"Whoa, what happened?"
ApolloMix is a fantastic website. It has a great number of daily visitors, a large collection of sheet music and soundtracks, and an awesome administration behind it. However, after its first month or two of high publicity and user interaction, it slowed down. ApolloMix lost its lustor. The staff tried everything to get it back; we added new features, we updated the database almost daily, but still, no new members came and stuck around. We were at a loss of what to do. Well, most of us were. I, being the site's programmer and sole backend designer, knew that the site's lack of structure was solely responsible for limiting user interactions. On top of that, it made adding new updates, and FIXING the absence of structure, next to impossible... a little something I like to call 7/8 impossible. (argh, oh my gosh Frank, shut UP, I'm trying to write a news article! I don't care if Ganondorf looks like an idiot.)
Ah yes, Frank. I have always been the adventurous, motivated type. I've always worked hard, and set high goals. Can anyone guess what I did this time? I told myself, "I'm going to make one of my best online friends a birthday present." Now, what could I possibly make him, if we live wayyyyy far away from each other? I'm not gonna mail him anything. Then it clicked. It clicked like a blazing supernova inside a crazy-huge black hole x2. Let me tell you; it was a crazy click. But I was daring. So, working for about a year on end completely behind the scenes, I started to rebuild ApolloMix. I was careful in all of my programming. I did my best to ensure everything works, (if you find any errors, let me know!) and I remade ApolloMix. And I finished. Obviously, I missed Frank's birthday, but I made it just in time for Christmas! Spread the word, guys! ApolloMix is back, and bigger and badder (and radder!) than ever. With that said, MERRY CHRISTMAS, Frank! Merry Christmas, die-hard fans! Merry Christmas, ApolloMix! |

hey dekudude! This looks like a very well made website. If you want any constructive criticism, I'm not sure what that list on the right side of the screen is. It looks like a list of recent stuff on the site. Also if you're looking at music, the "S" in "Sibelius" is not bold. For all I know, this may have been intentional because I've never heard of the Sibelius format. It'd also be cool if those links opened in new windows. I don't know why, but that's just something I'd expect it to do, or maybe it's because I'm used to clicking on links from forums, which always open new windows. Anyway, this site looks great and really clean. You've given me some really good ideas on how to fix my website's layout and structure. |

Yeah, regarding the lists of things on the right side of the screen...sometimes it is difficult to tell what each title is because it cuts off half way. Might want to provide a bit more space for 'em. Looks nice. |

1 more thing. I tried to make my email address invisible to the public, and when I clicked submit I got Fatal error: Call to undefined function error() in /home/apoldan1/public_html/editProfile.php on line 82 :-( |
