The new site looks a lot better than the old one, so kudos to the guys who have designed it. :3

You have to give kudo's to Wasabi, since he's the one who designed this baby

Thanks Mr_Dark for giving the opportunity to change nicknames later ! its a great idea

Yeah.. this is not where this topic is meant for...

Only post in this topic if you want to have your nickname changed!

Okay, so it might not be Christmas everywhere yet (it's an early present for you people ).

But, I would like to...
WELCOME YOU AT THE NEW WEBSITE!
It took a bit more time than we had planned, but we finally managed to "finish" it. The site still needs more improvement but that can be done while the site is being (ab)used. If you find any bugs or errors please post them in the Site Support forum and we will fix it as soon as possible.

As you might have noticed only the accounts are migrated to the new website. We decided not to migrate all the topics and posts from the old site because of many poor posts. Which brings me to my next point...

Moderators
Yes! We now have TWO people who are willing to carry out the job of keeping the forums/topics clean from spam an other crazy stuff you people post. Their names are Carbon and Tap1on, so you'd better watch out for their ban hammers .

If you don't want them to get angry with you, you'd better read the NEW RULES & GUIDELINES.

New website features
There is a lot to talk about in this short post. But some of the big changes are:
- New forum
- Profiles are extended (more information)
- Create your PU Friends-network
- Better categorization of information page
- New and better forum/IRC rules
- Forum search. Use it before posting!!!

But that's not all...
So I guess you can't wait to start posting, but we have one more surprise for you. As you might know (if you joined us on our chat now and then) we're still very busy with developing Pokemon Universe. As a special for the new website we've created 2 new in-game screenshots!
These screenshots can be found in the top menu: The Game -> Screenshots

Finally
We (the Pokemon Universe Team) would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy 2010.

Have fun with the new website, but keep it clean,

-The PU Team

Attention future Artist's of Pokemon Universe!

• Are you ready for a brand new adventure with exciting tasks?
• Can you create images using pixels and vectors?
• Can you work well under pressure?
• Can you get along with others?
• Is your talent so good you can't even bare to stand it?

Can you relate to one or more of the above statements, then a place as a Pixel Artist member is open for you!

If you are interested in creating new and exciting pixels for our project just private message Bryan or Mr_Dark and we will get back to you as soon as possible! Make sure to include some previous work examples in your appliance.

Job content
You will work closely with the mapping team to create custom objects for our world map. These objects can size from a 1 tile rock or flower to a 20 tile building.

Responsibilities
You'll be responsible for the creation of an exciting new world which will be explored by thousands of players.

What do we ask?

• Active in our IRC channel and staff forums (this is our main way of communication)
• Minimum age is 16 years (18+ preferred)
• A "can-do" and "get-it-done" mentality
• Good understanding of pixel art and color management

Also, if anyone knows a good and cheap (Dedicated Server) hosting provider please tell us, because we have absolutely no idea what to look for when it comes to USA hosters. 

Mirren Alais (United Kingdom) joined the team as a vector artist, she's going to make all of the battle sprites

Any ideas on how to make Wasabi work on the new design? It's going to take ages now...
