that’s our thought at this point as well. much of the content is largely useless now, but we’re moving for historical preservation of the mac gui scene.

Okay, time to move on from the old and give us something new – the Mac has moved on, it’s time for you to do the same, unless the intent is to have a site for the Retro-Mac crowd. Please, don’t over-think things. This site evolved into what it was over several years – just start simple again, and build. Asking about the old stuff will just confuse some and slow down the process of bringing this site back to life.
.
Given that, I’m still skeptical. Change the graphic at the top of this page. Tell us who’s on the “team”. Open the curtain. Then I’ll be more likely to believe that you’re earnestly trying to bring this site back.
Wait, let me make sure I understood: Finding a place to “put the old snapshots” is delaying/elongating this process?
.
Fair enough. I just wanted to make sure I got that right. On your way.
Yes, of course they should stay. Every ResEx user who ever sent in a snapshot will love to look at their really old setup. Also, it is stuff like the snapshots that made ResEx different from other similar sites. The personal touch.
In fact, you should keep _all_ the old material, as ResExcellence is a huge piece of computer/OS history.
(And since when were the snapshots “useful”? Firstmost, they were fun!)

Shouldn’t your first priority be to bring up a great site that lets creative people share and showcase their work, and only /then/ worry about retrofitting the old stuff in there? Sure, it’s interesting for nostalgic reasons—especially to those of us who remember names like Arlo Rose—but the site is sure to be a monumental let-down unless you get the core functionality right, and worse, it’s nothing at all unless you /publish something/.

Keep in in an archive area. In other words, put this minor issue to the side and move on with more important development issues so that we can have ResEx back again.

I have never been that interested in those kinds of shots. Delete it forever? No, it will be useful some years from now to someone. But move to the new site? Absolutely not. (In my humble opinion)

I vote for keeping them in some kind of archives. It doesn’t have to be fancy or well-integrated with the site as such, but as my dad noted once, pictures are often best if they convey the feeling of nostalgia
SpaceCat85
August 19th, 2008 @ 3:06 pm
I vote for: get that section set up & functional so that people can add new snapshots after the site re-opens, then gradually add in the old stuff after the heavy-lifting on the rest of the site is done
Good gawd… forget the freakin’ old stuff already. It almost appears as though the owners are looking for approval from us to delay things further by dangling old content in front of us.
.
Forget the content. Let US worry about filling the site with content. JUST GET THE FREAKIN’ SITE UP AND RUNNING ALREADY!
.
I’m not sure if Brian Wilson is still involved with Unsanity, so maybe that’s why we’ve not seen any progress with ResEx. I would think if Phil Ryu WAS involved, he has long since moved on in favor of actually making money with MacHeist. MyDreamApp imploded because there was really no money involved, so I suspect this site is the same.
.
Whatever the case, some sign of actual ownership of this site would be nice (like changing the graphics, or God forbid actually getting a live site up and running). But until then, I refuse to believe anything at all is happening with ResEx.
i’m with most on here… just get it up and running, the content will come in and then you have all the time you want to sift through and ask about the old stuff.
and how about this, that instead of some strangely informal post thing you post something about, oh i don’t know, who the heck you are, what the heck is happening, you know fill us the heck in on something! if you want ideas you know there are about 4000 posts with suggestions in them already. i can’t see how anything you might ask now hasn’t already been answered or suggested.
you know after having stuck around this long, i thought i had moved past any anger or frustration issues and then along comes these rather asinine posts that accomplish nothing at all but create a rumblings of wonder if someone has just hacked the site and is screwing around with it…and low and behold, that old frustration rises again.
i was once in a punk band called SL*TF*CK and we managed ourselves better than this…
I vote for: Putting an end to this BS. I agree with Decline.

Good God people, get a hold of yourselves. This is just a web site. Anger, frustration? If you let an issue with a once great website get to you like this, time to turn off that computer and go outside! Take a walk, go ride your bike, go buy some fruits and veggies at the local market, plant a tree, visit a museum, hug your loved ones, bake a cake, whatever…
Of course the whole situation with the site is next to ridiculous, but please don’t throw yourself in front of an oncoming train or off a bridge, there is life after Resexcellence. Step back from the computer and go outside live life for real, mmmkay?

Start it from scratch. If you need any of the old content, you should have it as an archive so anyone can just see the old site as it was. If things become very popular it won’t be hard to transfer it to the new system, whatever that may be…
BuriedCaesar

gallagb – I’ll believe that “things” are “happening” and that there are actual “signs of life” around here when we can see something substantive, rather than more threads.

So far it’s all just been talk. Bluster. Blathering. Idle Chatter. Unverifiable promises. I’m still skeptical that this isn’t some huge chain-yanking by some clever someone who’s figured out how to post new threads.

TO WHOMEVER IS POSTING THESE BLOG “UPDATES”:
HERE’S AN IDEA- instead of saying moronic things such as “see if anyone notices it.” OR “should we keep this old stuff” (we don’t run this site, btw, stop asking us for advice!) INSTEAD, HOW ABOUT YOU SHOW US A screenshot of anything — a page of the new ResEx, the code or whatever, some of the old files, anything! BECAUSE right now, I think maybe ONE PERSON might POSSIBLY believe you.
Or how about showing us a photo of someone actually WORKING on the site? An over-the-shoulder shot of coding? A ransom-style shot of an employee holding a dated newspaper up? lol It’s like getting a photo of Bigfoot.
yeah like doug says, an over the shoulder coding shot with someone holding a paper with the current date on it and come alone, no cops or internet watch groups, and you prove to us the site is ok, and if you harm one zero or one of its nontent…
Great. So much for anything getting done around here. The developer is now most likely dead due to some fubar’d attempt at getting a photo of him actually doing something.

i just dropped in after a couple of years to see if the site was up, and guess what? it’s still this pointless blog shit. even if you had just kept the forum open and killed the mainsite, resexcellence would be a really useful and productive place for modding the mac GUI.
whoever the f**k owns this place is clearly a tard, even the most slack, stoned, lazy mac lover would have done SOMETHING with this place in the last 3 years.
Who needs proof? We have the occasional innocuous blog entry! That should be enough for anyone.

Are you sure that this is ‘current’?

Something anything to let us know that I’m not right about it being some scriptkiddie with the wordpress passwords

Was a good site, btw, but now it seems that resex became a kind of chat/blog/forum….
Having read a little bit through the postings/comments, I’m wondering, if something is really going on here.
OR: is the whole stuff here just a fake, getting people trapped to believe something should happen….? Maybe, all this BuriedCaesars, Dougs, Tomhammacs, Avis and other names publishing comments here are just as unreal as is the site progress, being the one and same person…?

I don’t know…. I realize that a lot of the old content may never get used. I realize them that the need for all the OS 9 stuff would be wasteful time and effort. But still, I would hate to see that there was no bridge, historically or emotionally, from the old to the new. It is important to remember that a lot of us learned a lot from the old site. It taught us how to tweek our Mac’s. It made us want to learn more sometimes then was on ResEx, and that as a learning tool, it was invaluable. In the 90′s we, the Mac Community, were still the pirates, the thumb-our-noses (and often worse) at anything and everything Windoze.
SO I guess my answer is to keep whatever you think has archival worth, but do not feel like everything from the old has to be powered up for the new site. We may not be the pirates anymore, but with each new OS X there will be a learning curve. And as it was in the past, RESEXCELLENCE can be, and will be the guiding light.
Good work to you all. We are anxiously awaiting the rebirth of a legend.

Nice to see a little life here again. I really miss this site. This entire project has taken too long, though. I used this site a great deal and loved coming here, contributing, and testing out new ideas and such from here.
Please get something up and running for us. I’m certain I speak for everyone!
I hate to say it but time has marched on. Resexcellence at one time could have kept up with it but years seperate it from it was and what is now.
I personally suggest giving up working on it and let it die a quiet and honorable death. Don’t try to bring it back to just have it die later from low traffic and a general lack of interest.
I believe that anyone that would have contributed anything useful to it has long left for greener, more active, pastures.

Just get the new site up and running and then add the old content in afterwards. Like mentioned earlier, just make an archive section (at some point) and put the stuff there. I can understand that you guys want to build the underlying structure for the site completely before launching into the world, but we have all been patiently waiting for our mac gui fix. Please come back as soon as possible. Thanks!
I want to see my favourite mac/wallpapers/icons website !

