by Eclipse
 
Yes, the site is alive,it's just been hibernating as I have been busy. Hopefully now I can start work on it again a bit more. I'll write a post soon saying what I plan to get done.

#6 - Release

by Eclipse
 
Well today is the official launch date, so I count this as the website's zeroth birthday :)
I'll assume that it will take a while to filter through to everyone, which gives me time to fix up the last few bugs and problems that I've spotted. If people have any comment or things that they want to see on the website please post it in the forums.

#5 - Pre-release

by Eclipse
 
Today I have sent invitations out the two largest corporations Axis & TBO to have a look around and spot any obvious bugs or flaws. This means the website is now fully operational for everyone who finds it. The official relelase should be withing the next couple of days pending any feedback I may recieve.
However I would like to remind everyone that the site is still new and still needs a lot of work, it feels rather square and boxy at the moment, something I plan to rectify as soon as possible. If you feel you can contribute with ideas or graphical ability please conatact me on the forums.

The corp area has now been finished, although it currently has no content. However as I have made it full integrated into the main database adding content is simple, and once text entries are added to the database the webpage is generated automatically. Apart from the top banner which at the moment is too small and slightly angular, the main webiste is done. The forum remains as a last challenge before I offically announce the site and invite people to sign up.
P.S. Forgot to mention the login window is still non-existant however it is low priority and I have no clue how to integrate it with the forum - if it wasn't such a massive undertaking I would consider writing by own forum but if I did that the site wouldn't be ready before Infinity is released :)

#3 - Server Info Up

by Eclipse
 
The server info page is now up. It has taken me several days to work out how to test the servers to find their online status but I finally managed it. My only clue was given to me by Choub - looking at his website I could see his system is php based, apart from this I had no idea where to start. Now I finally have a system that works I know just how annoying it is to do, and in a way I feel I must take my hat off to Choub for finding out the method in the first place. If anyone who is reading this thinks I ripped Choub's code off I can tell them they are wrong. You can't view php code as it runs on the webserver before being sent to a computer, the only clue you get is a .php extension at the end of the page url - this is all I had to go on.

The main page has been completed for the most part and I have created a forum. The rough forum (style) template is up but it needs alot more tweaking to get inline with the rest of the site. The forum itself needs completely setting (admin stuff) up and I still need to add all the catagories etc.

#1 - First Entry

by Eclipse
 
The main page is coming along well, it has been a big challenge so far - I am doing everything in Notepad++ to improve my html and css skills. Hopefully this page will be finished soon.
