Zelda World was founded in 2003 by Toby (previously known as Y-Bot).
History
Zelda World's history dates back to early 2003 when the webmaster, Toby, was starting to learn HTML and web design.
Version 1
Early 2003 to 15th December 2003
The first version of Zelda World was designed in early 2003. It featured a fixed-width three-column layout with a purple color scheme. As the site had just started, it did not have any content apart from a few news updates.
Version 2
15th December 2003 to 29th January 2006
After much delay and a temporary shutdown of the site, version 2 was created. This version also had a fixed-width layout, but used blues for its color scheme. Version 2.0 was coded in Macromedia Dreamweaver, but version 2.1 and 2.2 optimized the layout and were hand-coded. During the period of version 2.1, Zelda World moved into the Zelda Central hosting network.
Version 3
29th January 2006 to July 2006
Version 3 of Zelda World was the first to sport a fully scalable layout. It also used a blue color scheme, although the colors were brighter than those seen in version 2. Version 3.1 introduced a new design for the news system, and the site started to become a more reliable source for news.
Version 4
July 2006 to early 2007
Originally, version 4 was going to be a version 3.2 with a few layout tweaks, but it turned out to have a whole new design and color scheme of greens and yellows. Version 4.1 brought some layout tweaks and a few new features.
Death
In late 2006, the staff of Zelda World started working on a secret project that would ultimately replace Zelda World. It was a new site, 5 Rupees, and was launched in early 2007, effectively leaving Zelda World closed down. However, 5 Rupees also died after about a month of operation, and Zelda World was never picked back up by Toby.
