This was a free website I found to help our large 20 person corp, coordinate invades, chat, etc...
Took all of a few hours to get it up and running. There are limitations of course, but great tool for free and seeing how easy it is to use...

BTW we never really used it.. just screwed around w/ it.

I will keep you guys posted on whats happening with the website.

sincerly,

Drey


Ventrilo Hostname: vent28.light-speed.com

port number 5151

Well I got ideas for ur fan website.


1: make a link to this forum.
2: Take all the screen shots pictures and pictures of peoples faces from the forums and organize it, same with the videos.
3. Advertise it with the facebook advertising feature.
4. Try to upload a video tutorial or write a tutorial from the fourm and organize/update it.
5. Layouts names and right placements, and organize it.
6. Take all the peoples ideas from old to new and organize it because people keep posting same ideas.
7. Maybe some kind of Challenges for 1 v 1 or post the new current wars that are happening.
8. hire nine breaker to do a pod cast/ or someone else.
Thanks for your ideas I appreciate it alot.

I used to have tons of screenshots to be used for a better tutorial but I found I lacked the skills to put the tutorial together. My old computer crashed and had to be wiped, but I spent no less than 30 hours compiling information to be included in a more comprehensive tutorial.

I wanted it to be more of a video, but I have NO CLUE how to put that together. I have no real computer skills to speak of and now all the starpedia and screenshots I had are gone. I'd have to start back at the beginning.

If you ever want to make a video again, contact me. You wouldn't be the first one I learn the *cough* intricacies of Windows Movie Maker.

You need no computer skills to use that program.
