I love P!nk and it's my intention to make the site look and work better then the one she has got now: www.pinkspage.com And of course learn alot during the process.Sarinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14250605813879316511noreply@blogger.comBlogger241100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030985959530418902.post-33712948901089987332008-01-17T04:53:00.000-08:002008-01-17T05:00:18.869-08:00

Pinkssite.com has it's own forums!After a couple of days working and seeing how making and custumising a forum, it is done! Members can upload their pictures, make an own album, avatars, personal content and posting of threads and replies, anyways there is much more interactivity for the fans! On this forum you can pretty much say anything you like and it's not only about this site to give

Yes they also changed pinkspage the forums and made it look like *peeep*, I finally decided to try out to make one aswell and see how it works.Yesterday I installed the forum and been busy with the functionalities on this, made a quick banner and different sections, already have a few members on here while it's not even finished yet! But it'll be soon!

Build in an extra function in the site.Because a lot of people found it annoying that the music stopped if they would go on another page, I resolved this by making a pop up function. If you click on a new window in the music player, a new window would pop up and u still can go through the site without the music stops! Also the normal music player pauzes the song and the pop up starts directly

Yes, I'm slowly adding more and more pictures on the site not only I've added pictures but also much more music. I also want to thank the people who voted on my site and the number of hits is monsterous.I've added more then 100 random pictures in the gallery page and more live music.I also wanted to thank the people who voted for my site on certain site's, I've won two awards now: one on

The site is finished! All the links are working, my girlfriend helped my with finding Q&A's out of interviews and I quickly made a link page.So the beta version is up, if you have any comments to improve the site you can contact me: sarina@pinkssite.comEnjoy the site!It can be seen at www.pinkssite.com

Today I'm making the pages for the other sections, they're all different from sizes and content so it'll take alot of work.The intro should start directly, and if you don;t want to see it I've made a button to skip the intro and you'll come on the home page directly.At this time I made 5 pages and tested them in IE 6.0 and FireFox this all works just fine and I don't think that there will be

What’s a site without news about the person where it’s about?My girlfriend helped me with searching some latest news about Pink, I chose to have it simple and short so people will directly know what’s going on, and sometimes with a small picture to make it look attractive. Of course with the date above it to see if it’s old or new content.

Writing and listening, that's what I all did the last day’s fulltime working from 9 'til 3 in the morning. The lyrics on the booklets or on the internet, are mostly wrong and totally missing out whole sentences that Pink sings. Those things make the songs stronger and understandable, that's why I wanted to write my own lyrics for the site. I'm glad I'm finally done because it took a lot of time(

The video player is done, I wanted to keep it simple just like the other parts of the site and very functional.I've had help with getting the video's in good quality and without logos or tags on it. The player automatically starts loading the .FLV video's in so it actually runs right away. I've made screenshots with the title from every single in the house style of my site, as a start to show

A catchy intro to show people what the site is about.I wanted to make a "small" intro, otherwise people might just click the whole site off and that's not what we want. So to make a catchy, original and still simple intro, I chose to use Pink's voice and her fans clapping and cheering for the sound underneath the intro. This has been edited in Soundbooth and been put together into After Effects.

Finally! The homepage of Pinkssite is made and the biography is written.There is one page totally filled in and working, the main page. Now I have to find out how to make the menu and the other pages work best, since I want the music player to stay underneath the menu on every page.The biography is one of those other pages and is totally handwritten and not stolen content from another site. This

Yes finally done! I've made a calendar and a music player, with both of them I was struggling with "small" bugs that didn't wanted to be seen. Any other way they both work now and I solved them on my own.For the calendar I had to make a list of events what pink all did the last seven years, this was a lot of work to find this all out, days fulltime working on this and our lady has been very busy

A Content Management System(CMS) is an online system that manages the content of a website. Content such as: texts, pictures, audio and computer files can be uploaded, viewed, controlled, organized and eventually published on a website.Well about a whole week I was busy following a 183 paged tutorial about a CMS, Joomla to be exactly. First I had to install PHP on my website otherwise I can't

Last week I started with slowly putting things together for the website, because I have all kinds of media that has to be in the site, this isn’t going to be an easy job.The banner is made as a video and the menu has to overlap this video, under these two things you'll have to see the banner as a picture while the video loads, this usual takes about a small second so I choose to not make a

Just a message to let you all know what I did last 1,5 week.I worked the first three days of my “Autumn vacation” and took the last two days off to celebrate my mum’s birthday which ended up staying in the hospital with my granny whole day because things got really bad with her. The doctors found out that there were a lot of things wrong with her and she passed away the next day on Friday 19

Finally, my banner is done and it came out even more gorgeous than I thought it would be.I wanted to make the logo in 3D which I did and let pink colored light shine behind it. I made the banner "alive" in After Effects with help from a few plug-ins. I tested the plug-ins a lot and didn’t want to make the banner too busy.

Here is the last render of my 3D logo.It’s the logo of Pink, I firstly had to make a vector drawing from the logo in Illustrator before I could make it in 3D. It was a bit tricky with putting the lights right but I’m satisfied with the end result, mostly because I’m not good at 3D.

After a lot of different styles, experiments I finally came up with the last and final interface.The only thing what should change of this interface is the logo in the banner what should be made in 3D and come back in the intro. I choose for a nice beautiful/female font for the menu and submenu's and "Verdana" for the content so everyone can see that if I load it in externally. The menu went back

Here are my interfaces I made during the last weeks.The first one is simple, I already knew how I wanted to build up the site because of the research and my sketches. I used two different fonts which also are used in her last dvd: "Live from Wembley arena".-Second one:Because I thought the submenu's were too neat for a person like Pink I get rid of them and changed the big menu into a kind of

Last night I bought a domain for the website.Because the site of Pink now is called "pinkspage" and actually it's not a page but a site, I thought of "pinkssite" directly. So the site will be based at:http://www.pinkssite.com/

So I want to create a powerful, stylish and more likely a powerful website, the banner is the place for me to leave out my creative side.-First I choose a picture of Pink which reflects her power of her music and personality, so I choose for this one and edited it in Photoshop: -Then I played around with her latest logo (also in Photoshop), which I'll probably will make in 3D: -This is the end

Since I’m a fan of Pink for years I know a lot about her. I'm going to write the content of the site myself (the lyrics of the songs and the biography), I have to research the news myself everyday and I already have thousand of pictures from Pink on my pc mainly from her message board.Of course because I’m a fan I already know the existing fan sites and how they look like so I don’t have to
