Thank You and Goodnight

Monday, September 14th, 2009

Hi Everyone,

After three and a half years, I’m closing the Stargate and shutting down the Puddle Jumper.

It’s been a great time, getting to know other fans from around the world, but the time and bandwidth requirements are just too prohibitive to carry on.

The site will be phased out over the next month or so. If you’re interested in taking over the running of the site, then please contact me asap at rescueteam@puddle-jumper.co.uk.

So long, and thanks for all the hits!

*New* Official SG1 Promo Shots Added

Thursday, April 3rd, 2008

As a special treat for you all, and to make up for the downtime of late, there’s a whole new section “SG1 Images” for the official high-res promotional shots from the series.

I’ve already uploaded a bunch of Season 9 shots of Daniel Jackson and Teal’c. If you have any promo shots that you’d be willing to share with the Jumper community, I’d love to hear from you.

Server Maintenance – 5th March

Monday, March 3rd, 2008

The nice people at Memset are moving me to a better, greener, datacentre, so there’s some downtime coming:

“The server has been scheduled for maintenance on Wednesday 5th March. We intend to start at 22:00, so your server will go offline some time between then and midnight. We expect the downtime to be 3-6 hours, however please be prepared for up to eight hours in case of unforseen eventualities.”

Puddle Jumper gets a Refit

Thursday, February 21st, 2008

I’ve finally got around to doing something about the site’s “backend”, the Jumper is now running on WordPress with the NextGen gallery plugin.

This means you can now subscribe to our RSS feed and be automatically updated when new wallpapers are added. There’s going to be a lot on new goodies coming very soon, so it just might be worth your while :-)

If you notice any bugs, have any issues, complaints or comments, please let me know either via the comments system or at the usual email address.

New Stargate Store!

Tuesday, February 12th, 2008

Keep up to date with the latest Stargate releases (and help support puddle jumper) via our new Stargate Store, powered by Amazon.

All processing is done by Amazon, to keep your details safe and secure. If you’re looking to buy Stargate Atlantis or SG1 goodies, I’d really appreciate it if you used the store, it won’t cost you any extra and it’ll help towards the running costs of the site.

Contributors Wanted

Saturday, February 9th, 2008

Hi everyone, thanks for continuing to visit and support Puddle-Jumper!

I’ve been ill for the last six months with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, and it has stopped me doing lots of things that I’d like to (including new papers and site updates). Because of this I thought I’d reach out to you nice people and see if there’s anyone one out there who might be interested in contributing desktop wallpapers to share with the Jumper community (now over 1700 visitors a month!)

If you think you might be able to lend a hand, then I’d love to hear from you! Emails to webmaster [at] puddle-jumper [dot] co [dot] uk, or webinfo [at] whatkatydid [dot] me [dot] uk. Thanks guys, you rock!
