Wow, I just registered. Very nice. I can't wait til it's up and running.

Do you guys need people to write reviews or update the news? I can help you guys out if you want, as I have nothing better to do.

What is that supposed to mean? Like Wingznut said, I nor anyone else is making money off this. In fact, a couple of us have already put in money on this with expectations of return.

Yes and yes 😀. There are two links in the left menu to where you can submit reviews and submit news. Do either. If your news and reviews are written well enough, I will add them to the page. I invite anyone to add to the content of the site.

Great to hear. Many have said they will start writing reviews, but I have yet to see any 🙁 😛
 
If the need arises, I might be able to help edit, but I'm not sure that my writing skills will be particularly useful, since the newest game I've played recently is CS 1.6. 😉

What skills do you have? Any web-based knowledge, such as php and mysql?

Rob is very skilled, since this is a volunteer project I think it's more of an issue of his available time.

If we can get Rob to help with some of the HTML, PHPNuke skinning, PHP, MySQL that would be awesome.

Well Entity (Rob), if you ever have some time, I'd like to chat with you about something I have in mind. Maybe we can see if it can be done without too much trouble. Do you use AIM or MSN?

I certainly don't want to bother you too much.
 
My SN is entityat on AIM. I just reformatted, so I don't have software installed right now, but I'll get it soon. 😉

Is there a reason you decided on PHPNuke? I don't know much about skinning it (I've used PostNuke, which had been more secure), but I've heard there are much better CMS systems available.

Take a look at a TON of CMS systems.

Ya, Ross pointed me toward that site, but I ultimately stuck with phpNuke. Reason? I'm much more familiar with it, and decided to stick with something I knew. Plus, it suits our needs fine. Unfortunately, if you have any other CMS's to recommend, I've got way too much invested in phpNuke right now to switch.

As for skinning, don't worry about that. There are many skins out there as it is if we decide to switch to something else in the future. The main thing I'm worried about right now is some php coding and mysql database.

If you have any graphical skills or web development skills in php or mysql, holler at me 😀.

I'm still trying to get ahold of Entity, but he's elusive 😉 😛.

It's only been a few days... 🙂

 
The site is as complete as I want it to be, except for one thing. We need some graphical minded people to help design a logo! I've asked for this, but no one has responded, so I'm giving it one last go. The site needs an official logo, and I do not have the skills or creativeness to design it.

Here's what I'm looking for to put on the front page:

A graphic that is 223 pixels x 69 pixels in size. This will replace the standard logo graphic in the upper left of the page. This space will be for the logo.

Another graphic that will be 473 pixels x 88 pixels in size. This will replace the logo in the upper right of the page where it says "future of the web..../content/quality/etc." This logo will need to be in some kind of game-related theme.

I'd like to thank anyone who can lend a hand. Please contact me in this thread, PM on this site, PM on atgamers.com, or by email to atgamers@atgamers.com. Thank you!
