Forinec Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 I got THIS idea from the "Admins,Plz Read" thread. I'm currently building a site similar to JKII.net, and it will of course be hosted by it. I want it to basically be an expansion to jkii, focusing on LucasArts. For instance, you could go to one link that completely covers X-Wing Alliance or any other Star Wars Space Sim, or you could go to a link that is full of JKII stuff. This battle station will be fully operational soon, but I'm gonna need some help.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forinec Posted September 2, 2002 Author Share Posted September 2, 2002 Uh... could any of you give me some ideas.... The logo is basically complete, and the name is decided, but a site with nothing but a homepage is boring. There'll be a database section, a link to Lucasforums, hints and tips, new .GIF's, suggestion board, (Hey, that's like this thread!). BTW, I'm going to need staff and admins.... or does jkii.net cover that, too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forinec Posted September 2, 2002 Author Share Posted September 2, 2002 Are any of you interested in having a new site like JKII.net? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kstar__2 Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 well, you see, there is alreade a jkii, so i don't think you must call it "a sort of jkii" but a "jedi outcast news site" but i don't think it will work, becouse we already have alot of jkii-newssites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forinec Posted September 2, 2002 Author Share Posted September 2, 2002 I want it to be more of a database than a news site. With little things off to the side like polls and announcements of new files. I don't really expect to make a site as good as jkii by myself, though. I'm using something called Claris Home Page 2.0. It's kind of old, but at least it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forinec Posted September 2, 2002 Author Share Posted September 2, 2002 Here's what I've done so far: The name is Blue-blade, inspired by my own computer's case designs. The logo, made with Web Painter 3.0 (old but completely efficient.) of a blue explosion with BLUE-BLADE in red in middle of it all. I thought that a little jingle of some sort would be interesting...... but "Because We Can" sounds like "Because I said so" and somebody probably already has that. Two links so far, of Games Featured in the site, and a Basics page telling about the site's purpose and the rules, things to expect, etc. Graphics include the logo, cool fiery blue lightsaber, and a red lightsaber. (For the two links) I'm not even half-way finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forinec Posted September 2, 2002 Author Share Posted September 2, 2002 I think that if we(me and anyone else working on it) e-mail it back and forth, making changes, and adding on, we will have it done in less than a year. I don't know how long it'll take. With school, things are going to be terribly slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forinec Posted September 3, 2002 Author Share Posted September 3, 2002 Update: Now I'm trying to change the background into several different colors instead of one. Would I have to make a custom background with shades of color where I want them??? Are there any admins out there who have a solution to my problems with making a site? Edit: Or maybe tips on making one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forinec Posted September 4, 2002 Author Share Posted September 4, 2002 I think I'll make it a place where you can post all your funny Star Wars related .gif's, screenies, and avatars, plus, if I can get the script, a new place to talk on forums and maybe have polls along the way. Short, simple, it'll do. Any more suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forinec Posted September 4, 2002 Author Share Posted September 4, 2002 Would you want one big homepage, loaded with pics and .gif's, or something with several links and rooms for different kinds of stuff? I think I'll make it to where it has more room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
