actually, its more like theres people out there who just want some name recognition and want to leech off the fact that the original has been out a long time and they want to pretend like its a new version of the original.



If they were jsut wanting to 'get it back on top' then you would think that they would at least give some credit where its due.

Everyone on the Big-O Software board are fucking dumbasses except MikeZed because he actually knows common sense.

I guess they re-worked their site, because the graphics are pretty "polished" in my opinion. Especially compared to the "business" pages of this site. The wording, I agree, utilizes poor grammar

I'm sorry, but putting aside my feelings about them treading a very precarious line by using the AIM Plus moniker, I feel they have put together a really nice looking website. Granted, the site is in deserate need of a content editor to make sure the grammatics of the text are correct.

I've looked at many of the corporate sites I visit and this one is not much below the look-and-feel of most of them. It has the Flash content and the graphic design similar to the websites I visit for work on a daily basis. They really used a lot of blues (which I was told by a software vender we work with is a color that makes people want to stay and look around and doesn't promote eye-strain).

But I do have to say that the first thought that came to mind was that it reminded me of Patchou's site http://www.msgplus.net/

to be a comment about the n00b-ness of the design.

But it wouldn't be the first time I've been accused of having bad taste....lol

Looks like someone pulled the plug on them.

Either the host found them, and didn't like what they were doing, or AIMutation, or Ryan found them.

Their name servers work, which is why I have come to the above conclusion.

As I said in my earlier posts, I e-mailed them a while back and got this...

Good day, Mike!

Thank you for your attention to our project.

Maybe it will be made soon.
But why you don't like it?

Yeah, AIMutation got to 'em. Supposedly using some rip of AIMutations code. Details here.
