That's right, I'm back! Can't stop, WON'T stop!
So yeah, I'm working on the design and layout for Xylot Themes. I had to re-design it to accommodate banner and text ads, plus I'm sick of having a plain black background for XT. Tell me what you think (click to enlarge):

The bright blue boxes are where ads will supposedly go. That blank calendar will display today's date...or I might replace it with random funny quotes (mainly from bash.org) that I already use on another site of mine.
Yeah! Okay, so Jaton is helping me out making Xylot Themes banners. They're going to be themed (Raw, Smackdown, ECW, and TNA) and it'll be random which one shows up. I don't have the banners on me ATM but maybe Jaton can show what he's got so far when he sees this thread.
Basically, the site will be FREE for all. No download limits, no accounts, nothing! You have the option of donating $10 and you get lifetime access to the Feature of the Day Archives, though that idea is still up in the air. If I implement it, every day (or week?) there will be a feature -- like a non-theme, or a sound clip, or a remixed theme never used, or a version of a theme never used, like Triple H's theme done by Drowning Pool...something that I may have on hand.
If anyone is wondering, "XyBlog" will be a blog I'll keep where I'll think of new ideas for the site and ask visitors what they think (via comments), or solicit ideas from people. "News" will be updates on the site.
I was thinking about eventually expanding Xylot Themes to encompass more of wrestling than just themes...like championship title histories, wrestling headlines (via RSS feed hopefully?), and whatever else anybody can come up with. I don't want it to be a full-fledged wrestling news site with themes secondary, however...the themes will come first, with the other features being secondary.
So yeah, the theme information is already in the database, I just need to upload every theme to a free upload host (yet to be determined). Can anybody suggest some file upload sites that are free, don't limit my total upload space, don't put a time limit on files, and allows me to upload more than one file at a time? Thanks.
