Thanks very much Grim. I will most probably ask you to help. What hosting have you got, i have seen some which is quite cheap and got quite alot of spce, although im thinking its a little bit too cheap, meaning it might not be that good or something, lol.

I forgot if i put this, BUT i have scrapped the first Scream Coasters apart from the home page ad i am starting on a new site called scream coasters instead. This is mainly because my friend is making a site called TPD and that is very much like the original scream coasters was going to be. SOO Now i have decided to make a site dedicated to the history of the roller coaster, the workings, and things like that. It will have a gallery and a forum and things too, but it is mainly concentrating on history, workings and things.

These are the sections i am including so far:
How did roller Coasters begin? The original roller Coasters
>Russian Mountains
>Switchbacks
>Mauch Chunk railroad etc

Legendary Coaster designers of the past
>La Marcus Adna Thompson
>John Miller
>Frederick Church & Thomas Prior (1 of the best IMO)
> Herbert Schmeck
>Harry Traver (also 1 of the best IMO although he killed a few more people )

Welcome to Coney island and the other legendary parks of the early 1900s

Designers of the 1900s, The steel takeover
>John Allen
>Summers and Dinn
>Anton Schwarzkopf
>Toomer and Bacon

The Modern Day manufacturers of the roller coaster
>Arrow Dynamics (now out of Business bought by S&S)
>CCI (Custom Coasters International they do not produce amusement park rides anymore)
>Intamin
>B&M
>S&S power
>Vekoma
>Premier
>Huss
>Fabbri
>Gestlauer
>KMG
>Mack
>Mondial
>Moser
>Pinfari
>Schwarzkopf
>Zamperla
>Zierer

Parks and rides of the future, what can we expect?

The most legendary and ground breaking coasters ever planned/made
>Crystal beach Cyclone (the most terrifying ride ever?)
>Revere Beach Cyclone
>The Airplane Coaster (the most beautiful coaster ever?)
>Cyclone Racer
>The bat
>Batman the ride
>Magnum XL200
>Thriller (Now zonga)
>Eurostar
>Raven
>X

The roller Coaster reference book
>Roller Coaster terms
>meanings
>Track styles
>Wood or Steel?
>Elements

How do roller Coasters work?
>Ride Physics
>G forces
>Inventions (the chain dog, wheel arrangements etc)
>Restraint systems
>Human capabilities

I will include others if people want, just suggest them in this topic. I have only listed ones that i can really cover by myself, or with only a little help. BTW i will be asking people to write articles for the site, such as ride reviews, and articles for the history pages and things like that. If anyone wants to write and supply an article for the site just post in this topic saying you would like to do so, an what you would like to write about, and i will add you too the list, and when the time comes i will contact you. [:D]

I will be starting work on this site again very soon, straight after the match up contest, and my exams.

Thanks
JPECOOL
