This is just a start on an idea we had in another thread. Let me know what you think : The Teemings Cook Book
Eventually, we’ll be including all the recipes in the “Ultimate Recipe Thread” and the “Iron Chef” competitions. And of course, if anybody wanted to contribute any nifty graphics for the project, feel free.
I want to submit new recipes and some graphics.
Should I send them to the regular Teemings address?
In what format do you want the graphics? I’m imagining .jpg for photo based piccies and .gif or .jpg for stuff done in a vector based program. (72dpi, round about 200 pixels square sounds like a reasonable size, doesn’t it?)
Let me know what deadlines you are working to.
(oh, and if you don’t like the graphics, don’t feel you have to include them)
I’m not looking for graphics for each recipe, rather just a few title banners for each page. Maybe something with the title “The Teemings Cook Book” and a background with the type of food mentioned : appetizers, meat, fish, etc. It would have to be no more than about 500 wide by 100 high.
I think we could probably do a section on drink recipes as well. If someone could point out the apppropriate threads, I’d appreciate it.
I’ll be working on this on a continuing basis. I still have a regular job to hold down and my moderating duties, plus putting together the regular Teemings zine, so I’ll probably be posting about 10-20 recipes per week until I get through the whole mess of them we have right now. (Of course, by then, we’ll probably have more to add! )
Unca Cecil once discussed a recipe for Pot-Brownie-like things, purely in the interests of science of course! (And whatever the hell you call Toklas’s recipe, it ain’t a brownie!) Will we see it in desserts or cocktails?
And I say you HAVE to include those candied rosemary things of Scylla’s from one of the Iron Chef threads. If only as a warning!
Speaking of Iron Chef, isn’t it time for another one? Hmmmmm…
Anyway, Euty, feel free to use any of my recipes you want, (if you still want any after this post! )
Nice start Euty, but I do believe that you have got the entries for appetizers and pastas reversed. Let me know how I can be of any help. Here’s a link to the Ultimate Recipe Thread’s Active Index.
AND this thread features the first appearance of Fenris! IF YOU ONLY READ ONE THREAD, IT MUST BE THIS ONE! A Mighty MARVELous SDMB collector’s item, already a CLASSIC, True Believer. Featuring the talents of Stainless Scylla, Fearsome Fenris, and a CAST OF THOUSANDS! Watch as Scylla ignores Fenris, setting in motion a series of events that will culminate (at some point) in JavaMaven1’s upcoming, soon-to-be classic: Secret Crisis on Infinite SDMB Iron Chefs! [sub]Coming soon to a message board near you. Void where applicable.[/sub]
I wish I had. Nope, it’s just a DHTML trick. I think it only workd on MIE 5.0 or greater. Not sure if it works on netscape or not. I was pretty impressed with the effect myself.
