Blog: The Life Of A Supreme Ruler
And the April award goes to…
Filed under: — orudge @ 02/05/2002 12:00 am
… er, I haven’t decided yet. /me makes up his mind quickly… HowStuffWorks! A very interesting site describing how many things work. Go to the Awards page. I have also uploaded a number of new screenshots to DesktopShots – check them out! Also, TTD fans may be pleased to know that I will upload some saved games of my recent (well, not so recent now…) desert and arctic games soon.
I’m still alive!
Filed under: — orudge @ 27/04/2002 12:00 am
There haven’t been many updates recently, but I’m still around, just very busy! Expect some DesktopShots updates as soon as I can get around to uploading them. On another note, RollerCoaster Tycoon II has just been announced. Maybe Transport Tycoon II is the other project Chris Sawyer is working on… Finally, I have created a new page about the new version of TTDAlter I am developing.
Star Wars Animation Player and owenrudge.co.uk Screensaver Released!
Filed under: — orudge @ 05/04/2002 12:00 am
I have released a new version of my Star Wars Animation Player that works on Windows, DOS, SEAL 1.x and SEAL 2.x – check it out! I have also released an owenrudge.co.uk Screensaver, for Windows and SEAL 2.x. On another note, I’ve uploaded some more screenshots to DesktopShots. Finally, there was a problem with the new version of the Advanced Guestbook script that meant nobody could sign the guestbook, so I’ve gone back to the old version, which is a shame, as the new version was a lot better, but ah well…
Updated poll and guestbook scripts, plus a new poll
Filed under: — orudge @ 23/03/2002 12:00 am
I have downloaded and installed the latest versions of the Advanced Guestbook and Advanced Poll scripts, both of which have several new features which were not in the versions I was using. If you’ve visited the guestbook before in particular, you will notice a number of new features.
A new poll has been started about Britney Spears. What do you think of her? Personally, I like her, but do you? Cast your vote now! For the results of the old poll, click here.
New screenshots at DesktopShots, plus new site on the horizon
Filed under: — orudge @ 22/03/2002 12:00 am
There are several new screenshots at DesktopShots, including an interesting new animated one, and a few Mac OS X shots. Check them out! Also, in the future I plan to start a new Melissa Joan Hart web site entitled "The Melissa Zone", which will be a great dynamic site about Melissa, with various innovative and exciting new features – check the later pages of this thread on the forums for more information. I will of course keep you updated as things progress with the site. Finally, I have fixed various problems that have cropped up with the site. Some incorrect image links in the OSPlus section have been corrected. Also, you may have had difficulty rating pages or doing certain other things – this is because permissions were reset on various files so the files couldn’t be written to, causing problems. This has been fixed too.
Transport Tycoon Saved Game Manager 2.2 released!
Filed under: — orudge @ 14/03/2002 1:00 am
Version 2.2 of the Transport Tycoon Saved Game Manager has been released! This version is a lot faster than previous versions, and contains various other enhancements and bug fixes. If you play Transport Tycoon, download this! Work has now begun on what might become Transport Tycoon Saved Game Manager 3.0, which may have an Explorer-like interface – check back in the future for more information!
Updates to DesktopShots, the Transport Tycoon Station, and more
Filed under: — orudge @ 12:00 am
I’ve been very busy recently, which is the reason why this site hasn’t been updated as often as I would have liked. Anyway, there are some new screenshots at DesktopShots. I have also uploaded some new saved games to the Transport Tycoon Station, with more to come. Speaking of TT, version 2.2 of the Saved Game Manager will be out soon. On another note, I’ve awarded the February 2002 site award to The Sabrina Transcripts, a site with transcripts of series 1-5 of Sabrina The Teenage Witch (with season 6 coming soon). If you’re a Sabrina fan, check it out! Finally, a little note: if you’ve been trying to get to www.transporttycoon.uk.tt, www.savedgamemanager.uk.tt or www.gamearchive.uk.tt and have had problems, then the reason for this is that a new company is taking control of the .tt TLD, and services are a bit disrupted while this is going on – please bear with me.
GEM Workshop updates
Filed under: — orudge @ 16/02/2002 12:00 am
Long time no see… The reason for the lack of updates recently is because I’m quite busy these days. Right now, I’m busy working on another site, MP3Violation.com, which launches on the 1st March. Be sure to check it out! Anyway, back to owenrudge.co.uk. I’ve updated various pages in the GEM Workshop, including the Screenshots and GEMP3 page. I’ve also updated the Links page. PS: Keep sending in those screenshots for DesktopShots!