Res-Ex is dead. Unsanity’s programmers are supposedly working on it, but Unsanity still has not been able to update their own software to be compatible with Leopard. I have not come across any other software company that has not been able to update their programs, and now they also are the only ones that can not just put up a web site. It’s not that difficult people!! If you are having trouble why don’t you go down to the local grade school and hire a ten year old to do it. Please, just get the job jobbed already!!!
Maybe a few snapshots of theming at each OS release. That is all. I mean, some people might not know what kaliedoscope did. So, three or four snapshots might get that point across. That is all. It is not necessary to have 300 images.
this place is dead, ive seen cemeteries with more life.

Well, “our own resex site” was, at one point, “MichaelsMac.com”

Now, “MY own resex site” is a combination of a couple sites that offer desktops and icons.
You know… I think Im a moron because I come here almost every day, but nothing changes. I keep waiting for the day when I get to be the first to see this new page show itself.
…its one big pile of horse $&%# if you ask me. You guys need to get your $%&# together and put a page together.. Im sick of waiting on your mother &%$#’in &$$

I still don’t entirely understand why this entire site had to be shut down just so it could be “redesigned”.
I’ve seen countless websites go through redesigns without closing shop for even a day… and many sites I’ve seen go through multiple redesigns since resex closed, some that are even run by a single person!
To believe you, I think I need to see something only the owner of this site / the actual administrators of this site can do: something! Turn your blog into a forum, delete this entire site, add a file, change the blog theme. Anything to know. Although… hackers can get anywhere. I would contact by email to see, but the whois database has their information blocked. Oh well. This site is dead anyways. Like the messiah. Might come back in my lifetime, might not.

As much as I hate to say this, since I was a big fan of ResEx back “in the day”, I don’t see much point to keeping the old screenshots as part of the main site. Maybe you want to stick them in an archive (or heck, post ‘em to Flickr?) but don’t worry too much about keeping them as part of the primary site.

right now we are about 80 percent finished with our decision phase regarding the older snapshots section. we are leaning towards keeping no more then 100 snapshots per os release. we feel this is a good compromise. again, it will take a few months to go through all those old photos and pick the best ones, so hang in there!
another potential stumbling block is the decision on what fonts to use on the new resex, some of us like serif fonts, others sans.

It is. It’s two years with this stupid black blog page. They could have installed a forum, or even upload all the old HTML files. They’re still around; _someone_ has them!
But no, we get this stupid WordPress s****. And ResEx been stupid WordPress s**** since summer 2006 or so.
we finally have finished writing the html to the index page. we will be working on some really cool flash animations to be used in the menus. we expect these to be done by july of next year. also, in the coming months a few of us will go off and create a “team” to decide on color combos for the new site.
The only turkeys are the ones who keeping reading here! Turkey day’s gone and so has resexcellence – get with the program!

I used to be contributor of a few things on the old resexcellence. It’s been now two years. Either get something up and running or sell the domain to someone willing to do something useful with it.

This site ranks right up there with applerecon.com. Checking to see if any content is up every few months reminds me of how people keep watching SNL every so often because they remember what it was like 30 years ago (and hasn’t been anything but garbage for the last what, 25 years?). Hope springs eternal, I guess.
Our big hole is broken!!! Someone fix it! I would, but I don’t even know what happened.

I come here every few months – it’s just asexciting every time. Do you guys really think this place has the potential to reemerge as the best mac modding resources site? If you honestly do, that must mean that you guys have hidden away all the best resources from the rest of us, stubbornly refusing to release them to the rest of the mac universe through any other site than this, that died literally years ago.
If that is not the case, i.e. you are not just plain lazy complainers, release your stuff through other sites and start your own website linking to all the best resources. Because that is really what ResEx did. Few things, if any, were released exclusively there. What ResEx did was to provide easy access to what one would have to visit a hundred sites to find without its service.
So stop complaining and start being constructive and productive instead. If you put as much energy into making a good website with links to the best resources as you’ve without results put into whining about this site’s former glory and present all but inexistence, you’ll have a site up and running within two months. Which is probably less time than will pass before the next post on this site will be up.
Leave this site to die and make a better one yourselves.
Now I’ve filled my visiting quota on this site for the next couple of months. I sincerely hope you’ve found something better to do with your spare time than hanging around here when I stop by next time.

Thats funny, I come here for the fun of the nontent (although I do remember what Resex was). Resexcellence.com is now and until the end of its time, the official home of nontent. To me, Resex has become enjoyable avenue of comical relief.
The Digging has made great progress into the ever deepening realm of nontent and will continue until the hostmonster dictates otherwise. The enlighten Resexcellence has passed and been long ago buried. Long Live the New world Nontent!

It’s amazing how astronomically boneheaded Symeon is. The fact that he *claims* to have read the posts and *still* thinks we’re here complaining and hoping for the site to be resurrected just goes to show how mind-numbingly uninformed he is.
No one… I repeat, *no one* here has any faith, hope or belief that this site is “coming back.” No one here is a *whiner* or *complainer.* That ship has sailed years ago.
Additionally, No one… I repeat, *no one* here has decided NOT to move on to other Mac GUI sites and/or MAKE their own Mac GUI sites. We’ve all gone on to bigger and better things years ago.
The only reason why any of the repeat visitors/posters (Notice I said REPEAT, not NEW) are here is for pure amusement only: We enjoy coming here and seeing just how long these forums can go, and revel in the folly of this site’s existence as an empty shell and monument to the previous owner’s failure. Think of it as an amusing social anomaly.
(As a funny side note, he said, “If you put as much energy into making a good website with links to the best resources as you’ve without results put into whining about this site’s former glory and present all but inexistence, you’ll have a site up and running within two months.”
I spend an average of 15 seconds every 2-3 days coming here and saying hi to people. If that’s all it takes to make a site, well, cheers for Web 2.0!)
So, to recap: The people who come back here and post are not here to whine, complain, hope, or look forward to a new ResEx. We are here for fun, and it takes no effort to do so. Please don’t come in here on your high horse and try to shine some divine light on us about how we should’ve all “moved on.” It just makes you sound elitist, insulting, uninformed, and–quite frankly, like a former developer of this site.

Um what happened?
December 26th, 2008 @ 12:36 am
What happened to this site? I need a copy of Macboot and it’s no where to be found.
Dude, I used to love ReEx… I remember when it first faded to black and I was stunned that a site seemed so alive could vaporize. I left the link in my homepage and visited a dozen times until I heard that the dork responsible for the remodeling decided to throw in the towel over some negative feedback. Then I visted today out of curiousity and you guys had me rolling. This nontent is crazy, this site is a black-hole!!! hahaha Keep up the digging.
I was once led to believe that this site might actually rise again as a major force in themy-stuff, but now I see it has evolved into to something new. Something little, yellow, different and better. And I am pleased.
No themey-stuff, but there sure as hell is some fabulous user-generated content here.
Holy cats I missed Nontent Day!!! January 8th! The second anniversary of Nontent!
.
Actually, I guess missing Nontent Day is kind of a redundant when you think about it! lol
.
HAPPY NONTENT DAY EVERYONE!!! CHEERS!!! ONWARD AND DOWNWARD!!!
I bet it was some Windows jerks who bought ResEx, just so us Mac users lose the best Mac custom site ever. Now we’re left with a handful of semi-decent sites.
I don’t even buy the conspiracy theory because it involves effort–and we all know that effort is instantly sucked into a void when anyone comes within 10 miles of this site.
This is taking… forever. This is taking… way longer than it should. Are you guys caught in a time warp or something, and to you, one month here is like a day? Get moving already! Regular news updates would be nice, as it gives us back our hope. ;D
Dumb thought: How’s about getting the site up first, AND THEN asking this? Yes, keep it, put in some sort of Archive/historical place along all the OS 9 stuff, all the other fun things they had on this place, etc.

Message for the admins,
Guys the archives of this site contained countless resources used by the historical mac community. I know that the modern trend is to discard the past or at least trivialize the value of it. The current Mac community has excepted many new members without the experience and joy of the deep levels of exploration and discovery provided by the resource editor and the hex editor.
However,
Speaking for my self and perhaps some in this community I would be willing to pay $100 for a copy of the archives that existed at the point that this site was taken over. No pressure to continue your efforts or to usurp the material, I just still have use for a lot of the content that was available only here. Please email me and I will gladly send you a TeraByte HDD to copy the archive onto.

