Superbowl Sunday! 1/31/99: GO TO THE XOOM SITE FOR THE RICHFILES VERSION 4.0!!!
The title says it all, this page will remain, as a backup, the move is official, and the biggest html update or over a year has just been started. It's going suprisingly well infact, and all the html should be done VERY soon. I'm going throught he pages checking for bugs right now. This will be the last update to the geocities page. All future updates will be to the XOOM page. The info here will remain, and may someday either be linked to the XOOM page, or duplicated here, for a full backup. The most noticable change at the xoom site is no popups that I know of andmoe importantly, a one menu, it should be complete by monday. I'm still working on it now. It should show the entire link list on one screen with no scrolling if it works right!
Thursday. 1/18/99: Xoom site updates! Walker 3M and MECI IV M pages updated!
Come to the Xoom site to see the new web page updates! The brand new Walker 3M and the upgraded MECI IV M have been included!!! The 3M page includes basic info and a nice image of it, and the MECI IV M page has both old and new images of the walker. Best of all, is the link to a page with images of how MECI IV M can get up after falling over! More updates will come soon!!!
Thursday. 1/18/99: Xoom mirror up! may rebuild page there!
Well, I registered a new Xoom web site, and intend to build a new and updated page there. I'll be fully separating the TI and Robotics sections. The page has always supported both frames and no frames viewing, but I'm going to make it a little easier to work with. I may also redo the text and graphics in the old TI section and make a "useful" and a "geek" section. The "geek" section will contain the obsolete stuff for archival purposes only. The "useful" section will contain the Processor acceleration and links to other memory and backlight upgrade pages, as I don't do the work and might as well link rather than redo the page. The geocities account wil eventualy become the mirror, acessing the Xoom page for news, etc. The old TI page will return to it's original TI form, and link to the new page if I get it to look good enough. Also, I'd like to know what you think of the navigation deal on the top. It's been a while since I used a 640x480 screen, and I've made it to be back compatible. I'd like the e-mail and counter at the top, but the links still need to be scrolled down. I am thinking of adding a side frame. I don't like making the main window smaller, but I think I can get it to work right. I'm going to try some new things. I'm hoping they'll work. I'm still going to keep the old text links, etc. I don't like enus that use graphics, since they take longer to load. I lived on 25 MHz, 14.4 KBs internet computers long enough to know there are still people out there who don't have newer systems. I'm going to rebuild my start page, which many people didn't even know was there. Logo, frames/no frames link, counter if I can get it working, and maybe some advertisments or something. I'm going to keep them off the main page, except for things liek if I recomend a book for the robotics section, i'll include a link to amazondsometig like that. Only appropriate stuff. If the new Xoom site looks good enough, I'll simply use the geocities as a backup mirror incase Xoom ever goes down. I have another Geocities acount, but I havn't even toued it for over a year. I don't even remember the actual address. I'll have to look at it to see. (:
If you have a tip or recomendation for the new site, e-mail me at richfile@rconnect.com
The Richfiles Model Building Page (http://geocities.datacellar.net/Area51/Lair/8510/Richfiles.html)
The Richfiles Xoom Mirror (http://members.xoom.com/richfiles/)
Expect updates of the new mirror soon. For now, ignore the mirror's massive array of broken images. They are the old Geocities links, and I just FTPed the Geociies page to the Xoom page. No modifications have been made yet. Soon the news page will be movere, and accessed by the geocities page remotely.
History of my original web page and a ton of stuff about myself!
