Futurama Database

[:]

Futurama Database is a Futurama Website by me, Lee  What do you think  http://www.webspawner.com/users.futuramafanatic/

[#1 :]

please please PLEASE don't use webspawner when you're making a website. Webspawner really sucks.
Use something else, like tripod.co.uk

[#2 :]

I get a 404 anyway.

[#3 :]

A misplaced dot might be the problem.

I will try tripod. I don't know when though! 

[#6 :]

It's cool that you're making a website, but get some substance.  There weren't any images, just links and words...

Today we have a new button, Futurama Rocks Online. It's the best U.K Futurama website.

I know everyone is entitled to their own opinion but ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!

[#8 :]

Hmm, I guess FSAC, ANSTATMAW, One And Only Bender and The Fry Hole moved out as well.

*nods*

I'm planning to do ann episode guide page and some more things, I can put images on and this is one reason why I'm looking for somewhere better!

[#11 :]

Don't bother with an episode guide. CGEF has one, and it's not really going to be beaten. That and when was the last time you looked at an episode guide?

[#12 :]

I looked at one just today actually aslate.

[#13 :]

Well, that's just odd, but most Futurama fans aren't in need of an episode guide, and almost every site has one. Try and get something original.

[#14 :]

Yeah they are, I can't always remember which the ACTUAL episode name when I'm trying to illegally download episodes! 

[#15 :]

It's not illegal. Well, technically it is. But FOX is too lazy to put them on DVD in the USA, so they owe us.

Yea, but GotFuturama.com have the big list. I know when i need a name i go there.

[#17 :]

yeah, I was GONNA edit my post saying that I goto GotFuturama for that stuff, but do I look like someone who's not lazy?

[#18 :]

Well, as the owner of a Futurama website you really have to know which fansites are the best. I only see links to other sites, but all you seem to have is one news page. It's not much of a database.

[#19 :]

Well actually Chris, Webspawner are not a good group. Plus Aslate have you looked at your E-mail yet?? I've done Pictures for you.   
 Anyway, I've I'm going to make my website better or change the website advisers I'm going to need some tips!
 So let's see what you've got:

I really Need to have a look at CGEF for some framgrabs to do!   

[#20 :]

I have, i've seen them. The problem is i'm very busy, i've got alot of school work, and alot of coursework, so The Fry Hole's updates are very irratic. They'll get put up during the next update, but i'm not guaranteeing when.

[#21 :]

Thank You and if you want to see my Futurama pictures go to Lee'sFuturamaPictures Thank You 

[#22 :]

Let's go back to the tips. Let's see what do think:

Best UK site my ASS.

One And Only Bender and The Leela Zone are the best sites.

I don't like your site Lee I'm afraid.

[#24 :]

YOU have a biased opinion!

[#25 :]

And TLZ is hardly a UK site. Okay, Gort is a longtime member of the team, but I believe it's Leandro actually doing the coding.

And it's URL is Leela.com.ar

[#26 :]

Ummm... Although Leo does deal with the layout coding and some other stuff that involves CGI, he's not alone in the coding sphere of things here at TLZ. I'm certainly aware of HTML, etc; at least the last time I checked, I was.

Boy, haven't you killed my self-worth. 

But, yeah, Leo's from Argentina, Kenneth's from New Zealand, Kristen is from the US, Sebastian is from Poland, while I'm from the UK. So, that makes it 20% UK.

[#27 :]

Well that's great, most of the Futurama Websites are from the uk, I am Futurama Rocks Online,TLZ...

[#28 :]

How could i improve my website? Getting with other group, anything please tell me!

[#29 :]

What's the link for your site? I clicked earlier and it didn't work.

Anyway, The Fry Hole is 100% UK based, it's even hosted in the UK. Infact the webmasters are both under 18 too.

[#30 :]

First of all decide what your site should be about. So far it's just a few links and some text, not much of a website.

There are plenty of opurtunities: a general Futurama site (like CGEF, but those are common and hard to compete with), a character site (we still need a Farnsworth, Hermes, Cubert, Zapp/Kif site), in short pick a theme and be the best at that is usually better than doing a little of everything.

Make some content, original content. If you ask them politely, existing sites might allow you to use a picture or two, but visitors will only come back if your site contain something they can't see or get elsewhere. Make the content yourself, and the more the better.

Don't announce your site before it works properly (nothing is more annoying than a site consisting only of 404's), and has a adequate interface. It don't have to be superproffesional like CGEF, TLZ, TFP etc, but should at least be easy to use and well-arranged.

Just my 2 cents. Good luck with the site.   

[#31 :]

I agree with all of Teral's comments, I decided from the start to build a fan-art site around my work.  Then I thought it would be a nice idea to allow works from those who have helped me get going.

At the moment the site is 100% English, although that is likely to change if Little Miss joins.  Also I maybe on the move server and link wise, as I have been given an old unused virtualave account to use.

Why do people link to TLZ, when it has no links to here, mystifies me, when there is TFP, CGEF, FSAC and others that get the same artwork.

Because they love us? :P
