I recently found one member's site on Xepher (specifically, Cammiluna's), and I was impressed with your free hosting service. I've been interested for a while in creating a site to complement the forums I run, and your hosting system seems like the perfect way to do that. There's a bunch of things I make that might be worth hosting, and I was wondering whether they would be a good fit for Xepher.

1. Photo galleries. I've never uploaded these anywhere, but some of my work is impressive, such as this photo. All material is safe for work, and I plan to upload new photos regularly.

2. Game development projects. I'm currently working on an indie RPG project, and I've made a bunch of Mario-oriented fangames over the years, including Revenge of the Walrus, which was voted by the MFGG community to be the second-best game released on the site in 2011.

3. Original music/remixes. I occasionally produce original songs, and I also make remixes of video game music. Some of these songs have earned critical acclaim. If you don't mind Ogg Vorbis files, here's an archive of my more recent stuff.

4. Comics. My forum's head moderator is working on a comic, Splendour Without Diminishment. She was away in Mexico for a while, so she hasn't had a chance to scan the latest pages, but many members of the MFGG community enjoyed her older comics thanks to her simple but expressive artwork and witty dialogue. This is one of her older comics, and this is a Pokemon comic she never finished.

Thanks for reading this, and let me know what you think.

I'm sorry, but as I mentioned when you emailed me, an application will need to provide more examples than that. There's only one photo for the photography section, two pages for the comic you mention, etc. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying no, but one of the criteria here is to see some evidence that you're committed to whatever project(s) you're asking for space for. That generally means a decent corpus of prior work. If you have more, please let us see it.

Here's a pretty good sample of the photo gallery. I could include some more images if you'd like: https://www.box.com/s/rz951zjuyci2rra5e2v7. The photos would probably be what I'd update most frequently, since the comic project seems to be on hiatus. I could also link you a few more music remixes if you'd like.

Let me know if you think this would be a good fit for Xepher. If it isn't, that's OK too.

The pictures aren't bad, but a photo gallery alone fits much better at places like picasa or flickr, and isn't really something that needs the type of hosting I provide. I'm afraid I still have to say no at this point.

That's all right - I understand. I think the site I have in mind is going to be more of a "mixed bag" than most of the other Xepher sites I see. Thanks for getting back with me.
