Neo Geo Pocket Power
Description
I bought a Neo Geo Pocket in January 2000, after reading about how great it was and wanting a portable console to replace my ancient Sega Game Gear. I bought a few games for it and found it was as good as I heard. In Febuary I started writing reviews of my games, with the intention of having them added to other NGP websites. I soon had even more ideas of what I wanted on an NGP website, so I decided to make one myself. I had previously created several websites about other games, so I knew what I was doing, but I decided to make my new site better than previous sites, as I was more experienced.
The first thing I did was think of a name for my site. That was quite tricky as I wanted it to sound good, but not similar to any other NGP, or other gaming, sites. I eventually decided upon Neo Geo Pocket Power, then started developing my site.
First I drew a rough sketch of my site and listed possible categories on a sheet of paper, then I used Dreamweaver 1.2, that I got free with a magazine to make the first simple outline page. I then altered a few things then started making a few real pages. I decided I needed some graphics to liven up my site so I sketched some logos then designed them using MS Paint and Ulead IPhoto Express (a photo editing package bundled with my scanner). I got some free buttons from Atomor then added text using IPhoto. I got the Javascript for changing the images from 1st Page 2000 (a great free HTML editor) and added it.
