This is surreal reading that this was 10 years ago - I'm sure we came across eachother on Facepunch back in the day and I remember all of the amusing threads. Congrats on this landmark.

Just a small correction - I believe it's 3 months or longer with an active service (90 days). :-)

Own island + trading would be great. You could end up having an island that "specialises" on a certain comodity and trading with other players.

You seem to be just using: https://cvbox.org/

I managed to generate the exact one from your homepage using this.

There's no source to suggest this is only HTML? Seems like it's in PHP. Is it open somewhere?

Not sure on the content itself as it needs an email, but the website looks exactly like one of those "Buy our eBook now only $49 for the first 50 people, make millions today!"

I get instantly put off by these kind of designs so my only suggestion would be to improve the initial look of the page.

Looks nice and I've been looking for something similar, although as another person has said $9.99 per month is fairly steep compared to bigger names that do "similar". I also use a zero-based app that costs ~$4-5 per month.

Might be good for an "early adopters" type of thing. Otherwise looks nice overall and congrats. :-)

Using mobiles/social media is a lot easier to grasp than the steps under "How to do it". Copying files around a mobile file system and building a whole Android application is completely different to what you are talking about.

You still need to get those materials into space somehow.

Really nice looking app and I've been looking to move to something else. Will give it a try :-)

Really like the website info/design, saw it posted somewhere a few days ago and was going to sign up. Only thing that stopped me (and maybe others?) was the price.

$10 for 2 URLs is quite high when comparing to other uptime monitoring services that have been around a lot longer, most likely would have signed up if the URLs were a bit higher or the price was a tad lower ($5-6).

Otherwise looks nice all around though. :-)

I experienced a similar thing while testing it. Had it on another monitor with an app in full screen and it just locked onto a single frame.

Hi there,

Would be nice to see what it looks like and what it reports on in more details (like images) without having to sign up first. :-) Just the first thing I noticed.
