Very interesting idea. Sort of like fanfiction taken to the next level. I like it very much. If this project takes off, I offer you my keyboard as one of the writers. As for hosting space, that won't be a problem. If one of the existing sites won't take it, we can set up our own. In fact, I think we should set up our own site didicated to this project, to help the entire staff communicate and make regular progress reports. This way, we wouldn't have to bother webmasters of sites like CGEF and TLZ too much (we'd only send them finished episodes), while still giving the project all the attention it desrves. I can find hosting. We can use a free service like Netfirms (or Tripod  ), or I might be able to get us free hosting on good, ad-free space from someone who doesn't really care about things like laws. I know a few people who might do me a favor like this. Edit: I can also be an editor. I tend to be quite the grammar nazi.

Originally posted by getak2003: TLZ would be good, i bet alot of sites would like to have it, because it seems to be a good idea.
i will offer my services as a consultant. school ends tuesday, so i will be free for the next three months. Not everyone visits TLZ, so if this is to be done, how about having it's own website, that the other sites can link to it, and vice-versa. I could have a word with Sean (SB) or Håkon, I know he has oodles of spare space where his site is based, since I pointed him at a decent host. ------------------ Click me! mmm Amy and Leela In Swimwear!

HTML? Web design? *points to self* Yo. We can set up a nice part-private, part-public messege board (Personally, I love phpBB) and an IRC channel (chatroom, for you n00bies out there  ). We can also have a private area on the site where members can store their files and only members can retreive files (passworded access, in other words) - although the simplest way to do this would be through the messege board's private area. We'd still use our webspace to store all the graphics and text files, so some sort of web-based upload system would be necessery. I can brush up on my PHP skillz and set up something of that natrue. Should I set up some sort of sample website, or wait 'till we get enough people onboard (since something like this can't be done with 3 or 4 people)?

did some one say web design?
i can take care of alot of that. i know alot of the html tricks and such to making a good FUNCTIONAL site. i personally do not like sites that have a shit load of happy little GIFs that dance around, but have no content what so ever.
this project seems to more tuned to a text based site, something that is both easy and funtional to do. i see no real place to put pictures and such, unless you want to have other content like episode guides, transcripts, sound, video, etc.
we could ask some of the artists out there to illistrate the fan fictions, but that will never be alot.
this all depends on how much we want this thing to do. i personally want for there to be just bios of the characters, MODERN bios, that tell of what has happened to them up to the point at which we take over the story. like events of time keeps on slippin, and ohter things like that. besides bios we can have a simple episode guide that lists every episode and tells exactly what happened in it, but i say we should follow KISS Keep It Simple Stupid.
this site will never be able to compete with the larger more interactive ones. so i say just have enough to get the new futurama fans up to speed with the series, and events that lead up to this fan fiction series.

By "framework" I meant the very basics - some webspace, a chatroom, and a forum. I'm not planning on taking any more liberties on my own. Speaking of which, it's all ready! I have a forum set up for us here: futuramaseasons.has.it FuturamaLivesOn is a name for the project that me and Allen seem to have agreed upon. This can be changed, of course. Anyway, those who are interested in the Project can now head over to our board and discuss/suggest related matters there. No need to be confined to a single thread or hijack a part of PEEL that way. What should the site look like/contain? Who wants to do what? Who's bringing the beer? Etc. EDIT: Ok, I finally got it working! If you're interested in helping out, PLEASE join and chek in! Let's not let an idea this great die... please?

Access to the original webserver has been blocked. I changed webservers on July 11th. You're probably still using the old url. Just use http://futuramaseasons.has.it , and it should work.
