I live in Iowa and many of the local members have decided to join together and start a site dedicated to the midwest. We have plans of opening our site in August 2002. It will be called Midwest Paint.
I would like some input from other members and whether they would support a site such as this. I will briefly try descibing the content we plan on including...
Midwest Paint will have the advantage over many sites because it will be focused on one geographical location enough to attract smaller teams, fields, and tournaments yet large enough to gain members from several states. The site will include directories of teams and fields from the midwest with information about locations, members, sponsors, contact people, etc... The site will also offer a calander of events in the midwest including tournaments and other organized paintball events.
Like most sites it will offer forums and messaging if all goes as planned. We are currently looking at many message board providers including vBulletin and many other well recognized systems. Hopefully, by June we will be able to aquire the required resources (money) to purchase these forums for our use.
Links will be another major part of Midwest Paint. The goal is to have at least 25 active links on opening day of the site. By active links I mean quality links to nice sites such as paintballchannel.com, pbreview.com, and paintball.com for example. This also includes them creating links to us so we can promote our services to others.
If you have any questions or you would like to help build this site you can email (amerikaner@caseynet.com) me or just send me a personal message. Please let me know if you would like to help sponsor the site or offer any of your services.
Thanks...
