PT Collective Updates

I discuss updates to all of my websites.

Hey. I had a great idea just now. I have decided to upload video clips to the Young Royals site on Tripod, in addition to my magazine scans. I have loads of new magazine scans, but the only scanner in the house is on the main computer, and the main computer is almost always occupied. I desperately need a scanner. My grandfather was going to bring a scanner, but I think he might have changed his mind.

Absolutely Fabulous has a new layout. Turns out that the new templates ARE customizable. The layout on this site may change soon. I like this kind better, because the links are at the top of the screen. I like that, so that one can visit those sites after reading the latest post.

My Diaryland diary is dead. I still have an account with them, but the diary has disappeared. I arranged to have it regenerated in an hour, so maybe it will be fixed. Not like it really matters, cos I never post there anymore. Same goes for my Easyjournals. I had two - Impossible Princess and my default username one. I believe they both work. Scratch that, Impossible Princess doesn't work anymore. I don't remember the password. Oh well.

My Blurty is dead too. Won't update that anymore. But my Live Journal is alive and kicking. I will not post the address here, because it is private. Yes, I am lame.

I need to update my MSN group, so I will go do that now.

In case anyone was wondering, you will need to apply for membership to my MSN group. I was threatened with a lawsuit concerning an individual named Ann Claire Van Shaick and I decided to remove the offending material. I then decided to control the amount of people who viewed the site, so in order to view it, you will need to follow these steps:

1. Sign into MSN Groups using your MSN passport. If you don't have one, then sign up for one.

2. Go to the MSN link on this page to view the group. Instead of viewing the main page, you will be prompted by MSN Groups to supply a username and password. If you are signed in, then it will prompt you to apply for membership.

3. Once membership is approved by me, you will get an e-mail that will basically tell you that your application was approved. Then you will be able to sign in, post messages on the message board, add pics and documents and view all pages.

I usually approve all applications. Any spammers will be banned.

So that is the status on the MSN group. I haven't updated any of the other sites. The Sailormoon site is in dire need of work. I want to make it a static website, but first clean things up, finish the profiles (I haven't worked on the Tuxedo Mask profile in four or five years now) and upload a nice, universal, clean layout that will look good in any resolution and on any browser.

I will make SM related graphics and wallpapers, though. There will be a non-static section, but the rest of it will just remain static. I still watch Sailormoon every now and then (I am watching a DVD right now) but I have other interests, and there are millions of SM sites that are much better than mine. I think my Young Royals MSN group and page are one of a kind - for the most part, I have content other sites and communities don't have. I like having a unique page, not a page that is a carbon copy of so many other pages (not that I actually copied from any page, but I am talking about basic information and such).

So that is it, basically. And on the MSN group I had a few nice words about the 3rd anniversary of the terrorist attacks in the US and the six-month anniversary of the attacks in Madrid.
