Nice work! But I couldn't quite make out the first sentance of the picture. What squadron? (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/confused.gif)

Death Angel I bet  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif). But isn't it weird to show just a capship to introduce your squadron?

Turns out it was a DNS problem with my site on the server. Seems to be working now  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Here's a much improved version.

Although with the DNS problem viewing's is still hit & miss  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/frown.gif)

Because I've yet to find a way to render them in TS without a back ground  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Unless someone knows of a plug in for TS that allows it to save as PSD format.

I do that in order to be able to apply the ships as a seperate layer than the background and thus add much better effects on other layers and such.

Yup,...the good news is my every lovely host is working on it as much as she can. Gotta love free support  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

But to be honest I'm not 100% what the exact nature of the problem is or the fix for it.


Last I heard was :


Sorry about the server ...there appears to be a problem with the DNS routing.  The server has been up 24/7 with no outages but your domain has errors for some reason.

I'm checking with the company that has my server and will get back to you to let you know whats going on.


So now all that can be done is wait.

Bad part is I'm working on site updates and i can't tell what's working and what's not  lol


Like I took that second pic above, ran it through Flash 5 and added a background music track and posted it,..but until I find the stable connect to the site...no way to insure it's fucntioning properly  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/frown.gif)

Hit! Finally!  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

Hmmm....

I think the first version is better. The fighters don't look right, for the reasons you explained before, and actually detract from the picture IMO.

The logo at the top has a border around it- same problem I assume.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/frown.gif) That HAS to be bugging you a lot...

The Alexandria looks cool, as always. I love the beam in the first pic- the best one I've seen from you yet.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

The planets all look excellent. Only possible complaint here is that some of the clouds look a bit like sandpaper.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/tongue.gif)

Once again, great work. Keep that Alexandria coming!

So that's why the navbar's missing! I was about to write an e-mail asking about that.

Confirmed! Nice job on those, Warlock  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Though I have to agree, I like the first one better. But your planets and suns and backgrounds are top notch - excellent.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
