               Looking good Amethyst. You might want to put a "Home" button on the top bar so that people can return to the frontpage.

D'oh! ':pinched:'

I'll fix that tomorrow.  For now, you can click on the site title graphic.

               Very awesome, almost feels like the game is starting over sort of. Maybe its just a fresh start rather.

               If it is ok with everyone I promoted this on the Facebook group page i run. If not I will remove the posts immediately. But I think getting as many people to help will make it all that much better.

Definitely ok. '<img'>  The more promotion NWN gets, the better for our beloved game.

Plus, the more people involved, the more complete the information (and links to other NWN sites) will be.

If anyone has information they want included, feel free to email it to me (builder@neverwinternights.info).  If it's actual content for the site, can you type it up in a plain text file and attach it?  That'd make copying and pasting much easier.  I'm going to be spending some time with family for the next couple weeks, so I'll be able to jump into fitting it in once I have more NWN time.

Feel free to keep up on the suggestions/feedback here, too.  I'll be rereading this entire thread when I get time.

Oh, and I've misplaced my links to download the critical rebuild patch from BioWare.  Can someone post it here and I'll get it added tomorrow (since new players will need it when buying from gog.com)?  Thanks.

               from:   http://nwn.wikia.com...ernal_resources


Critical rebuild downloads for the final patch (1.69). These are for the English game running under Windows.

               That looks great AD, well up to the standard we've come to expect from anything with your signature on it.

As far as what goes on the site is concerned it would be good if it covered all things NwN with links to as many existing resources as possible

just my 2p worth.

Personally any main web site for nwn could only help promote a game that has pretty much fallen upon our own hands now. Any promotion or advancement of the game is up to us(the community) so why cant we make a site for our favorite game. I say go for it amethyst dragon . Make us a site that helps promote this great game , anything we can do to keep this game going can only help in the long run.

               I'll offer a solution for the CC/Players section argument. Why not make a page with only the very basics to getting started, and then label the other areas as advanced? That allows the player/viewer to choose just how much to invest without having it loaded on them and possibly overwhelming them. I understand the concern there, but CC and what AD listed are very important topics to cover for players as well. Someone can choose to only read the basic introduction as a new player, and come back later for more once they understand the simple stuff.

AD: I could help out a little as time allows, if you need. I'm fairly used to managing websites, coding for it and doing a little graphic design. Also, will the site get it's own forum? That might be nice, other than for being social, it would be good to have forums that we can back up ourselves as a community and not have the same risk of loosing material as has happened before...

               I took the liberty of stripping everything from the wayback.com cached listings (all 913 of them were reviewed) from 2002 to present. Here is what I have with all the source, javascript for menu rollovers, etc. I seem to remember a roll over menu at the top that ended up at the bottom of the page on the wayback.com cached listing, obviously that would have to be worked into the top and if memory serves it would go where the current menu at the top is now. I also removed the login portion on the left which could be reallocated for screenshot rotation, news, or whatever. Let me know if you want it I can email or make it available for download.
