Update Information...

I think that in the past day or so that the layout has tried to change. The massive sea of blue as the background is there as a step towards a final template (a.k.a. a reminder to me) which I will create when I get me CSS skills up but that's not gonna happen anytime soon since im a lazy person who can get distracted easily from educational stuff... but never fear, I shall make a template and then keep improving as needed.

Since the rebirth, I reckon that the site has gone through a revamp and overhaul in appearance. Also there are now programs available for download (scroll down) and download buttons.

About the Downloads...

The downloads will vary amongst the various Operating Systems which are most commonly used by computer users.

_________________________________________________________________
  #--------------------------#
 # The Windows Family  #
#--------------------------#

.zip
.rar
.exe

The downloads will be in either .zip (or any other arvhive format) or .exe format for the Windows downloads. Since Windows is one of the leading OS's out there, these are the easiest formats to download. If you want, I can change the format to an archive set if you desire for the .exe's and other files which aren't archived (ie .zip, .rar, etc).

  #---------------------------------#
 # The Apple Mac Community #
#--------------------------------#

.dmg

The downloads for the Macintosh OS's will be in dmg until I can dig up something which isn't in this format. Having nothing but pathetic excuses for experiences with these systems in the past, I can't do much more unless I get wind of other formats to download. Yes, you Apple fans/junkies/nerds/whatever-is-worse people, I will throw in a lot of offensive stuff towards Apple but it will also go for Windows as well... and microsoft... and if you can't handle what I'm saying, then just take a deep breath and endure it like an adult (although teenagers tend to be more resistant at times)...

  #---------------------#
 # The Linux Areas #
#--------------------#

(Yes, there's more than one Linux OS version out there)

.gzip
.tar - inside the .gzip archive file
.src

Now, since Linux has far too extensive list of OS's. I can only do my best to provide a universal set of links for this community... I'm sorry but it's either going to be a Tarballed GZip or Source file unless there's a link to the actual download page (hence the "Download Page" button) for you to choose whatever version you are running... this is to help promote time efficiency and storage capacity as I won't have the space to store every-single-file for your OS version. I apoligise for this tradgety but I'm sure you can understand since Linux is tend to be thought of as server-based to other OS users...
_________________________________________________________________

Now... I plan on making changes to make the site more user-friendly by adding graphics to show what the file type is, where to click other than a button to download and perhaps a mirror site or two incase the main one is offline. In other words... a shitload of work for me to do...

I will now create an area on the side above the archive links which will be used to say what the next changes and updates will be (to the site, not to the posts) such as graphics, colours for the site, logos, etc...

I will now leave you to wnjoy what little I have up here for the time being...
