Looking for help with a revived Halo website

Post by Captain Cornflake »

I'm honestly not sure where to post this, so I figured the Cafe would probably be the best place. If I've got it wrong, if a mod could move it, that would be great.

Anyways, for those of you who knew me, I used to run a Halo website way back in the day called HaloInformer. Well, after being gone from the internet for over a year, I've decided to bring it back.

http://www.haloinformer.com

It isn't up to its former glory just yet, but we do have most of the hard work done. Forums, gallery, news, as well as complete integration into another gaming site I run. PHP is fun.

Anyways, the site officially goes "Live" today, sort of as my Christmas gift to everybody who wanted it back. However, it is still in need of some work. And so I'm asking other places in the Halo community to help build back up this old site.

Namely, we are in need of content. Guides, screenshots, wallpapers, icons, ect. You name it, we want it. We are refocusing on bringing together a true Halo resource, with everything most fans would probably need. (Excluding, at least for the time being, mods, though nothing rules out modding tools like the HEK, and guides on how to use them)

We are also looking to publicize throughout the community. If you run a Halo site, a news post or even a simple link can work wonders. (And we always link back to our supporters!)

Do you enjoy graphic design? Great! Maybe you could contribute a few avatars or buddy icons, or even wallpapers! Love to draw? That is great, as we also are opening a fan art gallery.

If you run your own site, we can even make contributing worth your while. We give credit whereever credit is due, and we'd be more than happy to link to your site(s) in the credits for whatever you decide to do. It may not help your traffic and page rank now, but in the next few months we plan on growing quite a bit. And your contributions could help that growth.

Even simply posting in the forums would help, as we try to get the community back off the ground. Sadly, we have no backups of our previous forums from 2005, so emailing all our old members is out of the question, making getting this place going all the more important!

So, if you wish to help out, let me know. Suggestions and tips are also more than welcome. Much thanks. :)

If it is activity you're looking for, try making some friends here, since a friend would be more likely to listen to you than the general public. Now, if you need a friend feel free to add me on MSN (it's on profile) or xfire (gh0570fchurch), I wouldn't mind helping you out a bit with what I can.
