The Hive WorkShop on FaceBook and Mobile Apps

Well, I've been through this message suggest the Hive team, creating an official page on Facebook. I think this page will help the Hive WorkShop in its resources and interaction between users. Another way is to create applications for mobile dispostivos (smartphones, tablets, android ...).
Furthermore, I would like to develop an election to create this page. It would be a good idea (in my opinion), they created one contest for one that developed this application, it is clear that there would be first, second and third place. But it is a form of incentive to users of Hive.
Thanks for reading, put your opinion and suggestion.

yeah, i'm using Android btw

 

[Land-Sengklek]

For sometime im using my symbianv5, and sometime i use a pc...

 

[DivineLight]

what is symbianv5?

 

[Land-Sengklek]

thats is OS(Operating System) on my mobile phone.. its are nokia

 

[DivineLight]

oh i see..

 

[Orcnet]

I remembered joining hive page on facebook I just don't know what happened now

 

[Rui]

If I'm not mistaken, we had a Twitter account, but its creator was Pyritie who (was forced to) part with the site in not the best terms last year, so he probably took it down.

 

[Orcnet]

What about that group in DeviantArt?

 

[Rui]

Probably also by Pyritie or someone else. I believe Ralle never created any official account in social platforms outside of this site.

 

[DivineLight]

why?

 

[Orcnet]

why?

Its probably were now here in le internet and don't need any more branches spreading its leaves.

But since technology is growing fast now and let's mobile phone to surf the internet, I think we do need mobile phone compatible hive page/s?

 

[DivineLight]

yes, when i'm far away from laptop i'm use mobile phone to hang around hive.. and many people did that too, I think we do need mobile phone compatible hive page

 

[GhostWolf]

Never liked dumbed "Phone-compatible" pages myself.
It's not like phones can't easily run the same exact pages by now.

 

[Squiggy]

This is utter bullshit and should not be put into practice.
Facebook is NOT hive and an extra app for mobile devices is really useless because every smartphone has an integrated browser.
Oh, and if you're on a limited 3g/lte connection, you shouldn't visit a site that is full of images and videos but rather keep it to fagbook or whatever.

 

[Ralle]

New stuff? Why not? But I am slow and you all know it.

 

[DivineLight]

i didn't know it, Chieftain

 

[Xonok]

New stuff? Why not? But I am slow and you all know it.

You might be slow, but you can use war stomp and still have an advantage, so it's okay.

 

[DivineLight]

yeah you got that right

 

[Roland]

1. Hiveworkshop =/= Facebook
2. This is not a good suggestion
3. Why should we have a Phone version?
4. Go home
5. Go to your Computer
6. And Go to Hive.

 

[Orcnet]

Seriously guys, this is a site discussion, behave and respond in a normal way, not like warring generals shouting for a battle.

 

[Daffa]

Seriously guys, this is a site discussion, behave and respond in a normal way

agree, this is Site Discussion, so we can suggest anything related to the site

1. Hiveworkshop =/= Facebook

yes, Hive is not Facebook or Twitter, that's for sure

2. This is not a good suggestion

I don't think so, this can prove useful.

3. Why should we have a Phone version?

because most user here uses Mobile for most time to access Hive, so I think it's not a bad addation

4. Go home
5. Go to your Computer
6. And Go to Hive.

that's not very polite for commenting on Suggestions.

You might be slow, but you can use war stomp

after all, Ralle is the Chieftain

If I'm not mistaken, we had a Twitter account, but its creator was Pyritie who (was forced to) part with the site in not the best terms last year, so he probably took it down.

If I was right, Ghan still manage the Hive's Twitter

 

[DivineLight]

after all, Ralle is the Chieftain

agree

 

[Ralle]

I manage the Twitter account but don't use it much. I have no idea about the Facebook page. I prefer to put my energy into this site and not the others.
A mobile version of the site is a good idea. It may happen at some point.

 

[Daffa]

I see, so the updates @Twitter are made by you

A mobile version of the site is a good idea. It may happen at some point.

can't wait, really appreciate this one

 

[DivineLight]

i can't wait this one, thanks Chief!

 

[GreeN!X]

Facebook? I don't know. I tried searching for THW on FB once and came up with this horrid group that has a cover photo of a bunch of gay dudes. So I don't think its a pretty good idea. I don't think it's quite useful too as most users on that site aren't into modding.

Mobile version sounds cool though.

 

[DivineLight]

Mobile version!
FB is suck!

 

[Orcnet]

Ralle I hope you don't do hashtags like #OMGHiveNeedsMoreGerls #EatingLunch #SWAG in twitter :>

and yeah it would be useful to others using mobile phones

 

[Daffa]

Ralle don't even use Hashtag for news Orcnet
Or did he?

 

[Squiggy]

How do you do a compressed version of a media-related site again?
I mean, I understand that you can simplify the layout like css or vB-styles but the images would need to be compressed to save more bandwidth which usually results in pixilated images of the initial picture; like if you compress a compressed jpg to jpg at half the quality (yea, it looks horrible).

You serve a smaller version.

convert blarg.jpg -resize 50% blarg_mobile.jpg

 

[Ralle]

Nah the images would be the same or not displayed. It's mostly just the CSS being responsive and easier to read and stuff.

I've checked out the hive out of curiosity on my mobile phone (LG) and the fonts appeared to be REALLY, like really big. Much bigger then everything else. The whole layout, everythin appeared right, just the fonts where bigger, no matter which display version I switched in.

Just wanted to share this expierence here.

 

[Squiggy]

That may be related to your phone browser's font size because they look alright on both my lenovo tablet and my Sony phone.

 

[PROXY]

Nope, every website looks alright with fitting font, just thw is messed up.
Its also not every text, for example, the signature appears as it should but the replies, notifivations etc not.

 

[Misha]

yeah, that FB group has gone to waste.. pretty much mocking our site :/
too bad FB is so.. careless

i know what out site should have on FB, but i'm not really wanting to run it on FB S:

 

[Statharas]

Ralle has Twitter Access I think.

 

[Almia]

I created a Page for Hive, though im too lazy to update it :/

 

[Daffa]

Ralle has Twitter Access I think.

He does
