Old Guildpage History













November 7, 1999: I have the basics for a roster page done so thought I would set it up as a link. It is by -no- means finished though so don't be too surprised if you take a look at it one day and some things are different. (i'm always changing pages or trying to improve on them) Next I need to update the guild news page and create a page for Advancement Quests, plus get new screen shots up. Lots to do and I don't always feel like doing it so bear with me. Thanks.










October 13, 1999: Finally finished the Guild Ranks page guys! (let's hear a hip hip hooray!!) I'm sorry it took so long but I wanted it to be just right so there were no big questions later on about what is expected, needed, wanted etc.. for each rank. I'll set that new page up after I update this. I set blinking update notices in each link box on the second page so people will know when to actually look at them instead of just guessing then missing something of importance. (i know it's a pain sometimes to come to the site and keep up on what's going on. hopefully this will help you all out. ~smile~) Alright, the blinking update was getting on -my- nerve so I took it out and will just have rather important information updates blinking instead. Started messing with the screen shots page, if you have any ideas for it please let me know..thanks. Updated the guild news page also today.










October 6, 1999: Added some Guild News, placed a "return to menu" link on the UO Links page, (silly me forgot to add it when i put the page up, duh) and added a new link to the UO Links page. Updated this page too. (like you couldn't tell. ~grin~) Didn't do a whole lot.










October 3, 1999: Just finished with the UO Links page and it's up and running now! (WOOHOO!) Hope you all like the sites I've put up and if you have any suggestions for other UO related sites let me know. Thanks!










October 2, 1999: I added news to the Guild News page (obviously), then added OCW to our Allies page along with their guildsites url. I updated -this- page then worked a little bit more on the UO links page which is coming along nicely. (if i may say so myself that is ~smile~) I have done a little more work on the Ranks page and almost have it finished now.










September 26, 1999: Added the background to the Screenshots page. Placed the letter from the Farland Clan Guildleader on the Guild News page.










September 20-22, 1999: Did a lot of work on this page since August. I created a non-frames page as I really don't like frames. Hopefully this is an improvement. (if not please let me know..leave a message on the board) Alright, here is a rundown of what I've done to this page in the past few days. 1) Opening Page: changed the doorway so it now goes to the non-frames page. changed the revision date, added Tarhalins name to those being thanked for making suggestions as to new pages to create. added the copyright thing for UO at the very bottom. 2) Allies Page: changed the bar and added a link to get back to the menu page. 3) Charter Page: fixed a pic that wasn't showing, fixed a typo and added a link to get back to the menu page. 4) Guild News Page: changed the background and added a link to get back to the menu page. 5) GuildPage History: added a link to get back to the menu page and updated it. 6) created and put up the Screen shots page. (go take a peek, some are rather funny) Well that's about all I did but it was a lot of work let me tell you. I'm hoping to get a background on the screen shots page and get the UO links set up soon. Yes, I'm still working on the ranks and roster pages...I don't have any time frame for finishing those yet though, sorry.










August 31, 1999: Was basically cruising the net and found this neat side background and little bar for this page. It seems to better reflect my love of bright colors. (can you vets remember bree darting about the east forest in flourescent colored fancy dresses? ~shudders~) Well anyway, I changed this page and placed new dates first with the old ones at the bottom. Also put some new music on the front page. (amazing grace was beginning to get a bit old don't you think?) I found some great sites with celtic/scottish pipe music, so I'll be changing the midi from time to time, hope you like them! Worked more on the 'ranks' page..trying to finish up the 'New Recruits' part. Sorry guys/girls but that page is going rather slow as I -really- have to be in the mood to work on it. I'll try to get going on it though.










August 24, 1999: I couldn't sleep so am here messing around with things. Tried to set up a page for tithes but can't seem to get a dang table to fit the way I want it to. (dang perfectionist that i am) I'll have to work on that later. Made a "guild news" page and am hoping to get it set up in a bit...well after I update -this- that is. Speaking of which I should get my rear back to that page.










August 11, 1999: Jason has worked and worked on the guild roster page but I'm being pretty picky about what it looks like. (okay, so i'm being a pain in the butt) What I want is something that looks nice but doesn't take ten minutes to load. The average time before was 8 minutes, too long as far as I was concerned. It's taking some time but eventually we hope to have a great roster page.










August 7, 1999: Found an error on the charter page where two words were run together so fixed that. Jason has fixed the frames page so it should work correctly now. (well we -hope- he has. if you find a problem with it still, -please- let me know. thanks!) The roster page is getting a complete overhaul so please bear with us while we tweak and retweak it. (kind of reminds you of that hair shampoo commercial. "and they'll tell two friends and so on and so on and so on" ~grin~) I am starting a couple other new pages...one for guild screenshots and another for guild history. Look for those pages to be up soon.










