My poor website is rusting away!

Hey people (and anything else that's looking at this post)! Almost a year and a half ago, I created my first website (www.zartonia.com). Ok, I admit, the home page is kinda lame and it's pretty incomplete, so if you wanna see what the real stuff looks like, you could just check out the following page: www.zartonia.com/the-psychic-realm/intro.html As you can probably imagine, that took a pretty long time to make. In fact, I took SO long just making the site look pretty that I hardly put any real content in it. Then I started thinking - I wanna make this BIG! I wanna make sections and subsections - an entire city in the sky with each building corresponding to a particular section. However, I didn't want to be the only person in this city. I wanted ... no ... NEEDED architects, designers, artists, writer, pet crocodiles ... ok, maybe not pet crocodiles. So here's my master plan .... I want my website to correspond to a city or an empire named Zartonia. And I want to build this empire along with the people who inhabit it. I need inhabitants. I need you! If anyone reading this (or even people who're not reading this) would like to own their own little building, locality or even sub-kingdom in this online Empire, and if that person is willing to help build that Empire by lending their skills, I'd love to have you onboard. The following is a list of what we need: 1) Graphics Designers - We need some really good ones who can model buildings and city architecture. I'm open to 3D software, VRML or even plain 2D imaging. 2) Web Developers - Especially guys who do server side scripting. We need these guys and we need them fast. If we get even a handful of good programmers, we can make this like a mini-computer game. You get virtual gold coins for work done by you as well as the number of people who visit pages built by you. You use this to buy buildings, land and other property in the city, expand your influence and maybe start your own kingdom within the empire. But for all that, we need those developer dudes! 3) Web Designers - Guys and gals who do HTML, CSS and JavaScript. 4) Content Providers - People who can provide information. You don't have to be a great writer, you just need to give us information that we can use to create articles for the website. 5) Editors - These are the guys who use the content providers' information to create articles that eventually make up the website. Everyone gets a fair mention in the website and it's something you can put on your resume. All major contributors, especially web developers and graphics designers, could be displayed on a special page as the Architects of Zartonia. I'm up for suggestions and feedback if any.
