So, made some headway on the live waterfall today. I have it working for one user at a time, and I'll have this open to everyone to play with shortly. In the meantime, here's the url for the link to the waterfall. I have it set to not require a login, at this time. As soon as I have I tworking for multiple users at a time, it will require that you log into your account first.
Waterfall link is here. Click me.
Almost done setting up the accounts to hook into this main view. As soon as this is done I'll post something here and in SecretGroup3.
Also, the official Potsies.org Facebook group is open now, and I'll ask people to move over tomorrow.
Before I open this up to letting you create accounts and posting stuff, please take a minute and let me know in SecretGroup3 what you think about this for the general look and feel of the main interface.
If I can nail down this look, I will move some of this over to the Potsies.org website and we can start testing it there!
Do I want to support rich text?
Yes. Definitely. Will that be easy? I don't know. This might be a more complicated thing than I'd like to spend time figuring out.
Static and dynamic content editing
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions could all be things included in rich text. But that would require a custom and specialized editor. Plus, when you pasted text in, it would show up with the original text formatting.
And what about pasting, huh? Well that can get nasty.
I'm not sure I'm okay with that. It could lead to super ugly text blocks fast, like when you're copy and pasting text from another website.
This is an example of very little text in one of these containers.
And THIS is an example of more text in one of these containers.

I have one more thing to do before I open this up for people to start creating accounts and posting. I wanted to nail down this main text area and the general look and feel for the main screen of the page. This is on PC.
I'm obviously trying not to be too close to Twitter, Facebook, etc., while still maintaining some similarities. So please let me know what you think in the group. As soon as I nail this down, you'll be able to log into the real site and start posting there!
