Why I am an asshole...

(took longer than expected to find those topics)

Twice has Tom typed out my name in a front page news post. He was even nice enough to send me $100 and a free tee shirt (randomly selected my ass, I had an exchange of PMs with him a few days before) to me. And how do I show my thanks? Let this site grind to a halt and hardly spend any time on NG. That's how.

For that I am an asshole.

What is my excuse? Well for one, I'm in college now. That's not a bad reason. But being in college didn't stop me from working on other things. Things like Tutorial Explosion, my tutorial site that is less active than a site that does not exist. My blog - built from a new notepad ++ file. But mostly, I've just been busy jerking off with TF2.

What does this mean and why am I posting this? I plan on changing a few things. I really want this site to be as it was back in the day. When people knew about it, when it went down and there were more than 3 different topics about it being down! One of these days I will push a decent update through. I don't think I'll be able to pull of anything so big it'd draw any more traffic, but at least it would be something. Right?

Some kind of update.

Posted by: Aksumka

I'm sorry for the lack of anything here lately guys. I've been busy finishing up Tutorial-Explosion, my tutorial site. I've spent far too long having this site not finished, so it feels great that now it is just about all done!

I did manage to update a few things over here however...
Pages - Got a new layout and some organization. I need some help however, more on that down the post.
Levels - The usual update, plus names of B/P ranks.
Logos - Also the usual update.
I also fixed the broken links around the site. That should be an end to the .net links now!

I know I told you guys that I would update a lot more, and for not doing that I am sorry. I will get to updating everything sooner or later.

Now, I need some help. At the bottom of the pages page you will notice what I am sewing back together. With the exception of Chinagrounds, I am missing a lot of images. I have had a bounty out on these images in The Hunt for a while now, but no one has come forward with anything. Attached to this post are some screenshots of the work in progress of these pages. If you can help me find the missing images, I will send you some old school NG stickers!

Yes that's right. I'm sending out stickers again! I only have 20 left to send out. I will send them to anyone who can help fill in the blanks here, even if you already received stickers from me in the past!

Post what you find here in this topic. Even if it is a screenshot, it might be able to help me (providing it is not scaled down or bad quality). Once you have posted something, I will PM you over at NG asking for some information. If I don't PM you, or respond to your post you can assume one of two things: One, I'm dead or two, you did something wrong.

I really hope I can get rid of some of these stickers. I mean they are just sitting here in this drawer not doing anything. Good luck guys! Hope you can dig some good stuff up!

Next update

I am sorry it has been so long since I pushed out a big update. It's not that I've been busy either. I'm just lazy right now. So lazy in fact that I am going to ask you guys what you want the next update to include!

So post what you would like to see in the next update and I'll see if I can stop being lazy and make it happen!

Pico Day, NGA Birthday, Updates, Wikigrounds, Oh my!

Posted by: Aksumka

Happy Pico day everyone!
On this day 2 years ago, I officially launched the NG Archive! Since then, the layout to the site has not changed at all, but the BBS layout was improved greatly! See what it once looked like!

In celebration of both Pico Day and the second birthday of the NGA, I pushed out an update! For the first time in a few month something was updated! I'm sorry for the lack of regular updates, but school does take precedence over this site. In a few weeks I'll be done and on summer vacation. Then I hope to start updating regularly again.
As for this update, check out the logo page! I hope that later today I will expand both the Pico Day and April Fools pages to include recent material, but don't get your hopes up.

I hope some of you have notice that a wild link to Wikigrounds has appeared at the top of the site! Our very own Zack has taken charge of the site and brought it back to life! So be sure the check it out!
