I have a sever on AWS EC2’s free teir. I would need to move it to a paid teir to support more than a handful of players. Not sure how much it would cost sadly.

New hosts are cheaper (student discounts ) and have a better platform (choice between PHP 5.3 or 5.2, SSH Access, etc).

The BBCode on the test page doesn’t work here :3

Explain?

Just manually type in some code like

[b]bold[/b]

and click parse.

question for vusys: how much does hosting this website cost?

$75USD/ year~

also, i have something to add.
the most depressing part about this site is that it’s so well-made but devoid of life.
if it was a shitty looking site I wouldn’t care as much, but the graphics and site in general look really nice and sleek. it’s a darn shame.

haha okay I feel a bit better then.
I thought you were paying big bucks for the site. $75 a year is literally nothing.

I am a poor university student. I live off own brand soup and slightly stale bread.

Deja Vu.

Please go ahead if you wish, I certainly don’t mind. More integration would make a partnership look a little better. Not really sure what though. We used to have a forum subsection for VuMS back in the day. But using a bespoke CMS, it would be pretty hard for me to host your forums though. Maybe host announcements here – I could make you some Javascript to place VuTales blogs on 3rd party sites.

Either way, a link would be nice. I would just like to do more to make it a fair exchange.

Vusys said: It should be a style not a script as the delay for it to be applied is too jarring. Scripts that supplement a style are ok only if there’s things that can’t be done in pure CSS.

Get('ul')[0].removeChild(Get('.MenuItem')[4]) // come on, no one reads the qotw

This is really fragile and doesn’t work as intended for mods/ admins.

okay, say that I write it as a css style: I would have to inject it using js. same problem.

Use Stylish for Firefox or Chrome.

Opera has some sort of limited support too IIRC.

I was hoping it was a CSS skin until I saw the lipsum filler text. 🙁

TF2 is “free” but Valve is doing its very best NEXON impression and driving it into the ground. TF2 is basically an advertising billboard now complete with buggy updates and botched promotions.

One thing, though. I don’t have Photoshop. Any way you could give me a .pdn version, or export each layer as a .png?

Tried making this out of the .png. Veteran’s day, perhaps? (kind of crappy though ;D)

Download the zip again. The background is just for previews, since an all white logo is impossible to see most places. Obviously don’t include it in any logos for use

Edited: Tweaked a few things, download again please.

Four things:

1) redd.it is a url shortener (used by reddit) already. So the name’s gotta go.

2) The design is really nice, I would quite like the rest of the site in this style.

3) Is the git repo public anywhere?

4) Windows XP? Luna?
