend not using the MetaMask symbol, at least so as not to confuse newbies. If I were the creator of Metamask, I would take it as plagiarism and take steps to protect the identity of my product.You can take a look at this selection of resources, I'm sure you will find what you need: https://neede.co/#/Templates
