Wouldn&#8217;t have thought that html could be entered right into the SSP writing spaces to cover attributes of those particular spaces, i.e., #left, #center, #right, etc. and while each has to be individually put in, it&#8217;s better to do it in SSP when the links and relationships are easy to see via the map view.<\/p>\n<p>Couple of things that I haven&#8217;t done yet that I think would be interesting is to integrate<a href=\"http:\/\/www.steveersinghaus.com\/archives\/1597\"> stretchtext<\/a> into <em>Paths<\/em>. Because of its nature of appearing dreamlike and fading, stretchtext mimics the nature of this particular narrative because it is basically reflections on &#8216;what if&#8217;s?&#8217; by the characters, and the possibility of different futures based on the choices. I like the idea of the text appearing on a different portion of the same page, and that might be one way to go.<\/p>\n<p>Another effect I need to work on is bringing in images and maybe film clips as well as audio. I&#8217;m guessing however that my skill and knowledge is still a long way off for this kind of stuff (since I still haven&#8217;t discovered the trick to the background image) and there is a need to accomplish something before moving on to the more elaborate manipulations.<\/p>\n<p>So maybe <em>Paths<\/em> is on the front burner for this week, with a good look at improving link relationships, discovering what impact if any that the different positions will have on the work, and of course, editing the text itself since I just can&#8217;t help myself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"drop\">O<\/span>nce I was placed on the right trail by a friend, I&#8217;ve been able to work some of my wants and needs into the process of exporting a hypertext written in Storyspace into html with css that for the most part covers all bases&#8211;at least of the necessity element.