July 22, 1999: The alliance page was tweaked yet again but I'm still not sure I like it. (not thrilled with the present bars ~making a face~) Jas got the virtue names in the charter page to flip, so when you run your cursor over the english version...it flips over to the gaelic one. Pretty cool actually! (good job jas!! ~smile~) Halted work on the merchants page to begin a new page which will be about rules, regulations, color scheme for levels, moving up in ranks etc.










July 16, 1999: Worked on this page so I could get it up for viewing. Hate the background so will look for something better later on. (yes i'm a perfectionist with some things) I had to go back and remember when I did what which wasn't very easy so some dates might be wrong. (i did the best i could) I'm thinking this page will be on the frames page in a day or two..we shall see.










July 6, 1999: The fourth of July holiday kept me pretty busy so I haven't done much to the site. (sorry guildmates) Tweaked a few pages and changed some images around..that's about it.










June 28, 1999: Started working on a merchants page so those who wish to sell their wares on our site can do so. There will be price listings, goods for sale listed, what the merchants skill is, and I am hoping to get a second message board just for this page. Also might set it up as an advertising sort of page so anyone with items to sell may have them listed and use the board to talk to others about them. (yes i know, a lot of work has to go into this which is why it's moving slowly) Sounds like a good idea, we'll have to see if it is an accepted one.










June 17 , 1999: Canthon's player sent me a url to a messageboard site (thank you ~warm smile~) and after going through the registration process we got it set up. I am not all that thrilled with it, but it is better then nothing and was free. I may check out others in the near future.










June 12, 1999: Due to a death in my family, (my 12 year old nephew died) I was not online as often and when I was, I wanted to be in game. I didn't work on the page for a while but after getting nudged by a few I started on the allies page. This was pretty easy to do and within a couple days it was up and on the frames for everyone to see.










June 8, 1999: With the top page done, the frames page looking fairly decent, the roster page bare but working, charter page almost finished...I gave out the url to anyone and everyone who wanted it. Trust me, I was -very- surprised on the feedback I got as most of it was positive. The constructive criticism I took to heart and made the changes some thought would be best. (no i didn't whine and have a fit, i'm really not like that..-really-! ~grin~) It -did- look better so I was glad those who told me the truth as they saw it did so.










June 2, 1999: With Eric breathing down my neck (interesting visual eh?) as he had already given the url to several without my knowledge...I yanked Jas into an ICQ chat where we worked all night on the page. (think i went through five pots of coffee that night) To my way of thinking there was still not enough on it to be letting others peek but..well..maybe it was the push I needed to really make it happen.










May 31, 1999: Finished the division tables for the roster page and added all those who are in the guild at this time. Have set it up so I can add small pics of each individual later. (yes, a chance for you to have your characters mug up for viewing) Want to fiddle with this page more later on but like with the charter page...just want something to throw up now.










May 30, 1999: Decided to make the roster page using tables, so we changed some images and also decided to use the gaelic language (there are many dictionary translators on the net right now) for some of the titles with the english version somewhere about. Thought to make the inner circle tables more elaborate so did that too.










May 26, 1999: With Jas working on the frames, I finished the charter (what there is of it) and started on the roster page. He had created some cool stuff so I was anxious to see what it would look like set up.










May 23, 1999: Started working on the charter which I must say I was a bit lost on. There are so many good guilds out there who have excellent ideas and I was overwhelmed with the task at hand. (that's an understatement) After being stumped for a week I finally asked a few for ideas and was surprised when they told me to keep it simple. (thanks guys! ~smile~) Thinking about it I decided to just use what the game already had set up and elaborate on it a bit. The charter page was born and we set out to make images. I figured I could always add to it later anyway but wanted something up now.










May 17, 1999: Not happy with the images I had found for the page, I grabbed a good friend who does not play UO and asked him to help create some graphics for the site. He ecstatically (okay that is a slight exaggeration) said yes and within a weeks time we had the basics for the index page.










May 15, 1999: After Breeanne was asked to lead the Celtic Highlanders of Britannia, I thought the guild should have a page where members or others might go to learn more about what CHB stands for etc. (why i thought that i have -no- idea, must have had a moment of insanity. hey! no comments from the peanut gallery..you know who you are ~pointing~) So, I began preparations to create a guildpage. After talking with Eric's player who is the founder, I decided to stick with the Scottish/Celtic theme and began searching for ideas. Boy, you would not believe the amount of information I found out there! (can we say Braveheart?) Anyway, after securing a site with Geocities and brushing up on my HTML (and what a joy that was!...not ~rolling eyes~) I started the slow process of making the index page..or as some might call it, the top page.
