Hi everyone. Major news:
The Unofficial Stargrunt II Web Site is CLOSED! However, stargrunt.com is now
open!
Yes, we've moved to bigger and better quarters, at stargrunt.com.
Also, as you'll notice, a new design - I feel simpler and cleaner than
previously, and from my end at least, much easier to maintain! And of course,
all the usual great rules additions, scenarios, after battle reports and
fiction you've come to expect. (The Images directory is closed for the moment,
undergoing a major overhaul, but the site opening wouldn't wait!) Hope you
enjoy the new site.

I hope the tiny font is only temp as I DONT have either a 21" screen or a
magnafying glass.

What screen resolution are you set at?
(I checked my visitor logs, and the highest percentage of people had 800x600,
followed by 1024x768).
However I was thinking about the font, and it is rather small.

OHMYGOSH, how am I to remember this?!?!? ;->=
Well done on the effort to set this up! Even as a member of the space heads
group, I salute your valiant work!

As a major 'old man' of the group, I found it readable, but with difficulty.
Given the 'waste' space on the sides of the window, as I'm seeing it, makes
the squinting a little irritating, but if you feel we're just kvetching, I'm
not arguing.
Could I suggest you grey-out links not yet ready? I realize it's easier
to replace a 'not ready yet' screen with the real thing and not have to worry
about keeping track of all the disabled links to reset. However, users behind
slow lines can get pretty frustrated after waiting a long download.
Again, small suggestions, not demands.

Just looking at the page and one rule lept out at me on the biotech page.
I thought it had been resolved that if a command unit passed an action the
activated unit was allowed to fire their weapons.
I'll have to second the motion for bigger fonts. This page has the annoying
feature of completely ignoring my browser specified fonts. I tend to avoid
such pages as they get too small to read on my Sun box.

I use 1024x768 myself, but there is one definite usability glitch on the
website:
the CSS is specifying fixed font sizes, this is a problem for anyone who has
spent some time specifying fonts and sizes for our browsers. Relative sizes
allow the web designer to specify how the text elements should appear relative
to other items on the same page. There's also way more Javascript than a
static page really needs. But I'm veering offtopic.

Thanks muchly.

Yeah, major feedback so far has been about font size. I'm fixing that.

Ha! That would be 1. the message board and 2. the images. Images, well, that's
my fault for wanting to get the site out there before everything was
translated across from the old site. Message board is... well.. the cgi is
playing up.
Easy enough done though.

And thanks for them! Keep 'em coming!

Anyone know who is in charge of stargrunt.com? I wanted to
add myself to the opponents list but stargrunt.com/submits.html
doesn't seem to exist. Tried to give feedback and got an error about no mail
user in form.
I think, though I can't find the post, that Tom Barclay said he was bringing
it up, but that it wasn't ready yet.
On the other hand, I've been having a!@#$%'ing lot of senior moments lately.

I believe that it is Jeremy Sadler. His last post to the list was from
jsadler@_REMOVETHIS_earthling.net. Obviously remove the _REMOVETHIS_
from the address before using it.
Jeremy seems to be buried in other responsabilities (as he has been unable to
respond to some of my inquiries last month).
