This is sooooo cool. I am sooo excited to be in the running for Website of the Month! If you go to our site, www.theweddingmeister.com, take a look at the photography page. I'm especially proud of the PhotoShow.  BTW, vote for me!!   

Keep up the voting everybody! 

Most of my site, FootballBunker.com, requires one to set up an account, so I have created a temporary guest account so you can check it out.

Hope you will give it a go. It may not be as flashy as the other well-design sites, but it has, at least from my perspective, some pretty nice features. If the site interest you, please feel free to create your own account and have some fun during the upcoming football season.

For the programmers/developers out there, the site is built using Java servlets/XML/XSLT. The data is stored in a MySQL database and an XSLT filter is applied to the output of the JSP pages which transforms the XML into HTML.  At the very least, it demonstrates the rather impressive features offered by Lunarpages Basic Hosting plans.

Still need your votes! 

OK...Here's my blurb. :O)

First of all let me say that TheWyvernManor.Com is my very first web site and I entered this competition completely on  impulse!  When I started it a month or two ago I didn’t have the slightest idea how build a web site, but I figured that it would be fun to give my gaming group (which I started in 2007) a place on the web.  It was quite a challenge and actually a rather fun experience (I like puzzles!).  So, after a lot of trial and error, research on the net and posts to various forums, here it is!

BTW, it was supposed to be small! :O)

Because the site is non-commercial, designed for a bunch of gamers and not the general public, it decided to give it a game-like/fantasy ambiance, thus the more linear style (enter via the door and follow the various paths of discovery), the pseudo “Old English” language, the introduction of the manor guard (have you tried the small door yet?), the steampunkesque (is that a word?) Vanarian Ambaric Window (on the “Denizens” page), illuminated letters and the many fantasy/gaming related features on the site.

Once past the doors, initial entry into the site is supposed to be a kind of puzzle and that is why there are no labels on the dragon navigation squares.  You have to mouse over them (like a secret door) to find out where they might take you.

The site has a lot of graphics.  That is due to the fact that I’m a professional artist and…well…I work with pictures more that words.

The site will be updated frequently (especially the “News and Reviews” and “Calendar” sections) so stop by again!

Thanks!

Lianna :O)

Looks like that issue was probably caused by a bad cPanel upgrade.  Should be fixed soon, if not already (by the time you get this message)

Also, lets keep discussion of that issue in this thread:
