@Wayne,
I know it's been said and though I've contributed to the site monetarily, in the past, I haven't done it enough, but thank you for Amiga.org. This page has been my homepage and it's been that way for several years. To quote many of my friends when they borrow my lappy or desktop to browse something, "Well, we know where your loyalties lie...".
I would love to see an updated version of Amiga.org and while I empathize with those that still browse with their Amigas, preferring to tell them to get out of the "Dark Ages", I understand where you're coming from. There's no pleasing everyone.
I remember finding out about this site, 11 years ago, from one of your former co-workers. I can't remember his name, nor for the life of me, where I found him, but it was when I finally migrated to a PC and in an ICQ chat, I was commenting on how much I hated Windoze and like Amiga Workbench so much more. I kept going on and on about it and I remember him saying verbatim, "You sound like my co-worker, Wayne. He's as rabid as you are. You should check out his site:
www.amiga.org".
I've been here ever since....
I also understand your frustrations with coding. Rarely, do I do any Web Development anymore, as I got burnt out a while back and since I didn't keep up with the latest and greatest, I'm out of form. Same goes with audio production and engineering. I still keep up with my graphic arts, but that's 'cos it's my main source of income and rarely do I ever fire up an "Amiga" (ie, UAE) anymore. I used to make texture maps exclusively in UAE just to say I did, as well as color-tweak comic pages using Photogenics, just to say an Amiga was used, but nowadays, it's just faster (and more efficient) to just do it all in Photoshop and Painter.
You ever make it to my side of the Continent, Sir, the first round's on me.
