Welcome to the New MovieBattles.com!

As some of you might have noticed, our forums have recently received a new dressup. Well, my friends, I'm afraid that's just the tip of the iceberg. Here, without further due, I am pleased to welcome you to:

The new and improved MovieBattles.com

This new site's been many months in the making and has taken a great deal of time from a couple of people. The road to this new site has been long and rocky at times, reaching an impass in some periods.

This mod and it's website has been around since about 2003 and has come to grow over this past 7 years. In the early days, it was just couple of simple pages advertising what was then an ambitious project.

As the project started to grow and more people got involved, the need of having a better presentation rose up. The need to have a look that would draw newcomers to the game and deliver it to the public in an accessible yet stylish way.

After quite the bumpy ride, we finally got it implemented and it's kicking sweet ass.

The new design delivers a far more modern look and streamlines the long pages of convuluted content that the old site. We're still doing some final tweaks / adding some more content to our new sweet media gallery and we will continue to update the site regularly to bring you the latest on our game.

So now I want you to give it up for these three people who helped me get the ball running! Here are the responsibles for the new site's look:

iFish - CSS and HTML Template Design/Coding.
Tom/Jnive - Integrating and Simplying the Web Site.
Mace Madunusus - Epic Media Content Provider.
Greenleon - Letting us use his awesome MBII server query script.
Frost - Visual Redesign, Layout and Page Creation

Along with v0, this redesign marks the beginning of a new era. A milestone for this mod's life. We are now, finally, starting a campaign to promote the mod all around the Internet with the sole purpose of broadening our horizons and reaching out to a bigger number of players. And as a result of such...



...to go out and spread the word! Get on forums and email magazines! It's your job as a long endured Community Member of this mod to go out and advertise it so that it may keep getting played and developed for generations to come.

Without anything else to say, Frost here, I love you all!

I'm going to do some Dev hunting if I don't get my MB2 Standard back. It had the only colors that felt like home...

Old site felt like home indeed.

Look, it looks awesome, but you just HAPPENED to change it as my internet is all messed up and now it takes 30 seconds to load every page... I'll offer an opinion once my webs are fixed.

You see that orange link up there? The one that says "The Resource"? That's my website. I have a blog, which I am going to use as a mapping diary from now on. Go there and read it.
