I hope this isn't considered spamming... :P
If it is, feel free to remove it, obviously.
Atleast it's perfectly Cube-relative.

Well, anyway. I know there's already Quadropolis, for sharing maps, mods, and whatnot (I've never personally been to that site enough to comment on it myself, I took a look, and some of the maps there are pretty awesome ;) ).

Anyway, I've made a website for sharing your stuff, for any Cube-derivative program (such as Assault Cube or Platinum Arts Sandbox, for example). It's in beta, so most stuff needs to be emailed to me to be added, however, if you don't like that, I made an on-site map uploader. You need an account to use it though.You can share maps, games, utilities, tutorials and resources there.

If you don't know what I'm talking about, just take a look :P
http://sandboxuniverse.at.ua/

Originally I made the site for Sandbox Game Maker, hense the name. Maybe take a look at some of the games/utilities already posted, see if you like their pages. I tried to make it organised.

Oh how nice, javascript ads as well. I guess the usual pictures and site links were too easy to block.

I managed to remove the javascript ads before, somehow, without paying for my web hosting :P

But they made their way back it seems...

No worries, i can block everything. The space occupied by the popup bar still exists though, can't remove that without breaking something from the rest of the site.

In fact, I've set everyting (except the usual username, password and email) as optional. I don't know why it has made it all mandatory...

The ad tags are randomly generated and that won't work.. but given how many padding options they're given, it was easy to narrow them down to something blockable on all cases. Removed the little close button as well and we're done. :P

So far things however look good enough, there are a few things that could do with a tweak, but otherwise you have the basics down.

My old website was better:
(http://sbverse.moonfruit.com/)
But the host limited me to 15 pages, so I changed to this new one.

Ah, okay :D
I've altered it a bit to fit the theme of the rest of my site.

I've also decided to reproduce the site in various languages.
So far I've decided on:
Japanese
Dutch
Spanish
French
German
Arabic

If anyone knows any other languages they'd like the site in, just say ;D

Also the URL has changed.

You might want to download the flags to your domain and downscale them appropriately to avoid the load they cause to be fetched from another site and the bad rescaling they undergo :P

Sandbox Universe Japan is up.
http://sandversejp.at.ua/

There are still a couple areas to translate, though, such as the profile page.

You're really bored, aren't you. :P

Most people would have translated the page for 2,3 given languages, but i sense more coming.

Reminds Me of quin on IRC back in the golden heydays! Back then I was a mere noob coincidentally rebelliously hacking Cube 1 for the uncoincidental simple pleasure of owning other noobs!
Now I look back at those days as a hallmark for what not to do and punish such behavior on My severs! Technically still owning but for the good of the game...

cork239 good hobby you have.

Lols
I don't work on this website that often...
I have my own game projects I'm working on too. I also have a lot of school revision.......

I'm a Cube-noob :P
I've never actually played Cube 2 (or Cube), but I've used the editor a LOT.
