@NeuralStunner: Oh, I didn't realize you were talking about the credits page on the website. I'm not sure how well up-to-date it'll be until the final project is out, unless Nostromo is good about keeping up with new members that come along (like mappers eventually).

So far, I've kept up-to-date with any changes or requests that have been made.
I've been rather busy lately. A friend of mine and I have started doing online CD sales. Here's a link to our storefront, if anyone is interested. We're selling mostly headbanger stuff right now. (yes, I know ...shameless plug).
....so I haven't been very active on the forums lately. However, I do drop by everyday to stay caught up so if there's any changes needed on the website, just let me know.
Finally, I've got an idea for a new Hacx website layout that I actually like. Since it's a site for game, I've focused more on just making it cool, than making a brilliant design.
I'm still thinking how to show the content. Your comments are most welcome

That's quite fantastic, if I may say so! Simple, but effective.
Sliced the layout, this a preview only - tell me if there's any problems, suggestions welcome too!

I think it's great. White-on-dark is a nice scheme.
Though I think a green theme (like Nostromo's Hacx page) might look a bit more distinctive than red (a popular color for DooM projects, which this ain't ).
Spoiler:
I just did a color swap with PSP7's channel mixer. Green = 50% Red, Red = 100% Green.

Sweet!
I'll post a link to it from the Hacx page for News and Updates.

Wait, it's not ready yet
Plus I'm sure that hosting it on dropbox won't work as a long term solution

Heh, heh, heh.
Actually it could, come to think of it. I have drop box. We could share a folder. You can make the pages, throw them in the drop box and I'll publish them.
In fact, I could put the whole Hacx website in the dropbox and you can update any pages you like. Wouldn't bother me any ...I rarely do any updates on it.

That's a great idea. I'll try to finish the CSS today and bring in all the content from the current site. I'll bring the Hacx 2 history page to the new layout and, of course, have the link to your page/doom projects intact. Actually I just share the Hacx 2.0 project dropbox folder and just have an folder for the site inside.
We might have more and more updates since I think the project slowly gains momentum.

Nice design. I like it.
If you need webspace for it, drop me note, i have a webserver with four domains, and could create an subdomain easily.

Didn't manage to get it all done today, but I've finished the site code-wise more or less, I'm filling it up with content. Should be less tedious to update now too (it's still html based)
Good news with the webspace, I'm now not sure where to host it now It's either you or Nostromo.

Well I already have an established site for Hacx and it's been there for over 10 years so we might as well keep it in place. I have 15 gigs of space on my account so we're not going to have a limitation problem.
I just got your E-mail. I'll be shared here momentarily.
My Dropbox is a paid account, so that's not a limitation either. Are you going to get maxed on yours?

Yeah, I think it will be the best solution.
No worries about dropbox too, I'm using only 10% of my space.

I just got a message from DropBox that they've doubled my storage space up to 109 GB. I don't know why but I know I'll never use that much remote storage in a lifetime.
On another note...
I've been rather busy lately so I haven't had a chance to transfer over the website to a DropBox folder. I'll do it as soon as I've had a chance to weed out all the orphan files ...some of which have been accumulating for 10+ years.
