Hawk & Badger Railroad Forum

Maybe some of the old players are bored at home and digging out old games.

That picture fits pretty good for the banner of that section.
It would be nice to find one similar that fits the header a bit better but that one works.

I believe I still have a few pictures of The General I took myself at the Kennesaw Railway Museum. If you're interested I'll see if i can find them. I really can't remember if they'd be usable for the banner or not. It was pretty tight quarters for proper picture taking. blue Edit 1: Well, I found a...

Ah! Cool.
I know some sites use a javascript to display some web fonts. I can't think of the script right now though.

Edit 1: One of them is fonts.gstatic.com
There's one or two more I've come across in my travels around the web.

Are you going to have a fall back font for the web font for folks that don't allow those scripts?
Just curious.

Ahhh! OK! That what I was wondering.

So you're using Highslide instead of Lightbox because Highslide doesn't use Javascript?

Do I understand that right? Forgive me. I just woke up.

Lookin' good.

Fell free.

I don't think it mentions this in the article but the GNRR, as it said, runs from Marietta ( actually Elizabeth, where it interconnects with the Western & Atlantic Sub of CSX - the same line that is infamous for The Great Locomotive Chase back in the Civil War ) to Canton, GA ( about 22 miles ),...

Any of the pictures on this page - http://hawkdawg.com/photos/fm/fm-gnr.htm - can be used with permission, but they're probably too small for your use, unless you can crop/resize to suit. I'll see if I can find some more by the Fireman over at RRPicturesArchive.net. I have handshake permission from ...

I wish you were around when I started the current mess.

I'm not of the ones that really count, but for myself, I hate to see the work Hawk portrayed to us disappear. But hey, it does look good and easy to go with the flow. :salute: I'm 110% behind Gumboots updating the site to his preferences. After all, it's his job now to update and maintain it so it ...

Looks like it's coming along pretty good.

If I remember right, I just used the same background he used when his site was live. I did that so folks would more readily recognized it.
It could use some gussying up though, if you even want to keep it.

For example, the footer include for the copyright can be done with this: All Original Content Copyright &copy; 2001 - <!--#config timefmt="%Y" --><!--#echo var="DATE_LOCAL" --> hawkdawg.com - All Rights Reserved. That's all it needs. :) So by doing that you no longer need th...

Just a quick observation to report: Under the 'Railroad Photos' main menu link, there's still a link to the now defunct Contact Page.

The editor I use for html and css ( Edit Plus ) does indentation automatically ( as well as color coding of code ), making all the lines easier to read, so I never really gave it much thought. I do know that opening up some of the stuff I did in other editors looks like a mess due to lack of indenta...

All the non-railway links is just stuff I've used to - in some way, work on the site. They most likely won't have anything to do with what you do. Feel free to delete them or add your own. Whatever you want to do with that section. :salute: I'm looking forward to what you do with the site when you g...

No worries. I can just add "by Hawk" under the title. I was thinking something like "A road trip story by Hawk", but whatever you like is good. ;-) I'll have a look through and see if I spot anything else. It looks like you don't like centering stuff. **!!!** Just a silly compul...
