I prefer the bar graph. Its much easier to read.

Also, I prefer the real rank over 'what rank you are because you were randomly put into a matchup thanks to RNGesus'

I also I was thinking about it, and Im not so sure I like the server names being colored, The reason I say this is it makes them hard to read. Particularly Red. So maybe instead, you could make the text black, and put a colored BG behind each server name or something like that.\

Edit: Also I think I liked it better with the squared ends on the bar graph rather than the rounded ends. Its much easier to read the square bargraph in the case of close ppt. But that just my oppinion. Either way it looks great and I like what you've done.

Really like the PPT screen there Afala, the coloured bars make it really clear to see at a glance who dominates when.  Not 100% sure about the colours themselves though, can they be made to match those used in-game or at least some derivative of them?

I like honest and constructive comments. For example, earlier today when I released the "PPT-tab" and I showed it to my girl friend she honestly told me that she liked the graphics but that the color were awful... Which brings me to my next post.

For those wondering, no I am not Afala's girlfriend.

I think I prefer the bars over the pies, but they'll both look better once the right colours are in place.  Perhaps you could add an option to let the user choose the display format?

Also can you right-justify the 2 digit values relative to the 3 digit ones?  Seeing tens and hundreds columns all mixed up triggers my OCD...

Best idea is if someone had Photoshop to sample the hexcode for it ( I think that is possible)? I do like a lot of the changes though.

Edit:

RED: 0x1730FF (HEX), #FF3017 (HTML), <255,48,23>(RGB), <0,81,91,0>(CMYK), <6,91,100>(HSV)

BLUE: 0xFFC500 (HEX), #00C5FF (HTML), <0,197,255> (RGB), <100,23,0,0> (CMYK), <193, 100, 100> (HSV)

GREEN: 0x5DDA03 (HEX), #03DA5D (HTML), <3, 218,93> (RGB), <84,0,49,15> (CMYK), <145,99,86>(HSV)

All of these are taken values while I have GemFX on so shades may be slightly off depending on my shaders. I don't know for sure how the tool I used works. Also every pixel was a slightly different shade, so general area.

Hmmm, I'm not sure...

Backgrounds make colors appear differently as well. I sampled both the pie chart on the scoreboard in game and the colors around tower/keeps/camps in game and they all were relatively close to each other. Though they're all bright with darker colors around them and your table has a white background. Also, I have GemFX like I said, and (I think) my saturation is slightly yellow.

I'll assume you only need hex as it is for web.


Sampled from 3 different sources within GW2 GUI

Edit: The biggest problem, I think is the green that was sampled by you, sorrows, was a bit too blue for whatever reason. Where it seems most of the gw2 greens are more yellow-ish.

Anyone know the rgb (red-green-blue) format of the color in game?

Should be easy enough to convert.

And yeah, the thing I was using was low scale because I don't have Photoshop and it didn't require an install. I wasn't going to be 100% confident in my answers.

Darn!  I wanted to get you guys flowers for the wedding!

So, based on some comments I decided to redo the PPT section.

I went through all the trouble to create Pie-chart (for cassy)

<3

Letting people click something so they can choose the charts they prefer is always good.  Also if the colors are hard to correct you could try reducing the transparency, or adding texture.  That way they aren't so bright.

Some news about the project!

Coming this week :

- Europe for the whole site
- Local time option (not sure how many are fan of UTC)
- Fixed prediction section (it's currently not updating properly...)

Then 3 new sections are planned for I don't know when some of which will include info not found anywhere else

About the site usage, there is roughly 100 unique visitors per day coming mostly from USA (42%), Australia (18%) and Canada (7.5%). Not so sure how accurate that data is though.

[Gudradain]

The new version is up and it includes Europe!!!

[cassy]

Very cool!

Bugs should be fixed.

[Gudradain]

Been fixing a couple of UI bugs or ugly things before I start the next section. One notable is the color palet for the PPT section. I have used the colors that Aduah gave me. The first ones for the bar bodies and the last ones for the bar borders.

Well, I hope it's better now because I'm completely lost when it comes the time to match colors together...

[Gudradain]

Super fail moment... I was wondering why the number of visitors suddenly drop to nearly 0 in the last 2 days. Turns out I commented the tracking code...
