A GoI fan site for simple/organized info on events/clans!
« on: December 05, 2013, 06:10:33 pm »
So I've decided to create a site for GoI focused on giving event/clan recruiting info in a simple and organized fashion.

So for new users a place to find out about events and clans to join.

For older users it's a place to check out events as well as what streams/times it'll be happening. Whether you wanna watch or play in it I'll try to keep it updated with current events.

All of this is over at http://theharborside.webs.com/

The site is just starting out so any ideas/comments would be nice.
If you do enjoy please share with your friends!



Also, I understand people want a more steampunk title. x3 I'll try to get that soon.

Jacob,

  I would be exceedingly careful with my threats, if I were you.  Most humbly, is must be pointed out that an alliance between myself and Queen B'Elanna has been quietly in the works.

Much love,
 Adra

I am the Elder Pie, Devourer of World, I require the love of many hamsters and possibly kittens, preferably small white ones with pink little noses.

Oh, well then that is Splendid news! I am overjoyed and hope that the negotiations go smoothly! Perhaps you and I could rendezvous after the alliance has been made and discuss some very scintillating battle plans I have been drawing up - perhaps even test them out!:P

To the Uniped Creature Residing Above,

   I am very pleased to have received this epistle from you. I hope my response finds you adequate to discharge your duties.
If you are the 'Devourer of World' as you so claim - and this world is still standing; which did you eat? Mars? Epsilon-Chi-2744662.5.3.3? Was it tasty? Did you pay the service charge to the waiter?

   My dear legion of kittens would be happy to provide you love if you can prove to them that you are worth their abandonment of utter indifference. I trust that your credentials will be making their way, such that we can decide this for ourselves, in due course.

Sincerely,
Jacob Fii - Commodore to the Second Frigate Flotilla of the Fleet

Puppy,

  I must beg your forgiveness... This has gotten a bit off topic.  If we may please return to the original reason for the thread.

Much lovE,

To The Biped Creatures Residing Below,

I have eaten many worlds and many systems, the planetary systems of Gliese 667 C and Upsilon Andromedae are some of them, twas most delicious, though the waiter was a bit of a dunce, he received a tip nonetheless.

With Fire and Sword,
Piemanlives

On another note it's good to see we have a site for this, sometimes things buried, definitely good to see this.

Nice idea but the implementation needs a lot of work. Especially the design. I see at least 4 different fonts in use (more than 2 on a site is a bad idea). I see a lot of big font sizes and it's unclear of the layout in some areas.

Honestly though the worst part is it's hosted on "webs.com". I would invest in a proper domain name and hosting if you want (and you want everyone else) to take this project seriously.

Back when the old forums were still around, I decided to try starting a new community with a better forum. Maybe someday we can look at helping each other out with it: http://www.childrenoficarus.com/forums/index.php

With more support from the community, the site could be run with its own domain name - however at this present moment it isn't economically viable. Early teething problems are inevitable. That said, I really like the idea of this website and hope that it gets more recognition, allowing it to grow.

I have no money to spend but I'll look into switching fonts to be less random.

You can't afford $10 a year?
