Site
I've added something that I wanted to add since a long time ago. Now, there's a music player on the site!
Just check the bottom of the left menu, and click on one of the Lion
King musics that you can listen to! I will progressively add new Lion
King musics into this playlist.
If this is possible, that's thanks to Deezer.com which is a free and legal streaming way to listen to musics.
1 commentThere have been many little updates on the site recently, but I didn't make a news about them.
As you've probably noticed, some of the members on the site will be able to post news on the site; they will focus on the things happenings on the site, could it be contests or a selection of the interesting articles posted.
I've programmed a new search engine.
The previous one used Google, so it wasn't really dedicated to
searching on the site. I've made one that should be enough exhaustive
for you to search about anything concerning The Lion King or whatever you wish
to search. For easier [...] Read more!
4 commentsAs you probably noticed, there has been some core changes on the site.
- The most important is that I have changed the link addresses (URLs) of all the pages on the site. I'm sure most of you have fallen onto the "404 error page" at some point...
The reason behind this is to make cleaner links, both for you and for the search engines.
For you, because now the titles of the fanfics, the names of your fanarts, or even the member names in the profile pages are included in the links, so that it's much cleaner than a list of numbers and parameters.
For the search engines, because they like [...] Read more!
3 commentsI've made a lot of changes on the site. Most changes are invisible
to you - but they allow me to manage the site more automatically and
easily, so that I may consider making other sites in the future.
Changes included are :
- Added support for PNG format for all the images you can send
(fanarts, fanfics, etc...) and added GIF for the parts that didn't
support it.
- Added something to prevent sending gamebooks with less than 10 pages.
- Added a "sketcher" on the fanarts : you can now draw directly on the site!
- Added a "404 error" message page
- Corrected a BIG nasty bug : some people said [...] Read more!
6 commentsSome problems occured with the fanfics : sometimes, a member would report me that his fanfic got corrupted (deleted, or any other kind) and I wouldn't have anything else to say than "retype it", which is of course a problem. So now, I have included a versioning system : each time you save your fanfic, it generates a backup, so that in case of a problem, you can restore a previous version (and not lose all the time you spent writing them!)
Of course it still need you to click on the "save" button, but I'm studying the possibility to make the backups regularly while you're writing.
I've changed [...] Read more!
2 commentsI've finally upgraded the forum to the latest version. (phpBB 3)
And yes, before you ask, this layout is only temporary!
This is the default one, and I find it horrible too - but it was not possible to convert the old one directly, so I will just take some time in the next few weeks to make a new one. For now, let the presentation for later, and concentrate on functionalities.
This update was necessary, because it adds many new functionalities that we were missing, such as sub-forums. Of course they are not all ready to use, I will need to configure the forum a bit. (for example I will add the [...] Read more!
3 commentsYou probably noticed some days ago that the site was migrating to a new server. Well the transition went well, the site is now being hosted on a more powerful machine with less traffic. There should be less slowdowns on the site now.
Also, I haven't been able to do much on the site these days, it's becoming difficult as I have less free time than before. But I'll try to keep up with regular updates. The upcoming one will be to upgrade to the newest version of the forums.
Update list :
- New poll on the site.
- Added something to prevent HTML code into links on the shout box
- Corrected a bug [...] Read more!
5 commentsFinally! Started more than one year ago, I've finally took the time to finish the gamebook section.
Most of you probably wonder, "what is a gamebook?" Well, to that, I'll answer that I made what I consider a good example :
Try and play it! There is one good end, and bad ends. Of course it's a bit short, but it surely is longer to make a gamebook than a fanfic - but a lot more interesting too, if you ask me...
The good part is that all of you can make gamebooks! The send system works, just go to the send page, choose "gamebooks" and follow the indications. The system to [...]
Read more! 9 commentsThere's a new fan section on the site : fan musics! The aim of this section is to post and show musics you created, music that could be used for a film soundtrack. Warning though, before you ask, only musics you composed entirely yourself will be accepted. So I don't expect many people to post there, but at least you'll now have an easier way for the few ones of you who know how to create music, to show it to all the visitors!
This section takes the place of the "goodies" section, which will temporarily disappear.
I have also updated the SPAW editor (the text editor you use for writing a [...] Read more!

Read more! 5 commentsSo I used Vonikx's design, but modified it a bit to be less "greenish" and to stay compatible with Balto Source.
If you still see yellow parts from the previous design, press "CTRL + F5" on your keyboard to refresh your browser cache and see the true new design!
I tried to correct as many things as I could, but there still may be bugs around (especially color bugs), so don't hesitate to report them.
Also, this update comes with more deep changes, [...]
Read more! 31 commentsThe contest is now finished. I'm sorry for everyone who participated into this contest, but I finally decided to make my own design, because I felt the ones you submitted weren't good enough.
So I took some hours to make a good one, that was a hard work but here's the final design that I will put on the site.
I hope everyone will like it! [...]
