I have updated the SVN's on the BuildBox this morning and uploaded fresh copies to the LANBox files area. PHX3 was not updated as the latest changes are not significant enough to warrant me uploading about 1 GB of data to ensure everything is correctly updated. The most notable change was the inclusion of Expression 2 into the wire SVN. Expression 2 no longer needs to be downloaded separately. If you would like the latest SVN but don't have SVN installed on your PC you can download Wire here...

The LANBox is now complete! Most of you probably thought it was finished before, but it wasn't. I had plans of doing up the graphics ever since I changed the colours. Anyway, this time it's actually complete and looks quite impressive in comparison. The finished style is a mish-mash of the 1950's and modern styles. It's simple yet uses 50's style colours and adverts with a touch film grain and a plasterboard type texture here and there. A long with the new style I have also taken on board many of the suggestions give to me by many of you since the site was first changed. The homepage is now less cluttered and all of the content blocks are moved to the right of the page. The server ticker has been refined and now takes up a fraction of the space while still delivering the necessary information...

OK, most of you are probably thinking "blaknite has lost his marbles once again" but I assure you this is not the case. What I have done is to go through the whole site again with Internet Explorer and Firefox open. The LANBox should now be identical on both of these web browsers. For a full list of fixes read on.....

Over the last 24 hours I have completely rebuilt the LANBox Developments map. The concept of the map remains the same but the map has been rearranged, changed and remodelled. The underground lab is now far more organised and fits together a lot better. The server is currently running the new map, if it's not just ask an admin to change it over. You can download the new map here...

The servers I'm hosting are now live and good to go. Become a space traveller on the Spacebuild server or bust some skulls in CSS. The choice is yours. The Counter-Strike: Source server is a 10 slot server with a map rotation of all the standard maps. First to 5 rounds wins. The Garry's Mod Spacebuild server has full life support, Wire, Stargate and PHX3 and is running Sb_Gooniverse. This server has a 5 player limit. Hope to see you all there!..

Ok it has come to my attention after reading the first few submitted surveys that most of you have not noticed the big image links on the main page. These are the feature articles I was speaking of. Feel free to suggest content and ways to improve these articles. An archive of them can be found here...

The servers are back for good this time. Check the Server Info page for the IP addresses. If you face any problems please report them to me so I can get them fixed. Have fun guys!..

I have contacted Quadeye by phone this evening and asked a few questions about the servers. It seems they are not yet ready. Their team is still actively working on setting up the new servers which should be ready some time tonight. Once I receive the notification email, I will pass on the new server IP's. Hopefully tonight will be the last night without the servers...
