Hey there.
As for the website. I wouldnt go asking for comments on it untill you get a web designer in. Im sure you could shave a few hundred quid of that 25 grand budget of yours to pay someone to make it look half decent. Colour text on a black back ground does not a great website make. No matter how many EVIL NUNS TRUMPS you have on there. Content is one thing but it aint worth a penny if people are too bored to stay and read.
Despin out.

Despin, im not asking for comments on it you can have one of mikers Duh! for that
still got a long way to go on getting context ready before pulling in a designer
Duh !

the guys a film maker, not a webdesigner - why should he 'shave a few hundred quid off his budget' that could go into making the film?
------------------
thanks wageslave,
?200 goes a long way, that amount would basicly feed my cast and crew on location for two days, or it is the cost of 4 days camerea hire, or it is 14 Nuns Habits or it is the location cost of a Bar scene were shooting very shortly.
For the record there is a website designer taking over the site once im happy the context is heading in the right direction and he only costs a few pints of beer ! bargain.

Hey there.
Wageslave PULL YOUR TONGUE OUT OF HIS ARSE. Go wash your face and stop making a fool of your self.
I know hes not a web designer thats why I said to get one.
"Despin, im not asking for comments on it"
"has anyone got in the offline or tempoary internet folder the guest book from my site ? if not i could do with a few entrys being added"
Erm... ok then

Right, calm down would you. The lot of you.
Chance, your web site does need some work to take it away from that "kiddies homepage" or "made in 20 minutes" look.
Despin, he doesn't need a web designer to go over the site tho. Someone here im sure could make Chance a perfectly adequete and more professional looking site for free.
wageslave, you had some valid points. But don't use the f word http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif
:P

Hey there.
The thread evolved man get over it. It started with your original question (I know nobody has helped yet and it can be annoying) but it moved on to the fact that your site looks lame. We didnt know you had some alcaholic web worrior waiting in the wings to knock it into shape. A few times you have asked us to have a goosy at your site and I just assumed your were gonna be the designer.
Now as the other guy said. When people look at the site they are gonna look at the crapy design and think "well if this is all he can do on a web site. I aint got much hope for the finished movie."
Now I have no experiance of film making with a budget like yours. But I just thought out of 25 grand you would wanna put a few quid into good promotion of your work. Of course when I said what I said I didnt know about you were just waiting untill you were "happy with the context". How could I? I assumed this was gonna be the look of the site half finished or not.
Now for you to go off on one moaning about communication skills.
I just find it funny.
Despin out.

Despin word of advice for you oon your filmmaking journey never ever make pesumptions or assumtions http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif, make pesumptions and you'll end up wondering why your spark hasnt turned up on set.

hey, a big greasy argument and I didn't start it!!! first!!
------------------
I think it's a case of if you don't want opinions, why did you turn to a public forum on the internet?
Yes, it is in English that you said you had a webdesigner friend coming. Read my post and tell me where I acted like I didn't understand that. My post was directed at wageslave, who seemed to have a great personal problem with someone suggesting you snazz up your site. He said "He's a filmmaker not a webdesigner!" as if the two were somehow mutually exclusive. I merely tried to make the point they were not, because I myself can do both. I don't see why you got so personally upset I was correcting someone who was clearly not you, as I used wageslave's name twice.
------------------
Chance is most unused to criticism on this board...he takes it even worse than I do. Incidentllay Chance your site looks appalling http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
------------------
How many bones has a body got? A child's got more bones than a grown ups got. And that's a natural law!
Mods, he didn't have a point. That 200 quid would be an investment, because when I look at a site like that I assume the film will be of the same caliber. In this 'net marketing age, you have to have just as professional a site as you do a movie, or no one will take you seriously.
And for the record, I'm a filmmaker AND a webdesigner, wageslave, so it's not so far fetched.

Davis, your a film maker and website designer ? what do you want a medal ? i on the other hand are not
And on this subject of people not reading,
My original question was did anyone in there off line folder or tempoarty internet files have a cached version of my guest book reason being i acidently deleted the one on the site and there were a couple of comments in there which i would like to have recovered.
IS THAT NOT IN ENGLISH ?
Wageslave is right ?200 would be a waste to spend out of the budget and if you read down i mention that a website designer is taking over once i have the context heading in the right direction and he only cost a few beers.
at the moment im not happy with the context but when i am then ill pull in the designer
IS that again not in english ?
Jeez

chill out guys.
I dont know about you, but if I went to the trouble of scrounging a budget of 25 grand together to make a film I wouldnt spend a penny of it on a flippin' (is that ok? http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif ) website until the film was finished.
------------------
oh and Davis - I have great respect for webdesigners thats a good site you link to.
But there is no point promoting something that isnt finished. I call that wishful thinking self delusion and leave it to Salesmen.

No kiddin'. Who else is here? http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
Wageslave, I can completely understand that opinion, and I misunderstood your point. I thought you meant he shouldn't even bother to ever get a good site, even down the line.
------------------
You pleased to hear that im nearly happy with the direction of the context the site is going .
Before handing it over to the designer heres what Im adding
Bit more on the Legend of Mortus Illumina including a couple of short storys one which is really cewl bout an Archaeolgist and the gateway from our world to Deadlights
To the Film Section.
A Few lines on Each characters and a wee bit about the Setting
Also a Section about the concept picutures (check them out from the links to all 5YLAC Photos)
To the Makign of section
Part 3 of the making of (part 2 was a bit to short in my opinion)
A massive 8 page article bout script writing (also have a cewl article drafted entitled Producer Boot Camp which is going up in a few weeks)
Plus Population the download section with Script Example, Templates, a few of the early production documentation used on MI.
A New up To date about 5YLAC Section
4 More interviews to the Interview section including one with myself
The First "Genuine" Evil Nun Sighting Photo is also being added to evil Nuns corner
How to Make A wimple is being added (my party trick and damm useful you;ll find all in pictures too!)
Press Release and Are latest crew and casting doobrie going up.
On the Design side, on paper we have a look and colour skeem for the site sorted plus in a secret location on the world wib web is tons of examples and Tests for DHTML coding for the site (cewl sliding menu;s and appearing /disapearing evil nuns!) plus worked out how were going to set up the navigation. Also the site is meant to use the OverExposed font were either going to do one of two things embed the font in the site so youll get to see it or for machiens without this font flip to Garamound. (20 meg download for the tools to do the embedding stuff which is a bit pants) plus a few flash games are planned for the site (BAsh that Nun, Flash that Nun and Sister Wendy says !*"?$?.
All the context stuff should be there by year end and the design stuff will get underway in January.
so watch that space
