I'll try to give it a good do-over for the next issue - if need be, it will get pushed back. The second issue needs to be full and big with a lot more content but also look crisper and more real. The...

Yeah except that ABTimes is a completely separate entity yet is tied to Abandonia so why couldn't we? We don't have anything else like it on Abandonia so I don't really see your point.

Well not that many people visit the forum compared to site visits so I do want some sign on the front page when the second issue comes along. Newsposts get pushed down far too quickly with all the...

I'd even wager to say far more than just 10 million considering many people get it from other sources (including pre-packaged games) - DOSBox definitely boosted Abandonware sites. Before, there was...

Hmm, I suggest you don't use any of the non-Adobe viewers. People have reported other problems including text running out of the boxes. Adobe Reader is free anyway and works for Windows, Mac & Linux....

Two words: monitor settings. Some people have really really bad monitor settings where they set them far too dark - contrast or brightness - which will get you into trouble anywhere. I'm afraid it's...

My first design had the stripe (just check the early layout topics) but Fifth and others didn't like it so I dropped it.
