We need content. Especially exclusive content. And we need links.

This place is pretty dead lately. I figure we can solve this in two ways:

1. Google ranking = bottom half of page 10 for a search of "starfox." If you have a site, if you could link to SFO, please do. It will help increase our ranking.

2. Lack of Content. Our content is not-so-exciting. It is stuff you can find anywhere. We need content that will attract members to our community.

We need your help on these.

There are a couple of exclusive content projects coming, but they are only in planning. One shouldn't take long to do, but whether or not it will happen is not a 100%. The other will take a while to do. Months.

If you have any ideas on how we can improve this, please share them.  It doesn't have to be articles or such. It could even be an interactive feature.

I'm not saying that we need to compete with Arwing Landing or anything, but we need to form an identity for our community.

Also, I have plans for a "Classic Fanart" gallery that will be part of the main site. If you have, or know someone who has, any SF fanart created prior to the release of SFAd, please send it to us along with artist information. Reasonable attempts to obtain permission from the artists will be made before posting their work.

Also, I have works by these artists. If you know how to contact them, please let me know.

A classic Fan Fiction library is another thing I'd like to do, but that was not something I collected back then. If you have any, let me know.

I've got a couple things in the works too. Assuming my schedule allows for it, I've got most of the Star Fox 64 cutscenes recorded, I've got all of the Star Fox 64 music to edit, and I have all of the Adventures voice acting clips. I can add some unique, textual content to the site, relative to each game. Maybe one or two a week.

We have to see a site before we create an affiliate relationship. Could you please link it?

Also, I'd like to be SFOCast back, but changes will be made to the format and it will likely be re-incarnated as a monthly podcast due to there not being enough news to fill a biweekly one. Special episodes may be held for big news.

Monthly has been working well for the KA podcasts. However, I'm going to have to step down as co-host for now. I have too much to do to handle another podcast. I can't wait to hear the new SFOcasts though!

I swear to God you posted this list once before. o.O What shall we ask said artists about when we contact them?

The possible affiliate is Database Three.  Just click on the image in my signature.

I'd be willing to co-host SFOCast if you want.

You want new content, I'll give you new content!!!

I edited the Star Fox 64 recordings I made a while back and have posted them just now on the main site. I have further plans for more content. Maybe one (small) addition each week or so.

More new content!

I've turned my Star Fox Plotholes topic into an article:

http://starfox-online.net/features/articles/starfoxplotholes/

I'm already planning on doing a Star Fox Memes article too, probably by the end of the week.

Most plotholes in the article are not plotholes. Some aren't even correct.

I think the article should be renamed "Inaccuracies" or something to that effect. Also, if this is a fansite of Star Fox, then why does our very first article point out all the flaws in the game?

Because that's the first one I did. It's not like these articles will be sorted by time.

I only included things that could loosely be termed plotholes because they were not directly explained. Though there are many explanations, many of these still spark controversy today, and that is why I included them.

I wouldn't look at this article as some totally serious, exhaustive list of a specific time of story inconsistancies. It's just a fun article that asks interesting questions.

Thanks.

Hey guys? Do you guys like the Weekend Fan Creations? I post one new video (and in the future, other types of things) each week about Star Fox. It gives us new content every week. I hope you like it, but if you'd rather something different, let me know.

And as another thing we can do weekly, I was thinking. DZ, you're our music guru, and we already have a lot of music on the site, freely available. What do you think about each week, posted in advance for your convenience, you could make a post about a specific Star Fox song from a specific Star Fox game. Just generally review it, talk about the instrumentation, perhaps some history to go along with it. I would really enjoy seeing that. Weekend Fan Creations are posted Fridays. You could post these every Tuesday or something. What do you think about that?

That's a great idea, Dwight.  I'd enjoy reading a soundtrack dissertation as well - and maybe some potential ways to remix it?

I like the Weekend Fan Creations.  Whether or not I have the time to watch them is a different story.  :D
