Hi Roguey

I was wondering if you have some buttons of the site that can be displayed on other sites and leads here when you click them of course, do you have?

hi there,

erm... looking around my folders I dont see any buttons - im sure I made them when the site was running in the past. I could make something, or send you some images from the site which might be useful?

I been thinking about upgrading the site layout - so if it all changes, you'll know why Smile

Actually as you like, whatever you want, I just wanted the site to have it's own banners and buttons so that people can link the site with them, I want actually to put the C&C ammo button on my site, if you don't mind.. When you're done with them we can put them in new topic so that everyone can pick anyone they like or they can ask you to..

Upgrade... Great..

It's good but can you add some shadows, lights or any effect to the words?

I will add it to my site later when the new main page is done because I'm working on codes of the new main page of my site but it's still unfinished I will add the C&C Ammo button to it later when it's done..

I have some official patches how can I upload them to C&C Ammo?

Oh, and have you thought about the staff forum that I told you about few months ago?

hi there.. erm.. Im not sure I could host 'big' files - I guessing from past experience that EA files are massive (100Mb+). The reason for this is there are different kinds of webspace, which range from basic to complex.

The basic webspace is normally rather cheap (normally used to host files or HTML sites (often supplied by ISP's)). The other type being advanced (not really the correct word, cant think of the correct one) which allows code to run and to access databases. ie. dynamic pages etc. However because dynamic sites often use more server CPU, you pay more for the space. As you know too, there are no adverts on this site either! Big files can quickly increase my bandwidth usage, for example:

1 x 100Mb download = 5,000 webpages (of 20k each).

I bet you seen sites saying 'bandwidth exceeded this month' - which is normally caused because of 'big' files. However if you know of somewhere to store them or can link to EA sections, then I could code a section for you to add 'files' information to the site.

As for the hidden board, I simply forgot - sorry. How would be if I made this one hidden? atm, there is no code to hide boards atm. That's the trouble with writing your own forum Smile

Well the patches that I have are for RA2 and YR and each one of them is less than 3MB so if you want to upload them normally that's alright and if you want me to upload them somewhere that's alright too, there are also those patches (100MB+) I have some official links (from EA sections) for them so there's no need to upload'em even if you have a big space, besides linking to official pages will be safer for us and the other users. So a downloads section will do.

About the hidden board if you can't make a staff only forum but you can make a hidden thread that's also good as long as we can discuss site related things like this..

Thank You Roguey

The hidden boards should be working now - there's one for ammo and another for admin/mods.

The file manager thingy will take me sometime as you need to create categories and add/edit file information. Its not hard to do, it will just take me some time to code it. A few Mb's would not be too bad, its just I know EA has a habit of making massive size patches (from previous experience) 100Mb+.
