Skie7778's Page



9/21/00 - Black or White

I got the buttons how I want them (at least for now). But, now I'm having trouble of wether to go black background, with white text. Or, white background with black text (found here). When I figure out a reason for this site, I'll be able to make some sort of banner and get rid of the whole "Skie7778's Page" thing. And, with a topic; I'll be able to create a FAQ as well. Well, at least, if people ask questions.

Look it's My Yahoo Board.


9/20/00 - Buttons

Well, the buttons are sorta a place holder, until I can find something better. The background has been changed on the message board, because it made pieces of the posts unreadable. I think I'll stick with a white background for now, and I'll probably start to archive these nice li'l updates. And, these ones will most likely be lumped together; because they aren't that important.


9/19/00 5:30AM - Looking Better

Well, I found a background I like. Been trying to invert the colors; but I had some problems there...It looks like I'll be sticking with the ProBoard for now. Blah blah blah. Now I just need a reason for the site.


9/19/00 - Day 2

I found that Yahoo/Geocities won't allow users to use CGI scripts. So, that scraps any ideas I had for a good message board. So now I have two choices. I can go with the Yahoo/Geocities board seen here. Or, there's the ProBoard board here. I'm leaning toward the ProBoard, because it's more customizable and tends to look better.

I still don't have much of an idea of what to do with my board, and am still learning a bit of HTML. I'll probably update the links section a bit. I might even start advertising this site around; see if anyone comes around, and maybe get some ideas (or help?) from them.


9/18/00 5:00 AM - I'm A Rip-Off.

I can't help it. And, I still haven't figured out what to do with this site. And, if you're wondering why there are multiple Epica 1452 links around. That's due to it was the only site in my links section with a button and a banner. Well, Anime on DVD had one as well; so that might end up here as well. Then again, I might get rid of the buttons. So to make a long story short... I still have no idea what to do.


9/18/00 4:30AM - Blue (Now Black & Red)

That's right, the text is going to be in blue. You may be saying; but everyone does either blue or green (and sometimes that cyan color); why don't you do something else. Well, here's the reason. Yellow doesn't look right; white looks so plain (although the updates might go white). Red makes my page look like the Epica 1452 Marchhammer page. Orange looks terrible on computers. Purple is still under debate. And that's about every color.

It's a shame. I just noticed something, my links are now indistinguisable from text. This means it looks like white text and blue links for now. Or maybe green with blue links, or blue with green links, or purple with blue links...or I'm undecided.

The blue didn't work It really started to annoy me, especially when I was trying to figure out what color to go with it. So it's back to white text, red links, and black background. It sorta reminds me of checkers. I could probably go with blue instead of red for the links; but I really like the red color I have. I'll just have to do something special with the background, or find some other way to set myself apart from that other red, black, and white page.


9/18/00 2:30AM - It Worked

That wasn't too hard. It seems to look alright (at least I think so). Sure, it's a bit simple; but I need to find a background I like. Plus, those links to the left will eventually be replaced by pics of some sort. A banner of some sort will come in, and blah blah blah. You probably aren't reading this, as I wouldn't be reading it if I were you.

Well, I plan to update the site... erhm ...as often as needed. What this means when the topic is still under debate; I don't know. If it ends up a fan site of some RPG; then I'll try to have it once a day. If it ends up something else, and I've got a few ideas. Some of these ideas, I don't know how'd I'd accomplish at this time, so they might get scrapped for that reason.

I just noticed something else, that geocities counter sucks! I'm the only person to have visited this site, and it's reading 43 people. What a POS.


9/18/00 - My First Update

Well, I'm not exactly sure what I want to do with this site. Which is pretty apparant since the name is 'Skie7778's Page'. I figure it will have something to do with role-playing games; buy beyond on that I'm not exactly sure. I figured it would be a good way to learn HTML, and try out some new things. I'll be looking for a message board to use. I like UBB and DCF (not sure if that second one is right)..

As soon as I solve the problem of what to do with this site, I'll update the FAQ section. It's pretty useless to attempt to set up a FAQ when you have no idea what your site is about. The links section is up an running (as much as a links section can be). It was definately one of the easier sections to set up.

It's very likely this update will be a bit old by the time you reach this site. This is more for me to test out some things, and babble (because that's what web pages are for) a bit.

Hopefully, this works out well, if not, then I'll go back in and edit some things.
