Gotta love the..." yeah, I'll get around to that sometime" ambiance of The Mothership. It has a gloriously 1990s retro feel in the Gallery especially.. ;) Gotta be patient, it'll happen... sometime when you least expect it, Bermuda will go all ninja and surprise you all...


Maybe...
:D

I'm still really hoping that when all this is done that they will get some of the pictures from the recording of this album up there, that is always a nice thing to look back at to try to pinpoint what song they were working on in which pictures...etc.

And well, I don't know if this is just me, but I'd love to see Al take all of his past twitter pictures and get them up and archived on the main Al page as well, that would be so much easier to navigate and remember...

Yeah the site is definitely way outdated. I would like to see a Flash-based site replace the currently existing one to coincide with Alpocalypse's release. When Straight Outta Lynwood came out, they just barely overhauled the site. I think it's been pretty much the same layout since 2003. And a lot has happened to the Internet in the intervening eight years.

The site does have an outdated 90's thing going on. However, I would not want too much wiz-bang stuff. Some sites go so far in that stuff you can't find the info!

Well Bermuda never made it real fancy because of people with slow internet connections, he didnt want people to wait while it loaded. I'd say its no longer a concern though. As far as pics, when I showed Al my CNR painting he was saying how good it was, and I said that I submitted it to fan art, but that hadnt been updated in a while, he said Id have to see Jon about that

I actually prefer the site now compared to other official band sites, such as Katy Perry, Ben Folds and Muse. Weird Al and CAKE are where it's at when it comes to site design.

I still have dial-up, and Weird Al's site is one of the few I can still rely on.

Then he should do what most other intensive sites do, which is have a hi-fi and lo-fi version.
