See the site history page I linked to in the news post, there are links within that page to archive.org, which sort of show what it looked like before. Some images are missing or have been overwritten with new ones since the archive though - meaning it may look a little weird. Well, here's some links anyway: June 14th, 2003 July 1st, 2003 August 3rd, 2003 October 8th, 2003 - loads of images missing here. phpnuke was used. May 24th, 2004 And that's the most recent page archive.org has for us, nothing from 2005 which has our previous layout which was made by Dennis.

Me neither

But we're going off topic now. Post your pictures here to be entered into the sexiest member competition.

Today marks the fourth anniversary of The GTA Place, a website which has grown into one of the largest resources on the Internet for Grand Theft Auto information, and one which started as just a few basic pages to try out some HTML. Obviously we've come a long way in 4 years, the whole community has witnessed an immense rise in popularity, as has The GTA Place, currently serving thousands of visitors every single day with information, downloads and media. I won't go on about the history of the site, as you can read all about that for yourselves on the website history page. In keeping this post short and sweet, I have to thank the visitors for making this site such a success. All the new members joining the community everyday, all the people downloading mods, enhancing their games, and all the people just looking for information and tips - keeping us going all this time. Obviously GTA IV is now our main focus, and you can find all latest news and information here on thegtaplace.com, and can find answers to all the questions you have about GTAIV on our forums, where you can also post your wishlists and thoughts on the upcoming game. Thanks for reading, and stay tuned for more updates on Vice City Stories, Grand Theft Auto IV, and other related news!

I ordered my Xbox 360 with Call of Duty 3 earlier this evening, so hopefully it'll get sent tomorrow, and arrive on thursday, or Friday maybe. Also bought Gears of War and PGR3. Thing is I won't be able to play it over the weekend as I won't be at home, which sort of sucks, anyway at least I'll be able to pwn you all soon.

You get 0.53% for everything completed, i.e. each mission completed, finding all the oysters, spraying all the tags etc. Me and another GTA webmaster once had a go at this but it was pretty difficult to actually make it work.

It will be similar yes, though it can be discussed elsewhere, this thread is for posting your xbox live gamertag.

^RTFA Nothing to do with getting an iPod repaired, it was a review copy which is due back, Asians won't be anywhere near it.

Only 8 people have posted pics at the moment. Come on guys, don't be scared, you pussies!

ROFL you guys, you can't see sarcasm. It was a joke, a childish thing that would be useless for anyone to download. Plus, Hunter's are dark green already. Lol.

Which episode is actually on in the UK now? I downloaded some ages ago after being tired of waiting... Are you talking about the one where Locke is smoking that stuff, not actually sure what it was but he was hallucinating and Boone was pushing him around in a wheelchair, and then we saw him as a zombie, pretty weird.

Meh... you should al get on sites like the ones in my first post, instead of hanging around gta forums all the time

Moved to San Andreas General.

Today we've added a couple more moderators to our growing team of staff, they are Slayer and Gerard. Congrats guys! Gerard of course used to be a super mod here, but decided to step down to concentrate on other projects and also due to time constraints, while Slayer is a new member to the team, and is our first (wait for the pointless fact...) mod to come from mainland Europe, however his English skills are excellent, and spelling + grammar is not a worry for us. I personally like and encourage the staff to project a somewhat professional image here, so decent spelling and grammar are skills I always notice among members, if you can't get these right then you've no hope of becoming a moderator. I also look out for people who deal with problems in a positive and helpful manner, and aren't abusive towards other members when the question they ask may be 'stupid' to everyone else, but not to a newbie. Slayer will be moderating in an area he has a great deal of knowledge in, stunting, he'll also be moderating all the San Andreas forums, plus those in General Discussion (apart from PC Chat). Gerard will be moderating in an area he is an expert in, PC Chat, along with all the other General Discussion forums. He'll also moderate the Serious Chat forum, as well as GTA4. A current run-down of the current staff and their positions is as follows: Administrators Chris - Founder of the website, manages absolutely everything to do with the website and forums Righty - General helper, very trustworthy person to have as a 'backup admin', someone with admin experience who can sort things out if I'm not here, and someone who can moderate anywhere when I'm absent. Super Moderators (Global) chris82 - Moderates all over the forums SkyliИe^ - Moderates all over the forums Ðãvë´ - Moderates all over the forums, and specialises in the Gang forums. Moderators Gerard - Moderates in; GTA4, Serious Chat, The Lounge, Fun and Games, Creativity, Entertainment, Gaming, PC Chat Slayer - Moderates in; San Andreas, Stunting, The Lounge, Fun and Games, Creativity, Entertainment, Gaming As you may have noticed, Vice City Stories, Liberty City Stories, Vice City, and GTA3, are the biggest forums we have left that would actually warrant a dedicated moderator. Obviously the admins and super mods can serve these areas, however a more dedicated member would be ideal... I have already outlined the most basic ideals I look for in selecting a member who I think would do a great job of moderating, with current staff actively able to make suggestions in the staff forum for me to see. In these forums, I always look for someone who is consistently active and helpful in that particular forum, let's take Vice City for instance... a member who is always replying helpfully to topics in the 3 subforums and generally active there, is obviously someone who we'd look to for moderating, assuming they showed a positive attitude and met the skills mentioned earlier in this post. So bear this in mind if looking for a staff position. And remember, NEVER ask an Admin if you can be a mod, this ALWAYS looks suspicious, no matter how genuine you are, if we're thinking of making you a mod, we will PM YOU. Finally, I've already said it, but congrats to Slayer and Gerard once again

As we said in your POTD ERROR topic, uploads are currently broken.

Forgot to mention my Flickr account - here, I don't really use it much at the moment but plan to later.

Probably some other Dave, she doesn't even know your name (you were Crimson at the time), probably her dad or cousin. just kidding. TGTAP does not condone incest. Why is my name in her sig? Here is my pic, look at your own risk.. http://img175.imageshack.us/img175/8913/imag0013yb8.jpg And hey look there is me! Can't remember who it was, but someone said we looked alike didn't they?

Yeah I could have added that option if I wanted to but it was just a joke and also it's not relevant for me to know how myself got here

That is VERY old now, nearly 2 years in fact, was cool at the time, and still is, but I'm personally tired of seeing it now. Also, still nobody knows who actually captured that vid? Pretty stupid to not put your name in it...

Speaking of Essex, anyone remember katie? lulz. what a n00b.

ROFL in his third pic he has mushroom hair actually. Anyone else think we should get kokane to post here, just to spice things up a bit? And hopefully some other female members will post too, not that we have enough for a competition but just for the hell of it, hopefully some more males will post tomorrow as well. I would like to pwn as many people as possible this time, even Spaz The Great.

I didn't vote as there wasn't an "I made it" choice in the poll

Which files exactly do you need?

Please stop. Uploads aren't working.

That's last year...
