It's almost finished - Finally...

Tuesday, January 23, 2007 3:14 PM

I'm almost done with Community.Glacsy.com and just finished the last bits of the sign-up system. It's pretty awesome considering it's built by hand, by me and wasn't easy to do even though ASP.NET 2.0 has a great Membership API. But if you know me, I'm very detailed and picky when it comes to things like this. So, I stripped it out, dissected it, and came up with this new cool little sign-up with "My Experience Activation". It's like putting together a 1964 Corvette. You take your time with it, treat it as your best hobby ever, then when you're done, you take a step back and simply glare at your new creation and embrace the awesome feeling of "How in the hell did I do that?" and end it with a "Wow, that's is just so cool, now what else?". My goal is to build a site better than Baby Phat.com, Victoria's Secret.com, and Loreal.com and imagine if they where all mutated together into a single site. That is my goal. Yes I know, I have a lot of work to do. I know this will be a great thing for Glacsy. Well, back to coding...

Hey, thatnks for the comment. I know it's a bit dark, but with little time to finish by this Spring, it will have to stay for now. I do plan on using full capabilities of WPF/E once it's perfected. Then, I'll pour more effort into the design of the site once it's complete. But for now, it's getting the site online and the features working (without bugs, ugh). 1/24/2007 12:09 PM | Ray Linder
