All ye Ficathoners...

[icarus]

And speaking of Percy Ficathon websites... look what lizardspots made for us.

Pure Percyness.

Every time I look at it, I like it more and more. *g* The sweater... (yeah, I share switchknife's love of schoolboy uiforms). Also thank you to singtoangels for offering to do a much better splash page than I can manage *blushes* (er, if she forgives my Molly-like handwringing and worry, I'm in over my head), and switchknife for helping with the Google search code, idiotparade and hp_femme for their expertise on eFiction and PHP, as well as iteag, florahart, stiletto, sevter, and misspince for cheerfully offering to help code.

Now I have a question. I would like to house all the Ficathon stories on the site, but it wasn't a condition of the original challenge. Is there anyone who objects to having their story on the site?

Don't worry, chicken, I just had to take a bit of a hiatus from LJ world to get some stuff done. I'm still working on Percy goodness for the site and everything. I'm thinking that if whoever gets the php going, then we could use lizardspots fantabulous artwork for the graphics of the actual site. We could have him running down the side and perhaps some quote and everything across the top. It would be preeeetty.

But yes, still fiddling. Trying to keep it clean and simple when my brain says: pretty colours and squiggles! heh

Why can't I have my Percy fic now? ::pouts:: I'm hungry.

*Enormous sigh of relief.* I reread all my hand-wringing and worrying and thought, "how incredibly ungracious of me!" I'm very sorry, I just grew attached to the site amazingly quickly.

My thought is that PHP is over my head (I'm having enough trouble trying to download Gimp - it's just not working), so I'd better stick with HTML which is like a foreign language in which I know enough words to get by.

At this point I'm copying sites that I like and hoping I do it right. The main danger is setting up something that functions in one browser but not another, and my doing it in a way that is ponderous and inefficient. I should probably ask dien for help. :)
