I would think the next step would be to have homepages. thewolfweb.com/usernameimages could be all stored in the photo gallery. no other media is needed for a page anyway.you could do the uploading the page similar to the images as in one would choose the html files to uploadit would be quite cool to be able to select a local directory and it would upload the whole directory -> instant publishing.

or username.thewolfweb.comi could see this as a great reason to pay the premium price, maybe even a monthly fee, depending on how much traffic you'd have. great idea mdaldrich, there are lots of people that want a webpage but don't want to pay some domain service for a name, and also have to pay a hosting service.

That's great. Who's paying for the webspace? How about the bandwidth?That's what I thought.If you're an NC State student, you already have webspace anyway.[Edited on October 3, 2001 at 4:20 PM. Reason : Bah.]

hence the monthly fee frosh.

We have a grand total of 24 paying premium subscribers. The number of people willing to pay for a website hosted on the Wolf Web is likely smaller than that. I doubt the bosses would think it's worth the trouble.

good point, i didn't realize there weren't that many premium subscribers... I would do it, but I don't post a whole lot.

is there an irc chat room for the wolf web. maybe they could incorporate a web interface for that, i'm pretty sure i've seen something like that before, it would take a lot of arguments and just plain simple questions people ask out of the lounge/other areas.... yes, this would defeat the purpose of a message board, but some topics i've seen just belong in a chatroom[Edited on October 3, 2001 at 4:26 PM.

back when tww was small, I suggested this.I think the logistics of server use and space became a problem.

yea especially with some peeps on here having real grapic and video intensive sites...we would probably exceed the allotted bandwidth permonth.
