So I'm sure most everyone has noticed by now the PlayStation trophy thing I have at the top of my blog. As of last weekend I am now the proud owner of that site. The original owners were having some troubles keeping it up and were burnt out from working on it. So after handing over a large sum of cash through PayPal to people I didn't know and then giving my logins and passwords to a friend I never met before I now own a mildly successful website!
I first came to the site at the request of one of the old owners to help out. I had complained about how ugly their card design was and he told me if I hated it so much come and make it better. I spent hundreds of hours making custom backgrounds for probably 300+ PlayStation 3 games. I also volunteered much of my time helping organize and track our efforts. Once the site went up for sale I decided to go for it and see if I can keep it alive and make it better.
The site is www.YourGamerCards.net and it is basically a trophy tracking site with reviews, guides, new and other stuff. For those not into gaming a trophy is something you earn when accomplishing different feats in a game. It's extremely addicting and there are tons of people who love tracking their trophies and keeping tabs on what everyone else is earning. We track the most users in the world >150,000 of them and are the #1 trophy site by far. Even Guinness wanted us to verify trophy related records for them! It's super exciting and hopefully it will work out great. If you have any interest at all in gaming, the PS3 or trophies go check it out.
