Wow, this site has been around longer than i ever thought, since, 2001 or 2002. and has grown to now over 14,000 members, it is just amazing with the track exchange filled with over 605 pages full of tracks, with probly more since it seems like some have been lost. I currently have been here for 2 years this september, and it seems like not much has changed, but when i first signed up it seemed like the layout was a little more different, than now like the log on. Also there have been a lot of changes with the members to, if you look at the first forums, their are very few same members, and we have seen a Site Admin leave, who was G Force Addict, who is now retired. It is just amazing to see how things have changed like Canadmos has changed his user name, which the old one i forgot which has been bothering me, i can't remeber what it was. The tracks back then in 2002, 2003, were also a lot more well better, more original IMO and now people (like me) just slap a coaster together in an hour and think that it will be a ten rate, but ends up only getting a 6 if they are lucky.

Well if there are any old images anyone has of WWS when the layout was different, please upload them, i would like to see the stages of the site through the ages.

So October 1st, 2004 was when we got this current layout, which is by far the best of all of them.

Forcination Nation or something like that :p.

I've only been around here since last August, so I'm not really familiar with the site's history.

[lol] I remember the very first layout WWS.Com had, with the black skin. I was more of a coastergames.net-er back then though, so rarely visited the site. Who here remembers Weng?

Well I'm one of the eldest member and one of the most unknown[:p]

Because at first I was only downloading tracks and I didn't go on the forum!

I perfectly remember the old logo [xx(]
Fortunately they change it!

Well Long live WeeWeeslap!!![worship]
