July 28
We've obviously done a lot of work since the last update (June 5). The site was down for about a month and, as you can see, there is a completely new layout now. It's kind of cliched, but the "book" theme works well for an online RPG.
The site is designed to work around the banners and other junk Geocities loves throwing at people. The odd page size is meant to put the text (usually) where there is an empty space and away from an annoying banner. This does not always work, and is not true for all computers and screen resolutions. But, over-all, this should be a better and more readable design than what we were using before.
There are a few areas that still need work, and there are still some pages that we haven't changed to the new format. Expect more updates in the near-future, with this still being a work-in-progress.
Instead of message boards, we're now relying solely on chats. AOL Instant Messenger has replaced the boards, basically. This a whole lot easier to do, trust me. Also, the boards had been reduced to posting stuff we had RPed over AIM anyway. This was just a natural thing to do.
We already have some ideas for a Team Four, but that's still some months away. Team Three just came along, after all, so a fourth group of characters can wait. Hints to Team Four will be dropped on this site, specifically in comments and notes by "Anthony."
