I'm looking for feed back on a website that I have put together. As a fan of fan films, I've wanted to be able to find Star Wars fan films basically in one place. Obviously, there are a lot of films out there, and no one site has info on all of them. So, I put this together for a couple of reasons, but first and foremost, it's intended to be a site to find locations to be able to download Star Wars fan films. In addition, I have a section for streaming films from YouTube, AtomFilms, etc. I'm looking for films that I don't have, so that I can include them, and I'm looking for feedback on what everyone thinks of the site. All feedback is welcome.

You're not blind, but I must be. My apologies, it's there now.

I have updated the downloads page to include links (via buttons) to film-maker's sites, etc. where I could find them - which is most of them. I have also had a lot of help tracking down more films, so I've added several as well. As always, please let me know what you think:

http://kuatengineer.webs.com/downloadslibrary.htm

Also, I'm still looking to find a few films that I have seen in listings, etc. These are:

Dark Encounter
Darkened Force
Dark Threat
Dark Uprising
Double Cross
Rebel Heroes
Rescue on Endor

If any of you know where to find them, or have them archived on a disc somewhere, I would appreciate any help in getting them in the downloads library. You can e-mail me at kuatengineer@yahoo.com or PM me here.

Thanks

It is too bad that it's only YouTube quality. I have it on the streaming video page (anyone have it?), but I would love to get it for download. My next 'phase' will be to do home buttons for streaming video and flash animation films. As well as adding films whenever I find them, or they get released.

There's a lot more Flash Animations you could link to.

You haven’t mentioned the Star Wars Spoofs.

There’s still a few on AtomFilms that you could mention, and there’s a whole bunch of Star Wars flash cartoons on Newgrounds. Most aren’t that good, but there are a few gems including Star Wars: Old Wounds.

Trevor, thanks a ton! This is a great example of why I'm putting all of this together. There is so much out there if you just know where to find it. I feel like I've found a lot - but there's more I find or someone shows me every day! You have been a huge help.

No worries. There’s lots of stuff out there. Just be careful what you put on your site. Just 'cos it's Star Wars related doesn’t make it good and/or family friendly.

If you're going to put everything on your site, may want to have a rating system, or at least a warning system for stuff that's not any good or family friendly. Something like "Only suitable for die hard fans of Star Wars Holiday Special". grin

I've seen some stuff that I have chosen not to put on the site due to language, etc., and I've been trying to think of a way that wouldn't involve rating every film. Maybe just a general warning "most films would be rated PG-13 or lower, but parents should preview films before letting childern watch them...."? Something like that... thinking

Depends how much work you want to put into it. I assume you've watched everything that you've put on your site so you could use something like what Newgrounds uses.

Nudity: None, Mild or Excessive.
Violence: None, Mild or Excessive.
Explicit Audio: None, Mild or Excessive.
Explicit Text: None, Mild or Excessive.
Adult Themes: None, Mild or Excessive.

There's some things I'd rather not have seen, but you have to take the bad with the good on the internet. If it was me I just wouldn't put anything with explicit language or nudity on your site. Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with it, but nudity or explicit language aren’t the first things that come to mind when you think of Star Wars. Should make it as PG friendly as possible.

Trevor, I agree. I want to make it as PG as possible. There a couple of PG-13 slips in there for sure, but I don't think I have anything on there that would go beyond that. I would like to say I have watched 100% of what's on there, but reallistically something could have gotten by. On some of the Flash films, they were plainly labelled as Mature, etc., and I avoided those. Plus, I did put some verbiage on the home page about previewing before children watch, etc.
