The Latest News

Postby The Necromancer » Thu Sep 10, 2009 3:01 pm

Welcome to the temporary home of The Last Alliance.

While a new site is being built, we have set up this forum as a way of letting people know and see what is going on and as a place where you can keep in touch with your friends and fellow gamers from the Last Alliance.

The plan is as follows:

Step 1). Set up a temporary place where people can gather and see that TLA hasn't been destroyed and that there is a team of people striving to rebuild it and make it better. (Ongoing as we speak)

Step 2). Gather as many of the original articles as possible and store them safely away for the moment we can republish them. (Ongoing as we speak)

Step 3). Design and build a new website from scratch, keeping some of the flavour of the original site, and building on the new technologies and ideas that have come in since the site first began 7 years ago. (Planning hasn't quite started yet).

Step 4). Grow and prosper.

This site won't be a clone of the old TLA, nor will it be a copy of The One Ring or The Palantir. It will be a beacon for gaming sites around the world - that's the plan anyway.

Welcome.






And watch this space.

Great plan of action there Alan.

Still trying to get my head around word press, looks very customisable though which is great.

I dont suppose anyone has the TLA banner saved do they, or are willing to make a new on in the same sort of style? Unless stacking and merging astro pictures I have no clue how to manipulate photoshop.

Thanks Paul.

This is all I have so far

Its quite a learning curve trying to figure it out (Or i'm just thick!)

The current banner is a little too large, however making it smaller on photoshop messes it up too.

I'll get there :D

I think the ones from Osbad in Constructions section have either already been saved or will be saved this week (I remember their being some there, unless I'm mistaken), as for the areas outside of that I don't know.

Any ideas on when we should post a link to the new location?

Obviously, there needs to be a few more forum headings etc. first. Plus we need to add the dancing banana to the Smilies of course.
