    Alrighty guys, I'm off early tomorrow morning, so will probably have no internet for the next 2 weeks.

    Make sure you keep an eye on this sub-forum for any fresh blood, although I know cdrkf and headcrab already check as much as me :)

    See you in 2 weeks!

    Organization. We have it.

    No, srsly, this is why we need an updated web site. I'm thinking of making a demo of how I think the web site should look like. I think it's currently too... much? I mean we basically need two lines stating the TS-credentials, a link to the PrometheanPA twitch stream, one feed for news, one list of active members and one "About"-text. We could fit that in on one page.

    Since when @rivii updated the banners... everyone who has that little crown thing is an "officer" / "general" / "insert important title of your choosing here" :p

    Cool! I never noticed that before, I have a crown yay.

    Currently at the airport. Just hit 30 hours without sleep. Only obsessively checking these forums is keeping me alert. Website can be slimmed down a lot, I have editing privileges and guess I might be able to grant them to you guys? I'd have to work out how when I get back but if you haven't sorted it by then I'll try. Although I think Headcrab might be an admin as well.

    So I am studying for a final (procrastinating, that is) and couldn't sit still, so I threw together a quick and ugly website as I imagine it. We'll of course let someone with design skills design it, but this is what I was thinking of. I stole the header image from the current site.

    https://sites.google.com/site/ademoforpromethean/

    What do you think?

    I like it. But i still think there should be a page for vids and a page for inclan tournaments (and other events) that already have passed so we can see all the stuff promethean has done. We could also on that same page have the rankings. Which wasn't a bad idea , but kinda was forgotten about last time. I also don't know if all active members are going to fit in there that easily so maybe put that in a seperate page too?

    This requires some more work ofcourse and if nobody has the time we should maybe just do what jonas suggested :D

    Edit:
    OK, Jonas dream was fulfilled and the clan agreed to use his site instead of the old one.

    This is amazing news as it allows for you, the members and new recruits, to get a quick overview of what The Promethean is and what is up.

    +1 for story

    The page is currently very short, I was thinking of letting it grow downwards with data. I think it will look reasonable even with a long player-list.

    The feed in the middle shows the 5 latest posts, so I thought it could replace our history if someone wrote something short after every/some events (like we usually do on this thread anyway). What I mean is that people often write a "Good job in clan wars"-post, and one of those could go on the feed on the website, effectively forming a history as well as a news-feed. The posts about the in-clan tourneys could also contain the results.

    The reason I didn't include videos was because I don't know anyone regularly recording them. We could just make sure to include youtube-links to some relevant news feed-posts (i.e. those about clan wars fixtures).

    ah, right. So you're also going to make a past events button just like the view more button under News?

    I guess we could just make a uber forums thread for any vids or recorded streams we are going to post.

    Dunno about the button. I don't know very much about web development, I just know how to get a basic site up. The button you're talking about is added by Google Sites, and links you to the mandatory Announcements page.

    We can discuss everything on Wednesday, I assume.

    it is good except for that it needs to be more symmetrical :p

    Edit: Also we don't need the active players page and the rankings page. When i update the rankings page we can probably remove the active player page

    Announcements:
    Remove the picture or move it to the bottom of the page.

    The rest looks good :)

    You know it's the middle of the night for Jonas and killander right?

    Website looks good, might want to rejig the members list (I think we can all agree Dionysus is no longer 'web master'). Also maybe put some links up to clan war games in the videos section, the ones up now are painfully old and could probably just be taken down. Also they're mostly of me sucking at mid-beta balance.

    We should organise an in-clan tourney soon (when I get back please :) ) so we can get some results on the rankings page and see how it works out.

    Layout looks great on my phone, can't try it on desktop.

    I agree. Will keep active players until you've updated rankings. Use internal tourney #1 &#2 for that?

    Will look at symmetry.
