Finally another update. Sadly no new writing. My muse has been comatose for many months now. But I've done a lot to the website. Mostly on the coding side so most people will only notice slight changes. Totally changed the dictionary set up. That search script was just too buggy. This one works much better. Everything is finally working the way I want it to. Which means as soon as I get everything written we'll finally be able to open for business. Hurrah! And Happy New Year, by the way.

Several new shiny features to look at. For one, I added the cbox to the website (notice the nifty image on the menu.) I created an encyclopedia with categories where all our information will be stored. With the help of a friend of mine I created a search engine for quick answers/definitions. I've also added more to the meta-physics on the Summary. So enjoy, those of you who check. Maybe someday we'll actually open.

Take a look at the dictionary. I found a nifty javascript from Dynamic Drive. The dictionary/glossary is now broken down into letters, which expand into the words, which expand into the definitions/entries. It should keep things alot smaller and easier to navigate as the dictionary gets larger. If you'll notice, I've also changed the nation names. Siitori has become Siymeha, Athwa has become Ush'en, and Shunju has become Shanjju. I'm alot more comfortable with the new names.

Well, it took alot of grunt work with the codes, but I've finally gotten everything perfect. Everything validates as xhtml, even the forum. (Which was a much bigger mess than the website.) But all the codes are right, all the depricated codes are gone, everything is fixed and dandy. Now... if I could just finish writing...

This is basically a bogus entry, because the pages with no content stretch out and look weird. So, I'm adding this to make the page look right. I do have some news. I added a "Start here" summary for people who are interested in the type of game, but want more information on the setting without having to dig through all the reference material. The link can be found at the bottom of the welcome page. I've slightly changed the layout, moving all the main links up to the top. Makes things a little neater I think and helps blend better with the message board. There's also a new nation link, Aereste, which is currently being built by my friend Rafe. So you can all look forward to that. Whenever we get around to opening...Now, let's see if this post is long enough to fix the stretching...

Wow. Alot has changed now. As you can probably tell we have a completely different template and a shiny new banner thanks to Tamris from Terrawin.net. Because let's face it, I may know how to code, but that doesn't mean I know how to design a website. This layout is alot easier to deal with, it looks alot nicer, and it blends well with the template for the forums. So unless I change my mind again in a few months, this is our new layout! Thanks again to Tam. I bow to your awesomeness.
