xlobby @ the bar

[Jay]

I zipped over to Google> images and keyed in 'dry martini' and 'sidecar cocktail'.
Instant gratification.
Visually, anyway

[billberet]

yea, i get all my images from google.
i'm almost done with my skin.


is there a way to make a spider get the image from google images?

[billberet]

if if anyone is interested here is my drinks database
http://www.cyberdyne-sys.com/upload/drinks.rar

my skin is for 1024x768 so you might have to adjust the pages to fit your xlobby setup.
but the basics work, database has 1200 drinks.


on the main page, i have a search button, i did not finish creating the search, you'll have to do that one on your own.
ENJOY

[Jay]

Great stuff!
Did you mean to leave out the skin>generic>next and previous page events for some reason? Just curious.

Hope someone will post a 'Search' solution or add a scroll bar in your screen.

[billberet]

the next and previous should work, i use them on mine, you just have to create an event for them
i made specific events for the drinks, that way i keep it all together, i didn't use the generic one.
drinks:next page
drinks:previous page
just create an event of next, previous for the category
then on the details page same thing goes for items
next item
previous item
so when your in the drinks detail page, you can go from drink to drink.

i also just finished the search feature and it worked, just take the movie search, and add the category for the drinks and you're all set

[Jay]

Nevermind. Got scrollbar going.

[Jay]

Oops, posted b4 I looked. OK on search. Thanks.
(and cheersh)

*edit*. Yes, I did the next/previous. Works great.

[billberet]

great, glad i was able to contribute.
i'm assuming everyone knows xlobby because i can't explain very well, lol
i'm glad you got it working !!!!!!

[Jay]

Now maybe Joe the Plumber can help us with the automation bit

[Jay]

Decided to let the main page flow thru to see nearby mixes. Not for everyone but I like it
Grey Goose is my fav, so it stays.
Thanks so much for this!
Will add some HA to the screens via the HS2 Plugin.

[billberet]

nice, i like it

try to border the grey goose image, so it looks like it is just floating there.
that's what i did, it frames in the picture making it looks classy

[Jay]

Yup. That's on today's list.

[billberet]

hey jay, what did you mean by

Will add some HA to the screens via the HS2 Plugin. Homeseer?
if so, what would that do?
now i'm cureous, lol

[Jay]

Yes, HomeSeer.
At least bar lighting and IR control for the telly.
I'm not thinking about liquor dispensing. Yet.

My main control screen's a bit crowded anyway.

[billberet]

ahhh, gotcha
i still have 1.7, couldn't get my hands on 2.x yet
so i'm SOL for the plugin for the moment.

i just ordered a few more touchscreens so i'm in the process of wiring them up.
after that, i'll look at some HS projects. i have about 12 x10 modules laying around, i'm sure i can use them.
it's never ending, lol