Remember how this weblog was hacked, and then upgraded a few months ago? There is _someone_ out there, laughing at us.
OH SHIT. This is still up.
I HAVE SOME NEWS FOR THE THEMING COMMUNITY!!!
Uno developers, at Interacto.net said they were readying a theming solution with a beta coming out March ’10. It was posted on Macthemes forums, but as you know the mods over there are associated with Vaporware Façade and Architect, they deleted the post over the weekend. I can’t find anything on Twitter, MacNN forums, Macrumors etc. If somebody can find any info about this, please post here.
And keep an eye on interacto.net in the near future.
Hope we can get theming back!

This site is dead since more than 3 years now.
How UnSanity team could have lied to us so much?
It doesn’t take so much time to create a website which is mainly an archive now.
They just buyed Resexcellence to kill a competitor. And they dared to pretend to make it better.
For now I just see that the archive is unreachable for three years.
So bye bye liers !
I won’t come back.
and farewell ResExcellence. Rest in Peace.

There hasn’t been an update since 2008. At least put something back here, I don’t really care if it’s organized (organize it later!) There are historical files now lost because of a developer that has stopped doing his job
For a split second I was really excited that this site still existed……then I noticed two years of forum comments about it just hanging here….wonder if http://www.archive.org has the old site…

Wow… I hadn’t come here in years… what is the point of this “bookmark” in cyberspace?
Resexcellence was one of the best sites on the net back in Mike’s day… but just became a sad joke.
I used come here to read the “we are working on getting this site back to what it was” bullshit but now it is just silly…
Years have past since I was last here and NOTHING has changed… why don’t you guy(s) just pack it in and let someone else have this little slice of hard drive space and finally let resexcellence RIP…
I don’t want to sound like a smartass. It’s your site and you can do what you want with it and it’s none of anyones business. There are a lot of people who still remember and miss the old Resexcellence and it would be nice to know where this might be going.
Again the owners aren’t under any obligation. Is it money? Time? Money and time? If it’s money I’m certain if you get a figure and set up a way to donate many of us would do that.
I’m just a curious Macintosh user from way back and would like to see this site come back and thrive again.

Visiting this place is like visiting the grave of an old dear friend. *sigh*
Up until now, there have been 902 responses to “snapshots”:
No, why would they be worth anything? They are well over two years old.
that’s our thought at this point as well. much of the content is largely useless now, but we’re moving for historical preservation of the mac gui scene.
Definitely keep them. Just stick them in an Archive section. Historically they’re important.
Okay, time to move on from the old and give us something new – the Mac has moved on, it’s time for you to do the same, unless the intent is to have a site for the Retro-Mac crowd. Please, don’t over-think things. This site evolved into what it was over several years – just start simple again, and build. Asking about the old stuff will just confuse some and slow down the process of bringing this site back to life.
.
Given that, I’m still skeptical. Change the graphic at the top of this page. Tell us who’s on the “team”. Open the curtain. Then I’ll be more likely to believe that you’re earnestly trying to bring this site back.
Wait, let me make sure I understood: Finding a place to “put the old snapshots” is delaying/elongating this process?
.
Fair enough. I just wanted to make sure I got that right. On your way.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzz
Yup defiantly clear out the deadwood and start fresh.
Yes, of course they should stay. Every ResEx user who ever sent in a snapshot will love to look at their really old setup. Also, it is stuff like the snapshots that made ResEx different from other similar sites. The personal touch.
In fact, you should keep _all_ the old material, as ResExcellence is a huge piece of computer/OS history.
(And since when were the snapshots “useful”? Firstmost, they were fun!)
Shouldn’t your first priority be to bring up a great site that lets creative people share and showcase their work, and only /then/ worry about retrofitting the old stuff in there? Sure, it’s interesting for nostalgic reasons—especially to those of us who remember names like Arlo Rose—but the site is sure to be a monumental let-down unless you get the core functionality right, and worse, it’s nothing at all unless you /publish something/.
The bright light and sounds of these shallow potholes are still disconcerting as opposed to the dark and familiar silence of out great fissure that reaches nearly to the center of the earth.
Keep in in an archive area. In other words, put this minor issue to the side and move on with more important development issues so that we can have ResEx back again.
I have never been that interested in those kinds of shots. Delete it forever? No, it will be useful some years from now to someone. But move to the new site? Absolutely not. (In my humble opinion)
I vote for keeping them in some kind of archives. It doesn’t have to be fancy or well-integrated with the site as such, but as my dad noted once, pictures are often best if they convey the feeling of nostalgia
I vote for: get that section set up & functional so that people can add new snapshots after the site re-opens, then gradually add in the old stuff after the heavy-lifting on the rest of the site is done
Good gawd… forget the freakin’ old stuff already. It almost appears as though the owners are looking for approval from us to delay things further by dangling old content in front of us.
.
Forget the content. Let US worry about filling the site with content. JUST GET THE FREAKIN’ SITE UP AND RUNNING ALREADY!
.
I’m not sure if Brian Wilson is still involved with Unsanity, so maybe that’s why we’ve not seen any progress with ResEx. I would think if Phil Ryu WAS involved, he has long since moved on in favor of actually making money with MacHeist. MyDreamApp imploded because there was really no money involved, so I suspect this site is the same.
.
Whatever the case, some sign of actual ownership of this site would be nice (like changing the graphics, or God forbid actually getting a live site up and running). But until then, I refuse to believe anything at all is happening with ResEx.
i’m with most on here… just get it up and running, the content will come in and then you have all the time you want to sift through and ask about the old stuff.
and how about this, that instead of some strangely informal post thing you post something about, oh i don’t know, who the heck you are, what the heck is happening, you know fill us the heck in on something! if you want ideas you know there are about 4000 posts with suggestions in them already. i can’t see how anything you might ask now hasn’t already been answered or suggested.
you know after having stuck around this long, i thought i had moved past any anger or frustration issues and then along comes these rather asinine posts that accomplish nothing at all but create a rumblings of wonder if someone has just hacked the site and is screwing around with it…and low and behold, that old frustration rises again.
i was once in a punk band called SL*TF*CK and we managed ourselves better than this…
I vote for: Putting an end to this BS. I agree with Decline.
Good God people, get a hold of yourselves. This is just a web site. Anger, frustration? If you let an issue with a once great website get to you like this, time to turn off that computer and go outside! Take a walk, go ride your bike, go buy some fruits and veggies at the local market, plant a tree, visit a museum, hug your loved ones, bake a cake, whatever…
Of course the whole situation with the site is next to ridiculous, but please don’t throw yourself in front of an oncoming train or off a bridge, there is life after Resexcellence. Step back from the computer and go outside live life for real, mmmkay?
As I’ve said before, I’ll only believe something is really happening if there is some fundamental change to the layout or graphics (like opening up the curtain)…
Honestly. I think people have moved on. I was a RE regular since 98 and really now, its all about DeviantArt and MacThemes. Just concentrate on software improvements. Let ResEx go.
Just move them to an archive section… I’d love to see some actual life come to this site again. I really miss it.
I would rather have an empty up and running ResEx than a blog with comments… Make the site. Make forums. Get feedback. Change accordingly.
Indeed. Build the site. Just stay away from that wiki shit from 3 years ago. This time, try to make an effort. lol Wait, did I just say, “make an effort?” Yikes!
I haven’t checked this link in 6 months! And now, some sign of activity! Woot! May I agree with both sides in this debate … An historical archive (just port the shizzle over – those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat its mistakes …), and a fresh new start! Goodluck & Godspeed!
To be positive:
I’m looking forward to whatever you put up.
I’m also glad to see signs of life & to hear that things are happening!
Photos of old setups, as stated before, should be a lower priority item. However, thank you for asking your community for their input.
Start it from scratch. If you need any of the old content, you should have it as an archive so anyone can just see the old site as it was. If things become very popular it won’t be hard to transfer it to the new system, whatever that may be…
gallagb – I’ll believe that “things” are “happening” and that there are actual “signs of life” around here when we can see something substantive, rather than more threads.
.
So far it’s all just been talk. Bluster. Blathering. Idle Chatter. Unverifiable promises. I’m still skeptical that this isn’t some huge chain-yanking by some clever someone who’s figured out how to post new threads.
Yes, but for all we know, someone has figured out the password to wordpress. It could be some little punk ass scriptkiddie just messing with our hearts.
TO WHOMEVER IS POSTING THESE BLOG “UPDATES”:
HERE’S AN IDEA- instead of saying moronic things such as “see if anyone notices it.” OR “should we keep this old stuff” (we don’t run this site, btw, stop asking us for advice!) INSTEAD, HOW ABOUT YOU SHOW US A screenshot of anything — a page of the new ResEx, the code or whatever, some of the old files, anything! BECAUSE right now, I think maybe ONE PERSON might POSSIBLY believe you.
urp!
splat !

