Also I still have to figure out how to set up our e-mail accounts on the new host.

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 08:19 AM)

As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

So when's the black theme coming back??

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

"Should"

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 07:27 AM)

That DNS took longer to propagate properly than I thought it would. *Now* we should be back for good, though.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:48 PM)

Or it might be because Bluehost *finally* got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:08 PM)

Looks like Bluehost yanked our DNS since our hosting account expired. That's why the site went down a while ago. But as you can see, it's fixed now.

@  Misk : (23 July 2015 - 04:55 PM)

No, they do not.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 04:27 AM)

The goggles do nothing?

@  Misk : (22 July 2015 - 05:50 PM)

My eyes.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 12:24 PM)

Looks like forum uploads might have been broken since last night. That should be fixed now too.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 01:33 AM)

Heh, whoops! Server went down for a few mins when I borked the config. Looks like it's back up now.

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 09:09 PM)

It looked like a napkin

@  ILOVEVHS : (21 July 2015 - 09:04 PM)

Fan-fuckin-tastic.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:25 PM)

As for the beaver picture while the forum was down, I think Tim drew it. On a napkin.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:24 PM)

No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am *so mad* at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they *still* haven't answered it!

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 06:37 PM)

Maybe he did that himself

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:25 PM)

Say, who made the cute picture of Beaver Chief?

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:24 PM)

Finally!

@  RedMenace : (21 July 2015 - 05:02 PM)

Woooo! The site's back up! Three cheers for Kef!


Sonic looks like Felix The Cat in the show.

Sonic's design is based the Felix/Mickey Mouse/Bosco style character, so yeah.. no surprise.

That design sheet is from the games, ie Japan though, so... it's pretty much the exact opposite of what Korben said. The games bear greater resemblance to Felix/whatever than the cartoon, not the other way around.

Oh..by Japanese I thought he meant the Sonic X/Sonic Adventure style, which doesn't look as Felix-y anymore. Satam-styled Sonic is still close enough to the Sega Genesis-era Sonic that I can see the influence, though.

Funny, I was watching the old 1991 Felix movie and was thinking about he he vaugly resembled Sonic. It's in the eyes.

Fun trivia: Milton Knight, who was responsible for the visual style of AoStH, went on to do The Twisted Adventures of Felix the Cat, which was a [really] loose continuation of that movie.

I remembered the Felix Cat movie in 1991 when i was 10 and that was fun.

But he's been around since the late 20's, didn't you know that?

Actually he's older than that. If it wasn't for Felix, the Feline Charlie Chaplin, we wouldn't have Mickey or most likely any of the funny animal characters we know and love today.

He was redone in the 60s or 70s (can't be bothered to look up which) in an animated TV show which is what pretty much all of the subsequent stuff including the NES game has sprung from.

And Snively's head looks like a light bulb. And Robotnik looks like an egg. And Antoine probably has two hair combs - brown and blonde.
