Site of the Week 2
Posted on 01 Sep 2008 by Kinopio
The Desert Colossus is this week's featured site! TDC has been on the web for quite a long time. Over the years it has become a well rounded site the covers multiple aspects relating to the Zelda series. The Hyrule Adventures 2, an RPG made by the Desert Colossus, is also very neat, maybe you'll even consider joining yourself.
I've been a little busy the last few days and school starts tomorrow, but I hope to get so more content in this week. Until then!
Changes and a Review
Posted on 28 Aug 2008 by Kinopio
Before you read today's site review, you must know that I made a few changes. First of all, originally I was going to give anyone a score under a 2.5, but now the range goes all the way to 0. This means the scores I give will be harsher then before.
Also, I got rid of the "Friendliness" category since they were basically gimme points. In place of it I added 2 new categories. The first, audience, is based on the size of the site's audience and how they tailor the site to them. The second is growth which is based on how fast or slow the site is growing. Hopefully this will make future reviews more accurate.
As a side note, I'm also working on a webring which you can preview in the link below. It's still in development because I can't figure out how to get a next, previous function working, but eventually you'll see the finished product. If you're a PHP god and know how to do stuff like that, please tell me and you'll officially be my favorite person ever. =)
Stock Pot Inn Review
Posted on 27 Aug 2008 by Kinopio
By request of the owner of the Stock Pot Inn (and I don't mean Anju), I reviewed their site. They're a very young site looking for members, so if you like Majora's Mask, or Zelda in general, then you may want to join.
Twilight Realm Review
Posted on 26 Aug 2008 by Kinopio
I finished the review of Twilight Realm as you can see from link above. Congratulations on such a hefty score! I have another review lined up for this week, so make sure you check back soon.
I tested the email forms multiple times yesterday and I only got about half of them back. I think it was because of my email account, so I changed it to my regular one. I'm not sure it fixed the problem entirely, so if you sent something and I never answered, chances are that I never got it. Try sending me a normal email, not from the forms, which you can find on any of the contact pages.
We also have a new affiliate: The Temple Ruins. It's a great site that focuses on ALTTP, so make sure you drop by. I think I forgot to mention Zelda Capital as a new affiliate before because I added them during that month I didn't update. Let's welcome them as well; they have quite an extensive library section filled with all sorts of interesting Zelda articles. If I forgot anyone else, please remind me. Until next update!
Site and Article of the Week
Posted on 25 Aug 2008 by Kinopio
I came up with a new idea: the site and article of the week. Every Monday I'll randomly pick a site and recognize it for something interesting, new, or unique. If the webmaster agrees, I will also try to review their site in the same week it is featured. As for the article portion, I will either write an article each week and feature it, or just feature one that has already been written. The focus will be mainly on the site however.
This week's site is none other than Twilight Realm made by Chanty. It's a Zelda site dedicated to solely Zelda wallpapers. Chanty does such a great job with them it puts Nintendo's wallpapers to shame. If you're looking for a change in your desktop then make sure you give them a visit.
As a final note, you can view all posts relating to the site and article of the week under the appropriate section on the menu.