Or how about showing us a photo of someone actually WORKING on the site? An over-the-shoulder shot of coding? A ransom-style shot of an employee holding a dated newspaper up? lol It’s like getting a photo of Bigfoot.
yeah like doug says, an over the shoulder coding shot with someone holding a paper with the current date on it and come alone, no cops or internet watch groups, and you prove to us the site is ok, and if you harm one zero or one of its nontent…
O.O
lol @ decline… “I said NO COPS!”
Great. So much for anything getting done around here. The developer is now most likely dead due to some fubar’d attempt at getting a photo of him actually doing something.
No way, he probably stayed up all last night to completely start over in PHP writing a new camera OS software.
i just dropped in after a couple of years to see if the site was up, and guess what? it’s still this pointless blog shit. even if you had just kept the forum open and killed the mainsite, resexcellence would be a really useful and productive place for modding the mac GUI.
whoever the f**k owns this place is clearly a tard, even the most slack, stoned, lazy mac lover would have done SOMETHING with this place in the last 3 years.
So where is the actual proof that something is happening here?
Who needs proof? We have the occasional innocuous blog entry! That should be enough for anyone.
What would be cool is to get the forum operating. Compiling and organising archives should be an ongoing transparent operation. Forget about that stuff for now, and get resex current.
Current? It IS current. Just not with current stuff.
Are you sure that this is ‘current’? I mean maybe current affairs and what someone had for breakfast is good enough for you, but I’m going to have to agree with Doug, in that, a little bit of code, or a snapshot of the layout. Something anything to let us know that I’m not right about it being some scriptkiddie with the wordpress passwords
@korm: I think Caesar was being sarcastic
Trust me, I think we’d all like something tangible–but bitterness has made us all very wry and whittled away our hope. lol
Just came across that site I used to consult a few years ago, before it vanished.
Was a good site, btw, but now it seems that resex became a kind of chat/blog/forum….
Having read a little bit through the postings/comments, I’m wondering, if something is really going on here.
OR: is the whole stuff here just a fake, getting people trapped to believe something should happen….? Maybe, all this BuriedCaesars, Dougs, Tomhammacs, Avis and other names publishing comments here are just as unreal as is the site progress, being the one and same person…?
Spot-on, Doug. Thanks. And I actually prefer rye.
I don’t know…. I realize that a lot of the old content may never get used. I realize them that the need for all the OS 9 stuff would be wasteful time and effort. But still, I would hate to see that there was no bridge, historically or emotionally, from the old to the new. It is important to remember that a lot of us learned a lot from the old site. It taught us how to tweek our Mac’s. It made us want to learn more sometimes then was on ResEx, and that as a learning tool, it was invaluable. In the 90′s we, the Mac Community, were still the pirates, the thumb-our-noses (and often worse) at anything and everything Windoze.
SO I guess my answer is to keep whatever you think has archival worth, but do not feel like everything from the old has to be powered up for the new site. We may not be the pirates anymore, but with each new OS X there will be a learning curve. And as it was in the past, RESEXCELLENCE can be, and will be the guiding light.
Good work to you all. We are anxiously awaiting the rebirth of a legend.

anyone know what happened to Michael’s Mac?? http://www.michaelsmac.com/ Hasn’t been updated since June 3rd!!
Oh dear god… nontent has spread to MichaelsMac!

It can’t be stopped… it’ll find you! That’s what it does! That’s *ALL* it does!
I think that Michael is having too much of a good time watching us here, and he’s fallen out of his chair and hit his head on the keyboard.
You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile.
Wow. I admit, I gave up on ResEx, due to the last post I was here for was over 2,000 comments. It’s good to see more blog entries, but where is the actual content? Icons, desktop pictures, etc. Enough with the blog posts and give us our ResEx back, please.
Ahh, it beings me back to simpler times… when “hope” actually applied.
Waited too long…. I am removing you from my bookmarks…
@Zeebe : and IconFactory hasn’t been updated sine June 03…. the nontent disease is sspreading…. it’s even reached my own website… there is NO HOPE.
Definitely keep the old content in an “archives” section, please. If you won’t keep an archives section for the old stuff I’d gladly mirror the old ResEx and I’m sure there are other people who would do so as well if you were to put out the word.
all your base belong to us.

Oooohhh 50th post in the shallow hole. Neat!
all your base, all your base!!! yeah, that bomb was the transition of this site to the new ::ahem:: owners
I’m sure this will be the last update for another year and a half.
Nice to see a little life here again. I really miss this site. This entire project has taken too long, though. I used this site a great deal and loved coming here, contributing, and testing out new ideas and such from here.
Please get something up and running for us. I’m certain I speak for everyone!
Thanks.

I hate to say it but time has marched on. Resexcellence at one time could have kept up with it but years seperate it from it was and what is now.
I personally suggest giving up working on it and let it die a quiet and honorable death. Don’t try to bring it back to just have it die later from low traffic and a general lack of interest.
I believe that anyone that would have contributed anything useful to it has long left for greener, more active, pastures.
Just get the new site up and running and then add the old content in afterwards. Like mentioned earlier, just make an archive section (at some point) and put the stuff there. I can understand that you guys want to build the underlying structure for the site completely before launching into the world, but we have all been patiently waiting for our mac gui fix. Please come back as soon as possible. Thanks!
Hi !
I want to see my favourite mac/wallpapers/icons website !
Good luck.
Sincerely, a french fan.
Actually, I say drop the whole thing. Send the historically useful stuff to Internet Archive and move on.
The delay has been too long; you killed it. The Mac community has moved on. You’ve lost whatever momentum there was. Interest has pretty much waned, as has the level of goodwill.
Looks like it’s getting close to time for another new thread along the lines of “we’re doing something, really” without really having anything to show for it…
So, how ’bout it, Admin? Want to prove to us that you’re actually doing something to this site? Then all you have to do is OPEN THAT CURTAIN! Seems pretty simple, really.
The admin hasn’t checked this site recently, has (s)he?
So, I’ve been checking this site every six months or so for the past several years. Is it finally coming back up? Or is the small signs of life for the past couple months just a teaser for nothing?
SpyMac used to be a great site, too. Now it’s useless. So many admins with so little clue. Even left alone, some sites would have been better than they’ve “improved” to be. It’s sad.
I think the appropriate pronoun here would be ‘it’.
ADMIN humor
I laughed until I puked
for shit’s sake, man. why would you take down the site in the first place to redo it? why didnt you leave it up while you work on the new site?
4-5 days without a post here? For shame.
no, its a sure sign that this place is gone to hell in a hand basket.

