PostHeaderIcon Gallery updated

I finally made it around to "fixing" the Gallery. It's now embeded inside the main theme.

The steps I had to take..

 

Originally the gallery was hosted under http://gallery.crackedconsole.com/ this caused the iFrame javascript "Auto Height" function to fail as it was calling a cross domain webpage. I've moved the gallery under http://www.crackedconsole.com/gallery .

You can still access it via http://gallery.crackedconsole.com/ due to a redirection script I put in place. I may eventually shut this down, but for now it will stay.

I can't tell you how happy I am to finally mark this off the list!

 

 

PostHeaderIcon Arcade plans added

I've added 8 arcade plans / blueprints to the download section. The Lusid plans are what I used to build my cabinet, my control panel has since been rebuilt (larger).

You can also find a table top pacman style arcade cab and a centipede replica among others.

You can find the plans under the downloads section (direct link)

As I find plans around the web I'll add them to the downloads, so check back often.

If you have arcade plans you wish to submit, please email Palmore at good'ole crackedconsole.com.

PostHeaderIcon Updating the downloads

It's a small start, but it's a start in the right direction. I've begun updating the downloads section again, this time I've added some of my old code projects, some more tools for your arcade and other utilities.

I've also updated the Forums and added a new section for the file server I just ordered, this will follow in detail the build and unboxing etc.

 

Stay tuned for end of next week when everything arrives!

 

PostHeaderIcon AT&T Tilt 2, At a glance

 

Well its been a long time coming, and I fianlly upgraded my phone from the AT&T Tilt (HTC Kaiser/Tytn II) to the AT&T Tilt 2

 

Here's my first impressions of the phone.

 

1. the foot print is larger than the Tilt 1 of the past, after using my tilt for 2+ years, it feels alittle bulky (but no where near the size of my SX66). The case I was handed at the AT&T store doesn't help... It looks like something from Fisher Price and had a big scratch on the screen upon unboxing.

2. No jog wheel! and very very few hardware buttons. Honestly I love my hardware buttons....

The Jog wheel and OK button in the back, the D pad in the front... I almost feel naked with out them and find myself trying to hit the tiny tiny windows OK thru the clunk plastic protector case and only end up frustrating myself.   I miss my hardware keys!

3. Oddly enough I've had issues using Pocket Controler and hitting the Space bar while typing... It seems to be related to what touch screen Keyboard input layout I'm using. Needless to say, the space bar doesn't work depending...

4. Using Explorer on my desktop to browse the root drive and into the Windows folder on the device was and has been HORRIBLE. I typically do this to manage my Start Menu and folder structure... it can take 2-3 minutes to populate the \Windows folder... sad....sad.

5. It has a G sensor... yet TouchFlo doesn't support rotation via the G sensor...

6. I can't stand the "Messenge Sent" Dialog, I know it's possible to disable, but it's just annoying ;)

 

 

More to come as I tinker with it.
