Not really sure what good it'll do you, but here's the full resolution I scanned it at:

I can't make out what it says under the "Flemoidus Maximus" bit beyond aka, do you happen to remember what it says?

Also, more importantly, it looks like the site recreation is down for the moment.

Is there a download of the reconstructed .htm files somewhere in this thread?  The original links aren't working.

If I recall correctly webs accounts get "frozen" when they get too many views, I think if you come back in a couple of months you'll find that they're working again (hopefully).

Hey guys.  I'm in the process of finding a different host to upload the site to.  I've got all the files still.  Should be up by the end of next week.

The previous post contains a large spread of win.

Since said site was never made public to the best of my knowledge, nor were the color scans, all we have to work with are the original grayscale scans of the pages and the incomplete source code posted here as WWW.CHEXQUEST.COM.zip. The bios page was missing some content right in the same area as the missing page in the greyscale scans, specifically the bios and full-body pictures of Generals Puffer and Breakfaust. Fortunately, Dank posted the missing bios on the Chex Quest Wikia (though I of course have no way to verify them, they seem legitimate). I added them both back into the webpage with some simple html editing. Also, Boingo the Clown had a groupshot of Loops, Puffer, Breakfaust, and Wheet in his TUCQV6.WAD, which I was able to blow up and crop into profile pictures, though the background makes them contrast with the others' pics.

To see the patched bios page in full, download the webpage source code from the link in celebi23's original post, http://www.mediafire.com/?mjj21gimikg , then unzip it, then in the src folder add the two images I have attached here to it and replace its bios.htm with my attached edited one. Then open bios.htm in a web browser to see the bios.

This is great, thank you!
