mjrbaseball Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 Ryan appears to be busy with something ... he hasn't updated the site in several weeks even though he has a number of new submissions. Sometimes people's lives get in the way of their websites. Be patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruColor Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 Yeah, be patient. I've sent him a boatload of new stuff lately (and lots more to come). He'll get around to it.He's been a tremendous help to me over the past couple of years; he basically got me going on my Pursuit Of All Things Pantone...he and Howie...Ryan and I exchange emails a bit, and he seems like a very nice guy, but he IS very busy, and can't drop everything going on in his life just to update a "hobby".

-kj Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 On the front login page. That's a real shame. I would think he could leave the site up as-is without taking too much of his time up. It's a shame to see something like this go under.I'd offer to look into putting it up, but I don't think my DSL line would handle the bandwidth necessary. Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!

shiznit1083 Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 What needs to be done to hold it on mine? What requirements do I need? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketsan22 Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 If he's closing shop, why doesn't he open it up until October 3rd then for everyone??? Or, if he's closing, can someone email me their username and password so I can snag what I need??? I have to get these Mcfarlanes done!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJR Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 He's not closing shop, he's just transferring things over to someone else. We'll have to wait and see who takes over and how things work then.

KCScout76 Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 rocketsan22You can use the search site - also, just click on the "NCAA" word next to any NCAA logo - like the feature ones on the front page of the site and it will take you to the NCAA logos - I stubbled across it that way.Ryan - you da man!!!

Mac the Knife Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 If someone would just host the logos on a site with not such rigid and elitist access, that would help too Krackzenspeil, or whatever that damned word was we had to use...Klickenpants? Krumblebutz...whatever, just give me my access!!! Please...Rigid and elitist? Puh-leeze.Those who provide the webspace (such as myself here, and formerly at thesle.com) place very few restrictions (exceeding X number of MB in storage space and no advertising in my case with Chris' site, for example). In my case that was it - no money ever changed hands, nor have I ever asked Chris (or Ryan when I hosted his site) for anything.In Ryan's case, he had a two-fold problem: he had multiple people literally ripping directly from his site. It wasn't a real problem for me, as I imposed no bandwidth limitations, but it lead to a bigger issue - he didn't have safeguards in place to reduce potential cases of people doing illegal things with his material.When people starting doing things that the site was specifically not intended for, Ryan was forced to make changes to the site. He also got frustrated to a point where he's not putting the focus into it that he used to, which might explain the update and admission delays.I haven't seen anything about him shutting down Friday.

Sec19Row53 Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 When you go to the main page (where you log in), it's in the circle to the left. It's fuzzy on my monitor (anyone else see it that way?). It's where I sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 When you go to the main page (where you log in), it's in the circle to the left. It's fuzzy on my monitor (anyone else see it that way?).I had to refresh the page, and yeah, it's kinda fuzzy. Honestly, I think they should merge theSLE and CC.com, although Chris probably doesn't have the time for that...my idea would be to make it necessary to have an account and stuff to get vector images, but let anyone see the raster stuff...anyway, that's just my 2 coppers, Ryan specifically asked that we not discuss this here, so I think we should conform to that request.

Saintsfan Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 To be honest, unless there are legal reasons and stuff, I don't get why SLE has to be membership based at all! I am sure Ryan puts loads of work into the site and stuff, but surely something like that has to be a labor of love, and if it were me I would be happy anyone who wanted to using stuff from the site, and not turning into a kinda secret society!!!! 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruColor Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 Well...partly due to the fact that a large percentage of the logos on the SLE were in fact, official team/league graphics. The Copyright Police could REALLY get bent out of shape over the fact that trademarked logos were available to the public.I know that I was a lot more comfortable uploading the official graphics in MY collection knowing that they weren't going to be made available to just anyone out there to use-n-abuse...this is why the stuff I sent him always went up as "Vectorized by Unknown"...Anyway, Ryan just emailed me a couple of hours ago; he wanted to explain what has been happening. Hopefully, the site will still continue...he's been working with some guys to keep it going... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
