Hey all, I'm launching a new website, and I thought I'd ask you all to take an early look, check for problems, and maybe think about writing some articles
http://www.spectaclerock.com/
Enjoy!
Love the banner, what do you plan on doing with the website though?
i got stuck between a ramp and the wall i took a screenshot

My intention is to have a mix of reviews, commentary on news items, and general articles about game mechanics, game history, that sort of thing. It's not going to a "breaking news" type site, not do I intend to have launch-day type reviews like most sites have. I feel you really can't give a game a proper review until you've either finished it or given up on it, personally. I've got 2 other writers already who are working on things for the "official" launch, and I'd like to keep up a pace of a handful of pieces a week until I build up a larger contributor base.
go zargon.
I like it. I look forward to seeing what it can become
I'll be the party pooper and say I don't like the web page design. Sorry :/
The only thing right about it is the bicolumn blog layout. I don't like the color scheme, the banner/font, and the graphics seem lacking.
EDIT: I have to say it's coded well though.
I'd be up for writing maybe if you want me :V
Have to say, I love the credits.
Woot, looks good and nice link to BRB!

It could be in video games, like every 10 articles you send me a game or something.

It could be in sex like every 10 articles you send me a blowjob or something.

Well, I am definitely looking for more writers, though I cannot pay anyone quite as of yet
 Don't worry, once Google buys me out, we'll be rolling in it.
I second HPH on the banner, I think it needs either more rectangles or some random-color sprinkle pixels just to get it away from being a 4-bit (?) rainbow. The theme and rest of the layout, however, I dig. Looking forward to more content! I enjoyed the writeup on MOO, because even though I don't play it, I have friends who are MOO2ophiles.
i like the color scheme and it looks to be coded very well
some of the games you had on there i have never heard of though, so i have no interest in reading through the blocks of text
i do realize that you have only put 2 articles in though

Well, it
is supposed to be 4-bit rainbow; it's the old CGA colors from way back when. More content is on the way! I'm working on another article now, and one from another writer, and that will probably be the mass for launch.
You can't please everyone haha.
