Unoffical redesign of the .org's website

Basically, this is just as MSB set out to do before it came to a halt when he left the .org. I aim to unoffically redo the .org's front page and it needs alot of work doing to it to make it look like it was when it was first created. The plan is for members to submit text and graphics for the design to work so that the revised website can be forwarded to the website Admin. Please note that any content that is designed by members is not 100% guaranteed to actually reach the website. Anything that is submitted may get used, but only at the Administrator's discretion and the Terms and conditions.

The site that I will submit will be using MSB's original plan and is envisioned as this:

To do all this, I will be in need of players of any of the Total War games which have been released.

Graphic designers are also needed to make certain images such as the logos, making the borders of the images transparent etc.

Historians on the periods around where the Total War games are essential so that a insight into how each faction coped with their surroundings and various other important information.

People who are good with the HTML is needed heavily lot mostly due to what is needed to be done.

This project has a sub-forum which was the one which was left over from the previous attempt and it'll be for the staff members transferring files needed for the final build.

The members on the Team are as follows:

UltraWar - Project Manager and Whip - Graphic Designer, MTW/RTW player and Historian

I will help

Hi UltraWar,
Are you giving the new style of site a Medieval feel? If you are then the amazing and fantastical internet wayback machine may be able to help you! It has old graphics from the site way back in 2003. Perhaps you could ask their original designer (who I think was the founder Dan Goldsein) if you could use them for your new design? Good luck with your project! Cheers!

BTW, I'm sorry, but I can't join your project - I am sorry, and slightly embarrassed to say, that I have no skills in graphics, html formatting (I only learnt what that was last Tuesday :embarassed:) or historical information gathering/research. My apologies.

ill help, just because i have played all the tw games, even spartan and i could give you feedback and pointers


yes we all miss MSB

the :knight: of :spammer: he was

Is this project still alive? If so I am quite handy with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and PHP. Not so hot on the graphics part, but I have made some pretty sweet fan sites about 5 years or so ago. They no longer exist unfortunately($$$ issues) but I would be interested in taking a part in this project, if it is still a go.
