Expect the main site to look a bit up and down recently as I am making some cosmetic changes.

Thats right a new old theme is coming back. The completely black Ebony theme is being remade along with an Ebony Red which will be black and red.


The theme is as usual to a preffered taste. Comments and critique is needed. Are links to dark etc.

This is a very small news update just to announce there will be a new section added to the main website soon.

Just a little bit of important information I feel everyone needs to read.

Must Read!
I have noticed an increase with the number in people who upload games. Thats great! But I've noticed a steep rise in people who think that if they rename a GIF or BMP to .jpg or .png that it is now a JPG/PNG. Wrong.You cannot simply rename a file extension and then believe the new file is of a different format. Please everyone I urge when you make a screenshot or thumbnail please save it in the right format. I know MSPaint is horrible at JPG compression. My advice to you is get a better computer imaging solution or save your screenshots as PNG's.

Uploading your game with wrong file formatted screenshots will mean a much longer time until your game is approved as we fix your screenshot or thumbnail.

Some paint program alternatives you could use:
Paint.net
Irfanview
GIMP

Just Advice
Some people don't seem to understand the importance of a thumbnail. A thumbnail gives you a chance to represent the game before someone clicks on it. So either a good screenshot, or a good logo on a background related to the game works great. What is bad is when people use the same image they used for their screenshot as their thumbnail. You are really limiting yourself there. People are not going to want to play your game if your screenshot does not give a better idea than the thumbnail of what the game is like.
