Paul Hughes~ Web site read-me file:
A bit for you AF people:
I have a reader`s request to add to the readme:Please could you put
Battle-craft(you know,the warcraft 2 lookalike)on yuor next cd,because I
lost the files of the game through accidential deletion!Thanks.
most of the text you now is on the proper readme but there is bits for your
eyes only.....
hello and Welcome to the read-me file!If you have already looked at the web
site then you may have seen, that in the first page(which is 1.HTM)there are
some bits saying look at the read-me file.If not it doesn`t matter.
Some history about the Web Site:
It was started about a year ago when our school got a web-page authoring
program(some of you may know it as Front-Page editor.And I know that I may be
betraying the Amiga but at the time there was nothing like Front-Page on the
Amiga)
Everyone wanted a go at making their own site,including me.
In the beginning,it contained only Star Trek News and sounds(yes,I am a
Trekkie or a trekker.I don`t know which is the right term.)then when I got my
Amiga 1200 for my 14th birthday,I began to include some Amiga stuff, such as
little reviews of the software I had got with the Amiga 1200.Slowly and
surely,the PC-owning people started to moan about me covering the Amiga when
there was a "better" machine out on the market.
this actually made me mad,and then becuse they conplained so much,I decided
to dedicate the whole site to the Amiga.In turn this made them mad,and so
loads of PC pages turned up.The sad part is that they all had the same
pictures and the same stories!!!!
Now my web site is the best site on our school web because it has varity,and
is well presented.
A bit more about the site....
It has some news which to you may be dated but it took me a while to come
with the news and reviews so Don`t complain too much!!!!!
What you need to see the web site:
A web page browser and enough RAM to see the pictures.And the workbench
would have to be 256 colours because of the IFF graphics.
.Also You have to look at the cool Netscape
animation in the other news and bits page!(It is a GIF,so you need the
GIF datatype on your workbench.And maybe an amin datatype.I don`t know.)
I lost the Shadow of the 3rd Moon Page
during file transfer,so I have had to improvise.And edit the whole site
again!!!!So now there is the Other News and bits page!!
I don`t have a lot of knowledge about HTML,apart from the following:
=starts a paragraph.
=ends the paragraph.
=underlines the line(s)
=stops the underlining.
and there is a little more but I don`t have much time before I post this
site to you lot.(I have only begun to try and learn the HTML language so
please bear with me!!
I made the Mainmenu,the Games News and Previews Page and the Shadow of
the 3rd Moon page of the site at school,but I have made extensive changes at
some of the pages at home on my Amiga(templated)The Games tips page is so far the
the first page that I have succesfully compleated first time
.The pictures links were shot because
of the file transfer of the pages from school,so I
had to modifey those.Ans I transferred most of the pictures to IFF format so
that lesser-equipped Amigas could still view some of the pictures.......
I MUST STRESS THAT THIS IS A CUT DOWN VERSION OF THE SITE. AND IT IS NOT ON
THE INTERNET SO YOU CAN`T VISIT THE FULL WEB SITE UNLESS YOU ATTEND HAWARDEN
HIGH SCHOOL!