Some of mine are there from 2005, i’d rather not see them again! Seriously its supposed to be, (and i quote) “The NEW ResExcellence”, so lets make everything…”NEW”
Res-Ex is dead. Unsanity’s programmers are supposedly working on it, but Unsanity still has not been able to update their own software to be compatible with Leopard. I have not come across any other software company that has not been able to update their programs, and now they also are the only ones that can not just put up a web site. It’s not that difficult people!! If you are having trouble why don’t you go down to the local grade school and hire a ten year old to do it. Please, just get the job jobbed already!!!
I don’t think there is a new site. I think it’s all a hoax.
5 days, no posts… thats no way to dig. lol
Maybe a few snapshots of theming at each OS release. That is all. I mean, some people might not know what kaliedoscope did. So, three or four snapshots might get that point across. That is all. It is not necessary to have 300 images.
Is this site related to Apple Recon?
Is this a red herring?
this place is dead, ive seen cemeteries with more life.
I’d like to see more of these “ResEx Team” comments. I wouldn’t feel like I’m talking to myself. Old snapshots ? Whatever man. Façade is nearly ready so get your things in order for the launch. And don’t come with another theming solution please, everybody is on the Façade bandwagon so please just get in it. Do you guys realize the suffering you’ve caused ? I suffered.
Wait, did someone just actually respond to the “snapshots” post as if it was actually HAPPENING? lol
.
I think there should be a series of ‘snapshots’ of the ResEx staff working on the site… you know, holding newspapers with the date, etc.
” “
60+
All •8•’s
The kid got tired of posting “real fake” ResEx blog updates.
resexcellence.net
and resexcellence.org
haven’t been taken yet. One of you guys could buy it and start your own ResEx site.
Well, “our own resex site” was, at one point, “MichaelsMac.com”
.
Now, “MY own resex site” is a combination of a couple sites that offer desktops and icons.
There’s also http://macgui.com
You know… I think Im a moron because I come here almost every day, but nothing changes. I keep waiting for the day when I get to be the first to see this new page show itself.
…its one big pile of horse $&%# if you ask me. You guys need to get your $%&# together and put a page together.. Im sick of waiting on your mother &%$#’in &$$
The “kid” being you…?
Oh snap!
Hasn’t somebody stuck a fork in this place yet?
is resexcellence ever coming back?. or is this a place that gives people false hope?
I still don’t entirely understand why this entire site had to be shut down just so it could be “redesigned”.
I’ve seen countless websites go through redesigns without closing shop for even a day… and many sites I’ve seen go through multiple redesigns since resex closed, some that are even run by a single person!
Nope.
oh, reverse snap!
To believe you, I think I need to see something only the owner of this site / the actual administrators of this site can do: something! Turn your blog into a forum, delete this entire site, add a file, change the blog theme. Anything to know. Although… hackers can get anywhere. I would contact by email to see, but the whois database has their information blocked. Oh well. This site is dead anyways. Like the messiah. Might come back in my lifetime, might not.
Yeah, whoever believes they are bringing ResEx back, I have a bridge I want to sell you.
Well I’m not the owner, and I’m not the one posting these blog “updates”. :-/
Huh. You’d think that someone who is “only” an admin would have the contact information of the owner. Guess not.
this place is dead….live with it….
this site was awsome but WTF…they’ve been working on it for years now……com’on people….it’s not rocket science…!!
i hate this newer hole
As much as I hate to say this, since I was a big fan of ResEx back “in the day”, I don’t see much point to keeping the old screenshots as part of the main site. Maybe you want to stick them in an archive (or heck, post ‘em to Flickr?) but don’t worry too much about keeping them as part of the primary site.
And for the love of God, would you put a more user-friendly colour scheme up here? This white-on-black stuff is killing my eyes.
Give us an even newer hole to dig.
I’m not an admin. See up above how the 2nd comment has a box around it? If I were an admin, then my posts would have that box.
I’m just entering the name as admin, and you have to enter the right email, but it’s pretty obvious…. give it a try if you want.
I thought this whole “we can fake post as an admin” thing was explored eons ago… I feel like I’m in a time machine watching the early days of nontent. *sigh*
hi there
I’m just curious.
Ah, moderated comments. Good move.
That guy, up there– he’s the impostor…. allegedly….
Notice how that one just above me has no linked name, but the one way up at the top of the page does have his name linked to resexellence.com. Plus he never uses capitals. Poser!!!
test
Dump ‘em. It wasn’t an interesting section to begin with.
Anyone who posts blog “updates” here and/or has a colored box around his post is a stupid n00b.
(Thank you for that sweeping generalization…)
right now we are about 80 percent finished with our decision phase regarding the older snapshots section. we are leaning towards keeping no more then 100 snapshots per os release. we feel this is a good compromise. again, it will take a few months to go through all those old photos and pick the best ones, so hang in there!
another potential stumbling block is the decision on what fonts to use on the new resex, some of us like serif fonts, others sans.
Is this site ever going to go back online. Poor ResEx nothing became of thee.

Notice how he saw my comment about forgetting to link his name, and so now he has done that. haha
hey guys, it’s almost the 1 year anniversary since the last real blog update here, the one about the new engine. (aka, the world’s deepest digging hole)
And November 1st, 2008 will be the 2-year anniversary of the very first blog post here! Yay! It’s party-time! 2 years!!!
Go ResEx Team!!!!
Happy un-nontent day!

I don’t know about that last post, felt like I should say something, but really had nothing to say. My previous post is the result of the lack there of. Of course now I have something to say in that I am explaining my lack of anything to say and the random non-tent it produced. SoooooOOOoo… Yea…. um… BOOT TO THE HEAD!!!

There’s nothing more riveting than psuedo-admin one-upsmanship!

Reminder: January 8 is National Nontent Day (January 8th, 2007 was the day “new engine” was posted by the actual site owners, and then the site was ultimately left for dead).
.
It’s only a little over 2 short months until the second annual nontent day! Hard to believe!
There’s so much to celebrate around here.
There is so much to celebrate around here.
Yeah…. Like rogue admins. Joy. You brighten our days with false hope and empty promises. =P
Hey! I’m not the one giving false hope, it’s that ‘ResEx team’ bimbo up there! I’m just a former visitor who happens to participate in digging.

My bad. Rogue ResEx Team. ^_-
Thanks for the help with the hopeless digging though.
And so it begins…
This site was great.. Can’t find anything good on the net,
old content but was great. wish I could skin my itunes again without hassle hah.
Look at this: http://freegroups.net/macos.shtml
Look at how excited they are. What a shame.
Ahh, that’s the wrong URL. But still a good site to visit for Mac downloads. Ok, here’s the one I meant to post: http://www.macshadows.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=7079
I think this site needs more admins! More, I say–MORE!
interfacelift.com PWNS YOU ALL!!!!!
On that site I posted (the forum, not the download site):
c0ld_phuz10n remarks: “Good stuff, I have been a fan of both of those groups work since I started using the Mac. ”
halprin adds: “Ah sweet! I was wondering what happened to the website! ”
Nilkimas contributes: “Great, I loved the site. I hope the new one will become as interesting as the old site. “
ha!
False hope. Gotta love it.
Someone has hope?
Hope? That’s a forbidden word. Speak not of it in this hallowed place!
Wow. Something new.
hahaha.
Man… this is a joke right?
Even if ResEx returns now, it won’t matter.

It seems odd to me that people suspect the updates are “fake.” Even if true, I really do not understand what the motive would be.
Mister Green in the house!!!
See? Even the fake admins have empty promises! (I am referring to the post from Oct 19th from the “ResEx Team” … new updates on the way, stay tuned! )
yeah, right.
c’mon guys, we need posts here every day!
Read my blog post parody at the bottom here: http://resexcellence.com/?p=8
Feel free to write your own. They can be quite funny!
Doing my part to keep the nontent fresh and tasty!
This is so stupid, Its hard to believe so many people are still here rambling about how this is site is dead.
They’re lying about what they believe, but they are also in denial.
Heck, I’ve mostly forgot what ResEx was. I just come hear now for the comedy of what it has become.
Long live the Nontent!!
That’s the admin clone right below Doug’s post. Mine is the one about the blog parody. …. Just so you don’t get us confused or anything.
OMG!!!! :0 November 1st was the TWO-YEAR anniversary of the start of this blog! Hooray, 2 years of EMPTY, USELESS promises about how “great” the “new” ResEx will “be.”
Who cares, what ever is faster (for you to do), just put something up.
anything up
soon
like now
whatever you have
just chuck it up
i don’t care if it’s buggy
i don’t care if it looks like it came out of the wrong end of a very sick… homeless?… chipmunk?
anything as long as it not just this forum
please
You’re not talking to me, are you? I’m not an admin here, I just post with the username.
Anybody got any good PPATs?
Actually, January 8th is the 2-year Nontent anniversary. January 8th is the last REAL post made by the last legitimate site owners. It’s the last known development reported to the users of this site before two full years of nothingness. We like to call it “Nontent Day” in the PIT (the thread with the 3000 posts), because it was the beginning of the end!
This is such a stupid web site. Too bad the domain expires in 2013 or whenever it is.
stupid it might be but it’s also somehow compelling… I keep coming back but don’t know why.

It is. It’s two years with this stupid black blog page. They could have installed a forum, or even upload all the old HTML files. They’re still around; _someone_ has them!
But no, we get this stupid WordPress s****. And ResEx been stupid WordPress s**** since summer 2006 or so.
It seems to have been eaten by hostmoster!
GRRR I mean hostmonster.
I honestly think that Unsanity and ResEx are into something big.
Let’s give some more time, we will see.
good news!
we finally have finished writing the html to the index page. we will be working on some really cool flash animations to be used in the menus. we expect these to be done by july of next year. also, in the coming months a few of us will go off and create a “team” to decide on color combos for the new site.
sit tight, the new site will be up soon
So there is still someone really paying for this pages…
Hostzilla?
No posts for 2 days?! THIS really is non-tent!
Fucking despicable.
Happy Turkey Day!
In the spirit of remembrance, here is an xmas themed mac wallpaper.

