Website??

Tug, thats what i already said. Devart and the Seve Wittens Pack can be unstickied as they are not of general purpose (IMO).

Killahbite, i dont want to put up a wiki or anything like that. I'd rather like to start with a little house than the empire state building. A good website with a collection of tips and tricks in normal html will do it, later on we still can change this and expand the site.

Considering free webspace, i got a host for mine with 25 megs, no ads or pops. This should be fairly enough for starting the project.

Thats right mx - the only content that needs to be uploaded is new avs packs (if they really need to be included at all). Theres no need for discussion groups and forums etc - although maybe later on perhaps.

I just need content please - who's doing who what where when... please!

I'll open a new Topic for the content, so everyone can write a artikle about whatever he'd like to publish about avs including files and stuff.

If all is done i'll create a website where all that stuff is collected.

Aw, too late to edit. Anyway, i found this free host:


Looks good, doesnt it? And besides, this would offer a possibility to create a avsers forum apart from wadotcom.

Look even for a simple website, a CMS is the way to go...Saves you lots of time in the long run.

It looks good...But i dont trust the name broadiecarpark and it doesnt load the webhost provider page from my computer.For forums this forum is perfect and shouldnt be changed 🙂
UCD : cant you do smth with acko.net so that we can post articles,tips,presets and news ? Like an AVS portal 😉

The server for Acko.net was funded by someone else, so there's a good chance of "no"

looks nice...wonder what the catch is.

has anyone registered the AVS site yet?

hmm...maybe this is NOT the best spot.
read this:


We might want to try this:
http://www.neopages.net/info.shtml It was rated top overall and in features, although it is apparently hard to join. (See the link)

http://www.winampavs.net/ is open
www.avsforums.net is open
avs.com and avs.net are taken
any other suggestions?

To get this, though, we have to 'apply' with an example of our site or something.

Michael that is absolutely great ! Apply for an account and as a reason say that we need a new forum 🙂 Suggestions : avslibrary.com avsportal.net theAVS.com phaze.net 😁

does anyone ever read my posts?

i read it,just that i forgot about it 🙂 Can you give the URL ? This seems like a good idea too,lets see what will happpen.

We have to get content before applying. What we MIGHT want to do is get another free account somewhere else, build up the site (but leave out the PHP that we might need- leave a placeholder), then submit our request.


Oh- we might have to buy a domain...otherwise we will get a subdomian ($name.neopages.com)

its getting harder and harder to find a free sub-domain without ads..
even .tk has ads now.

Phaze we haven't released yet , we're just bulking up content before we release. But we need time to get the avs content sorted anyway.
People are still not reading my comments, i've talked about it and i can get you free hosting for it. The site is called Rock World, music site blah blah, i can get a subdomain for it. www.avs.rockworld....... Hosting problem solved, i can add whatever content wants adding as well, so i host and maintain, that sound alright to anyone.

i can also offer you webspace and database on VISBOT.NET

avs.rockworld.xxx sounds nice.I agree with Raz now 🙂 Michael : on the site it says that they give the domain for free...

.xxx, heh, that should be for porn sites, along with .org(y)
Anyway we just have to do content before we release like i say, the site completely kicks ass so put the information in the site template. So no worries about site design. Trust me, no worries about site design once you see the site you'll know.

www.***.tk does have ads, but you are easily able to remove them. Just log in onto your MydotTK -> click MyDotTK Linker Promo -> select domain -> select "No thank, no banner for me"

and your done :P

Just my two cents...

k...registering right now.

login: avsforums. email will be sent to avsforums@yahoo.com

PM me for the passwords.

Yeah but if the avs site is connected to another music site that will get a lot of people visiting because of the content. They will subsequently think "hmmm, what is this avs thing" then avs gets popular, then winamp releases better version blah blah blah blah.....

i find this point of view pretty naive

I find lack of sleep makes people naive 😉 but i also think that if people visit a music site that they may subsequently browse it and find out what avs is. It can't be bad now can it.

Of course, with it (popularity) comes (bitchy) newbies, so we need to prepare for the flood with the coming of the website...
Still, go with it... I just hope there are some gems out there...
It'll take a lot of work to get AVS quite popular, but from the looks of it, I think most of us are ready 🙂

does anyone have detail knowledge about web designing and stuff?

I know about handling html files, file structure if a site, frames & layers and what goes with that.

I actually have no clue howw to handle cascading stylesheets or script related things, but i will go into that as the project developes.

Don't bother with web designing, i've got it all down, trust me. COpy paste page template = new page. Send screenshot of it soon. Just don't worry about it.
