ASP.NET web developer wanted

[Vitoc]

So I completed the data access and business logic layers that can be used to do the CRUD operations on records in GMUD's native DB format.  Whoever volunteers (yes, volunteers, nobody's made a dime here) shouldn't have to write a single line of T-SQL since there's now an API that does all of that for you (I will walk you through it if you need a little crash course).  After finishing the two layers, I sat down to start laying out the actual web forms for the web editor and decided 40 hours a week doing web development is enough for me.  I don't have the stamina to lay out all these controls on all these web forms and make them easy to use and look perty, especially since I'm not involved with content at all.  I believe my spare time would be better spent fixing bugs and adding features to the GMUD engine.

So yeah, if you know C# and have a working knowledge of web design and your are interested in helping out with this project, please let me know.  Keep in mind, this is essentially just an admin site, so we don't have to bother with CSS or graphics; you'd just be placing buttons, labels, textboxes, dropdownlists, and gridviews on a page and hooking them up to the data using the layers mentioned above.  Maybe a little javascript at some point for some client-side validation but nothing beyond that.  If you're interested please shoot me a pm (please include a little about your experience).

I'll let everyone know if/when we find someone.  Thanks!

did you find someone to do this?

fwiw i've been programming in c# for about 6 years now, and would be reasonably happy to help where i can. but i know splitting up work internationally with no real contact can be hard. but anyway, let me know what you think.

Cool deal.

I know I had something in mind when I posted that, but now I can't remember for the life of me what that web app was going to do.  :-\  Maybe stats on items or something?  Anyone else remember?

It was for our online editor... Its funny for someone who has been acused so many times of being a crispy critter I sure do have a good memory...

Ah, that's right.  Thanks animal. ;)

abc: We're basically after a web-based NMR-stlyle editor for items, mobs, spells, maps/rooms, etc.  I can give you the db structure (including stored procs) and the DAL/BLL I generated in C# which should be enough to get you started.  TCA and DC can probably give you more feedback on how you might want to do the UI since they're going to be the first ones using it.

sounds reasonably trivial.

what sql database are you using? and asp.net version? 2.0 and visual stupido 2005 i hope.

Aye.  ASP.NET 2.0 & VS2005.  We're using SQL Server 2k5.  If you don't have that you can use SQL Express, although it's a bit more difficult get stuff done without a nice GUI.

[abc]

yep i'm running 2k5 on my server at home so that's cool.

let me know where to get the stuff from and i can take at shot at it.

will i need to add more tables or do you reckon you've got that covered off? because if so set me up with your code generator as well. i've just finished writing my own; just made it generate solution files to include all it's generated files :D

Well I have some notes in the dev forum on possible improvements but for the most part the forms would look like NMR. There some other intresting stuff we might like to do with it too for organization/mapping out some of the more complicated textblocks.

[abc]

for the record i got the files from vitoc and set up the database fine; i haven't created a project or anything like that yet; and the .cs files scare me a little (so much stuffed into one file!) but maybe when it's in visual stupido things will become more clear.

nice
