All ye Ficathoners...

And speaking of Percy Ficathon websites... look what [livejournal.com profile] lizardspots made for us.

Pure Percyness.

Every time I look at it, I like it more and more. *g* The sweater... (yeah, I share [livejournal.com profile] switchknife's love of schoolboy uiforms). Also thank you to [livejournal.com profile] 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 [livejournal.com profile] switchknife for helping with the Google search code, [livejournal.com profile] idiotparade and [livejournal.com profile] hp_femme for their expertise on eFiction and PHP, as well as [livejournal.com profile] iteag, [livejournal.com profile] florahart, [livejournal.com profile] stiletto, [livejournal.com profile] sevter, and [livejournal.com profile] 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?

On a quick note, I used CSS for my site (http://lizard.brandim.net). See the pretty text and fancy headers? The customised scroll bars? All with CSS.

CSS is your friend.... :)

Nice, and nice and simple. I like the fact that I don't have to have that font you used for your title installed.

I just asked Mad Maudlin above how the CSS worked, because I expected to see a pile of code at the top defining the stylesheets but... where do you define the fonts et al for each tag?

*Puzzled Icarus*

Okay, I get it. I haven't used stylesheets yet, but I do have a new working version of the site (http://www.percyfest.muse-wanted.com) up.
