Welcome to BETA Mountain.org

Webmaster Note

The old Betamountain.org (V1.0) is being imported into this new version. At this time, the Character Guide and Episode Guide are not imported and I'll be working on those.

V1.0 is still available underneath at https://betamountain.org/index.htm and will remain there until I feel like it is time to move on.

If you want to stick around and see what is getting worked on, go here.

Please be patient, BM.org has been gone for a number of years and just recently came home!

Regards,
Bob

Dec 18.2017 - Old vs New

Importing some things from the original GR CD 1 (more on that later), and I came across a stitch that someone else (CGfWiG I assume) did from the episode One Million Emotions. Without remembering that it existed, I recently did the same stitch. That first one was done with the tried and true vidcap, presumably off of VHS. Pretty amazing how far things have come!

Dec 16.2017 - Really Old Content, Ranger-L, Site Navigation

Started making the landing pages for all of the episode and character pages. There's a lot of old content to pull over into this site. To compound things, I got back on Ranger-L and got back in contact with some of the 'ol regulars (I didn't say "old"), which was great. That spawned the import of Fan Fiction ("Fanfic"), something I never got around to doing before. Please note that I'm importing things in a raw fashion and marking for cleanup at another time. I fixed the upload bug and then started editing the skin css. I haven't figured out where all of the font coloring is held, so for now it'll look like this.

Dec 14.2017 - Updates, Rebuilds, Contemplation

I've wanted a site for awhile that had good cross-reference ability and I have some history with MediaWiki. This past week I built a temporary server, moved everything to it, tested out the basic setups, got SSL working via CertBot, cleaned up some very badly handled apache configurations, then rebuilt the original server, migrated everything back, then started installing MediaWiki. I haven't done this for awhile and it is always interesting to see what has changed for install procedures, packages, etc. My first test article was The Ballad Of Ol' Roy and after that I've been working on migrating the old news posts and figuring out what skin I want to use. Mobile sites weren't an issue back in the day! I've been looking around The Wayback Machine and noting all the sites that have gone by the wayside. There's a lot of content (series, fanfic, etc) that I am debating on importing into this site. I'll look for some feedback on this and if it happens, I'll memorialize the source.

Dec 3.2017: The Day BetaMountain.Org Came Home

In a completely bizarre occurrence today during an exchange with @Marienro2 on Twitter that had the bm.org url typed out, I clicked the link. I got a DNS not found result. Flashback around 13 years ago, after an unfortunate series of events that transpired after handing the domain off to another individual, and trust me that losing the domain was nothing compared to the real life events that led to the losing of it, the domain expired and got picked up by a squatter. It sat there in that state for years, presumably until some time this summer and then undiscovered by me until today. I jumped on it. BetaMountain is home (literally in some ways). If feels good. To be up front, I'm not sure what direction the site will go from here, things (links, scripts, etc) are broken, the place is a mess, but the site is here back under the rightful name! I need to post more about this in the future but if you haven't heard yet, there's a Galaxy Ranger's podcast out there and you need to go check it out. Check out series6podcast.com for more information and give it a listen (make sure you check out Episode 9)!
