I have created a new site to further the engrossment of the Matrix world: Many of us have come up with aspects of RP to appeal to bluepills such as the Mega City Dept of Energy or just details within our stories such as Fenshire's 'Chessman Sweets' cigarettes. In addition, there are many details within the city that make it 3 dimensional such as Kalt Chemical or Peg's Diner.

Similar to RMC's new bluepill vantage, the City Phone Book Directory is a new site where all these details are brought together, brought to life and utilized differently (specifically to promote the underworld beneath these 'plain' elements). Here is a preview of things to come:

Here is the inspiration for City Phone.

If you would like to advertise with City Phone, send me a PM here (as the site forms are till under construction) with the following details:

  • Name of Ad
  • Short description of Ad
  • Category of Ad (Auto, Business, Education, Entertainment, Hobby, Housing, News, Products, Public Services, Radio, Travel, Venues)
  • A simple graphic 400x200
  • No more than 2 links that can be reached through your ad (options include a direct click, embedded graphical code, embedded html code alt="code here"SMILEY

Looks good, although its really bugging me that the MxO Hardline City logo is not being used.

I modeled the key pad in the header after the logo on the hardline. I had to choose between "City [keypad]" or "City Phone [keypad]". So between the books on Oracle's fridge and the hardline logo, I took a bit from each.

Hm, you really did dig deep. At first looking at that image I never even noticed the phonebooks.

Some of it was guesswork. Looking at the phone books, I think there is a logo to the right of "City Phone" but I can't make it out.

I couldn't get a very clear picture of the hardline logo, either, so I had to re-generate the logo to what I thought it would look like. I figure I got a happy medium between what the logo looks like and my own interpretation of it.

Ooh, I like the looks of this a lot! I might even create an ad myself, maybe for Ernesto's...

Yours looks neat.

Now all we have to do is figure out the relevance of the letters and numbers on the fridge!  There must be a purpose!

In all seriousness, this is a really cool idea!

Thanks for that shot, Rarebit. I searched and searched for a better angle and couldn't find one like that.

I suppose I could find a place for this logo now that I know what it is.

meh, it's a draft.


Btw, I am accepting faction ads as long as they are a bluepill vantage.

Very interesting, Vesuveus.

It looks pretty good, too!  I look forward to hearing more about this.
