Just posting to let everyone know that I will not be online very much at all for the next few weeks as I am visiting my family for Christmas. I hope everyone has a safe and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

I was recently looking for a nice graphing plugin to create some monthly charts for on the homepage of the Donations Xtreme admin panel, instead of the messy overview that it currently uses. While all of the plugins that I found created charts, they just didn’t have the nice feel that I was after. I then found jqPlot, which instantly sat above the rest....

Hi everyone, welcome to the start of a series of posts on development for the open source CMS Evolution Xtreme. This series is going to go through the basics of creating modules, starting at basic folder structure and going right through to user interaction and submissions.

I have been waiting for this game to be released for a little over a year now, since I saw it on the front cover of Atomic magazine. And I have to say, it has definitely been worth the wait. Even though it was released in 2000, last week, I would have still said that my absolute No. 1 favourite campaign was in the original Deus Ex game. But as of Thursday, that...

Instead of working and doing part time uni, I will be completing full time uni for the next semester. This means more homework, which I am definitely not looking forward to, but at the same time, I will not be working, so there is a chance that I will...

It was a fairly normal Friday, I got home from work, came online, spoke to SgtLegend, and before we knew it,we were slaughtering zombies in L4D2. All of a sudden, we were rudely interrupted by an Xtreme user, Malius, wondering if there would be any chance of a mobile mod for Xtreme. Now, we had both discussed a mobile mod before, and both agreed that it would...
