Just to think, one year ago, the cloverfield hype was reaching an all time high, with new stuff popping up on 1-18-08.com, i dont know how many times i must have typed that into my address bar ;-)
But I completely owe this sites existance to our german friend Florian, better known as cashaddy, this site was completely designed and coded by him, afterall our site IS hosted in germany, but for those of you who are wondering how this site was born, heres a little history of how I was obsessed with creating a website to further expand my youtube audience of over a million. you'll probaly have to press "read more" to get the whole story:
It all started with a youtube video of me asking for someone to help me create a website, I got immediatly over 20 webmasters gladly to help! so i chose a core team of about 5 all with their specialties:
This is just PART of the great team of people who worked together to create this site:

I can help you. I do webdesign and graphic art. I have created websites in html iframes and expandable table cells. I use photoshop to design and dreamweaver to help code. For the RSS Feed, it really should not be much. Your RSS Feed is just http://www.youtube.com/rss/user/nightowl3090/videos.rss so that just has to be inserted into the content. I can even make some animations in flash and incoperate them into the title or places around the site. Like animated banner and buttons. Doing a whole page in flash is a lot harder and would not be easy for you to incorporate what you would want so I would only suggest doing bits in flash to add glamor. If ya need any help just contact me.
If I can't design I whole page for ya, due to the fact that you are working on it, I would like to help out with some graphic stuff around the site. If not, thank you for looking at this and giving me the time.

Hi
I was thinking about it, and I think I would like to be apart of helping make the site. I have an idea in my head of a layout, I just don't know what you actually want on the site and what not. I was thinking if you wanted a forum, you could sign up on Proboards, they seem to have a could forum software. Get back to me and let me know. I'm going to school for web design, while I'm not going to create you something sepectalur I think with a combination of peoples ideas we can create something good.
Peace out
Thanks
