@Nightfall - Will happen!

Btw, progress report: I am getting further with all the things I have planned but it will still take some time before the relaunch. There are a lot of things that have to be taken care of and considering the fact that I am already doing 8 hours of pc-work for my job, I don't have the power to do a lot of Realm667-related stuff - you simply have to be patient ;)

Though, I promise, you will be pleased with the results!

Should have a multi-colored theme for the site.
I suffer from photophobia. So any bright colored-display is terror on me. "Old School" Realm667's dark-scheme worked wonders for me. Maybe a dark blue variation. I don't even know what the site looks like, so I can't give any ideas, but that's my piece of the cake atleast.

Also too, I would like to see a more easier-to-find "Project" section, last time, I remember having to search the whole site -- only to find it on the left side of the screen due to not paying attention. Also too, I would not mind seeing on the Project page a 800x600 (or smaller) slideshow with a small caption underneath, along with the map that it's from and what wad.. click on the picture, it brings you to the download page for the wad.

On the front page, I thought it was pretty good. A brief news section, not too cluttered. The Bestiary, Armory, Items, Objects.. all could have a search function, or a filter.
Spoiler: Filter Ideas
Outside of that, I liked the old Realm667. But I wouldn't mind seeing a newer update. Maybe more wallpapers from DooM too!

They're sorted by category. For example, the Armory subsections are Doom-style, Heretic/Hexen-style and Other style. The new layout makes them a bit easier to notice, and as such I'll see what I can do about reorganizing the Armory so it's more consistent as to what goes into what group. And don't worry, the color scheme is still pretty dark, though not as flat (Torm gave me a sneak peek :P).

I doubt that TSoZD resources will be posted before the thing's done (which at this rate won't be for at the very least a year).

Please stop obsessing. It's a closed project for a reason. :|

Are you absolutely sure you want it in such an unfinished state?

I fear we've all at one point in our lives washed up along the shores of ZDoom resources, with no lifeboat and nary a soul around.

Maybe some thought could be given to easily find future updated items to the BEASTIARY, when they are added. Perhaps something like a BEASTIARY log. So far, the only clue, really, was the total number given at the bottom of the page and a small entry in 'What's New', which was not all that helpful.

That's why I suggested that the Beastiary and other sections have their RSS channel.

I've also started adding "last updated" dates, when I've updated entries.