Rest in Peace our long lost friend.
Resex, not Christ.
The only turkeys are the ones who keeping reading here! Turkey day’s gone and so has resexcellence – get with the program!
I used to be contributor of a few things on the old resexcellence. It’s been now two years. Either get something up and running or sell the domain to someone willing to do something useful with it.
Come on people. All I want for my birthday is a little more nontent… psych… Maybe some color in these parts, its a little dark and damp down here.
What a desolation…infrequent replies…
…
crickets
…
It takes too long to climb out of the big hole and get down in to this one, and then back again. lol
OW! I just fell, I think I broke my leg. Sorry for landing on you Doug
Ow!
Chinese Democracy came out and the new Res Excellence still under development ? The team that doing it is the same team that doing the Duke Nuken Zero Hour ???
C’mon put a new site, with new contents and afeter that move the old contents, why not ? look this site stay out for 2 years and the people still visit here to try to ger GUI contents,
Anyone knows where a find a reaaly good screensavers for mac ?
we’re doing the best we can, most of the team have switched to either Linux or Windows in the past 2 years and we are still working on vistaexcellence.com and also linuxexcellence.com we’ll get back to resex in late 2009/early 2010
but the good news is that we have finally decided on a pretty good color scheme for the page
alot of work this internet stuff
this domain is for sale too….

Did you ever fart so hard you ended up in another zip code?

LOL… reading *with* comprehension? Huzzah!
Any day now… a new post will be added… how could you doubt that?
Phat Skinny
This site ranks right up there with applerecon.com. Checking to see if any content is up every few months reminds me of how people keep watching SNL every so often because they remember what it was like 30 years ago (and hasn’t been anything but garbage for the last what, 25 years?). Hope springs eternal, I guess.
f i broke the big hole
Our big hole is broken!!! Someone fix it! I would, but I don’t even know what happened.
.
(looks around nervously)
I come here every few months – it’s just asexciting every time. Do you guys really think this place has the potential to reemerge as the best mac modding resources site? If you honestly do, that must mean that you guys have hidden away all the best resources from the rest of us, stubbornly refusing to release them to the rest of the mac universe through any other site than this, that died literally years ago.
If that is not the case, i.e. you are not just plain lazy complainers, release your stuff through other sites and start your own website linking to all the best resources. Because that is really what ResEx did. Few things, if any, were released exclusively there. What ResEx did was to provide easy access to what one would have to visit a hundred sites to find without its service.
So stop complaining and start being constructive and productive instead. If you put as much energy into making a good website with links to the best resources as you’ve without results put into whining about this site’s former glory and present all but inexistence, you’ll have a site up and running within two months. Which is probably less time than will pass before the next post on this site will be up.
Leave this site to die and make a better one yourselves.
Now I’ve filled my visiting quota on this site for the next couple of months. I sincerely hope you’ve found something better to do with your spare time than hanging around here when I stop by next time.
By the way – If you don’t have a small screen, one can still see, *without scrolling*, a post from now OVER a year ago on the front page. If that doesn’t tell you the site is dead, not even a complete loss of all information on the internet will.
@ Jack Overfull
“So there is still someone really paying for this pages…
Hostzilla?”
Yes nd apparenlty they are doing the right thing too by looking at how many people come here just to post…..
Error: please type a comment.
@ Symeon
The Digging has made great progress into the ever deepening realm of nontent and will continue until the hostmonster dictates otherwise. The enlighten Resexcellence has passed and been long ago buried. Long Live the New world Nontent!
It’s amazing how astronomically boneheaded Symeon is. The fact that he *claims* to have read the posts and *still* thinks we’re here complaining and hoping for the site to be resurrected just goes to show how mind-numbingly uninformed he is.
No one… I repeat, *no one* here has any faith, hope or belief that this site is “coming back.” No one here is a *whiner* or *complainer.* That ship has sailed years ago.
Additionally, No one… I repeat, *no one* here has decided NOT to move on to other Mac GUI sites and/or MAKE their own Mac GUI sites. We’ve all gone on to bigger and better things years ago.
The only reason why any of the repeat visitors/posters (Notice I said REPEAT, not NEW) are here is for pure amusement only: We enjoy coming here and seeing just how long these forums can go, and revel in the folly of this site’s existence as an empty shell and monument to the previous owner’s failure. Think of it as an amusing social anomaly.
(As a funny side note, he said, “If you put as much energy into making a good website with links to the best resources as you’ve without results put into whining about this site’s former glory and present all but inexistence, you’ll have a site up and running within two months.”
I spend an average of 15 seconds every 2-3 days coming here and saying hi to people. If that’s all it takes to make a site, well, cheers for Web 2.0!)
So, to recap: The people who come back here and post are not here to whine, complain, hope, or look forward to a new ResEx. We are here for fun, and it takes no effort to do so. Please don’t come in here on your high horse and try to shine some divine light on us about how we should’ve all “moved on.” It just makes you sound elitist, insulting, uninformed, and–quite frankly, like a former developer of this site.
And no, I didn’t add the strikethroughs. That’s this site’s bizarro wordpress wackiness.
@Symeon Did you stop reading the comments posted after 2006?
We basically gave up hope after 2007.
whomever did this strike-through glitch is a genius; it appears to be a bug in WordPress itself.
Weber! I caught you, you tricky bastard! I examined the html source.
Ok, i think I fixed it!
yep. Definitely a bug. WordPress doesn’t always check for a closing tag.
Ok, let’s make all text underline instead!
test23123
It didn’t work. Let’s make all text bold instead.
testin’ again.
haha. It worked.
Somewhere, Rod Serling is smiling.
Or puking. It’s hard to tell.
OOPS /?p=8# help
And Symeon – next time you visit, bring some cheese. I like cheese with whine.
OOPS /?p=8# help

Stop messing around. it’s immature, son.

hey, come on guys–shouldn’t we be using our few seconds here to create our own, new websites? Sheesh! lol
Why, Doug, can’t you tell? We ARE creating. Okay, the site may not be “new” but every additional (i.e. “new”) post on this website makes the site new – every time! There. Problem solved.
@admin finally someone had a look
Fun Fun!
– @admin — finally someone had a look
Strike!
Strike 2!
Just wanted to repost Doug’s comment without the lines. I feel much the same…

Doug nailed it. And said it very well, too. With complete sentences to boot. It’s even understandable and coherent and logical and IN YOUR FACE correct. Thank you, Doug.
Thanks
lol… I know it might ignite flame wars, but I figured it deserved a response.
.
PS: I really wonder if that person was a former dev.
Well, if that’s the case, he should be making his own website and then promoting it ad nauseum and exhorting us to come visit, not berating us for making this site the most unique experience anywhere in cyberspace.
WHEN DOES THIS SITE ACTUALLY OPEN??? I REALLY MISS DOWNLOADING STUFF FROM HERE ):
Wow, people still posting here…?
Merry Christmas to all
Only two weeks left ’till Nontent Day!
Merry Christmas!!!
Does anybody know when Apple will release the Lisa Office System update? I’m still using 3.1, are they going to come out with a Version 4?
Anybody?
What happened to this site? I need a copy of Macboot and it’s no where to be found.
a belated merry christmas folks, and nice one Doug, I loved your post
Where the hell is ResExcellence?
Dude, I used to love ReEx… I remember when it first faded to black and I was stunned that a site seemed so alive could vaporize. I left the link in my homepage and visited a dozen times until I heard that the dork responsible for the remodeling decided to throw in the towel over some negative feedback. Then I visted today out of curiousity and you guys had me rolling. This nontent is crazy, this site is a black-hole!!! hahaha Keep up the digging.
This is all so much BS. No site is coming back…

Happy New Year ResEx-ers
same to you
LOVE the new site guys. I am THRILLED that the people who bought ResEx have added so much content to this site.
Seriously.
Great job guys.
Here’s hoping you guys add just as much content over the next two years.
odd
Now entering the bizarro world.
hello
hello
I was once led to believe that this site might actually rise again as a major force in themy-stuff, but now I see it has evolved into to something new. Something little, yellow, different and better. And I am pleased.
No themey-stuff, but there sure as hell is some fabulous user-generated content here.
Cheers,

Nice to see that everybody’s still around!
Happy N-Years to everyone.
Hey, thanks admin!
I bet it was some Windows jerks who bought ResEx, just so us Mac users lose the best Mac custom site ever. Now we’re left with a handful of semi-decent sites.
odd nontent
I don’t even buy the conspiracy theory because it involves effort–and we all know that effort is instantly sucked into a void when anyone comes within 10 miles of this site.

Dumb thought: How’s about getting the site up first, AND THEN asking this? Yes, keep it, put in some sort of Archive/historical place along all the OS 9 stuff, all the other fun things they had on this place, etc.
Wait… did someone actually RESPOND to this post? Really, Wayne? Wow! I almost fell out of my chair.

