5.8.2008:

Hello everybody,

Finally, here is new update of my Atari site. Many things have changed, I mainly focused on new design, additional, more accurate data and ever growing libraries. I decided to use 1024 pixels by horizontal axis as this is more or less standard by now, if not too small by today's standards. The site was tested with FireFox 2.0~ (Windows version), Internet Explorer 6.0~ and Internet Explorer 7.0~ browsers. JavaScripts must be enabled for features like searching facility to work properly. It may seem that some things are missing at first glance, but don't worry. I am in the middle of rescanning of all previously checked online archives and libraries plus rereading magazine stuff. I also have some magazines at home now to feel the time they were published, with all those great articles and ads.

Here is a list of more important changes:

- New layout
- More menu choices
- More detailed and accurate data of Atari entries
- Reorganization of HTML pages in directories
- Additional libraries (pictures, character sets, with latter without screenshots yet)
- Currently nearly 200 BELLCOM disk images checked
- Page 6 Public Domain library disk images checking in progress, with other magazines and PD libraries to start with...

Notes:

- I added the facility to identify completed and unfinished Atari entries. One way to identify the status is the exclamation mark in detail page for specific item. You can notice the second way in the sorted lists of items. For example:

Red item means that not satisfied amount of data for specific entry is found and therefore not completed yet.
Blue item means I thought current data is enough to be shown on detail page, including entry screenshots.

Above complies only to Games, Software and Source code sections.

- Games sections #, A and B are mostly completed, with some updates in other sections
- Currently maximum of 6 screens are shown for specific game / other software. Other screens will be added in next instalments.
- Sorted lists of games with thumbnails only show 3 screens for every entry
- Searching by publisher / developer / PD is only available in Games, Software and Source code sections
- Short item descriptions will begin to appear in next updates
- Demos section is currently without image screenshots
- Some download links to specific entries will not work if the host is down (for example, I found the Holmes server is not working. Down temporarily?)
