Unfortunately, no webhost stays good for long. It seems iPower runs fine, there's just almost no tech support and they aren't prompt about domain names.

As long as you have control over your domain, I wouldn't worry too much.

After a couple of emails, they finally got my fish-byte.com site back on the air. I guess I'll stick with them for now.

When, approx is the new version (and the creature packs) available? Sounds wonderful!

Would love to see the new version. Any mandarin fish expected?

The new 3D version Jim is working on is tightly under wraps for now and no screenshots can be released. Once it is done and out, and the current fish are redone, then I would guess Jim will start working on the creature packs. A mandarin goby is scheduled for inclusion, unless Jim changes his mind. As to exactly which pack or when, no date has been set.

wow, it's been almost two years since my last visit lol. I found an old demo on backup disk and had to revisit the site to see what's been going on.

Can someone fill me in on the latest and greatest ? I've read back a few pages, but some more detail would be cool. I can't find my key, or order info, so I'm going to purchase this again, as being without the best screen saver ever isn't "the in" thing lol.

Marine Aquarium 2.6 is up to 28 fish, including two Lionfishes. It supports widescreen, dual screen, a clock, calendar, and adding your own logos.

Marine Aquarium 3, which has no firm release date, will contain a revised background.

I talked to Jim the other day and he said he was going to be giving his first shot at lightplay and shaders. I haven't heard the results, I was kind of wondering who won myself.

Are you still with us Jim?

Morgan - I've decided to switch away from iPowerweb. One of the main reasons I went with them was their "host up to 6 domains in one account" claim. Well, I just tried to add my daughter's website, and was informed that I'd need a whole new account. The "6 domains" business just means 6 pointers to one website. Register.com already does that for me with simple name-aliasing.

So, who would you recommend?

I am sure Jim would have waved the flag had he even come in second (just don't be waving a white flag)

I'm going through the Shader example code line by line. Just can't figure out why they need to use copies of everything instead of the actual vertex buffers...
