Well, if SphereCommunity is going to become the new official place for Sphere they may need to stepup their game.

Don't get me wrong, I love this place. But if we want Sphere to grow, we'll need to convert SphereCommunity into a more official outlet, with dev news, information about Sphere, and a what not. Just flesh it out!

Reason being, currently if you don't know what the big UO emulators are, chances are you'll find RunUO first and not even realize Sphere exists because there's sadly very little easy-to-access public information about it.

SphereCommunity would probably benefit from going with a system like my server's website. An all-in-one community core like Invision Power Board, with IP.Content for custom pages and IP.Downloads and IP.Gallery for SShare.

(Not trying to plug my shard!!) But take a quick peek at my website, image it all in sphere colors, and with an additional section for SShare. I think this would be a good start to get SphereServer off the ground again. Only problem is using Invision Power Board *correctly* involves somewhat advanced PHP knowledge, and really good graphics design skills to make a good skin.

EDIT: We also need a shard list like the good ole days!
