Ok, i have been working on this today, and have the 'visitor' side all sorted now. The admin bits need to be finished, but thats not too important at the mo.

I now need to get content on it.

The main purpose of the site is to show off this communities site building talent, along with those people who are scarily good at flash :)

To start with I am gonna need sites that we can review, and then, reviewers to review those sites !!

If you have a site/flash-anim you would like reviewing, post here and tell me

If you would like to be a reviewer (limited numbers) alos post here and tell me

I should have the database side of things done by end of play today, which will mean we can start putting up reviews.

all those who are reviewers will get (if they want) yourname@wpwm.com

I will then, if anyone wants one give others email addys too, summink@wpwm.com for free.

I will also need people to help me with the site, maintenace etc. Ill also need some piccies done to dot around and make it look pretty. any helpers post too :)

Thats all for now,

well, its still under construction.

I'm willing to help. just give me a shout and i'll see. as long as we can make something nice of it.

But no reviewer. i'm dutch (belgium) and I am not good at writing reviews in dutch, so what would that give in english then...... :emb::emb::emb:

Actually... looking at how this thread has taken off... there was never this much interest when I was doing it...

I know it was updated very irregularly, but hardly anyone seemed interested - unlike now.

Is it meh? :bigcry:

Vampire
12-01-2001, 18:49
I don't think it was you. I think most peeps hardly knew it existed and didn't knew of the need after reviewers. thats all i think.

12-01-2001, 20:05
I would be interested in reviewing sites...

I am webmaster of http://www.tfc-league.co.uk, and I am currently working at my recently started design house at http://www.discowebdesign.com

I am an experienced PHP and ASP programmer, and also have an eye, (if not for creating, I leave that up to the graphic artists) good graphics and flash animations.

Would be happy to help.

SPAWNO
12-01-2001, 21:04
OK

Update on re-hosting !!

They have suggested I get a dedicated server. That means that I will need to resell some webspace in order to make it cost effective for me.

My apologies for treading on anyones toes, but will anyone be interested in me hosting a website for them

format would be

http://www.wpwm/com/yoursite

Bah - quit yer wingeing grumps... it just wasn't a very good site, thats why no one was interested :P

joeninety
13-01-2001, 11:46
Spawno was just wondering, if I was going to do a tutorial and stuff, have you set up some template etc, or like grumpy said for reviews is there some for of generator etc. cheers

SPAWNO
13-01-2001, 13:00
Joe m8,

I was doing the Article scripting last night. I should have it finished very soon. If you could do you tutorial in word for now, then as soon as I have input pages in place, either you or I could copy/paste into them :)


Also, on a sadder note, Sunday's launch date isnt going to be met. Even working till 3:30am last night didnt quite allow me to finish stuff off :cry:

So Ill have to postpone it for now, but only a few days. It has taken off quicker than I thought, and Im even being emailed review requests now :)

Hopefully this site is gonna be big. On the foundations of what I have already, me thinks the futures rosey

Well, thats it for now. Im off for a days break, playing HL all day on a m8s LAN :E

- Spawno

joeninety
13-01-2001, 13:05
Should I lay up the tutorial as I want it or just write it and then you lay it up, with any pics I supply etc?

Also on another note, do you need to have the entrance page as it isn't really offering much other than just an enter button, is it gonna just be that or gonna flash it? as it is an extra click etc. to get to the main page and as my web authoring lecture says if someone doesn't like your site after 15 secs, then they will leave, or something to that affect [could not actually remembering have anything to do with my bad marks :)]

enjoy the lan

I would just like to congratulate Spawno for all that he has achived so far with this site. Being a reviewer for the site I can see just how much work he has done with all the ASP scripting and the Database.

When everything behind the scences is done is should be awesome :)

13-01-2001, 16:57
RAAAAAAAH you will all ph34r me for being the original brains behind the plan ( altho grump would argue otherwise :E ) and any profit made off any of the websites would be used to buy me a large throne and a slice of cake.
oh and some stilton, well matured.

I'm very interested in this project. I have oodles of experience in graphic production for the internet, and know what I'm looking at when I see a Flash animation. I also wubs knocking out bitmapped graphics using Fireworks and indulge in a bit of the old 3D modelling from time to time.

As such, I'd like to be a reviewer for this site. I can provide detailed analysis of swfs taking into consideration the aesthetic, practical and technical merit of output.

I can also help people with difficulties they are having and point them in the direction of the right sources for guidance where I can't help.

Get in touch if you're interested, you know you want to :D

Spiketooth m8, I will let you know about doing some reviews for me. Flash reviews are a bit light at the moment tho. I already have one guy doing them for me.

I think ill be getting some in soon tho. I have ICQ'd you, and will let you know when I get flash stuff in
