ive been thinking of that.. right now im a little torn between getting the Galactopedia a dedicated domain name, or using a better free provider.. im just wary of free sites because the costs (popups, bandwidth restrict, etc) are kind of annoying

Update time.
I've been back in school, but I've been trying to upload a page or two a day worth of information to the Galactopedia. It's been awhile since there's been activity at the Galactopedia-Board, our editor/contributor forum, so i encourage any potential contributors to go ahead and get in touch there with anything they feel they could add.
Im going to be PMing some of you about pictures, since i have a lot of pictures that might have come from your sites and i want to make sure everything's kosher there, but my site gets hits and i'm beginning to add a watermark to most all the pictures that i think will circulate, so im trying to find original sources for them, since they came off an old HD transfer and origins are lost in obscurity. Links aplenty for all involved, if thats compensation.
Meanwhile, I have finished completing the correct version of the alpha-bar for browsing it, so it should be possible to browse from a to z, with the exception of a couple sections that might not have made it up. I'm not especially proud of the fact that there s a lot of unformatted text that doesnt fit as entries, and that some pages still retain my old color scheme, but im working.
Pictures are mostly all broken, again waiting for me to buy webspace.
Google crawled my site and ive been receiving lots of hits from people actually searching me out.. reading what people visited my site is a bizarre voyeuristic feeling.. people have typed some bizarre things to find me, including at least one searcher who typed in my full name, and the school i go to to find my site. some other fun search terms: "NCC-1305-E"; "Thadiun Okona"; "lyrics yea brother star trek"; "lyrics mind in jail judge bangs the gavel"
Some people who searched my site that were looking for something else included searches for "vulcan xxx"; "cloaking devices used in world war 2"; and "data on jean pulaski" (BTW i think the last one is a prime example of why Star Trek has ruined the internet for real information)
OK i sign off for now.

I have to wonder, what is the source of the names of the ST:IV background species. And does anyone have scans of the TMP trading cards with the background alien bios on them. Im pretty sure they match the starlog scans i have. .. love the UFP page too!

bumping this one last time, just to let anyone who was involved know that the Galactopedia-Board has a new home on my site's new forum. we kinda lost everything before, but if any of the old participants want to sign up, register and leave a thread here. there are a bunch of other forums too, but i'm eager to have the Galactopedia become a collaboration again.