And the January award goes to…

New screenshots at DesktopShots
Filed under: — orudge @ 27/01/2002 12:00 am
I have uploaded various new screenshots to DesktopShots. Click here to view them! BTW, if you are using a fairly large screen resolution, or would like the content to take up the full width of your browser, then click here to go to the Customise page, where you can choose how you want the site to appear to you. You can also turn the drop-down menus at the top of the screen on or off with this.
Today’s update
Filed under: — orudge @ 05/01/2002 12:00 am
Due to connection problems, I was unable to upload the update that was meant to be on the 3rd (see below). So here it is now. Since then, I’ve added a Windows XP screenshot gallery to DesktopShots – check it out!
Latest Additions
Filed under: — orudge @ 03/01/2002 1:00 am
As usual, I’ve got behind on uploading my updates, so there is a big one for you now. Firstly, I’ve given the December 2001 award to Allegro.cc, a great site dedicated to the Allegro game programming library. Click here to go to the Awards page. Also, Transport Tycoon Saved Game Manager 2.1 has been released, in case you missed the news item below (which was never actually uploaded on the 22nd…. oh dear). Click here to go to the Manager page. There are also new screenshots at DesktopShots. I plan to give DesktopShots a whole new look, and new dynamic functionality soon. More information on this later… Finally, I will soon release File3D 1.2 and also an owenrudge.co.uk Screensaver, for both Windows and SEAL. Check back soon for these!
Happy New Year!
Filed under: — orudge @ 12:00 am
I’d just like to say happy new year to all my visitors! I hope you had a great Christmas. 2001 has been a very good year for owenrudge.co.uk. Firstly, the owenrudge.co.uk Forums were launched back in January, which have proved to be very popular (especially the Melissa Joan Hart one). The site also expanded in various ways, with the addition of the Ultimate Transport Tycoon Game Repository, various other sections of the site, and the takeover of DesktopShots.
Transport Tycoon Saved Game Manager 2.1 is out!
Filed under: — orudge @ 22/12/2001 12:00 am
I have released version 2.1 of the Transport Tycoon Saved Game Manager. This contains several enhancements and bug fixes, and is highly recommended. I have also uploaded a browsable version of the SGM help file. Click here to go to the SGM page.
GEMP3 2.2 released, plus new screenshots at DesktopShots
Filed under: — orudge @ 16/12/2001 12:00 am
I have finally got around to releasing GEMP3 2.2, which you can find here. I have also gone through the GEM Workshop and generally updated a lot of the material. Finally, I have uploaded some new screenshots to DesktopShots.
And the November award goes to…
Filed under: — orudge @ 02/12/2001 12:00 am
…. BritneyFans.com! A brilliant Britney Spears web site, with a great design, thousands of photos, a number of videos, and more! Click here to go to the Awards page.
New screenshots at DesktopShots
Filed under: — orudge @ 30/11/2001 12:00 am
I was unable to upload yesterday’s update because the server was being moved when I tried to upload the files. Anyway, I have uploaded around eight new screenshots to DesktopShots. Keep ’em coming! 
Server problems
Filed under: — orudge @ 29/11/2001 12:00 am
Over the past week or so, some of you may have been experiencing problems with this site, in that some links on various pages give you error 404s. If you look at the source of the page, you will find that various characters may have had slashes added. This doesn’t seem to happen all the time though. I have no idea why this is happening – I think something may have changed in the PHP configuration on the server. I have added a little thing to the common include file which may help solve the problem, but I don’t really know if it will. I have e-mailed UKLinux support, but have had no reply yet – I will try again later. If you continue to have problems, please e-mail me.
owenrudge.co.uk is two years old today!
Filed under: — orudge @ 28/11/2001 12:00 am
This site is two years old today! There haven’t been a huge number of updates recently, but I am planning a few things for the future: 1) Transport Tycoon Saved Game Manager 2.1 should be out soon. 2) GEMP3 2.2 should be out sometime soon too. 3) I may be taking over Melissa Joan Hart Central. 4) I am planning a new section on DesktopShots for my own Windows XP screenshots. I also have some screenshots to upload which I will do either tomorrow, Friday, or at the weekend. Finally, 5) I will get around to adding a new poll very soon, probably when I do the above. Please check back soon!
