I have my own server via hostmonster.com and could offer a basic Joomla site if you wished to register a domain through us. If you wish to spend money we can do a lot more than a basic joomla template and forum. Simple things are cheap, full custom graphics with shockwave or what ever gets more expensive ofc if you supply your own artwork, and dont want crazy exotic we can likely do what you like for about $100. An advantage I can see for having your own site, is you can post any pictures you like and you can have a directory set aside as a file repository. (zips of art, tool proggies, misc) examples of our work: www.swflreorealty.com/www.floridadefenseforces.org/www.lehighshopping.com/AllFaiths/www.lehighshopping.com/cashretirenow/ (yes we made the video) www.5thwar.com/(btw if you shop, a basic joomla site retails for about $500 just to start ) edit: Yes, Im offering this as a massive discount(free) off of our normal rates because I want to support this project. We can also host you via a subdomain like All Faiths or cashretirenow but imo thatd look really odd. Your call tho

It has been one of the things I have been thinking about. But I really don't want to get stuck updating a website if it steals time from actually adding stuff to the game. Those are some very interesting sites you posted. Daisy

The beauty of joomla is that updates to say news or a blog(they have plugins for a blog) are literally a matter of goin in the back end admin log in and editing a text file like you would in word pad. We could walk you through the complicated stuff or you could assign an admin we could teach but joomla is a content management system designed to be largely user friendly. The only person that can do catastrophic damage to a site is the super admin, which is usually the webmaster that makes it Offer isnt gonna expire soon so mull it over. We could perhaps try one on a trail basis and if ya dont like, we can delete it all. no harm done

I realize you are likely focused on finalizing everything for the release but was wondering if perhaps itd be of use if I set up a temp site via subdomain and gave you admin access so you could fiddle with everything? I was also thinking of one other potential perk for you and your staff in this. We can set up a directory and give you a password restricted FTP accessable area for any/all files you want to share among just the staff. The svn has its place but Im sure there are times you just want to upload something so people can grab it quickly. For me, I prefer just uploading to my own site in a sub-dir than tryin to bother with megaupload etc. This approach also eliminates a need to break it into 200mb chunks

I would be willing to give it a try as something to play with if your willing to set it up.

Taking longer than expected because its been a while since we've done a site and since my roomate loves the creation process he has decided to try to make an otherworld banner using your celtic knot and font...and just generally do the site right lol Hes not an artist in the sense that ZP is but he does do some impressive shit with logos, banners, simple gfx, and car detailing and hes one of those that loves the process of making something. Should be up tho before sunrise on easter(as determined but those of us on the east coast US)

ok wow....Joomla 1.6 is a cocksucker....We're going to be deleting the site and remaking it using Joomla 1.5 one that actually WORKS with every plug-in we have and isnt a buggy lil bitch
-------- Edit: Site is back up, same addy. New banner as well using a Dyson Sphere (damn its hard to find decent images of those)
