Hello, all.  I'll be managing the Shack from here on in.  File submissions will resume as soon as I wade through the PHP (heh...).

Speaking of, should I redesign the site?  Spyder thinks it has sentimental value... but I personally think the design's a little cramped.  If I do redo it, I'd probably make a simple HTML version and accept submissions via email.

i think you shouold redesign only the organization or the front page... take out a few unimportant things... move the sections and stuff...make it less cramped and more easy to get around on the site (not that its hard now)

oh yeah, xorlak, do you no where i can learn html,php, java...something that i could use to make my site better?

my brothers not a ninja  :ph34r:

It probably does have sentimental value to people who have been in the community longer thatn me. I suggest that you keep the basic design almost the same, just make it less cramped and nicer to look at.

I believe that the shack will become even better, because it now has competition from the TKZone. With these two resou8rce sites people should be able to find everything they want, especially if there is a little friendly rivalry.

It might be great, and having two resource sites going to greater and greater heights then more people might choose the toolkit and join the community. And even if it does not do that, well, a little competition cannot be a bad thing...

To be honest, I don't think you should redesign it. It's a design everyone is used to and it's perfectly alright as it is.

Just so you know, I coded the PHP behind the shack with Mike, so if you need help, talk to me on msn or aim or something. (AIM: DanC2k3, MSN: i'll give if asked, but not on here.)

In my opinion the Dark Age site has a better layout then the RPGCode Shack. Anyway, the layout at the shack makes me confused, well more confused than normal.

Thanks.  I've been looking at the code and I think I'm getting the gist of it.  I'll send you an email if I get stuck (don't have MSN, or AIM...)

What's wrong with the iframes?  Or are you just one of those anti-framists? (Heh...)

The layout is a bit claustrophobic. And there is a lot of space that could be used but is not.
