Should hopefully be up Saturday, but you know what my estimates are like :)

We're updating everything with a bunch of a new info we've received so expect every page to change along with a new layout. Some new content pages will be appearing as well.

If you want any nice features adding now is the time to speak.

read: Probably won't be up Saturday. Don't shout at me when it's not there. I didn't say which Saturday!
 
Thats fantastic! :D
Get a nice wallpaper archive going and i'l be happy. Is this new info from valve that we don't know or is it all the new stuff thats been collecting lately in news etc put up pernamently?
Good work Munro.
 
:afro:
:bounce: :bounce:

As long as it doesn't involve carrot-men, dogs, or orangutangs, I'm all for it.
And try to keep the same color scheme, too.

:thumbs: :thumbs:

Good work Munro.
We're definitely having a wallpaper archive, and providing people send us their wallpapers, we'll keep it updated!
 
We have around 30 wallpapers at the moment still looking for more...
 
stil no answer on what the "information" is about. LOL :frog:
 
To open the forum link in a new window, or not to open the forum link in a new window; That is the question.

Also, the colors that are being used right now are a bit.. dull. More life to the site. Im not asking for easterbunnehpink and yellow and all sorts of 'think-happy-thoughts'. but still. A new color-scheme would be nice.

Also, hmm. A [insert optional update here] would be nice. =)

take care of the children.
 
hmmm, gonna have to re-do the entire site now seeing how we don't have bloody multiplayer.
 
i like the site as well, cant think of anything new, maybe moving the hl2 popular features box down below the news items, and maybe have only 3 news items for people on dial up, unless there are 5 or so major announcements in 1-4 days of each other, then it woukld make sence to have them all showing

We're thinking more of things on the main website, not the forums :)

Well, an entire gallery completely and utterly devoted to pictures of me would be kinda nice. Maybe throw in a nice rating and comment system also? It'll help improve the sites traffic and really put us on the web scene!
 
More boobs please.

kthx bye.

In addition to the staff pages have a page devoted to some of the more promonent members and posters would be kinda cool. (and funny) they could write i little bio or something with staff coments.
 
BIGGER MOD REVIEW SECTION :D
seriously this is the way forward, I was close to making my own site just for mod reviews however I dont know enough PHP to make it decent.

When HL2 is released (still could be some time) people are going to be wanting to keep up with the many mod releases, know whats good, and reviews with lots of screenshots to see before they download. Even though it will take a while for decent mods to be made smaller mods will be being released and I think this site would be a great place for people to keep up with them and list by ratings, recommendations, look at user comments on the mod. ect ect.

That's what www.hl2modcentral.com is for.
 
I can't speak for Munro but it's looking like another Lombardi :(
 
NEWS JUST IN:

HalfLife2.net reveals that it is run by the same persons responsible for Valve Software!

No. Shock. There. Then.

;)
 
Munro/Doug: "And I would've got away with it too, if it weren't for those meddling kids!"

:eek:
 
Aww, if it doesn't update today I'm going to miss it.
