Hey guys, if you remember ages and ages ago, I posted in my journal that I would make a website about mapping. And so I did, but, this website contains more than just my maps or tutorials, it's got it's own forum and a nice place for RiseOfTheDead (my up-coming mod).
Check it out at:

www.whatsnew.hosthour.com

What needs to be added:
A domain name COMING SOON

EDIT: You will have to click index.htm after you clicked the link, I will get it sorted.

The website is not complete yet, but will be soon. Hope you like it!

Rename Index.htm to index.htm. That'll fix your problem ;)

whatsnew.co.uk is already owned, I seriously doubt you'd ever get it, unless you have like ?10,000 to fork out. :)

Crap. I can get it from 123-reg.co.uk for something like ?2 if it was free...
I'll try wn.co.uk

EDIT: wn.co.uk is free, but I don't like how it sounds, ummm... I'll try Wnew.co.uk

URG! I am sooo pissed off with DreamWeaver at the moment. Anyway I totally redesigned the site, and GUESS WHAT HAPPEND?! Everything in DreamWeaver looks fine, but when you load it up in FireFox or IE everything is just wrong?! Well, to see what I mean, Have a look at the website, Have a look at EVERYPAGE and you'll see.

We now Have a Flash Movie intro, check it out:

www.whatsnew.hosthour.com

It was created by me! MelonGuy is a friend of mine who helps with the site.

PS. IT MAY APPEAR WHITE WHEN YOU GO ONTO THE INDEX PAGE BUT I HAVE NOT GOT A LOADING BAR YET SO IT'LL JUT BE WHITE. BUT IF YOU RIGHT CLICK IN THAT BIG SPACE ABOVE THE WRITING IT SHOULD SAY MOVIE NOT LOADED YET. LOADING BAR COMMING SOON IT DOES WORK!!!!

PS. Is there anyway you can fix the white bits on the main news page?

it should say "CONTAINS" and "and a forum where" and remove the "and"
Posted 19 years ago2005-08-01 16:07:13 UTC Post #125182
it's now corrected :D.
it's got it's own HTML editor on the site so I can change the news from where ever i am. Cool!

k guys check this out:

http://whatsnew.hosthour.com/movieswn.htm

We now have a page where you can view the latest trailors for comics, maps or mods. It has a little surprize where I know some of you will cry. :D

NOTE: Very important. It has no loading bar so it'll just appear white, but it is loading and it will work, just wait about 30 seconds...
Posted 19 years ago2005-08-05 13:12:12 UTC Post #126073
oh yeah, don't forget to comment
Posted 19 years ago2005-08-05 13:15:01 UTC Post #126076
Personally, I don't care for sites with flash intros or pages with just links to get into the site. I click on a link to get to the site. Then I have to click on a link to get to the site.. what's the point?

IMO
:roll:
Posted 19 years ago2005-08-05 13:22:34 UTC Post #126078
ummm...flash intros just tell you what the websites about, fine, I will remove the intro, Anyway...

I am not asking about the intro at the moment, it's about the trailor thing, you don't have to view the trailors, all there is is just a link on the news page. I made the trailors because of these reasons:

1) I need practise at Flash
2) People can listen to the music on the trailors...
3) If people see it, and like the looks of it, they will come back to the site later to check it out, and while they do that, more features are added so they can have more fun.

I will remove the intro okay... but I don't see why one little "enter site" button does any harm.
Posted 19 years ago2005-08-05 14:04:03 UTC Post #126094
I'm not saying it does harm. And certainly don't delete it just 'cuz I don't like it. I just said it's my personal preference. An extra click? I'm an old guy and may not be around that much longer. An extra click is milliseconds out of my life!

Hey, if you like it and it serves your purpose, that's cool.

You are doing a nice job with the site.
Posted 19 years ago2005-08-05 14:12:17 UTC Post #126098
Thank you, I think I took your first answer a bit too harshly, sorry... :(
But thank you for views and you are actually making me better at making websites, knowing what people don't like.

Hey people, if you like the idea of the intro, reply here, if not, reply here telling me your answer. Also tell me WHY.
Thx!
