Title: Kings Quest Encyclopedia- Collecting
Post by: Stones Of Stealth on May 08, 2006, 03:47:38 PM
hey, after years of questing on KQ, I decided to put some of my knowledge on the net. using my HTML/web designing/Kq knowledge I decided that I would create a Kings Quest Encyclopedia.

the main topics of the site would be the Games, the History, The Puzzles, Hints,Pictures... and Misc. and of course some forums..

I can only do this with the help of great KQ fans. All I need you to help me do is this.. Submit:

-any Pictures of the games, ANYTHING, related to KQ along with a label stating which game it is from and from what scene it portrays(to take a screenshot press "prnt scrn")

- Any Hints that you may have to help the KQ Gamers, please no spoilers

- any Miscellanious facts or details that you can think of about the series.

- Any Puzzles that have been figures out you cna email them too me, for example in KQ6 you might get lost in translation of the hieroglyphics, so you can submit the symbols, and what they mean etc. anythign that might help them advance, only to advance, just to give the gamers a push in the right direction, no walktrhoughs or huge chapters of the quest.

- anythign else that you find might be useful for the comppletion of the tasks on the website.


On the site I will have a page dedicated solely to the contributors that made this pedia happen. I give credit where credit is due. I am not the contribuors work look like my own, I don't think of myself as the creator of the site, only the manager.

If you would like to submit anything for the well being of the site, or anythign that was listed aboce, Suggestions, etc. Email them to me at
KQpedia@hotmail.com

lastly once this site is done production, I might be looking for a host, so if anybody would help me with that, I would greatly appreciate it.

Please note that I amONLY doign this in my spare time.(on weekends  only) so if you find that this post is dying, please bump it up, or if you think im dead and I abandoned you, I didn;t, im just away.

Hey Stones,

This has already been done by many fans of KQ already, including ones from this very forum!

You can visit it at: http://kq.sq7.org/

However, it is an always expanding encyclopedia, so if you have knowledge not listed there already, you can help contribute to it!

I wish you the best of luck! :)

It's time well spent! You actually came up with a good idea, despite it being done already! Any time wasted is time well spent... (If that includes sitting in the library in school looking at the sixth graders having reccess outside below, when I'm supposed to be doing my research paper, then it was time well spent...) But anyway, good idea! I would have contributed, if I could!

I dunno I might still...just i dunno, if I do I would go the free way for hosting etc. because im a cheap nerd. so it might not be hit as much as the other one, so im asking everyone, would you actually use it?

edit:

ohmehgawsh almost forgot. Dark Daventry, what template are you using for that website...thats stunning. did you mke it yourself?

I can't make jack! XD It's a freewebs template! (I cheat...) I do try to use my HTML and CSS knowledge to the best of my ability, which I am attempting in my own freetime to make a (hopefully) better Website of Demonic Info! But, if you want to make a freewebs site, all you have to do is register, and it's free. (Although you get much better service with the paid premium plan like me. I'm paying for it out of my own pockets... And, the new address is http://www.demonicinfo.tk, which is the same site, but with a free domain name... The catch is that I have to have 25 people come to the site in 90 days... So start spreading the site!
