  Togo from TBL was kind enough to register the domain from the ether and got in contact with me to get it running again (for historical purposes). I had it up for 2 years from 2015 or so but decided to discontinue paying to keep it running so pulled it down again, so thank you to Togo for deciding to re-register the domain in October 2019 :) ~Yukon

>>> Balto Central went down in 2005 due to a hard drive crash, then domain issues bringing the site down (thanx to a certain someone), then the last full working copy was lost in yet another hard drive about a week after that (it was a long time ago, exact facts are a bit fuzzy).

It was only in 2015 that I had the money for data recovery (hard drive circuit board fried and I couldn't find another compatible one) and this website was one of the things I recovered.

Somehow I landed up with 4 differently partially corrupt versions and had to spend 3 evenings getting working parts from each one and rewriting some code, but 10 years later here it is, mostly for historical purposes and your enjoyment :)

After many hours work combining 4 partially corrupt backups of this website from different dates, I've put it back online for historical purposes and your enjoyment :)

AAAGH! I hate long vacations! Anyway, what have I missed while I was away? ;D

Greykitty [2 Feb 09:51]
It's a glitch in the site. It's happened a lot since it was switched over to a new server. Yukon will fix it when he has time.

Mettwurst [2 Feb 03:05]
Theres a big problem with the fanart pictures, the pictures they were send in by me are shown not under my name, it's under Yukon's. Also my name (Mettwurst) is not in the list of members but if i registrate me new it says the name is used. I don't know what that is and i ask if it could be changed. If not or you want me here not then kill my pictures too. thankies!

1st Place:
Greykitty

2nd Place:
Aneiryu
Both entrants have won professional web hosting packages of their choice for 1 year worth over $100 with no limits on account features (unlimited emails, unlimited sub-domains, multiple domain hosting, built-in blogs and forums, etc.). Greykitty has won a 350MB account whilst Aneiryu has won a 250MB account, and Greykitty has also won a domain registration/renewal of her choice worth $12 (something like thegreykitty.com would be nice). Congrats to the two of you, and sorry it took so long for me to get prizes organized!

:: Chat v1.6 :: (14 December 2005)
I've made some neat improvements to the chat, including a message on the front page of this website telling you how many users are in chat (if there are any), and protection of your member usernames: you have to login to chat using your Balto Central username and password to use your member username (this prevents identity theft). I've made a few other improvements, too...

:: Webring :: (2 December 2005)
Balto Web Ring added to front page.

:: More improvements :: (22 November 2005)
The functionality to ban users isn't finished, but it's been improved, and I've found a nice programming trick to help with the website - using it I managed to cut 67 lines of code down to 9. Not that that means anything to most ppl here, but it effectively cut the processing (loading) time of the front page down by half and has also paved way for future improvements. I've also improved the signup page a bit.

:: Fan art automatically given more logical filenames :: (21 November 2005)
Previously, if you saved a fan art image from this website, the filename would be something like 758.jpg - very confusing to sort through later and doesn't give the artist proper credit. Now, that filename will be (for example) Greykitty_-_Steele_[BC758].jpg. When saving files you can now easliy sort them by artist, and the BC758 identification is so you know where you got the file from and can always get to that fan art on the website to check details on it later.
