I already made the design.
I have a game in the works, although its top secret until its ready to be released.

Why dont we just have an eclipse forum instead of an actual website as yet so we dont have a 14+ page discussion here. We can easily register with conforums (my fav) proboards etc. plus im good at designing forum skins =D

I've got experience with creating/ running forums, although I doubt you'll need any help :P

If you need me too I will try to make you guys a website.

I think that I might still have alais's template that I programmed in HTML although I may try to make one that uses swamp's first eclipse logo.

Look i think Eclipse is more of a title under which any of us can release games under. so we dont actually have to MAKE a group project RIGHT NOW, we can just release our games under the name of eclipse.. yeh?
Now that sounds like a good idea.

Yeah, I liked the second one too. The font is a bit more subtle.

As for an animation, we can have a full circle in white then have it progress to a eclipsed moon, then have the text fade and slide in from opposite sides.

Forums sound good, always a great way to start off. If we can build a flash animated site with at least 4 pages

About: Includes Bios, company description, etc
Games: Completed Projects
News: Self Explanatory
Forums: Self Explanatory

As for boards, we'll need to discuss that as a team. Brainstorming would be the best option.

Btw, are we using the second logo?

I wouldn't use a flash website, I would use a HTML one but whatever.

I will help since I'm apparently part of this.

I say:

1. make a forum, doesn't need to be nice, just a dev forum, I can make one in 15 minutes if you guys want.

2. make a game ( can someone tell the basic "simon" thing.)

3. design a website around the game and us.


Keep it simple do not let it turn it into:

Here a forum link: http://estudios.conforums.com/index.cgi
swamp i used ur banner although it is slightly to big. I also took the liberty of making a simple skin so we dont have crappy default colors, once the website is made ill make a skin to go with it.

Awesome, nice and simple forums with a good design. A great start! :D

Now all we need is a simple template for the site. Anything will do, something like Gan did. The 4 pages above, and we're good! I'll register for the software and we can get developing.

Btw, I have a lot of work to do at school, so don't expect me to be online too often. Just a heads up, I'll probably be online later at night when I finish my work for the day.

I don't think we should focus on a site now, because just reading "we are in the process of making a game..." it pretty boring, we have to make a game first.
