APRIL 17, 2001 – FINALLY! NO BANNERS! BETTER, FASTER SERVER TOO! PRAISE GOD! "IT IS FINISHED"!


History of "Petrafied" (AND .NET)


MAY 9, 2025

v10.0 – The first update and redesign in almost 22 years!!! I finally decided to take my nearly defunct website off ipage hosting (which I wasn't paying for anymore but somehow the site still worked even though the domain was essentially parked). It's now being hosted on my home thin client "web server". I plan on keeping this site in perpetuity forever well past the day Petra is long forgotten (which hopefully will never happen!) Believe it or not, they are still doing reunion tours in 2025 with some shows STILL on the calendar! Will they ever release any new material? We'll see...


MAY 26, 2003

v9.0 – The best version yet! Much stuff I haven't posted that I changed. New menu on the left, and no more frames! Also, I changed the discography section to a more simple, user friendly design.


NOVEMBER 10, 2001

v8.0 – The whole site is COMPLETELY REDONE. New menu, new site theme, more content.


APRIL 18, 2001

v7.1 – Add "Typeface" coding to band members of discography. Also used "real" stars for rating. :)


APRIL 17, 2001

v7.0 – Petrafied.NET "banner-less" VERSION! complete and ready for competing at the Fine Arts Festival. Cost = $92/yr. ALSO moved the whole website to 50megs.com server, which is much faster and has 3.3× more space than the Geocities one. That also has the banner taken off, so there are absolutely no banners anywhere! PRAISE GOD!


APRIL 16, 2001

v6.99 – Redid the whole discography "target" page due to page problems, and fixed "menu" bug (menu goes below or above the button instead of over it).


APRIL 15, 2001

v6.75 – Redid the "latest news" section.


APRIL 13, 2001
