This isnt just a small update to the project progress...
WE HAVE NOW CHANGED OUR NAME
we are now known as ANIM8OR STUDIOS
with this we have opened our website to the public
http://www.anim8orstudios.com please visit the site and view our gallery and showreel :D
we welcome newbs and vets alike to join our project!

Two points :
1 - check your site in various browsers, it doesn't render in Mozilla
2 - check your site for spelling and grammar mistakes, there are plenty
-
1- it was tested in firefox... it does render
2- were constantly updating the site so dont worry about them
-
While I applaud the efforts put into the site, I suggest you be careful about saying "don't worry about them." You really should consider fixing such mistakes as mixing up "your" and "you're." That sort of blatant oversight indicates a lack of "polish," and can affect how seriously people take you.
-
what i ment was, there being sorted, so dont worry about them, the people in ou forum are always pointing them out and there fixed in the next weeks update..
but as for saying it doesnt render in firefox... 99% of the people in the forum use firefox and have no problems at all!!! and i presonally only use firefox so i know it works, its IE that there are 2 minor issues with it
-
Firefox works fine. Its a nice website.
Good gallery. Spelling isn't too much of an issue... at least you are getting it sorted eh? :)
-
Seems to me feeg, that a lot of members from across the forums seem to have issues with Spelling! Perhaps its because most of them spend nearly all of their time at school!
Rudy: I refer you back to a comment you passed on Anim8or.org re spelling, and the like
Since the Anim8or community consists of members from throughout the world, INCLUDING those for whom English is not their first language, it seems to me that we all need to be tolerant of foibles that ALL of us make with language, in general. And, as far as Queen's versus American(ized) English, it also seems to me that what matters most is that one can understand what the author is trying to convey, even if'n it ain't fit 'n' proper inglish, just so's ya kin figger it out. But maybe that's just me...
Site Looks great to me so keep at it
-
well, i think it's a very cool website (just wish i was that good at web design...), and although i'm unlikely to be able to get involved myself, i'd like to wish everyone who is involved all the best for the project! ;)
now, speling msitakes are one thnig, but how bad is it to tpye wihtout any cpatials? i've hadrly uesd any on tihs froum... :P

Thanks for all the supportive comments, hpoefully there will also be a forum up there for people who wish to create their own project, and keep it organised in their own special place! And soon there will be some tutorials put up, so people can hone their skills with our tried and tested ways hehe

Oops, ya caught me. Nonetheless, those for whom English is their primary language should still strive to use proper word forms, spelling, and grammar. This is PARTICULARLY important on a website, where the primary intent is to draw people's interest by means of professional-looking and attractive content, not simply to communicate and exchange ideas and information, like in a forum.

hehe does this count for people who have dislexia and can't spell... lol, but a lot of the people from this project arent from uk OR america, the director is from croatia and we have several people from other countries, and i dont have a spell checker and it can be hard sometimes to correct ALL errors
the times i use a spell checker it doesnt check grammar so you're and your wont be changed, and the only way i can see this sometimes is from other people commenting on the forum, so please
id rather people let me now and it'll be updated in the next update, than they criticise our hard effort to make arguably the biggest thing ever attempted in anim8or!

Feeg ---
I'm not trying to be critical. As I stated in my original post, I applaud the efforts you (and others) have put into the site. I know it can be a lot of work. It was just an observation on my part, and my comments were based solely on the supposition that SOME of the people you wish to attract may be put off if the site does not appear to treat the subject matter as seriously as THEY would expect.
Suffice it to say that as long as the site serves your intended purpose, and draws the sort of people you want, then you've succeeded, regardless of how it appears to me or anyone else. So, you're entitled to take anything and everything I say with a grain of salt. After all, as an intelligent, thinking individual, you are entirely at liberty to exercise your own free will. So keep up the good work, and good luck with your endeavors.
