Ok I think we seriously need to make the site better. And then I'm reffering to looks but also information. Because if we have a good site, it's possible that more people will think; "hey these guys ARE really doing something!"
But to realise this we first need someone who can make a website work (the scripting) unfortunally I can't do this, because I haven't gotten computer lessons on school(next year they start) and I haven't learned it myself. So if someone can do this stuff and wants to do it, please tell us in this topic.
Well for the looks, I can do a large amount of things, but of course also here some help would be aprecciated.
So... I don't know if more of you guys think the main site needs improvement, but personally I think it would be better for advertising the game...

I know what you mean Fossil. I have the same problem.
We'll move this somewhere where everyone can access it, because there could be a non-mod who is able to make websites.

I could make a layout for it. I know some coding. Frames, Iframes, tables, div aligning, some CSS..

Anyways, how would you want to set the site up?
I have some sections planned already:
Home (link) Forums (link) Pokémon Taion Hohpo Johto Trainers Items Berries Attacks (???)
That's a list I can come up with. I can't think right now that much, because I just woke up.
And for Pokemon, I feel we shouldn't give all the stats out yet. For the time being we should just show the sprite, the name, type, species, height, weight, and the Pokedex entry. Then, when the game gets released, we can add all the stats, so people can make their teams.

And the trainers should be organized better, and we should find a way to develop the region sections more. Perhaps add little links to each city which brings you to the information on the city. Not a total walkthrough, but some basic information

And I guess we would make up a description for the city as well? Something like "Palmtree City is known for it's warm weather and countless palmtrees" ?
We could also place that official art all around the site.

I think the "types" part needs major editing,(read other topis about site)

But the types part is so negligible. We don't exactly need them, and your organizer wasn't that much different from how it actually was. The types will probably just be listed, with no information on them that much.
Maybe we should create another one of those Type charts, showing weaknesses and strengths.
Exactly what I was thinking V. Along with that, we can decide what the signs in the city say. You know, like New Bark Town is the place where new beginnings grow (or something like that...can't remember it that well)
The official art is a good idea.

Well maybe we could also make a legnd-story about Albinos and the jade rabbid(forgot it's name) and put it on the site? Then the story-line gest more clearly and if it's written well it may cath some attention to the game.

I could help with the site if you want, I've been making sites for about 5 years now, so I know quite a lot about it. I would first suggest to get another hoster, freewebz doesn't offer enough hosting space, brandwith, and you don't get ftp access to upload your site. I suggest we use Deluxnetwork's free hosting. My site's temporally hosted there too, untill my real hoster has fixed her problems. If you want to see my site right now, this is the adress: host.deluxnetwork.com/~pwaes/, www.pokemonwaes.tk or pokemonwaes.co.nr should work again soon too. The forum however is temporally offline. I all made it by myself.

yeah, we can use ANY host, then attach pkmntreasures.tk to it. I think pokemontreasures.tk has to stay attached to its current domain, unless theres a way to change it...

If you wish, I could make you a php pokedex like I did for ppc: www2.iro.umontreal.ca/~breuleuo/ppc/ (note that it's the only site I have ever made, and that I much prefer functionality and sobriety over bells and whistles) I'd have to change it to fit in levels for natural moves, a drop-down listbox and maybe sorting and filtering features, but that can surely be done in under 2-3 hours. I can even throw in old pokemon as a boni, though I don't have their level-up info. I'm not using up my quotas for that though so you'd have to find a decent host that supports php in order to put one up. In any way, I think it would be quite practical for maintenance.

No prob, we just put a redirecting page on your old host. Whoever comes there will automatically be edirected to the new adress then. But really, if you want the complete site being on it's old host, with only seven pages you can't do very much and the brandwith limit at freewebs free hosting plans is much to low. If you get more than about 200 guests a month, the brandwith is used if you have a big site.
The pokedex is great.
And I'd love to webmaster it, but I suppose that's a question I have to ask Shadolf.

why worry about the site now?
a simple page advertising the upcoming game will suffice, no need to go into details
