Updated the theme for the 32-bit support report (based on the look of OS/2 Warp 3-4), will probably be doing live edits to it over the next day for better mobile responsiveness. Looks good on desktop tho

okay, finished making the new style responsive! (didn't take 18 hours i was just asleeping). Also improved the CDE style, replacing the 'window button' images with bordered elements, and moving all colours to :root so the whole thing can be recoloured way easier now :)

Great read! I had issues with the Wifi on my current PC and had to do a bit of configuration after getting a new network adapter.

yeah it can be such a pain sometimes, although the intel card I put in my other HP laptop recently worked without issue. I'm already having to update this post with new problems, lmao

I just wanted to say that your website is really great, and there's a lot of interesting stuff here I enjoyed reading through. That Project Cartographer site you shared for Halo 2 on PC was so cool, I had no idea something like that existed. Your Xbox page was nice to read too, many great games. Never played NSFU but lots of MW as a kid and still have it on Xbox, I will have to keep Underground in mind :)

Thankyou so much, I really appreciate the kind words :) I actually forgot about project cartographer, been distracted by other games the past year lol, plus now I have my xbox working again so I'll likely replay halo 2 there. And yeah both nfsu games are a must from that gen, whatever the platform! Your site is such a cool collection of stuff too, I'll be keeping up with what you add.

p.s. you might find this interesting: https://massivelyop.com/2018/11/10/the-game-archeologist-halo-universe/ there was a Halo MMO in development at one point; Bungie + Ensemble Studios (Age of empires). I've never heard of it outside of that article

Thanks for the article! I did hear about this before, but just from a Reddit post I saw with one piece of concept art, so reading this article + the shared Flickr page with many other art pieces is really great and reminds me to add it to the list of things to include on my site. I am glad to hear that you got your Xbox working again too, I also hope that one day you can play Halo 3 ^_^ Thanks a lot again.

Created a new style for the Linux page (and subpages), based on the look of CDE. Also made a plain template version for free use :)

Updated wording, links and CSS on some pages. Made a sanitized (without references to my username) version of my cooking page style for free use. Reworked the Internet page to look like a WinME window of yahoo pool, and made it translate to mobile better! Also added an adoptables garden on my personal page

Your website has so much content. I didn't realize you had a link button! I'll be updating that on mine.

Expanded the games section of the Xbox page, with brief reviews, price estimates, and links if they have revived online multiplayer/system link support.

I miss the days of the original Xbox. You have a great list of games there as well.

hmmm, as expected it doesn't look great on mobile, but it does adapt to the screen better now. Will probably add a 'best viewed in landscape/desktop' note next time I update it.

Those server world maps on the other site are awesome! (also I haven't played with DokuCraft on in years, so that brings back some memories...)

It can be annoying to get a website to look as good on mobile as it does on a PC. I haven't even messed with the CSS to do that on mine. You'll get it, though. ;)

@rkyros; yeah totally, i've been lucky that the other zonelets style i've used is really responsive, almost 1:1 on mobile. The sadgrl layout builder is responsive, but the way i made my style with it wasn't (mostly with fixed pixel widths vs % widths, which is what I changed today)

Made a free-use template of the 32-bit report style, added a 'current status' section to the home page, restyling/reformatting the adventure games page (WIP), and minor text/image updates to several pages.
