About the email thing, doesn't that cost $0.02 per day to redirect email with NearlyFreeSpeech? I don't know, I might do that. [inconsistently-frugal emotikeen]

And about issue with tabs in my website: I *do* use tabs all of the time, but I hadn't noticed that the POST-form-navigation stops you from control-clicking within my website. I'll revert to regular links at some point relatively soon, and use the GET-method instead. It was a fun experiment, I guess, but it has its drawbacks.

Oh, that's right, NFS only requires you to pay for what you use. Fair enough then, but it would be a shame to have your own domain and not make full use of it! Still, 60 cents/month shouldn't exactly break the bank...

And yes, I suppose it's always fun to experiment with things like that, but I guess you have to ask yourself why you don't see that sort of thing on other websites - chances are there's a very good reason it's not widely used! (And hey, I forgot you could open new tabs by Ctrl+Click! I still think middle-clicking is easier though

)

I'm pleased you got your CSS styles right though - when you change the foreground colour you also changed the background colour. It's amazing how many sites change only the foreground colour and leave the background colour undefined, assuming it'll be white, when quite often it's not for anyone who's customised their browser settings!

This is a really great website, CK Guy. I especially like the design (simple, but effective). I'm also glad to have to check just one place to find some updates on your projects. Good job!

The Keen Collective @ The Bipship

This is a place where you can download all known versions of all episodes of Commander Keen. It is currently in progress: all known versions are downloadable, but not all of them are documented yet.

Illegality = Undeniable.

Check it out and grab some versions you don't have.

The link until KeenRush reads this and removes it because it's against forum policy: <:dopekeen>

After that, pm me.

Enjoy.

Yes, the link has now been removed...

Have to make sure there's no version I don't have, though.

So? Is there something wrong with my php system?

I think it's pretty slick, actually. The generated urls are less than concise, but oh well.

KeenRush is on a roll!!

Sorry about all this illegal-link posting. Maybe I'll just quietly link to it from my main site.

(edit) Were there any versions you didn't have KR? The registered Dreams versions perhaps?

I got too tired to check, so I grabbed all 33 to be safe.

You just cost me 1.2 cents in bandwidth charges.

(edit) @memsys - stop it, that last link just crossed the line, I think.

(edit again) Haha, wait, it doesn't work. Although the enterprising keener could probably figure out the correct link.

(edit again again) Alright, this has been a fun little conversation in almost-real-time, but I have to go. See you guys!

Haha, rickroll'd. I was wondering when someone was going to find out. I'll change that back.

(edit) all better! Enjoy your piracy once again!

the temporary page is still there, though, available at ..../index.htm

That's just cruel. But, well done. I can gladly say I'm yet to be rockroll'd! Go my team.

Is that a Proximity to a Cat reference?
