Tomorrow's my first day at the new job so that equals anxiety today! I made my site a bit more CSS friendly, opting for an elastic layout. I hated how much space the vertical menu took up so I replaced it with a horizontal one. I made it for 1024x768 or higher, so it should be good for most. It can still be used at 800 x 600, though parts of the page banner become like "Easter Eggs." I made Zarkon quip stuff in the right part of the banner, hehe.

I redid the LV Season Plot so it was more Zarkon's POV. I also did a bit on my Gallery (Man, do I have lots to put on there still). My fifth challenge songfic is up, and I put my "retired" Doom icons on the Fun page so they are up for grabs for anybody who wants them.

I haven't put my guestbook up again, but I hope to get to it soon. I don't think anyone will have trouble seeing the changes but if you don't see 'em, hit the good ol' refresh bar.

One thing I did on a couple of pages was test Gallery2's Image Block function: you can reference a picture or album elsewhere on your site. For example, where I have Cheezey's guest fanfic I have a block that links to her gallery of art on my site, and each time you visit the page, it shows a different one from it. Pretty cool, once I figured out how to do it.

I hope it looks good enough on other's browsers. If anyone has a problem seeing something or if format is off, let me know.

The site has been updated again. The Gallery has about 2000 screenshots now: a bit behind on the Voltron DVD set, and with the Golion DVDs out, the "special" scenes may need a place in my Gallery.

A small update with one fanfic.

Nice updates! I enjoyed browsing your gallery.

Ky, might I borrow a few of these screenshots for Caption This and give you credit for the borrow? I would not link to your site, only borrow and upload my saved copy to my photobucket acct. If no, totally cool. I just loved a few of them and I can ONLY imagine what the minions will do with them.

Sure, take as many for the captions as you want, or for personal use. I figured categorizing them would be fun for moments like these

Oh, thanks for reminding me AlluraP, because I meant to ask Ky about using his photo manips for the Captions on the other site.

You can use them as well, just note you got them from my site, just so I can average 1 visitor a day on my traffic stats, lol. I noticed your pronoun: believe it or not, I'm a girl. Just so ya know

Thanx, I'll do that. My bad about getting the pros mixed up. What was I thinking? Guess u'll have to superpoke me on myspace for that one. Look for G-Iris.

Not a problem. It's happened from time to time on this board, never quite sure why. Maybe the idea of a female Zarkon fan is too scary

First off, and slightly OT... your avatar earns a hearty LOL! That's hilarious!

If it's any consolation, people online tend to think I'm a guy too, at least until they find out I'm married to Coldwin. The funny thing is it happens more in the Thundercats fandom where I don't have a site done in character by a male character, as opposed to here in the Voltron fandom where I'm the online voice of Cossack on my page. Heck even back when I played EverQuest (and a female dark elf at that) people assumed I was a guy playing a girl and one even warned Coldwin that I was probably really a man and not to get too involved with me (we already lived together at the time so that was quite funny).

It might be that you're the online voice of Zarkon who's definitely not a feminine character... but for all his scales and big ears, he is the king, and at least one woman wants him pretty bad... whether he likes it or not.

Ah yes . . . Zarkon getting in touch with his more feminine side. So pretty . . .




Brilliant avatar Ky!

LOL! That is quite ironic.

Maybe. You really think I'm the online voice of Z, though? That probably qualifies as both a good and bad thing, haha. It's amazing what watching Voltron right after that stupid Care Bears movie 7 years ago did to me. I have to admit, being a fan of ugly mean villains is so much fun: the obscurity makes it cool

BTW, you were talking about Hagar right? I always like to state I am a fan, not a fangirl every so often: it's strange how in some fandoms, if you're female and like a character, it's automatically assumed you want to boink said character (eww). The idea of a Zarkon fangirl scares the friggin' crap out of even me (besides, Hagar hates competition )

I'm glad you both like the avatar. How great is that shot of Lotor? He's just trying to convince himself that kind of behavior isn't hereditary!

Yup, I meant everyone's favorite witch!

And that is a funny shot of Lotor. What episode is it from?

It's from the Centipede Express ep. It's from when the slave maneuvers the cannon into the Doom base. Lotor's clutching his head to protect himself from the falling debris as his grits his teeth.Somehow my PC got a good still of the scene that when reduced doesn't have the shaking artifact.
