The Gamers’ Gallery Launches!
So I’ve started a new site that builds greatly on the screenshot work I did over at Evil Avatar. I’m officially launching it tonight.
The press release is as follows…
The Gamers' Gallery - A New Way to Look at Video Game Screenshots
EASTON, PA (March 30, 2007)
- Nicholas Puleo would like to announce the creation of The Gamers'
Gallery (http://www.thegamersgallery.com), a new website dedicated to
promoting video games through the sharing and discussion of game
screenshots. The Gamers' Gallery is a database-driven webportal
combining the beauty and elegance of AJAX with the power and utility of
PHP to provide a place where screenshots, game data, and
up-to-the-minute news can be centrally stored and made available to
everyone.
Puleo describes this project as a personal "labor of love."
"The
Gamers' Gallery was created because all other screenshot viewers are
severely lacking. I really just wanted to create the best damn
screenshot viewer on the internet, and provide the fastest and easiest
way to access information related to those screens."
Nathaniel Payne, a lackey of Puleo's working on the site, had this to say about the venture.
"Screenshots
are usually sent to various game journalism websites. They end up being
stored in separate silos of information, and it's difficult to pull all
that information together. The goal of the Gamers' Gallery is to
collect screenshots in one place, and match those screens up with the
relevant data that will give you the details of any particular game.
It's brilliant in its simplicity."
On the Gamers' Gallery, users
are able to view the screenshots, vote on their popularity, and leave
comments. TGG also provides users the ability to subscribe to the
site which allows them access to hi-resolution images and the ability
to post their own screenshots for the community to vote on, as well as
build their own custom webpage for the community. This service is only
$9.99 per year.
Puleo says that this launch is the first step in
the ongoing evolution of the site, and that new features will be
constantly added as the project builds in relevance and momentum within
the gaming community.
Nicholas Puleo goes by the alias
"bapenguin" and is an Editor-in-Chief and an Administrator of the
popular gaming community Evil Avatar (http://www.evilavatar.com).
Nathaniel Payne goes by the alias "Doctor Setebos" and is addicted to the internet.
