The Beginning of Zelda Temple

Back around Dec 2006 I wanted to make a Zelda site. I got hosted by Zelda Legacy, under the site name of Zelda Divine… Which was an incredibly new site. I had former knowledge of html or hhow to run a site, so I had Swiftblade (the current admin of Zelda Legacy forums) help me. Eventually, Zelda Divine was getting boring and we had a few issues of name stealing, so we had to take it down.

Karashimu, the previous owner of Zelda Genesis, then gave me Zelda Temple’s url and hosting. He payed for it for awhile to keep it up and running, and surprisingly, Zelda Temple was much more popular than Zelda Divine, and for that I was happy.

We had some ups and downs, and for at least two months, we had merged with Forsaken Legend, and split back, like we had around the March-May merge in 2007.

I got hosted by Henry of Zelda Oracles, and began to smile as I once again knew that I could revive Zelda Temple, and this is how it now…

After the Split:

After the split, I began to work hard on a new layout. Yes. One I had made by myself. It was based off Zelda Europe’s current Fall layout, however, this one had less of an appeal. It was blue and dull, and most of the images were just cut off, without any real appealing looks. It was comprised of just cut images and nothing else. The content area had no BG and was awkward. DIVs messed up and the content slide under the navibars on the right, causing it to look worse. Cutenews also refused to work properly. There was a lot of errors with this template, so after about a month or so, it as taken down. I began to make version 2 right away, this time to look green and cheery besides a depressing blue.

Nov 2007:

I had actually gotten up version 2 and it looked nice. This one was based on the main zelda site, made by Nintendo. That was Zelda Universe. You can probably guess what I added to make it like the main site. It was the dots around the navi and content areas. I liked it, but this layout also had errors for those who used Internet Explorer. It would would move the header to the left completely, as well as the links above the header. I’m guessing it was because the one who coded it (Master Link of A.D. Zelda) had not used hotspot hyperlinks and simply croped the images and put a hyperlink over them. I think that was a bad choice.

May 2008:

After a few months of constantly creating version 3, I was happy to say that Version 3 was finally completed. It was based off one of the blue layouts that Zelda Europe has made, as well as an early gold version. This one has problems mainly under the banner and just above the actual content in terms of the coding, but ah well. This also spiked a little more visits to the site.

July 2008:
