OK. what's your mind telling you?? How about you inform your mum?

xenaf, you claim to love each other? Have you been to the hospital since u guys started dating(I mean u falling sick)? If yes, how was his reaction(s)? If NO, can you pretend to be sick to know if he truly loves you?

Importing and not using it. Does it really count?

sisqology: Competition 1


First of all, register an account on www.bitbucket.org where you will be putting up your project

I will be posting a tutorial on how to upload(check in) your project

Problem

Design


Design a 3paged website .... where the homepage shows your company intro where read more links to about us., services, mission, vision.....Page2(contact) Consist of a form that submits to nowhere, the form must have the fields(Firstname, Lastname, email, address, phone) and must validate all fields. Page3(A static about Us page)that shows about your company and a Google map of maybe your location.

Rules

1. User must know the active page they are on
2. Page may not be necessarily responsive (but making it responsive is a boost). Bootstrap is allowed
3. Total colors of website should not be more than 3(one neutral color) for simplicity.
4. Slider on homepage is not necessary(but adding it may be a boost)


Development
Develop a threaded messaging web application where users register, login and can send message to a another user. You can create a view profile for every user where users may be clickable from thread to view each other's profile(Not necessary, but a boost)


Rules

1. User registration should consist of Firstname, Lastname, Password, Sex, Location.
2. Field validations with your selected language is required and strongly recommended (Javascript validation may be a GO)
3. Passwords should be strongly hashed.
4. When users Login, their homepage should be Conversation topics
5. Homepage without login should be Login page and a Link for registration.
6. Design can be just a white page but any little touch of design may be a Boost.



Overall Rule
You cant attempt if your name is not in the first post


Good luck

Your comments are welcomed.



Thank you

I already invited you guys. What's up

Maya2pretty: lol, i had a prettier smiley pic b4 oh, NL data loss oh...dat pic is old but thank u

This pix is still cool. can I?

Maya2pretty: #blush #blush #blush

I can pm you? don't wanna hit on u

Maya2pretty: as if dey'l covert it to money

Abi. U pretty!

suwailad: Guys only politics and sport is having a chance here. In real sense Nairaland is dead.

E.g. My hub: the programming section

ddippset: lol. But are you sure you are not begging for likes as well, by this comment? This reminds me I actually got 120 likes recently, so it's all gone? Choi, lemme check.

I just liked your post. 119 to go!!! lol

Nairaland's data loss has turned peeps begging for likes

berem: PDP e-rats, are you fools trying to prove me then that Fayose is not popular after all? So PDP actually rigged the election to favour Fayose because he couldn't win a senatorial seat under Labour Party?

Ok na!

Thought you were more knowledgeable, am disappointed!!! What you got in that skull? water, I guess

flying dutchman: Nairaland has become an important aspect of my life. The loss of data was bad. But you guys should back off the Owner's neck! Haba! Where were you all when he was building Nairaland Instead of showing sympathy for the young man, you are here running your mouths over a bottle of 'shekpe'!

You need to know what a good customer relationship is. Who gives a fk about when he was building??

kobonaire: his full name

Thanks man

kobonaire: I kind of agree, he's a brilliant programmer/software developer (I can attest to that because he's active on the software forums : "stack overflow" ). He does need help, like you said, in areas of management, operations etc. I don't believe he alone can do those duties, so he perhaps needs to hire competent professionals for those functions.

"Treating us as if we are robots" .... that one na de Naija style/way

pls, what's his username on stack overflow?

kobonaire: actually, I feel they should have been backing up daily. The commercial value of NL is high and so I am rather surprised that that management did not have an effective recovery scheme in place. I do hope that they have a back up of all our previous posts, likes, accounts etc and that they all get fully restored.

Seun needs to go for management training, and leadership training. He lacks those two important qualities. Imagine, not being able to address the people giving him his traffic stating what happened n carrying us along; treating us as if we are robots.

Don't know why he can't do a weekly backup. All my followed topics are gone
