as of 5.12.1999

• The site layout was modified (again), into a more magazine-esque look. There is now a common banner to all sections.
• The [O] 2002 logo was added.
• The site is now more graphics-intensive due to the new pictures. It is best viewed using an 800x600 pixel TrueColor resolution.
• The [O] 2002 picture that used to appear in the mainpage was done away with, replaced instead with the site banner and logo.
• The CGI scripts are in the works.
• The Menu system is being experimented on.
• As of yet, frames are still not going to be implemented.
• An IE-only version of the site's highlights is in the works. This will make use of ActiveX scripting for  Powerpoint-like effects like transitions, flying text and graphics, etc. Users will need an IE 4.0 and up browser that supports cascading style sheets (MSIE 4.0x and 5.0 will do perfectly). Netscape users will be unable to experience these enhancements because Netscape currently does not support ActiveX.
• More Sc[O]rpio pictures are expected soon.
• The class pictures are expected to be finished soon.
• The Sc[O]rpio section is experiencing a problem with the VOTE button, presumably due to an internal server error. Efforts are being made to rectify this.
• Once the Bi[O]s section pictures and articles have been completed, the site is estimated to boost to 75% completion.
• The site will tentatively be finished by late June to early July of 1999.

as of 4.19.1999

• The site is primarily designed for Internet Explorer 4.0 and above.
  It has been written for, and tweaked for MSIE, although previewed in Netscape (with horrible results).
  There might be a section added that supports MSIE only, utilizing ActiveX text animations, transitions and presentations.
• If ever the site is to be viewed in Netscape, it had better be in Communicator 4.0 and above, preferably in Communicator 4.5 and above.
• Some parts of the code such as marquees and the like work ONLY with MSIE.
• Some parts of the code such as blinking text work only with Netscape.
• Animated pictures are in the works.
• Frames are  not going to be added as of yet.
• The Menu system is under construction.
• Counters, guestbooks and other CGI scripts are being prepared. Consultation must be made with the web host first.
• The Sc[O]rpio section pictures are being finalized.
• To avoid scrutinization, mockery, bad feedback, and a major booboo, there will be NO CLASS PICTURE except in the gallery, where it would have been EXTENSIVELY edited.
• Arrangements are being made for a digital camera.
• Previously taken pictures are being scanned, cleaned up, and enhanced.
  

[O] 2002 would like to thank...

First of all, God, our source of strength, life, and existence; our parents, God's special helpers who helped us get through our mortal [adolescent] lives; the Ateneo De Manila High School, our home out of home; Brother Michael I. Pineda, our teacher in our Freshman year; our teachers, our second parents in our academic haven; all you lovely ladies out there, who continue to inspire and relieve us of our mental and physical burdens; ourselves, for being brothers-in-arms all this time.