WTF, man? Have you not read the past 4,000 comments which have been posted over the past 2 years??!!

Ah, but the more important date is 11 months until the 3 year anniversary of the last official post made by an ACTUAL site owner here–Nontent Day: January 8th, 2010! Mark your calendars!
Last month’s celebration was fantastic!

The infinite abyss and no longer a light at the end of the tunnel. Your actually falling in a big hole and the light is gone. Its a matter of waiting til December 2012 comes and it really won’t matter. I understand that you are working four jobs I mean four jobs and raising 12 kids and having to care for 6 wifes and never knowing from one moment to the next if you are going to be able to think of a fraction of code to insert into the web site.

that’s our thought at this point as well. much of the content is largely useless now, but we’re moving for historical preservation of the mac gui scene.”

Ahh… nostalgia of fake admin posts.

Yes, it would be nice to have the old screen shots just for a good record of previous GUIs. Old GUI still have some use and perhaps are better to study than the more complicated ones today.
So is there anything going on here? This use to be one of the better web sites for Macs. Please say it isn’t dead!

was cleaning up my bookmarks and found this site (redirected) from one of them.
Any news on when this thing will be up and running? Can’t wait!

In fact, come to think of it, it’s been a while since a fake admin post–like that one–has graced us. lol

Are we back? Is this on? (tap, tap, tap) Hello?
Enough screwing around. Let’s get this site back up and running once and for all. I’ll throw in 75 cents to get the party started.
@ Maestro
Was just checking too to see if it was back up
THIS POST IS 13 MONTHS OLD, ALMOST 14!!!!
WTF!?
I miss this site!!! When it’ll born?
Sorry but the site was temporarily hijacked by some Islamic group called Friends of Osama.
Why do I keep coming back here. It’s like driving by a car wreck; you don’t want to look but you slow down and do it anyway!
How about something new… you know like progress!
Wooooohooo!!
looks like the main hole got too deep!
Feels good to be back again, even if there is no progress!
Some one must sill care about this place… Word press tags seem to be fixed.
That’s why this site is so weird: because there’s someone here, but he never does anything.
I mean, that hack page was up for almost 2 weeks or so.
WordPress got updated to a new version, I see.
We hit China, apparently in the main hole. Can the loyal, faithful, lamely addicted tenants of this website cause every hole to reach China? Time will tell. We have a lot of work to do.
It’s the software upgrade to WordPress which caused the error.
But why upgrade WordPress on a site that hosts nothing but nontent?
The old version probably was what allowed the hackers access. At least this shows that there is some interest here, but probably only ’cause ResEx is stored on the same server as their other more profitable websites.
what was interesting about the hacked version of this site was that it was running for almost 4 weeks before it was fixed. a post on macthemes pointing out the ‘new look’ arab music friendly resexcellence was locked quickly and has since been deleted from their forums.
i guess someone upset an admin or mod at macthemes.
Hmmm…. Maybe this will work.
Nope….. Word press is killing the fun…
300!!!!
Ha. If this site ever does come back, I’m sure the explanation for the past three years will be good, or at least, it had better be!
“Well, you see, 3 years ago, it happened like this….”
spam
moar spam!
Message for the admins,
Guys the archives of this site contained countless resources used by the historical mac community. I know that the modern trend is to discard the past or at least trivialize the value of it. The current Mac community has excepted many new members without the experience and joy of the deep levels of exploration and discovery provided by the resource editor and the hex editor.
However,
Speaking for my self and perhaps some in this community I would be willing to pay $100 for a copy of the archives that existed at the point that this site was taken over. No pressure to continue your efforts or to usurp the material, I just still have use for a lot of the content that was available only here. Please email me and I will gladly send you a TeraByte HDD to copy the archive onto.
So……………. how about that diggin?

bwahahaaahahahaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hello
Hello there, my child.
geez, go away for awhile and….well…nothing changes…
sorry.
@tomhammac:
Hello!
This entry got so many replies so quickly! There’s treachery afoot!
Well, at least they have a game on this site: The “Find your comment in the past-500 comments” game.
Why do I keep getting moderation notices?
It was a dark December night in the shire and Frodo was well aware that evil was present all around. So taking his silver cane and wrapping his dark blood soaked cape around him he vanished…
I keep coming back to this site. I can delete the URL, but I will not. WHAT IS THE ODD POWER OF THIS SITE?!?!?!?
this thing on ?
holy sheep dip batman. it’s up and running again.
glad to see the gee’haaad maggots are gone
ok dammit I’m back. I’m using my psychic powers to will all former reez’ees to come back. dons aluminum foil hat… chant begins… OHM’s LAW OHM’s LAW…etc
Hey bubba!
Hello?
So it’s dead?
Wow, nobody’s pulled the plug yet?
is there some sort of… i dunno projected time when resex will be back? be waiting for hmmm years and years…
boo
Pathetic.
just checking in again…
Same here…
i hate to say this, but i don’t think resexcellence is coming back up anytime soon. i don’t have any hard evidence or official word of this. i’m just basing my assumption off several years of observation. sorry to break the news to everyone, i’m sure this is a shock.
…and now to continue our tale of Frodo meets Godzilla. It was a cool dust afternoon and Tiny Tim trudged wearily up the hill. It had been 3
/sigh
The only thing shocking is that these posts can still be made.
@decline: what a profound conclusion! :-0
“And of course, we highly encourage you guys to spread the word and let fellow Resex fans know this is happening!”
That quote was posted here, on 1 November 2006, by “Phillip Ryu”!
THREE. YEARS. AGO.
3 years of nontent, yo’s!
yo this thing works again!!!
ghhhs sfghh sfgh
oh! we can post again! I last tried in March and thought it was dead…. but there’s still life lurking under here somewhere : )
This is really dead. I was hoping ResExcellence would get back up on it feet, but its Staff is too FAI<L to even bother. what a waste of time YOU ALLL SUCK!
Hello? Why don’t any comments show?
Wow! Hard to believe this site is back accepting comments! I’m so happy to be back–and just in time for the countdown to Nontent Day: January 8th: The commemoration of the last “real” post by the then site owners.
.
Remember, this will be the third anniversary of Nontent, and that means Leather, Glass… or domain renewal… your choice!
.
Great to be back!
oh i forgot about the anniversary
Wow, resex is up again…
Well, sort of, haven’t checked this post in months…
Just here to say hello.
I don’t think this is accepting posts…
Ahh Doug, classic. Don’t know why I bothered coming back, but I guess that faint hope in a resurrection is still there. I’ll be back for Nontent Day!
Weeeeeeeeeeee
I’ll put the nontent day in my diary and head back here then… Happy Christmas everyone (Doug & decline & Admin then I guess!)
I’m peeing my pants with excitement.
Good to see you again, decline
Hello World! I have come to accecpt that this place is
d-e-d DED.
I say we start flooding the board with ASCII porn. But that’s just me.
oh resexcellence, you’re a heartbreaker. our spring will never arrive.
This site will never make a full recovery…
Time for some deep thoughts.
Just take this site down, for the love of all that is holy.

Hello World! I have come to accecpt that this place is
d-e-d DED.
For the love of sam, why am i awaiting moderation?
No, that’s not allowed. They have to leave it up to make us think maybe there is a 1% chance of it coming back.
Shame on you for suggesting such a thing!
jajjajajaja te copio la pagina web un segundo vale?
Sorry to see such a wealth of knowledge and faithful followers go by the wayside. I’ve been hoping there was something to hope for, but it seems futile at this point.
Please post any new intentions and or progress as we would all like to know.
Thanks.
First post of 2010!

Yay for 2010.
Two-thousand-ten or Twenty-ten?
I thought it was two hundred one and zero
2-Thousand-10, but mostly just out of habit.
Happy New Year guys!
I have been posting for ages and it always says waiting for moderation or some crap like that. wtf
Oh, I missed the Nontent anniversary
did we all miss Nontent Day…?
Yeah, I have been back here several times over the years, sad to see our favorite X: ResX, is probably gone. Even the copyright at the bottom of this page says 2006!

