Hey guys so taking a look at our site / boards I kinda grin.
If you want I've done some work building sites in the past for projects and what not, I could probably whip something up.
-I would like to combine the Message board - and main site to make it easier for everyone to communicate and shitz.
Was thinking about using Joomla if anyone cares.
Just a suggestion, I also have webspace with everything I need to set it up. Just need a domain like scsuencounter.com or something. (costs about $7.80)

I think it would be a really good idea to set up a new team site. This is the old luckydog site, so since we started with a new team, a new team name, and a new team logo we might as well get a new site set up. The only thing is I dont really know how to set anything up so i wouldnt be much help with it. So Spock if you can get something start we should try and give it a shot.
With this cost of $7.80 to set up a domain, would this only be a one time fee? Or more like a monthly fee we'd have to keep paying?

Yeah, I made this site in a hurry and never finished it: studentorg.stcloudstate.edu/m_frisbeeand the old luckydog site: studentorg.stcloudstate.edu/m_frisbee/luckydog/index.htmThis message board is all pre set up by a website called Proboards. Any yokel can set it up But it was all self taught. Never did any web design. You're welcome to revamp it all! You can use the webspace SCSU provides. Or if you wanted to go Spock's route and pay to have a decent url like "SCSUEncounter.com" would be cool. Spock, you get +1 karma from me.

Here is something I whipped up: encounter-test-site.co.ccObviously it needs a team logo and content, but the template I modified to fit the ultimate need. Also that won't be the domain we will use obviously, but let me know what you think! (Forums need their color changed, working on it) Also: it was built using the open-source CMS system Joomla. (gogole it if you must). But Joomla has lots of plugins that basically let us do what ever we want to it. It already has a built in user and news system, as you will see. It also has a very good email system. But ya if someone can email me the PSD for the encounter logo, I can add it to my verison of the site if everyone approves.

I might be able to get the domain name at a lower price through a friend who gets discounted domain names, as well as possibly get us some cheap hosting (Unless we can get it free from SCSU). I'll let you know what I find.

Yay for connection, getting things for cheap and taking advantage of the system. That system basically sums up the ultimate frisbee team as a whole, wouldn't you agree?

agreed. Wow Peter you've already posted as many times as Ward! PhoenixFury is Kyle Jensen poorleno is Matt Sitko. I like the beginning of it Spock. Keep at it. I'll try to get you some images to dress it up a bit.

Thanks Joe, for letting me know who is who. I have nothing better to do with my time than check out the Encounter Ultimate board and see who I can Exalt or Smite, or come up with some pithy comeback. And I have minus one Karma, I'm crying.

Final update on this: I am working with some guys down in CH34 to build a server for our site. It will be hosted down there for free, 24/7....Or until it blows up from Peter's board spam. We will use the domain stcloudstate.edu/encounterProvided for free from some guy that has the hook up. If you want a domain on top of that domain (like scsuencounter.com) we can point it to the same site, but hell i'm not paying for that every year. A permanent solution is better after talking to Ward. because once we all the leave the team we don't want to leave the others with nothing.
