this, and in the site support as well as the main page. They are free to join, and free forever. Please click through if you
want to join. You'll be helping me out as well. Thanks.

Well, I'm back. I've been having interesting problems lately. Family mostly. I'm trying
to find the time to update my websites lately since I know its been waaaaaaay too long since last I did this. Sorry about
this everyone, you know how it is when you get busy with other things.

Well, I finally managed to get the money to buy a laptop, granted
its not the greatest thing in the world, in fact its only a 1.2Ghz Intel Celeron processor and 384mb of ram running Windows
XP Home with a non upgradable Intel Extreme Graphics with 32mb of ram. Its a preowned Dell Inspiron 2600, with a pretty good
battery (better than most batteries that come with preowned laptops.) The reason I got this was so I could update my site
more often using WiFi at local stores and so I can edit textures on the go so in case I make a mistake with the photo I don't
have to go back and try to take the picture again (such a hassle) Also, I'm trying to start a new business and once its up
and running I'll let everyone know.
Hopefully when that does happen I'll be able to make enough money to pay
to have this site changed to a www instead of an http. Also, I'm going to try to finish work on a few game reviews I didn't
finish from the last time.

Wow, it has been a very, very long time since I've updated this. I'm very, very sorry
everybody. With 56k its not easy to get everything done that you need to. I still can't afford to pay for any more space
on this website, so I can't put up alot of pictures here anymore. So far I've used up 12.3mb of the 20mb they give me for
free. I have added some new stuff on this site and the others, check it out sometime. Well some of you already know this,
but about 2 months ago I lost me E:\ drive. While I was taking it out of the case it fell out due to a couple of loose screws
and hit the ground killing it. It doesn't affect the status of the FPS I was creating, but it did eliminate my option for
adding custom sounds to the game since they and many other things were stored on the HD. As a sad side note the programs I
used to create the 3D images I used to make were also on that HD as well as the custom 3D content I was going to add to the
game. I'm currently looking into a service to recover the data from the HD since its so damaged it has to be professionally
recovered and thats going to cost alot of cash (think over $500) and I've got nothing to put toward it. If you could donate
to this cause I'd appreciate it greatly and any amount will do. If you contribute I'll send anyone who donates $10 or more
a free copy of the FPS (chapter 1) when its done as well as a spot in the credits. Donations of $80 or more will receive the
first 3 chapters of the FPS (its a series) as well as a spot in the credits. I've included the old newsletter below just for
humor value. Also, if you haven't noticed I've started up Vigilante Team in the MMORPG called "Fallen Sword" please click
on the link provided in the banner ads. It'll greatly help out the club in the game if you do and sign up at the same time.
Its completely free and when you do I'll share the "wealth" that was gained from people who do this.
Again, if you have any questions just ask. There are
links for that in the main menu bar. :-)

Yup, I'm back. Its been waaaay too long since the last update. The time stamps said
the last time was 5-20-2005. Ouch, I didn't think it'd been that long. Well, I'm making some long overdue changes to some
of the pages, as well as some much needed additions to some pages both here on the main V.T. site as well as the "Editor's
Edge" site. I'm including links to the stuff I've created and uploaded to "Turbosquid" and I'll post any items I'm selling
on Ebay in the "V.T. Store" so look forward to that. I've also included a referal link if you need to sign up for Paypal.
I'd appreciate it if you would use this link, it won't cost you a dime extra or anything extra when you use it to sign up.
On the "Editor's Edge" site I'm going to include some new PC game reviews as well as a brand new section for Xbox
360 game reviews. I sadly will only be able to upload 1 or 2 pictures from now on since I'm running low on disk space with
this free hosting account. (13mb of the 20mb total) There is also a new letter in the "Letters from the Editor" page on the
main V.T. site, it answers a few questions and quells a few myths about the link on the support page. Also, V.T. could use
a few more members since, well its been a long time since we last had a new member and V.T. needs some new members to get
out there, play and bring back news of their victories. ;) I'll also be adding my MSN Messenger name if you want to
chat with me some day, as well as my AIM Tag.
Also, if anyone can actually donate that would really help alot. Since I put up the
site support page all those many many months ago, no one has ever clicked through on any of the links, let alone bought
anything, so this sites current format can't change or get better.
Go take a look, and let me know what you think. V.T. Phantos
