Dual Ages website

I have made a website for the MMORPG that some of my friends and I are developing called Dual Ages at dualages.tripod.com. The game probably won't release until around March or April (and even then it will be super small and basic), but I wanted to drum up hype and interest early. Now, I know what I have done (I.E. putting up a site for a game that isn't even finnished) may seem childish and unprofessional, but I have a few good reasons for putting it up now. One, I have learned a few basic things about maintaining a website (there's always some piece of text I can make better). Two, I was under pressure form my "Development Team", those 4 other mid. school kids. They simply don't understand that making a MMORPG, even a small one, takes a lot of work. They wanted to see some results, so I put the site up. I probably should have let them walk away, but they do give me some good ideas for the game every now and then, even though I won't be able to implement them for a while (I could have gone to SourceForge and gotten some real programmers, but I didn't feel like dealing with them and their "If we host your project it has to adhear to the following 9,999,999 rules" page). Check out the site, let me know what you think of it, and walk away with a warm fuzzy feeling. I'll probably end up doing most of the coding myself, but I think I will have fun doing it. P.S., I have read many more tutorials and books than what is posted in the "Tutorials we've read" section. No one on the "Development Team" had any programming experience (go figure), so I had to get them up to speed quick.

Can you add my vote for me please? I’m too lazy to register on the forum. I vote for “100% 3D”.

Thanks! You’re a real buddy!

2D all the way, unless you've actually done considerate amount 3D programming before. Don't work with more than you can handle at one time. Though, if you have the experience, than 3D can be a good choice if you think you have the resources.
