What kind of site am I making?
Is it a,
Shared Site
User site

Is this what I select to star the site?

[Detail]

I'm not sure what you mean by those.

Check your fellow hosted Generals mods for exampls:
http://regen.game-mod.net/
http://the-finest-hour.net/
You want something like those, but specific for your mod.

maybe write a seperate css for non-ie browsers?

[Slye_Fox]

I've made the basic site, and I've got SecureFX.
What do I do now?

[Detail]

I've deleted your other 2 posts. This is a forum, don't expect instant service.
If you need instant help, ask anyone in the 'Network Staff' members group who is online at the time.


To use the FTP:

Look at the image i have attached. You will have something like that.

- Click the button i have coloured red.
- Now it asks for a Protocol. Leave it as the default 'FTP'. Click next.
- The host address is 'game-mod.net'. Leave the port as the default 21. Click next.
- Now un-tick the Annonomus Login box. Your username is 'sitename@game-mod.net' (change sitename, you your sites name). The password is the one provided to you in the e-mail. Click next.
- You can leave the Initail Directory blank. Click next.
- The session name can be anything, it's just a name. Click finish.

You will now be back at the first screen again.
Select the connection you just made and click 'Connect'.

You will now have 2 boxes, one is your hard disk, the other is the servers hard disk. Copy and paste files from your hard disk to the servers'.

Thay will now appear here: http://www.sigmaxii.game-mod.net/ for people to download or view.

[Slye_Fox]

Thanks, I'm on now.
I think there was a space in the password.

[Slye_Fox]

Okay, the site is up.
what now
BTW, it does have the origen bar.

Stop making 'Title' topics. Upload the files to your site, not to forum.

The story page is in ALL CAPS, it's in a poor font, it's white on black. It is hard to read.

Your Units and Screenshot pages have no content. Theres no point in opening untill you have content in those pages. If you do open without content in those pages some people will call you a n00b. We don't want this, so wait till you have content before you open.

You must have the network bar.

[Slye_Fox]

Okay,
I've finished updating the site.

[Detail]

Better.
It still has a bad font. Try using Verdana font.



If you want, you can make a folder and put your http://www.geocities.com/slye_fox1/ site in it.

Example:
MadHQ has his Internal Destruction mod site at http://internal.game-mod.net/
He also has his Resource site at http://internal.game...depot/</strong>

[Slye_Fox]

Done

[Slye_Fox]

Okey it's ready.
I'll add my personal site later.

I've added your site to the network bar, banner ad rotor and added a link from your forum.

Remember to update 1 time a month and you can be hosted here as long as you like.

[Slye_Fox]
