How To Make Curved Edges?

FlashMan · 10-13-2008, 10:16 AM

I asked earlier how to make a box, but I was wandering if it is possible to make an already existing box have curved edges. I would really like to do that for all of the boxes on the left side, the header, the grey menu box, and the blue game title boxes. I would like to make every box look kind of like the boxes on miniclip.com. On my custom original design, everything looked like that, but now with the script I don't know how to incorporate everything in. Is there a way I can build a custom design and then have someone code it to the arcadescript.com script? Is coding a design hard to do/ are there any tutorials? My site is http://www.playpassgames.com. Can you help me out?

Im playing with this right now.. If you check out my site.. and look at the large box with Sonic in it and on the right side with the circle... I did this with Macromedia Fireworks..
The sonic box is actually a graphic with html text, i could have made that border anyway I wanted.

The circle is a graphic with hot spots.. however, i cound have put an html box in the circle to have actaul href links.

I will be trying to do a fancy box next, to put the games or lists in.

Its kind of easy.. just paint a picture or import graphics.. then you pick which grahics you want clickable OR draw boxed in the picture that will include html.. then SLICE it.

If you look on the net, you can probably find a "demonstration" copy of Fireworks. There may even be an OpenSource app that will do this.

thx

Do guys think it would be "too much" for me if I tried to do a curved edge box for every box and game box on the index page?

Any template/design for be implemented for any script if you know how to code it. I believe you can ask on DP forums or ScriptLance for help. It's usually around $100-150 (depending on difficulty) to code a whole design. It's better to be unique than use the original look, so I would try getting your own design up.

you can look at the index page to see: http://www.playpassgames.com/index.php.

I don't know who you are being hosted by, but I went to take a look and closed your site after 25 seconds and still a blank white page stuck on Waiting for playpassgames.com...
