Title: jQuery Clone

Ok, so, as the people monitoring the overhaul thread and my introduction thread already know, I've been working independently on a project intended to mimic the functionality of the of the Charas-Project Charaset Generator interface using asynchronous Javascript instead of PHP. I think this would have many advantages, among which are:

• The oppourtunity to update the look and feek if the charaset generator
• The ability to update the sprite without updating the page.
• Decreased workload for the charas-project servers.
• Separate presentation from mechanics(eliminate the frames and make the whole thing prettier and easier to maintain)
• General increases to the end-user experience and utility

and I would absolutely be honored if I could just give to you.

However I have had some difficulty accomplishing this project for several reasons, partly my own workload rarely permits me working on it, but also there are several things about how the site currently works which I do not quite understand and I'm reaching out to find someone who does to help me out.

First and foremost, where exactly are the paper-doll images and their clothes located on the server(and incidentally, what it the licensing situation there)? My goal is to create something that can plug-and-play with the site's current file structure but with the generator, I cannot seem to figure out where the image is actually coming from, and contacting the PHP server to ask for them seems really unecessary. Ideally, it would be awesome to have an overview of the file structure underlying the charaset generator.

Just found the Archive board. Looks like some stuff might be there.

I like your assertiveness, and I'm sure we all can appreciate any work you've done. Let's wait to see what the people in control of the site have to say.
