Hang on , It was working when I posted this message and for all the months I've worked on it :/...
Now it appears as if the webserver isn't responding. It could be that they are upgrading the server at the moment.

I'll figure it out and let you know :/
Sorry for the problem but this is an unpleasant surprise to me.

//EDIT: It seems like it's working again , do you see the same (press CTRL-F5 if needed)

The red text is super hard to read against that dark grey background. Looks like you put a lot of effort into it though, nice job :)

Daaaammnnnn....me likey very very much. The red text doesn't bother me, and I love the layout from what I've seen so far. Good job! I'll have to upload some maps when I get the chance..

Thanks all.
The red text doesn't pose a problem to me , checked it on three diffrent PCs so far.
However , none of them had a flatscreen and they were all trinitrons so it could be that the colors blend too much on other screens , may change the text color if I get more of these comments.

Geo: I'm also adding a map-editing feature. Please hang on with the map uploading , I'm currently converting the whole database. The previous version used the mapnames as filenames , this posed problems (as you experienced :)) , the current one saves the ID numbers and filters out the problem-posing characters too.

I'ts awesome, but I think you should make a seperate link apart from all the other maps for climbing maps. (I'm a climbing map fan)

Hi,

I updated SoldatPage again ;)
Added a rating system for maps so The Geologist's maps can spam my database now ;).
I also restructured the main page with some lists of "Latest Forum Topics" , "10 newest maps/mods" , ...
Aaand the map pages have also been restructured a bit to make place for the rating system.


EDIT: Another update , a newsletter. I'm going to send a newsletter when I have updated several things and added functions. It will also include a list of known bugs I'm working on. I've just sent out the first newsletter to all members , if you want to exclude yourself logon to soldatpage , go to 'Edit my profile' and set 'Receive SoldatPage newsletter' to No.
I'm going to keep it very short so it doesn't get boring :)

Comments are welcome :)
