I don't see anything on the Skycraper list.  I always enjoyed seeing the height of buildings and other interesting data on them.  The only one there is One KC Place and it doesn't have any info.  Can we get this back?

It would be pretty stupidly easy to plug that info into a database.

Readded the skyscraper list and it seems to be working now.

Just checked the new email address...man there are some pissed people I changed that site...sorry if you were one of them....

all the development info is going to go into a wiki...which obviously I could use some help on....figured just start fresh with new projects and projects wrapping up...no need to dig up old dead projects.

Awesome thanks!  Nope, I wasn't one of the pissed off ones!  But now you got me curious, what are people saying?

nothing horrible...just that it's unusable...which it is.  I just didn't know anybody cared.


If wiki-authors want some ideas about what to write about, I've created a page called "Page ideas" with links to new pages for projects....that list of projects came right out of the old website database and could be stale.

http://www.kcskyscrapers.com/joomla/com ... Page_Ideas

There is a standard template for those project pages, so use those to begin the page.

Yeah, it's definitely not user friendly.  Too much text and not enough icons and graphics!  :P

I definitely care.  I frankly miss the good ol days when you had the stoplights that told you how alive or how dead a project was.  Just a little reminiscing...

You used to have a miscellaneous album for hosting pics that were not KC related. I uploaded a bunch of pics onto it. Looking on some of the threads here I see that the links are still working but the directory on KCSkyscrapers.com is missing.

Does "position: The Quiet Chair" mean that the person cannot post?
