New Site: Civer - give it time to grow!

[FrostyBoy]

Hi! Thanks all!

The graphics are mine, still a lot more to do yet tho!

Links don't work I know, but they will in the next few days.

I understand what you mean about the javascript, I didn't find it slow myself, are you having slow downs because of it? It's only there as an added feature, not an important part of the website, it's there in case something on the newsticker catches your interest, I'm not expecting people to sit there and wait. =o)

Thanks for the shot JellyDonut, I needed to see that, I have access to a mac so I can fix it on there.

It's probably running slow for you because a whole bunch of people just viewed the site at once, I never had any problems with it before, then again I don't really know. =o)

How much time I already know html? I don't really understand what you said, but if it's what I think you're saying, umm. I have known html for about 4 or 5 years now. LOL I hope I don't sound like a dork now.

thanks all

[Black Fluffy Lion]

Works pretty fast for me. I am over a DSL line tough

[JellyDonut]

Hope the Fan Site Kit helps you out and good luck fixing the site!

At the top there are a few cryptic comments/broken links

'Purple flamingo...two apples....'

Is this some sort of in-joke?

yeah, i think it was jsut overloaded then. cause i am on a cable modem which d/l's about 364KBs on weekends and nearly 1/2 a Meg/sec during the week (i even beet the T1 from work sometimes )

dont worry...as the time goes one you'll get more of a constant humm of visitors rather than a big slam of everyone visiting at once.

That's nothing, Nemo. It goes wicked fast on my 21900 bps connection and sometimes thed ISP doesn't disconnect me until I've loaded most of the page!

geez man, what are you on? a T2 or T3...obviously not a residential connection?

[JellyDonut]

I have a 56K modem but none of the ISPs around here even support THAT, so I have to settle for a little less than 22K! Well it's what you get for living in the sticks...

lol...i miss read it. i was thinking 21900 Kbps which is like 2.7MBs ...opps

i feel for you ...i couldnt get more than 28k via modem before. so when i moved last...i based my move on who offered my cable modem services

good site

whatd you mean by 'news item before apolyton'

[JellyDonut]

I think that refers to the Australian magazine's preview of Civ III which hasn't made the news on Apolyton or CivFanatics yet...
