New Updates!

[Yonkey]

Hello everyone!

I just finished doing a couple more site updates!   There are two new Journal entries.  Cesar talks about his experience meeting Peter Spear, and I talk about the TSL Evolution!

As well, the Present contest runner-ups are now posted!  There were so many awesome entries that we decided to keep the top 16 best ones.   Go check them out!

Lastly, I just finished the new Intro flash for our site.  Have a look and let me know what you think!

I agree, all of them are great! So does this mean awesomeasapossum will be my PR guy for Mote plushies?

Your link to the journals doesn't work. Once you look at the link itself, you'll see why.

Oh, and the intro flash is beautiful.

If you mean the one on Home, then it's now fixed.   That's what happens with too much copy-and-pasting.

WOW those are ALL Good. I liked the Fan’s Quest the best. Kim’s is good too unfortunately I couldn’t hear Rosellas too well.

Great Job everyone!

Yes! I'm so happy that mine was a runner-up!

Thanks!   Actually I need to fix it because IE and Firefox have problems rendering it properly, resulting in screwed up timings.

Fan's Quest is HARD. I REALLY liked Kimmie's though. But what the phone, a Mote plushie!? AAAP, yours was up there in my favorites too. "Choking Hazard!" Whee! All of them were awesome though! *is indecisive* I'm glad I didn't have to choose the best.

Hahha yeah, now you know why I chose 16 runner-ups.   They were all too good to not publicy show!

[dew7]

That did it -- Thanks

Ok, I just fixed a few things in the Intro so the timings should be a bit better than before.  Plus I added in that "sketch" technique to the silver Graham.

Clear your cache and check it out!   (Still though, it seems to look best in IE )

Thanks, Neil.

Nicely done intro.  Gotta love flash.

How do you run Fan's Quest? I'm assuming that from the comment made by Rosella that it is a game.

You'll need WinRAR to extract it first, and then you just run the .exe like any other game.

Thanks Yonkinator.

The new intro is pretty cool.

Just one question, about the Journal entry. You said that you guys met the Winter release date 4 months later, but wasn't the Winter release date for Shadows, and not just a demo? Cool updates though.

EDIT: Here's what I was referring to, from last year's chat:

[17:08] <Cesar_Bittar> and no, only part 1 is released this winter, but the way they work is that each part is a game within itself

[Yonkey]

Actually, we never officially said 4 months or even December.  Fans just sort of assumed it.   I think it was more like we planned for Shadows to get done in 7-10 months from that announcement, but we knew that in the worst case we would have a demo, since the Main Hall and most of IoC was completed at that point.  Of course, things don't always go according to plan, namely the VU shutdown.

Anyway that's why we purposely left the intro vague as: "The journey begins this winter". Rather than saying March 2006, we said "winter", which could easily translate to winter in Australia or even Hawaii, since we never specified the hemisphere.
