DG II Easy Uploads

[Methos]

I'm curious, would it be a good idea to ask TF if we can have a "Uploads Files" specific to DGII? I know my personal files section fills up quickly with all my SGOTM games and is cleaned out regulary. It would be nice to have a location for DGII files so we don't have to use our own personal space. It would have to be monitored so that it wasn't abused, but it is an idea.

I thought about placeing this in SF, but felt I should get every citizens opinion prior to asking TF.

Sounds like a good thing to ask. It would be really helpful if all the DG files were in one place, and not scattered through all the user names.

Many of the old demogame files are alas, lost ever since TF wrote that file deletion script.

 

[Methos]

Well than, should we write up a proposal for TF?

Or perhaps some ftp space like the HoF and GotM have?

 

[Chieftess]

There is a demogame.civfanatics.net.

I could see if I can find a php upload script. Then I'll have to see if I still have the FTP info - I should...

If you have the FTP info, then we could give each officials some room, and each turnchat could have a small section including saves. Making things in html/php is easier than on the forums IMO.

That was the original idea way back when.

If I remember correctly the DG2 website died though, for some reason. Whoever was maintaining it stopped updating it I think.

I have craploads of webspace. I could just write up a quick script and an html page for everything. I'd back up everything once a week.

 

[dutchfire]

I wouldn't mind helping out if we decide to use the site again. I'd prefer the demogame.civfanatics.net adres over any other. I can do HTML and some PHP. We could give every office a page, and every turnchat.

So Chieftess, have you still got the info so we can start working?

 

[Falcon02]

FYI, I've got HTML and PHP experience, though my PHP skills are slightly more specialized. Never did forum type code, or pulling data from a database. Though... I'm sure I could learn.

 

[Hyronymus]

I do have some PHP + MySQL experience, I even created an entire database-driven membersarea once. I also administrate multiple forums.

Chieftess, what's the verdict on this?
