If you decided to read this before E-mailing me... I thank you. You may've saved me some hassle by checkin' here first. If you don't find what you're looking for in my website or on here... E-mail me your query. And if you happen to have a question that was located on my website and you couldn't find it... I will send you the URL and exact location where it may be found. Thanks.
Can you explain how the order of Final Fantasy games ended up being 1, 2, 3, 7, and 8?
FF1 is FF1. FF2 and 3 were never sent over to the US back in the early 90's... so when FF4 arrived, they called it FF2. Are ya with me? Ok... now FF5 was also never sent to the US from Japan... so when FF6 came out, it was called FF3. All the Final Fantasy games that will be made in the future will be sent to the US, so they went ahead and called FF7, FF7 and called FF8, FF8, etc.
Am I allowed to use the music files from your website?
Absolutely. For personal use or your website, you are welcome to use whatever music I have available.
Can I copy the URL(s) for your music files to place on my website?
That's fine as well. I used to do that when I first started making websites because I thought it was easier and saved me space... and it did. However, if you do that, be warned that your music will load much slower because people that view your website will have to not only have to download what's on your page, but the music files from my server over at Angelfire. It will increase your load time considerably.
I like a lot of your pictures. Can I use them for my website?
Well... I have some rules on that. You need to E-mail me and ask me which picture you'd like to use. Many of the pictures you see on my website, I have modified for my own use. I don't like people to use those because all they're really doing is copying another website design. I'd like my website to stay original if possible. Other pictures (such as the one at the top of the FF2 page) are fine because they are very common and can be freely used by anyone.
I'm not tryin' to sound like a butthole or anything with these... just think about it this way: If you spent hours of time making a picture and putting cool effects in it for your website... would you want someone else to use it on their website?
What's up with the stupid ad banner that pops up on every screen? Can't you fix that?
In all honesty... no, I cannot. Angelfire told all admin's one day that they were not getting enough publicity from the websites they hosted. That I can understand. However, I think they're being major buttholes on this one. As you've probably already seen, I have one ad for them on my Intro Page and two more on this page alone, plus many others through the website.
The best way I found to take care of the problem was to just minimize the ad window once, and no more will pop-up as you browse throughout Final Fantasy Universe, or any other Angelfire (that's three) hosted website.
I think your website needs more pictures... and some movies. Are you gonna' add more?
Well... along with Angelfire's screw up with the ads... I found that they boosted my megabyte space from 6 to 50!
So in short, you all WILL be seeing more, better looking, pictures and... perhaps, just MAYBE... some movies. I'm not promising anything though.
How do you get your music to appear as it does on your webpages?
If people were smart enough to look at my source code, I wouldn't have to put this on here. The embed command tells the browser to put the midi file in a media player on the web page itself. The loop command tells how many times the media player should play your song. Put none if you want to play it just once (highly recommended because it's annoying when people play the same crap over and over and over), infinate if you want it to play for eternity, or just put in a number for how many times.
You can also put it in the background instead of on the page by using bgsound instead of embed. However, only MIE supports bgsound. That's why I'm forced to use embed... because Netscape sucks.
Are you ever gonna' put up Final Fantasy 5 on your website?
Ok listen, I'll make you a deal. The day I become a homosexual bigot, I will put up a page about Final Fantasy 5. I have never seen a game as goofy retarded (no offense to anyone with a mental or physical impairment, just an expression I use) as that in my life. I will not support that monstrosity program.
I am in no way afraid to say that if you like that game, you are a complete tool. That's called giving in to the temptations that companies put out there for you so you'll end up exactly where they want you... in your pocketbook looking for 50 dollars to pay for a crap compilation of code and pixels that's worth 2 cents. If anyone out there doesn't believe me, then go play the game. You'll see. Oh yeah, and don't go pay out your rearend for it, just download it on emulator. That'll be enough for you to realize how much money you would have wasted.
Why don't you have very much up for FF9 and up?
It is true that I did start to do those pages. I left them there because in case I ever want to do anything with them, I don't want to rewrite all that code. Why is there nothing on them? Because I don't wanna' waste my time making information for games that do not live up to the good Squaresoft name. The question on this does not conern why I don't like them, so if that starts coming up in E-mail and message boards, then I'll answer it seperately.
Are you ever gonna' put up an FF5 section?
I have thought long and hard about it and- ... well, wait, no... I really didn't have to think at all. That game is the worst thing to happen to Nintendo since 'Bad Dudes'. Two guys who get all horny worked up over the princess's rainbow-licking, cross-dressing, pirate sister? Ok ok, the ridiculously lame story... that I can handle; however, the game play is goofy slow and mastering one job class takes nearly the whole freaking game. Did Squaresoft leave the replay value oversees? Personally, I thought FF4(2) had better graphics. I'll tell you guys what though... I'll propose a deal. You all stop asking me if I'll put up FF5, and I'll stop slandering the ever-loving crap out of it.
