Internet Office Weekly Report #9 - 21 August 2005

Due to his inactivity, Tiamat has been removed as IOA, and he has been replaced by Major Talek Pter Dei. If you have any graphics requirements, feel free to see him and he will attempt to accommodate your requests.

The Image Archive has finally been replaced with the Emperor's Hammer Image Gallery, located at http://ehnet.org/gallery/. Signups for an EHNet account may now be made at http://ehnet.org/register/ which will allow you to upload images directly to the gallery, as well as being able to vote in the upcoming Emperor's Hammer HoloNet Awards.

Member photos are the flavour of the month for the new Image Gallery, so accordingly I am starting a new competition, entitled "EH Paparazzi", where people are to compete for an IS-SR...or possibly an IS-GR if I receive enough entries. Only entries submitted through the ehnet.org Image Gallery will be considered, so sign up today!

Finally, may I impress upon the webmasters of the EH community the unreliability of the Minos web hosting solution provided by Turtle. I suggest you seek other alternatives for hosting, particularly ehnet.org hosting...contact me for an account. Also: remember to always keep a backup of all files you upload onto the internet, as you never know what will happen to the host's server...e.g. HDD failure.

Site of the Week

This week, the Site of the Week award goes to:

Grant of Arms: A Herald Office Project
Webmaster: SBM Zeth Durron

This site has been useful for DB members in requesting the creation of Grant of Arms graphics for their DB profiles. It contains useful information in detailing the makeup of the GoA's. This information is presented in a succint way, with an aesthetically pleasing, clean design. The site also recently moved to ehnet.org hosting. Congratulations goes to Zethy for his high quality site and the service he provides.

I ask you, the membership of the Emperor's Hammer, to submit sites that you believe are worthy of a site of the week award. To qualify as site of the week, a site should look alright (doesn't need uber graphics to win though), have plenty of relevant information about the particular unit or function, and is updated regularly. Sites must be in the EH Site Database to qualify for Site of the Week.
