Found some lost treasure
CodenStuff
Hi,

Just wanted to say that today I cleaned out a cupboard and stumbled across a bag full of old CD-R discs. So I sat down and went through a good chunk of them and so far I found loads of old projects, old backups of the website and some software and games I used back in the Windows 98 days lol.

I'm so happy, this is like finding a gold nugget for me as I thought I'd lost most of this stuff. I've already loaded up old site backups and wow how the site has changed since 2010...back in the days when the layout was so static and boring, menu's never seemed to blend right and we all used to play Team Fortress on a night time lol.....also I'm not sure why RunarM had an image in his signature of a dog humping a mans leg :duh;

Loads of cd's still to search and hopefully I'll find some more lost treasure :D

Yeah brings up a lot of memories when you look at stuff you done in the past, and for this site damn it has changed a lot in the years i have been using it. And i have always found it amusing to go back though my old code, and cringe about how i used to write things.

I know what you mean about how we used to write things. Looking back at projects when I first started the code is really messy and it took me something like 20 lines of code to do something that I can now do with only 2-3 lines lol

At the end of the day it is all a part of the learning process and you get better with practice....lots and lots of practice :)

So I also found some old HDD's in the back of the cupboard but not wanting to take my PC apart to fit and look at them I went out and bought myself one of those HDD docking stations, only cost £14 and it works like a charm.

On the old HDD's I have found most if not all of my old projects including Infinity updating software, ProXL-J (remember that!) and CnSDesktop...plus loads more cool stuff I thought I'd lost forever. I wish you could all see my face right now, I look as happy as a child on Christmas morning :D

Also found some old site files from a few years ago. Remember the old twitter like social page we used to have? well I found it and I may re-implement it soon.

Keep your eyes on the forum as I will soon post a lot of my old projects (including source-code) for you all to take a look at because I know some of you have been asking for the source to a few of them in the past.

Awesome to hear! Couldn't agree more with how exciting it is to find old lost projects :)
