Yes I know its taking longer than I had originally hoped, however, nearly everything has had to be changed in some way or other.
Anyway, this is a bare bones version of what it will be eventually be like. There is no database attached to this version, it is simply up to give access to the tutorials and various sprite resources and software links that were on the old site.
What is shown in the other sections is only example data or information showing roughly what each section will be containing.
A large majority of the site has been completed, but I need to wait for the entire site to be operational before getting a powerful enough server to cope with the demands upon it. (heh.. I also need to earn some money to go ahead and get that part set up).
For those of you who don't know the reasons why the old one got shut down rather abruptly (and I was more depressed about that than any of the members) was because of its rapid success. It was far exceeding allowed bandwidth, and the old database couldnt cope and was queueing queries and eating up server resources etc. It was receiving an average of about 20,000 page views per day, and in the last week it was up received over 1,000,000 hits, using about 15-20Gb of bandwidth.
It WILL return, and IS returning.. it's just that there is a hell of a lot to sort out with it.
Also, when it does return, it will have very close tie ins with RPGDX, bringing a coding community in touch with a pixelling community and hopefully allowing both to feed off each other. You will only need to join one or other of the sites, and you will automatically be a member of the other, with the same login details on both and so on.
Anyway, enough from me.. I still have loads of work left to do on it,
Zoggles.
