And now what none of you have been waiting for, something you probably haven't dreamed about, something that no-one actually knows about: *drum roll* DSFRIENDS In a nutshell it is a trading post for DS friendcodes, for the members of romulation. I just want to clarify this isn't another message board but a website designed for the trading of friendcodes. At least check it out ;D This has been a project of mine for sometime, and it has taken me a long, hard month to learn PHP and build this site. Any feedback would be great (unless it's just mean, in which case :'() UPDATE: I'm aware that the site is slow/not-loading, i just found out there is some maintenance going on, on the server i use, it will be back at 19:00pm-23:00pm (GMT)
Generally its not a good idea to use a major project as a learning exercise, but this looks OK, its resisted a couple of basic attacks I've attempted.
i guess i like to see something come out of the work i've been putting in. And thanks for the testing.
Not too bad, good job. Better than what I could do.. I'm currently in the market for a wireless router as my other one burned out but I'll probably join as soon as I get it.
check it again, mine stopped working but it turned out the PSU had blown up, the router itself was fine. I bought a new PSU for £18 and my £5 router is working fine again
Wow that's cheap. Yeah, I'll check it. If it doesn't work, I can always buy one from my hacker neighbour who has about 5 extra wireless routers.
Cool I appreciate you guys checking it out, and signing up ;D. I'm aware that the site is slow/not-loading, i just found out there is some maintenance going on, on the server i use, it will be back at 19:00pm-23:00pm (GMT)
It's a nice/clean website design. Signed up. You should put a list of the most popular games (The ones with the largest list of friend codes). That way, it's easier to find the more popular Wi-Fi games to add your code too, rather than searching through each game individually seeing that most are empty. Good luck.
OK thanks for that idea i plan to be adding a few features, such as an invite button that sends an invite to whoever with your friendcode for that game. And once i've learn a few more things, lets just say "Clans". UPDATE: i added "Popular Games" to the site
No worries for the idea, it's looking really good. I'll add all my friend codes tomorrow. Just a question: Looking through the list of games, some i had no idea are Wi-Fi compatible? Since there are so many different levels of Wi-Fi compatibility; maybe you should include what each game's online play extends to. Example - For Mario Kart you can race against up to 4 'friends' But i know that some games online compatibility and friend codes are solely for 'trading' or something other than live play vs. 'friends'
Yeah, i was what you could call somewhat foolish, i copied a list off of wikipedia "Nintendo DS wi-fi Games" and entered each one, i obviously didn't realise they had games on their without friendcodes.I will also be adding features that have a bit of info for each game.
I recommend changing the colour a bit and also adding a "Time Showoff" type thing where you post in the games with your friendcode and when you'll be on. Hope you got what I meant.
