Creating Un-Sucky Clan Webpages
Right off the bat I want to settle the issue with my first column. There are some wild rumors going around that my world exclusive DOOM 3 preview was all just joke. I'll publicly state for the record that it's almost entirely based on secondhand accounts of events that could have happened. And you can quote me on that.
You don't believe me?? Fine. Yes it was a joke, of course it was a joke, and if you thought it was real you should learn some common sense! Apparently some people don't have common sense because I got some comments like these:

Why would id. make Doom 3 sprite based considering all the technological advancements. Aren't polygon characters better animated? I would trade having thousands of creatures on screen for just a few very real looking and better animated creatures.
Very interesting doom3 "preview", however brining back high-quality 1024X768 sprites, may be a good idea.... It would greatly increase detail and alow for more monsters....If Diablo II is doing it, hey.... why not???
Great article....but man does Doom 3 look like its going to be crap in a bucket. Maze designs...sprites, geez whats happening here! Are we taking a trip back to the stone age of FPS. Why do you think Half-life was so popular, because it was real and you could actually remember where you are with drawing a map. And sprites are about as good looking as the stuff in my septic tank. You think people will buy this game when we can buy games that offer exciting game play that looks good and that you can actually find the end of the level.
Um, so who was Employee X?

Most people realized that it was a joke though :) But then again, some people thought I was being too sarcastic throughout the article. So in this issue, you won't find any sarcasm. Yessirree, you won't find any sarcasm in even one sentence! Not even a bit! Now all you people that wanted "serious" articles can enjoy this one...
Creating Un-Sucky Clan Webpages
Seeing as how I’m an active Quake player as well as an avid webpage designer, I figured the best thing I could do to help the community would be to lay out a step-by-step procedure on how to create a webpage for your clan. Not one of those crappy ones either, I’m talking about a good clan page! It doesn’t take a lot of brainpower to make a decent clan page, so if you follow my handy guide, you should have no problem. (Yes, that comment about brainpower was aimed directly at you)
There are really only 4 key points you must cover to make a successful clan page. HTML skills are nice, but not at all a necessity because there are plenty of excellent “homepage generators” out there. These are wonderful programs that say “Type your text in this box” and “select an image in this box”, then you hit CREATE and... Whoosh! You’ve got a webpage. AOL offers an premium webpage generator, or you can always just steal the code of another clan page and replace the text with your own. But before we even get into that, let’s start with the basics...
