Re: Preview of the TI-85 Archive!
Well this is different. For one thing, we're doing this because we
want to. Secondly have you visited TI-Files? Their layout and design
sucked and they created forums and stuff that are linked from their
guestbook! TI-Calc on the other hand has loads of info, but they need
to update their site design once in a while (it's a bit boring there).
I have nothing against these sites, just that I want a change. I like
to visit TI-Calc because of faster updates than TI-Files. TI-Files is
better because of more things to do, like TI radio. I also have many
friends that would like screen shots of programs before they download.
This is one thing that many TI-85 users won't be dissappointed. Every
os game will have a scanned image of the game not in black and white
like ti-files but greyscale.
Another thing too. I have never seen a banner rotation system on any
site, ICQ List, Chat Room except for IRC etc etc...
BTW I wasn't lying that geocities server was not working. Any site
underneath the Horizon domain was unaccessable. Also I was able to get
another server to put the pictures on so now everyone can see for
themselves (http://www.xanthis.home.ml.org/preview)
that the TI-85 Archive will be a success!!! =)
