On a side note, HK wanted to know if the animations will slow down the links. The answer was yes! Right now SMR is a text based game and text based game are fast. You click a link or button and something happens but text based games do not have graphic. Yes you can change background images and do a few other things but they are still text based.
Most user now a days want more from their web based games. They want graphics, animations, interaction with the game and the other players. These new style games bring some old problems back to the front. Some of you may remember the old problem of the 14k and 56k modem. If you were running a 14k modem you were kills by those players that were lucky enough to have a 56k modem.
Graphics and animation kind of bring back those type of problem again. The ones with a high speed connection and a fast running computer will have an edge on those with low speed connections and slow running computers. I don't know if SMR is even going to use my layout after I finish it. But I do know that you can not have high graphics and animations with out paying a price somewhere along the way. So if SMR uses my layout of someone else's layout you will have some of these problems. That is unless someone else's is a mid-grade graphics on a still text based game.
Well back to working on the html and css part of the layout.
