Just thought I’d show you all my new profile, It’s pretty cool and opens up in the AIM today window. To see it either view the buddy info for “TheBigKevDogg” (if its not the middle of the night i’m probably online) or paste this into an IM to yourself and click on the link:
Remember, don’t just click on the link that shows up below, copy that whole thing and paste it into an IM to yourself, then click on it!
That’s great!!! You can do so much more with a nice big window like that, and it looks cool in the AIM Today window; very clean. I’m going to have to do one now… 🙂
Have you tried setting up nested links to show up in the same window (instead of opening a new browser window)?
By the way, I like the “Girls are Evil” proof. Too funny! 😉
I have some of the links nested, it’s just a pretty small area to work with when viewing some sites. Maybe I should do that for things such as the “girls are evil proof.” I don’t know of any way to change the window title. I’m glad you guys like it!
ya its pretty cool. that is a lot better than subprofiles so i guess im gonna have to work on one too. thanks for the idea.
How do you format a) the link to your html site?
b) did you have to size the window to a specific dimension? or did it not matter? ie. 480×240
thanksThe link format is exactly as TheBigKevDogg described in the initial post. The window size is set by AIM and cannot be changed when called (although you might be able to resize it with javascript… worth testing). The pixel dimensions are 550×360.
That’s a good idea Jeff (the javascript resizing), i think i’ll give that a shot! I coded the whole thing myself, mostly in just plain HTML but I used Dreamweaver for a little bit. I used flash for the top thing and photoshop for the the buttons and that’s about it! I’m glad you guys like it!
I might be missing the point, but why don’t you just load the “profile” in a regular browser window?
True enough. It could just go in a regular browser window, but there is something gratifying about sticking it in place of the standard AIM Today drivel.
