Quake Archiving Project
For links to the old cdrom.com/sunet you could use http://www.quaddicted.com/stuff/sunet.s ... rg.user.js but that is super old and ugly and could be done in 5 lines by someone smarter than me-5-years-ago.
Map sites:
For TeamShambler I got permission by Shambler to make the links point to Quaddicted. I just have to finally do it. Underworldfan wanted to host his site at Quaddicted but vanished, I should try contacting him again.

Improve Quaddicted, send me a pull request: https://github.com/SpiritQuaddicted/Quaddicted-reviews
Yeah, well, hopefully this fall I'll have some spare time to work on the archives a bit, remove old FilePlanet links, banners, ads and make them standalone.

Hey all, I just found my kickflip quake site on reocities:
http://www.reocities.com/TimesSquare/Ha ... index.html
I'd be grateful if anybody could add this to a quake-related archive aswell, or point me to its location!
I'm also looking for contact details of Avatar ("TargetQuake") and Ryan Feltrin alias Ridah ("QuakeRally" & "Quess").
If anybody can help find out their email addresses, their mods are to be shown in a german computer games museum together with some other mods including kickflip quake.
Here's a link to the museum - http://www.computerspielemuseum.de/index.php?lg=en

Initial thoughts, background image took forever to load on a rather solid connection - enough to where I thought the bulk of the page was white.
I really like the apocrypha section, the fact that its there, and the choice of name. I'll take a deeper look later, but for now, keep it up!

Are you using IE or Firefox, scar3crow ? The background shows normally to me in Firefox 3.6.8, but took forever on IE6 to render. Looks like some issue with the .jpeg compression, not related to the file size itself.scar3crow wrote:Initial thoughts, background image took forever to load on a rather solid connection - enough to where I thought the bulk of the page was white.
I know FrikaC made a cgi-bin version of the quakec interpreter once and wrote part of his website in QuakeC

At the moment Chrome, but on inspection the background image is 1,087k and 2867x1075... That could be streamlined a bit, though I will say it does look nice. It rendered for me correctly, it was just so slow initially that I didn't notice it coming in as it was a vertical fill from the top and I was looking more around the center of the site, taking in all the (what I thought was intentional at that moment) white.

If the JPEG image was compressed with high quality settings (and from what scar3crow commented about the file size that's looks the case) then it may be noticeable slow to decompress and show. And IIRC default Windows JPEG libraries are not exactly the most performatic out there, hence why any browser but IE embeds its own support.
