This page is a place holder for your future web site

Access to your Site Administrator: http://musclezine.com/admin/
Clicking on the above URL will require the Site Administrator username, the domain and password. This information should have been supplied to you by your hosting company. Access to User Administrator: http://musclezine.com/user/
Each individual user within your site will have access to their own administrator page. To login they will need to supply their username, the domain, and the password that was given to them.
Note: You may wish to bookmark these links before replacing the contents of this page
If your site is enabled with Miva Merchant, you can access administration functions via your Site Administrator and build your E-Commerce site.
If your site is enabled with Microsoft Frontpage, you may use it to replace or edit this page by connecting to this server by using the username and password that was supplied to you. Make sure to open the RootWeb when you login.
You may also wish to use other publishing tools to create your website, and in that case you will want to use a FTP client to transfer your web pages onto your web site. Here is a simple and quick guide to getting your website up and running in no time!

Publicize your site
1. Create Content
There are a variety of ways to create content. The easiest way is to use a Web content publishing tool such as Macromedia Dreamweaver, Macromedia Fireworks or a variety of other free publishing tools that you can find on the internet. Other tools that are helpful include graphical editing tools such as Paintshop Pro and even more dynamic content generators like Macromedia's Flash. You may also wish to edit your contents yourself by using a text editor and learning HTML. Here are some pointers to learning HTML

2. Publish your content
Once you've finished your page/site, you'll need to upload it to your web server. FTP (File Transfer Protocol) allows a person to transfer files between two computers, generally connected via the Internet. You can either FTP your files via the command line (i.e. DOS), or you can find yourself an FTP client which executes all the commands in a drag-and-drop interface. We would highly recommend the latter to beginners and experts alike. FTP clients make the publishing process simple.
FTP Basics
To FTP, you will need to know the host location, as well as your username and password. All your web site contents are stored in /var/www/html.
Using an FTP Client
Most FTP clients have the same basic layout, functionality, and price. Choosing one is simply a matter of personal preference. Some of the more popular clients for Windows-based computers include WS_FTP, CuteFTP, and BulletProof FTP and for Macintosh computers include Fetch, and Interarchy. All clients come with documentation, and it shouldn't take you long to figure out how to get started. But here are a few basics:
There will be some kind of "Site Manager" feature which will store all your FTP locations and their corresponding login information. Once you enter this info, the client will automatically log you in.
There will be three screens. One representing your local machine, one representing the remote host, and one which shows the files that are queued for transfer. You will need to navigate to the correct folders on both your local machine and the host machine.
You will then highlight the files you wish to upload on your local machine, and there should be a button at the top that queues the files for upload. The upload might execute immediately, or you might have to hit a "Go" button first.
That's it! Your files are uploaded! You should now be able to go to your URL and view the page.
3. Publicize Your Site
Search Engines and Internet Catalogs
Probably the most common way to publicize your site and generate traffic is to submit it to search engines (i.e. Google) and internet catalogs (i.e. Yahoo!). Most of these sites have a form you can fill out to submit your site. To save yourself some time, you can try a service that submits your site to multiple search engines and internet catalogs by filling out just one form. There are many of these services out there, such as www.submit-it.com. By adding meta tags to your site, you can increase the relevancy of your pages in people's searches. Meta tags will be discussed a bit later.
Reciprocal Links
If your page has a theme, seek out pages with similar themes and ask the webmaster to post a link to your site. In exchange, you promise to add a link to their site on yours. This is a great way to get the word out about your site for free.
Newsgroups
Look for newsgroups where you think people who would be interested in your site might frequent. Post a message announcing your site and its features. Don't do this too often as it is sometimes considered Spamming (unsolicited advertising).
Web Rings
If there are other pages that are similar to yours, there might be a web ring out there dedicated to your kind of site. Do an internet search for "web ring" and include a keyword related to your site. If you join a web ring, you will need to add a web ring graphic and links to your page.
Advertising
If you really want to give your site some exposure, you can create a banner ad and find a company that will get your banner put up on numerous pages. The cost generally depends on the amount of impressions (how many times it is seen) or click-throughs (how many times it is actually clicked on).

hhajdo link works though.Sorry for the late reply guys. I was really busy last night preparing a seminar which I had to present today to a company and I just got back home about 30 minutes ago to find that there was a bit of a problem getting into the site.
Again, sorry for all of those that were cut off from Musclezine for awhile but one of our mods, hhajdo, has posted the way to access the site for now.
Now, theres no need to really get into details so I'll try and make this brief. As most of you know, Txlonghorn and I took over Musclezine in late September because it was a ghost town and at the time we believed that there was an opportunity to build another successful bb'ing site for our community. Now at the time Tx and I were only focused on getting the site up and running smoothly. We did not look in depth at the ownership situation at the time because our focus was elsewhere and we just assumed the ownership was stable. Well, as time has gone on and MZ is starting to become somewhat successful, because of the many hours myself and Tx have put into MZ, we inquired into the ownership to make sure that the site would not just disappear on us one day and that my staff's hard work would not be for nothing. We found out a couple things about the ownership and have been working the last couple days on fixing some kinks in the ownership. Basically to make a very long story short, MZ will have a new domain name in the very short future and the ownership situation will be completely stable as it will be owned exclusively by myself, Tx and our webmaster Amaf.
This basically should assure our members that MZ is here to stay for a long long time. And for all of you that call Elite your home, hopefully MZ can become your summer home if you will. A board that you can get some differing opinions, suggestions, knowledge and advice from.
I hope my explanation of things was clear. And again, my apologies to all that couldnt access the site there for awhile. The domain name being pulled from us was quite unexpected but I can assure you that with the new ownership team, this kind of thing will never happen again.
if you have any questions or comments please feel free to emal me at [email protected]
And a big thanks to the Elite staff for keeping this thread in the Anabolic forum so that everyone could see. Its much appreciated.

Thanks all behind the zine
It is a nice new fast growing site w/many members from Elite come and members of musclezine come here. I think its great to see a kind of a collaboration with members of similar love in the BB lifestyle, and some just to chat.
I like the respecting of one anther's boards and look forward to see some of same faces "names" at both and get along without conflicts.
"Our board rules, yours drools" sort of thing I seen with other boards.
Theres power in numbers.
Long live both boards!
