If you mean the forum, you can get it at http://www.invisionboard.com/Hey can i have a copy of your site with the php that i can edit and change the bars and stuff. i just want the system kind of thing if you get wat i mean. Please. I have been trying to make a site for ages but i cant phpify anything to make it good. You do realise it will get completely changed eventually
If you mean the rest of the site, you can have a copy of it for $85,000 USD (Not kidding) to pay for the 1000s of hours we've put into it.

If you want to begin to code something like this start learning php, and code it from stratch, that way u'd be more "in touch" with your code and know what to edit when things go wrong

We're getting close to 10GB a day now... we're switching to a brand new DEDICATED server in a couple of weeks because the MySQL load is raping the shared environment we're in now. V2 will be an even bigger load because more of the site is generated dynamically rather than hard coded like it is now. It'll cost a ton of money but Ty is giving us a kick ass price and management cost and I can cover the amount so no worries. It definitely costs more than $19.99 a month lol!A successful site like this is a monsterous achievement, one that I wouldn't be eager to part with. Be aware that aside from the thousands of hours of work that has been put into the coding and design of this site, there would have had to have been some serious financial backing as well. I wouldn't have any idea what hosting would cost for this site since it would eat up bandwidth like you wouldn't believe with the thousands of hits it recieves. P2L is a *very* popular site and I believe is Faken's most cherished posession (aside from his AvP models )

you don't get to the top of a company by the owner simply going "damn whats ur cv? blank you say.. heres my leading role.." nor do you get a website that someones put all their effort into because they are closing downwat!?! oh well, well that doesnt help much i still not closer to finding out how i should start making a website or anything. How did this website actually start anyway? or does any of you have a website that is going into the dumps that i could mess around with the stuff. Not actually mess with the site that is online.
its simply not the way it works sonny jim

At one point I had looked at dedicated hosting, and I quickly reconsidered something else. There's no way I could cover those costs lol. I'm glad P2L has outgrown our environment and that we have the resources to expand and grow with our needs.We're getting close to 10GB a day now... we're switching to a brand new DEDICATED server in a couple of weeks because the MySQL load is raping the shared environment we're in now.

A note to "sonny jim" To start a website you must consider the following things:
- What is it going to be on? Focus on one topic at first, and maybe grow later.
- What're you going to call it?
- What is your avaliable budget?
- Who's going to do the main work? You or someone else?
- Is this a hobby for you, or are you genuinely going to put something into it?
- Do you have a plan? This is a big one. A website with no planning behind it will fail quite quickly. I recently figured out a business plan for my site, and I'm now completely rewriting it to fit that plan, and I've noticed a considerable jump in traffic now that I'm doing that. People want to be reassured you know what you're doing.
- Is the financial backing there? Can you afford a designer and/or coder? Can you do both yourself or are you going to have to pay someone to do it?
The list goes on and on... starting a site may seem simple, but starting a great site takes some time and planning.
