Guild Wars - How to get into the Alpha

I just checked my logs and see nothing about that. The only thing I saw was that you were looking into other "content management systems". I didn't know you were going to try and make your own!

Yeah read down the logs from there when I talked about learning PHP might not have stated that exactly in that way but that is what I meant. If I ever get off my ass and get back to it heh.

Alright, I bought a host that will give me 2 GB of storage and 60 GB of transfer, I'll hopefully be purchasing the domain itself within a few days. It has begun! So, now, anyone able to make a layout, doesn't have to be anything fancy but just something nice and clean..

by **Monster** on Thu Jul 22, 2004 12:26 pm

We could use another content management thing like PHPNuke (only NOT PHPNuke). Otherwise it's best to decide what all we want to have on the page before making a layout. I'll try to come up with something nice. We may also want to contact Kelek (The General) on ICQ (77233374) as he does this kinda stuff for a living, and I'm sure he's interested in GW.

BTW how much does that cost monthly? Bluehost is 6.95/mo and that includes the domain. It only has a mere 1GB storage and 50GB transfer though. Plus I just saw that you can host 26 domains per account.

www.ace-host.net

54.95 for 12 months. It claimed the special ended last night but it seems to still be up today.

by **Monster** on Thu Jul 22, 2004 1:03 pm

Ah, so it's 4.58 a month basically. Wow, it even offers unlimited subdomains versus Bluehost's 20.

by **DarkViruz** on Thu Jul 22, 2004 2:29 pm

I think that might be a bit of an ad swerve. I'm fairly sure each subdomain costs 2$. I could be wrong though.

by **Monster** on Thu Jul 22, 2004 3:59 pm

Hmm, that would be very lame.

I haven't ordered a domain yet, but for now you can view the GW site through www.jabussucks.com

They layout is only temp. I really rather have a sleeker looking site, but I have that set up just in case. Anyone want to do a layout, or perhaps tamper with this one to make it way cooler?

by **Monster** on Fri Jul 23, 2004 11:58 am

Not a bad layout. Was all the stuff you used included with the account? Did you make that logo, or did you just paste "Tactics" on top of it with an Unreal font?

by **DarkViruz** on Fri Jul 23, 2004 12:16 pm

I didn't make it, some guy I know on aim just through a quickie together. Im fairly sure he didn't just paste unreal font over it. The layout is generated on something called 'GeekLog' I just decided to manually change most of it to red. Still I'd rather something cooler then this.

by **DarkViruz** on Fri Jul 23, 2004 1:17 pm

I've also gone ahead and ordered www.GWTactics.com Give it about 24 hours to start working.

by **Hado** on Fri Jul 23, 2004 5:12 pm

I messaged Kelek and he said he'd love to help out.
Maybe you can give him access?

Anyway the irc channel is on irc.gamesurge.net
