Welcome to the Seventh Edition of the Completely Unofficial Star Wars
Encyclopedia!
Thanks to all of you who have been coming here over the last few months.
My hits per month have continued to grow, to the point where I'm over 3,000 a month! In order
to eliminate the monthly shut-down of my MindSpring account, I have accepted
an offer from the guys here at
MosEisley.Com.
Chances are good that you got re-directed here from the old Mindspring URL. Please update
your bookmarks accordingly, and thanks for your continued patronage of my Encyclopedia!
I have tweaked the interface to remove one frame, but all the various parts of the
Encyclopedia are still around. I have also added a new logo (above) for those of you who wish
to link to this website with an image. Just put the following HTML on your website:
I've had some folks volunteer to help make some of my wish-list
items happen, but no progress to date. The big change is the addition of
blue text in the
various versions of the full encyclopedia, which denotes new information added since the
Sixth Edition. Also, note that I have removed the WordPerfect
version of the full encyclopedia in favor of an HTML version that can be viewed on any
browser without Internet connectivity. Just fire up your browser and point to the main file!
Among the other changes I'd like to implement are:
- Group entries by category (aliens, characters, droids, ships, etc.)
- Put in a search engine, or an index
- Add pictures and images for entries
- Let someone host the Encyclopedia
I'm looking into all of these, but it might mean that I take a hiatus
from new information and revamp the entire Encyclopedia.
Please E-mail me
if you have any other ideas, or if you have trouble with this new version.
E-mail me
if you can't get the encyclopedia to download. Please make sure you send
me your e-mail address and what version you tried requesting!
