Chaos needs a web designer!

Post by R.Flagg »

Now that we have a team in place for our next version, and since work has already begun on the mod itself, we'd love to have a brand spanking new web site to help us usher in Chaos for UT3.

MassChaos has been faithfully executing this type of web need for years now, but currently is very busy with RealLife. So now we are in search of a web designer. Or if needed, two people (a graphics guru and a code master). The person we seek will be given a very long creative leash to author/create the entire Chaos web presence. They will work under MassChaos' general direction, however this is simply to ensure that what is created is in fact something we can use.

Ideally we revamp everything we have - with these stipulations in mind;

1) we would love to leave BU as our host for UT related sites, but...
2) for whatever reason(s), we can't get regular update access to our chaoticdreams.org site, so we still need another
3) we are not leaving our current forum url/host.

We have our <a href="http://chaotic.beyondunreal.com/" target="_blank">BU hosted site</a> (which will now have to accommodate 4 versions of Chaos), our <a href="http://chaosdm.planetquake.gamespy.com/" target="_blank">Chaos for Quake 2</a> site, our very outdated <a href="http://www.chaoticdreams.org/" target="_blank">chaoticdreams.org</a> site, and even these forums could use a facelift if possible.

We would like to see our outdated chaoticdreams.org site act as an updated portal in some way for our multiple urls, and for each site to have some sort of noticeable theme or design consistency. Lacking that however, we still have a desire to at least have something new for our UT site, to reflect the upcoming Chaos for UT3.

It's a big job. Gonna take someone with cojones to volunteer to take it on. Could be a one-time thing, or it could possibly lead to a full-time team membership, depending on how involved the person wants to get. Either way, there will be plenty of public credit given to those involved. Their name would reside on our credits page (online and even in the mod package itself), and of course multiple news posts about them as well.

The person placed in charge of this will have to be creative, with PHP and MySQL experience, and should be able to develop locally on his or her own machine. In addition, online examples of previous work is a must.

Please note that Chaos is and has always been created by 100% volunteer work. Anyone seeking cash payment need not reply. We're looking for someone who enjoys and supports the free mod scene as we do, and has the time to spare.

And of course, Chaos gets a decent amount of visitors and downloads, so if done well this has the potential to be an excellent showcase type site for someone who wishes to enhance their web design portfolio.

If you are interested, contact us any way you wish, forums, email, or IRC.

Thanks for reading!

That post is of course out of date, as we are no longer confident we will have a release for UT3.

However, we aren't giving up on the Chaos just yet. We will still continue to search for a new game, and/or a new coder.

So, we are still interested in a web guy, and new web host for all of our UT stuff (and whatever is next). Maybe that's the same person?

Should somebody step forward as web guy/web host, it would of course qualify as a full-time team membership position.

Long Live Chaos
