Site
History

This site was not put together in one day, it took several, believe me! Unfortunately, I've deleted all the early "Message Log" (early News Log) messages, but I'll try put the most important stages of the development here from what I can remember.

O	k, it started out way back when I first played with a site on the free webspace-place Angelfire. I had the Idea for a website, totally concentrated on Worms. Unfortunately I got tired of Angelfire (it was very basic, and your sites looked quite dull) and the Worms site

was never done. At that stage I had no connection to the internet at home, only at school. Then after a year or so, I got a connection at home, but bad enough I didn't got provided webspace from the account I had. Anyway, I started work on site again, but yet it was not a Worms site, it was some weird Star Wars (there it is again :) theme thingy with reviews on games and other things. I got tired of that aswell and now I remembered the idea I had at first, the ultimate Worms website! Some months later I finally fixed the connection that now provides me with the space that this file you're reading is on. I started to work on my "Boggy B's Ultimate Wormpage" site sometime in early May this year (98) and I used .GIF pictures like seen down below on the frame index to the left instead of the text I use now. It loaded slower, but I made/compiled the pictures myself and it looked... well if not cool, atleast it truly was original. I had just a small HTML knowledge and I learned much from other sites and from my friends. In the very beginning I also used all the background images I could find, all from Worms2.com. Finally around March 29, 98 I uploaded the site for the first time using a ftp program.

When I came this far with my site, the only Worms sites I know of was www.worms2.com and Team 17's Worms page. It was first later I discovered major sites like the Allotment and KilJaeden's. More and more sections were added and I improved the site in many manners as time progressed. I added a real counter and mailed KilJaeden and the Allotment staff LOTS of times to get them to link my site so I could get some visitors. My site got linked, and so, I got some visitors. Many things happened here until I changed it somewhere in July so it looked like it does today. I also changed my name and therefore I had to change the name of this site.

Well, I guess that's about it. Not much of a story you may say, but this site is still young and it is being improved and updated all the time! I've got some pictures below to show you what the site was like In the beginning:

The buttons placed in the left frame to make you get to the sections of the site, looked like this:


And the titles was made of cheap un-antialiased .GIF images, the News title looked something like the following picture, and it actually was a good part of this, people who didn't have the Stencil font got view them the way they were meant to. Ofcourse the titles load much faster and they are anitaliased now, but that font problem is still bugging me.


And finally the main picture I used was stolen straight from Worms2.com:
