Website Ponderances
Sep. 15th, 2008 08:41 amI had plans for revamping the Malgorian Dimension earlier in the year with php to make it easily updatable. just upload a few files and poof! the php will sort everything out on it's own. The earlier plans called for a complete revamp of the site but the layout of the site was getting hard to actually impliment.
So, I'm probably going to go over the older designs I have written up and see about converting the data portions to work with what's already on the site. Fairly easy and fairly simplistic.. I think. The site will end up eventually being a creative outlet for me. When I draw new comics or art, I'll post it there, if I write games, I'll post them there, if I actually start trying to do something with music (I've been tempted to dabble in console generated music on the 7800 - using a pokey-enabled cartridge for instance) then I'll post it there as well. Additionally any stories I'll write, including OW! related stuff, I'll add to it. How it'll end up, I'm not sure. The attempt might just fizzle again.
Another part that I'll be adding will be a "Games Completed" listing. I'll basically keep track of all the games I complete there on the main page. From there, if the php part gets done, I'll likely add review pages and the like. (I've filled Kane in on some of the planned ideas for it already. If I actually start making progress on it, I'll go into more detail here as well. ^^)
For current games, it's fairly easy to add most any game ot the list. as almost everything can be completed. I will however want to add favorites and the like from older consoles that aren't always completable. (most atari 2600 games for instance!) Oh well. Something to work on now that I've finished up most of the work with the Diamond Reach lua conversion I mentioned a few months back. Still got to finish the other area I have for Aardwolf on builders port, and I'll be working more on that, but I'll have some time for a while to dabble with php and the new website design's functionality/layout.
