Guild of Writers

You have to be in the registered members group to be able to post in there. I think you send a PM to Tsar Hoikas to be added.

For now if you want you can post here and I will copy it over there.

No need for a PM, just go to your User Control Panel, choose the groups tab, select "Representatives" and click the "Submit" button to the right of "Join selected"

I think this site might get more traffic if the design were improved upon a little (increased contrast, accessibility, etc.). Might I be able to help with that aspect at all?

Are you using the "guildofwriters" style (lots of black and red)? I have a much better time with the standard "prosilver." You can change it in your Control Panel's Board Preferences tab with "My board style:".

I actually was referring to the texturu.org site.

I like the 'texturu' design and I've used it too, and my opinion is that the issue of 'not-so-many-users' depends on it's not being so easy to find. So if you just can place a link here, I think more people will find it.

Thanks to jojon for uploading the very first sound file to the server.
Looks good, and sounds good.

Unfortunately it was rather uniform in pitch, so I never got to see the fancy colurs. :)

Just in case you are wondering - or missing the texturu service - I sadly have to inform you that the account has been currently disabled.
This happened because the provider got an abuse mail, telling that there was a DoS attack initiated from the texturu server to a different server (somewhere in romania), so they unplugged the connection.
Seems the server has been compromised (hacked).
I can request to reactivate the server again, but I'm hesitating because I want to know first what exactly is the best procedure to detect whats happening when the machine is running again (sort of listing running processes, detecting outgoing traffic and such) and I want to be sure to know how I can disable the malicious activity.

Really sorry guys.

(If anyone has experiences with detecting/identifying unwanted processes, or blocking unintended outgoing traffic via iptables or whatever, additional advice is greatly appreciated.)

See your PMs.