GOOD GOD! this site is still not up and running!!!??? this used to be one of the most killer websites and you friggin idiots bought it and never updated it???????????
Hello 2010
yay feb.
I really miss this place. it’s all shiny and new but very, very depressing.
Yay feb?
How about yay no progress since a long, log time back?
*sigh*
I guess I shall resign myself to non-excellence.
how many posts until the server runs out of memory?
Considering how little space text takes up and the fact that storage space is cheap I would say we’d need to produce millions of pages of comments to even start putting a dent in the space available.
And then do you know what would happen? They’d go out and buy a larger hard disk, but do nothing else.
Remember how this weblog was hacked, and then upgraded a few months ago? There is _someone_ out there, laughing at us.
I’ll be, someone installed mod_rewrite! O_o
OH SHIT. This is still up.
I HAVE SOME NEWS FOR THE THEMING COMMUNITY!!!
Uno developers, at Interacto.net said they were readying a theming solution with a beta coming out March ’10. It was posted on Macthemes forums, but as you know the mods over there are associated with Vaporware Façade and Architect, they deleted the post over the weekend. I can’t find anything on Twitter, MacNN forums, Macrumors etc. If somebody can find any info about this, please post here.
And keep an eye on interacto.net in the near future.
Hope we can get theming back!
is it nap time yet? this page is making me sleepy
is it nap time yet? this page is making me sleepy
i think running the server out of memory should be our goal.
So this place is still here? What happened to those Arab buyers I heard tell about? I guess they found better things to do with their money.

Yay, it’s March.
I’ve run out of rants here. Twitter actually appeals to me now. So thanks, Unsanity and ResEx, for addicting me to Twitter. Now I can live my life in procrastination.
“Remember how this weblog was hacked, and then upgraded a few months ago? There is _someone_ out there, laughing at us.”
But of course they’ve likely forgot about us now that it’s been several years. Doesn’t a domain EVER run out?
“Laughing at us?” You guys sound like you need to take your meds. Calm down already.
March over here bitch!
Im pretty sure that it would take ohhhh a billion posts to even get close to denting the servers storage.
kormsbee: But it’d be horrible to the ram.
PS: Can someone allow me into not being moderated?
I got a boogie on my finger.
you have a boogie on your finger? thats better than a boogie on the keyboard.
The two posts made on 12th Mar and 18th Mar are not by me, even though they say admin.
One can tell by the writing style. Anyways….
is this side forever dead?
This site is dead since more than 3 years now.
How UnSanity team could have lied to us so much?
It doesn’t take so much time to create a website which is mainly an archive now.
They just buyed Resexcellence to kill a competitor. And they dared to pretend to make it better.
For now I just see that the archive is unreachable for three years.
So bye bye liers !
I won’t come back.
and farewell ResExcellence. Rest in Peace.
But I did post those two posts.
Random Test…
Damn, thought I could get through. I’ll make my own signature, in case this finds its way through.
~1029
[Happy now?]
I like hamburgers
Remember when Resexcellence used to do awesome April Fool’s joke pages on the site?
Yeah, those were the days ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Yay it’s April.
I need my fix, and I’ve gone everywhere on the internet.
The conclusion is the same everywhere on all sites and for all developers..
OSX 6-7~ is in the process of a re-write, as far as theming is concerned,
that is doing away with lots of old formats and bringing in new ones.
Any work done while using the old software will be useless when Apple
rolls out the new stuff. So there will be no work until it comes out.
Best guess : 10.7(July 2011). You have another 7+ months to wait.
I wonder what happens to this site when the year turns 2012?
hello, eeeverybody!
-1-1-1-1-1-1-1!
lol i forgot about this… I cant believe its still going lmao!
What is happening? Seriously. Just would like to know why this site is just squatting on the pot here for so long…
ResExcellence is a classic!
Yawn… seriously… what is happening?

Error: please type a comment.
how many posts until the server runs out of memory?
where am I
can you hear me NOw
There hasn’t been an update since 2008. At least put something back here, I don’t really care if it’s organized (organize it later!) There are historical files now lost because of a developer that has stopped doing his job
yay for May!
Is there anything to report? Is this just a vapor-site now?
Hello World!
Still May…..
Hmmmmmm…. the end comes on 2013-04-14 04:00:00 GMT
BEWARE THE GREASY TOE!
oh noes! toes! :-0
oh-noes! Toes! :-0
CheeseIt!
Glorious Nontent!
!tnetnoN suoirolG
Squirrels did this.
This, squirrels did.
For a split second I was really excited that this site still existed……then I noticed two years of forum comments about it just hanging here….wonder if http://www.archive.org has the old site…
This comments section is like the new Facebook. Hi friends.
First post for June.
Those 3 posts above are not by me. The one about toes, on the 17th, is by me.
This one is also by me.

lol ResExcellence this is ridiculous.
Didn’t think a website could be vaporware, but ResExcellence manages it.
Who are you to say who/who not you are?
I’m not me, I’m him. You know, that guy over there. What do you mean you don’t see him, he’s right there!
Non-Nontent?
Good point, there, admin. In the long run, it doesn’t really matter what’s said because posting with the name of ‘admin’ is about as good as posting with the name ‘anonymous’.
I found this in the midst of a Fairly Pointless Goolgequest for OS 9 themes. It is a remarkable pheonomenon, and I think I might make it my very own personal blog page.
Good point admin. I always agree with admin, except for the time I disagree with him.
However, for some, posts don’t get through…
Wow, I came back to check on things, not thinking there’d be any updates, and not knowing if anyone still posted nonsense comments like they always have. Apparently they do. Wow. Anybody ever think of using this comment space for something? Like posting interesting links or something?
Just wondering.
It will all come to an end in 2012
July!
If you want to find all the cops, they’re hanging out in the donut shops.
i can post with both!
Wow… I hadn’t come here in years… what is the point of this “bookmark” in cyberspace?
Resexcellence was one of the best sites on the net back in Mike’s day… but just became a sad joke.
I used come here to read the “we are working on getting this site back to what it was” bullshit but now it is just silly…
Years have past since I was last here and NOTHING has changed… why don’t you guy(s) just pack it in and let someone else have this little slice of hard drive space and finally let resexcellence RIP…
I can see you when you sneeze.
I don’t want to sound like a smartass. It’s your site and you can do what you want with it and it’s none of anyones business. There are a lot of people who still remember and miss the old Resexcellence and it would be nice to know where this might be going.
Again the owners aren’t under any obligation. Is it money? Time? Money and time? If it’s money I’m certain if you get a figure and set up a way to donate many of us would do that.
I’m just a curious Macintosh user from way back and would like to see this site come back and thrive again.
This is likely the strangest punishment to old time Mac Users, keeping the Res. on life support.
August! Whoohoo!
August!
ResExcellence calendar App anyone?
i have followed this site for years and was sad to see it go down.. my question is… what year will it be online again as it has been down ages… many thanks
August the 10th.
Why is this still here!?!?!???!!
YOU GUYS ARE REALY TESTING MY PATIENCE ! HERE
WAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Someone should create an app where you can post there and flood this site with posts!!!
Well … this is sad…. I mean.. august 18th is coming up =\ .. I’m just the casual onlooker, but I wish they could even put the old site up… it’s been two years without a change…
2 years!
why do my posts keep getting deleted?
I’d vote for archive of anything which can run a version of OS X – that should be far enough back…
Have wondered about the activity level of this site, myself. Even if it’s because the admin(s) has/have real jobs which are interfering with more progress, it’d be good to know where the progress is (Hey, even a cm of progress would be useful news, so to speak!).
What posts? I don’t see any deleted posts.
wow what a fucking joke
Good grief, someone forgot to flip the calendar to September and raised kormsbee’s hackles to top it off. Shame on you fake admin, get your crazy ass down here and fix it up. Damn punks, get off my lawn!
Talk about no change, check out: http://www.ultimatemac.com/
Seriously?? You haven’t done anything yet to the website. This is a joke. Close it.
This place is amazing wealth of nontent. someone should archive it to a disc!
Damn… I’ve been checking this site a couple of times a month since it got “fucked up”. Let us all keep up this site with our endless comments about life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. All non-starters really. (Stolen from THGTTG radioplay)
Things that are not can’t be because then nothing wouldn’t b. You can’t have nothing isn’t.
I do believe things are winding down. Only 2 posts in September. The parties over folks and it’s time to move on to bigger and better things. I’ll stick around to turn off the lights.
OK, last post from Aug 2008.
Is this site officially dead?
What happened to the “redesign”??
Ah resexcellence I remember the wonderful times we spent together all those years ago. Now you are lonely and (mostly) abandoned.
Happy Halloween Resex…
Visiting this place is like visiting the grave of an old dear friend. *sigh*
Here lies dear Resexcellence.com
@–}–’—,—- I brought you a single rose.
And yet it is impossible to stay away…
