A nice summary for new ant keepers with some good information for everyone on things like culturing food and creating formicariums.

 

If you didn't notice, I have added a second formicarium guide, and even a video on how to make them (3 part video).  Although I notice that I have to redo part 2 as there is a slight mixup in the video order.

Oh ok. 

I will add your newest additions soon, but recently I haven't had much time to work on the ant site, because I'm developing another one with my friend.

Not a problem.

It will give me time to fix my videos and post them properly.

Ok, tell me when you're done. It's almost relaxing time for me, first semester is almost over.

The website sure has grown since the last time I visited it! ( Well, that was a few months ago... )

Update! I have added a view-tracker to my site. Now I know how helpful it's been, and who's viewing it.

I have also changed the colour theme. If anyone likes the old one, please say so.

I finally fixed the video, it has 3 parts.  If it helps, I can provide the links (I pulled the "https://www." off of the front of each one so they should show as text instead of a video).

Part One:

youtube.com/watch?v=UDIJzYrMI7Q

 

Part Two:

youtube.com/watch?v=LkgQl1vjGDI

 

Part Three:

The website has received 57 pageviews, with a couple coming from Australia and Singapore, although most are from Canada and the US. I'm surprised by the number of people who visit my site! :D

Oops. I will update the forums section, I barely visit the ones I posted anymore. Can you add a smiley where there's a guy banging his head against a wall?

Cuz that's what I want to post right now. ;)

Hey Michael, I enjoyed scrolling through your site.  Can I please request a small change?

In your videos tab, at the bottom where it is written, "You can find part 2 and 3 at his channel.", can you please change it to "You can find part 2 and 3 on her channel."?   

 

Not many people realize I am girl, so no worries.  :D      lol

Grrr...... Google sites won't let me add meta tags to the site.

 

I think Weebly is better, so from now on, I'm making my sites on Weebly.

 

Update: I'm adding a blog to the site, but it's not finished yet. Stay tuned!

And do you guys think I should add adSense to my site? It'll make me a little bit of money, but I don't want people to see MMORPG ads on my site.

I don't think I'll release my blog until spring, since there's almost nothing about ants during the winter.

Alright, I haven't checked the view-tracker in a while, but when I checked it today, I was so surprised to find that it had views from every single continent on earth except for Antarctica!  :yahoo:
