Er, wow...heheh, I didn't know the site really got any attention, it's nice to see that some people do care for it. I really have been bogged down with so many other things that I haven't had much time to update anything, even my own personal site, so the Psychonauts one has gone somewhat neglected. I hadn't even posted on this board in so long, my account was deleted, heh.

But yes...if anybody would like to take over, feel free. Like I said, I can zip the files and get them to anyone who would like them, the design is free for you to use as well, there's no need to change the template (unless of course you'd like to; it's a very basic design, so it could use something more interesting-looking ^^; ).

Anyway, thanks to all of you who have offered to help out, I have a ton of the files that just need hosting, etc. so if you'd like to keep the site up, I can get sound files, images, and more to you. I don't have written content like walkthroughs and characters though.

I'm always willing to help with the written info, since that's probably all I can do. Or post pictures...

I guess. Maybe.

And the background is awesome, so that stays. Hopefully.

Hmm, I'm trying to think of why I'm qualified to be a part of this project.

I dream in HTML twice. XHTML once.

Now that I've calmed down a little, I'm ready to discussion. Would you guys like to have it hosted by pfenix.net? I have plenty of space and bandwith (I think) and I can give all of you access to the FTP account. I'm pretty good with updating fanthings--I have 2 fanlisting, 1 hatelisting and 1 clique. I'm also a nerd.

Sure pfenix.net. However I would like the original layout to be preserved. Will it do that?

If you guys need any help with coding (especially fics...get enough of those and that can get to be a pain), let me know--school's still routinely kicking me in the butt, but I'd be willing to code/format fics and the like if you need an extra hand.

(And I'd link to my site to show off my l33t HTML skillz, but I haven't updated it in a year because I got reeeally tired of coding everything by hand. Must...buy...Dreamweaver...!)

"It" can do anything I want it to. It's my domain! Rawr! (By that I mean, yes, I will preserve it if you wish.) I was thinking, however, that we could change the font?

The name would be... oh, I don't know. http://____.pfenix.net). What should be in the blank?

And second of all, who should have access to the FTP? These people will have direct access to the website. And... are we staff of Whispering Rock now?

Yes we are staff. I'm adding the staff as we go.

I say Whispering Rock for the blank.

I was thinking of that too, King Cheez. Wordpress, anyone? ::grin::

Except I haven't tried to learn Wordpress themes. But with this kind of motivation, I'm quite sure I will do so.

Or if someone has an alternative. Whee.

Anyone interested in converting the website into validated XHTML and CSS? Just to keep up with the times...

I'm not sure how staff is going to work. I think Klia, since she is the one who emailed the original webmistress, is in charge of all that. I'm planning on nominating myself a coder/general contributer. :P

But even if you don't know HTML, you could still be a staff member by submitting artwork, information, etc--maybe running fanart sections or whatever. Ask Miss Klia. She is all-knowing.

I am an entity. Really I know nothing here. This XHTML and such is confusing me.

Yes you will be my general coder, as well as Kingcheez. Tyraa will be in charge of coding fan submissions.

I think I'll put Squid in charge of the character profiles and aliiespixie I'll have to ask.

The Klia! I like that.

Besides coding, I'll be happy to be put in charge of anything else. Uploading, organizing, whatever. I could start a new Psychonauts file and start making a walkthrough.

Won't it be fun to have a staff page? With profiles for each of us?
