Okay. I think I got the site under control for real this time. It isn’t pretty, but I’ll work on the cosmetics after I get everything set up right.
I want to thank Lorehunter from the chatbox for uploading all the old pages for me. I have never seen such a complete archive of the older version pages. I’m going to set up an external site to display these for the sake of history, but I don’t want to add them to this installation of Emerald Winter, in case people get confused about what’s canon and what’s not.
I lost these pages in their original format thanks to the “perfect storm” of bad luck I had around 2006 or 2007, I’m not sure which year. Anyway, I didn’t have access to the internet for several months because our cable company couldn’t get the line fixed (this was before wifi was everywhere). During that time, I also had a hard drive failure. The backup files I had got corrupted somehow over the years, to where a few aren’t readable. And during all that, the hosting company I was using went MIA. The site just poofed for a long time. I didn’t know who I could contact to get the domain back. When I finally did get to the registrar, they wanted to charge a $200 fee to renew the domain name. I didn’t have that kind of money. I’ve only gotten the name back recently.
Anyway, I’m glad somebody out there saved it so that I can at least point and say “there’s that comic I did in high school” haha.
