sisko, I'm about to upload the two wallpaper .zips to our Downloads section for linking.  I should fix up collages of wallpapers thumbnails to display with them, shouldn't I?

that's a good idea

[Buster's Uncle]

I've posted the wallpaper .zips and updated the subpages.

Do we have those 2.0 patches for me to link on the main Downloads page as I update it?

Not that I'm going to get away with this without having several needed changes pointed out, but I'm now down to working out the Technology sub-pages and redoing the Links page shy of being finished!!!

Check this out http://alphacentauri2.info/official/Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri.htm and do me the favor of testing links and commenting on everything in general.  I want to get this sucker really right - it's been too much work (done little else for over a week, now) to leave it done other than right.

Keep up the good work.

Let me know if you need a hand with anything. I know that I spent like, 5 or 6 hours on my own website yesterday. :S

(offtopic: I prefer to as the : D smiley...)

[Buster's Uncle]

Neither smilie is quite what I hope we end up with, but time will tell.  I have some slight expertise in the area, you know, but not infinite time to do all things at once.  We ARE going to be having a look at them, I assure you.

If you were to go have a look at what I'm up against with those little tech sub-pages and express opinions about what/how to do, I would be grateful...

[Buster's Uncle]

-Also, bump.

[Kilkakon]

Oh I will. I've flagged it attention sometime today.

[Buster's Uncle]

I only just now checked if the graphic novel exerpt linked at the bottom of the Story page works.  It does not.

I'm in over my head about how to fix that...

[Kilkakon]

Okay, so the rollovers, the technologies, and graphic novel?

[Buster's Uncle]

Rollovers as in the buttons higlighting when mouseovered?  Put that last - I need to do something about the tech mini-pages first.

[Kilkakon]

Do you want the technology links to go into a new window?

[Buster's Uncle]

I don't feel strongly about it - I've taken the odd liberty with altering things in the pages, but being as faithful to the original as is feasible would be best...

[Kilkakon]

The simplest option is to get rid of the popup window, if you prefer, and have copies of the tabular layout with the content pasted in...
