My website is up again (sort of)
by Apparatus · 01/26/2009 (11:04 am) · 20 comments
Kick off some good old notepad html editing and leave behind open source, unreliable solutions.. It took me 2 days to upload magento (www.magentocommerce.com) to the server; It wasn't a big file size but there were literally thousands of small files and though I tried both magento downloader and ftp, it took forever. And my connection is not really dial-up, I have 5 Megs metropolitan; Weird; Complicated, buggy, plain boring and bloated stuff; The worst part was deleting it, which took pretty much the same time (ages); Woo.
Now I returned the whole thing to something simple; Check it here;
Note: the actual site is available by clicking on the logo, not only the blog is there; I gotta change that 'entrance' sometime when I've more of the old stuff back up; I kinda hate the click here to enter stuff so I wonder why I ended up using it too ? :)

Awesome art work apparatus. Glad to see you've gotten your site back up.

I looks really cool in 1680x1050. I agree, very nice art. I like the cup stain. :) Though you should probably optimize the gfx a little, it's weird seeing the images load, yet I don't have a slow connection.

Good to hear the sites back up. The wordpress blog is impressive, I didn't know you had another blog.

That saves me hours every week. I would suggest leaving all other ftp apps(under $100 or free), in the dirt.

Pay for smartftp and take advantage of your bandwidth with the workers.That saves me hours every week. I would suggest leaving all other ftp apps(under $100 or free), in the dirt.

Great news, it's cool to see you're showing that Wordpress blog off to folks - bet that generates some interest in what you've got going on.

I really think you must consider this site version, take this like constructive opinion, It's SLOW and SLOW to show nothing really, the background image are so heavy..
The site has no entity, if I enter there I really feel missed there is no menu for acces nothing, no explanation or idea of "what is the topic of this site"...
Well this is an opinion Ok? a constructive one really.

Well, I should probably assign more time to this and do it properly; On the other hand, I might as well just drop development of Editmygame.com altogether.

@Apparatus: If you drop your website, I hope you will be able to find a way to continue to release content packs.

Jaimi, probably a hasty decision, but I will reconsider it and put up a simple store after a short while of standing off of it.

Not exactly; I found tumblr to be quite fun and I am fiddling with the idea..It resembles a lot my scattered development pattern as of lately...apparatus.tumblr.com

This is some unhappy remark. Am I the first to notice? Does open source have to be defended to an indie community? Sad.
Here's a reliable FTP client (dumped SmartFTP some time ago):

I loved the unfinished steam-powered rocket launcher. Loved your artwork as usual, but...Quote:leave behind open source, unreliable solutions...
