Sorry to be away, kiddies, but with RL (trust me, you do NOT want to know) and my new little project which is working my last good nerve, time has been short.

Now I have written up new descriptions for the "New And Improved Meet The Folks" page. Thing is, I've been kicking around organization on it so it anyone has anything to say about it, ideas, what works, what doesn't chime in. I've used the list of characters that I'm going to post and also load into memories. How should it be grouped? Original canon? Pittsburgh? NYC? Dunraven?

It had been so long, I figured I'd better see if I could find my way  back here. And see if there was any work to be done.  Nope. *waves*

For either helping to maintain/upload to the archive (but I'll have to have some training), or to make icons as needed. I've been addicted to it lately, and think I'm getting pretty good, although I can't make animated ones yet (although I'd love to learn!)

Check out my userpics (the ones towards the end) to see what I can do. I'll put one of my favorites on this post.

We are up to 130 members of the fanlisting for the P/CP journals.

That is all. (GRIN!)

The current New York State Lotto Jackpot is fanlisting count is 125 members.

Thank you!

Hello everyone!

Back on the internet and on a (thank god!) high speed connection. Jen - thanks for watching over the fanlisting for me during my hiatus!!!

Em

randall's traveling and whining at me but I whine at him all the time so I can't bitch way too much...oh who am I



but... can we somehow get an icon of Brian's and justin's clasped hands?

I have a small request - i will be offline for the most part until August 21 - that's when we move to our new (larger) apartment. Can someone keep an eye on the fanlisting for me for the next 4 weeks or so? I will be back online on August 21, but until then I can't guarantee how often and for how long I will be able to get on the net.

Thanks a bunch...I will catch y'all in about 3 weeks or so!

You may have noticed I uploaded several icons of Alan Rickman as Fauntleroy. Ran and Cael decided on him to play Fauntleroy back when the character was first introduced. (You'll find my icons of him in the Dunraven Society album in the icon gallery.)

Anyway, Cael wants some icons of Fauntleroy and Justin together. I'll do some as soon as I can, but thought I'd throw it to you all too.

He wants one of blond Jude Law (Wren) and dark haired Orlando Bloom (Sean) together. I'll work on one when I get a chance, but figured together we could give him several to choose from.

If anyone wants/needs any of the blond Jude Law pics I have, just let me know.

I've been wanting a way to more easily archive the journals, as well as make them available off LJ if LJ is effed up (there have been a number of complaints on Randall's list about it)... Amanda, Randall & I - and kind of Cael, though she never really said for sure - all basically agreed we didn't want to move the journals off LJ. They're too well established there and it would mean tons of extra work. But since we all know I like making extra work for myself, I did this:

http://bj.irishcaelan.com/journal/

It uses Movable Type for the formatting, meaning I don't have to do hardly any html coding - I do have to hand code the icons and mood icons, but that's all. You just copy and paste everything into a nice little form, and voila - you have an entry. And it keeps them all in order (as long as you put in the correct date and time) and it auto-archives the messages. I went back and entered everything since June 1st, so unless Amber just desperately wants to keep doing the archives the way she has been, she only needs to finish May and that's it. Amber - if you want to help me with the new archives, that'd be great. It'll still be a little work, but totally different - and I think much easier - than before.

I thought about having Ran & Cael post directly to this journal, since I can set it up to auto-send the posts to LJ or to pretty much anywhere or anyone, but I don't want them to have to deal with the icons and stuff - that's so much easier on LJ. So I - and whoever wants to volunteer - will enter them. If anyone has experience using Movable Type, that'd be a huge bonus.

Amber - I wasn't trying to put you out of a job or anything, it's just that I knew there was an easier way to do it. It doesn't have the different colors for Brian posts and Justin posts, but then neither does LJ when you're reading everything on one writer's friends page.

I really want everyone's feedback on this... take a look at the site and tell me what you think. I may still jazz it up a bit graphics-wise, but I'm pretty happy with the formatting, and very happy about the ease of use.

Okay, I'm done now. How is everyone anyway? ::waves to the sweat shop team::

P.S. to Cael - we are not sweathogs... I ain't no Vinnie Barbarino, and I certainly ain't no Arnold Horshack... Oohoohoohooh! I could be persuaded to do be Beau DeLaBarre though... not that anyone but me remembers him...

I've updated, but the May files have fucked up royally. I've played around with it for a while, and while the coding I have on my files in front of me looks ok, when I upload it is doing something strange. Hmm. I'd keep trying things out but I don't have time tonight.

I thought I'd post here first - if I don't hear from you I'll email you both. Not sure how much help it will be to look at the links, since they have the screwed up coding. Need me to email you the source files as text files?
http://bj.irishcaelan.com/archives/may1.html
http://bj.irishcaelan.com/archives/may2.html

(Go on.. tell me it's just my puter being a dick and it works for you).

Oh, and can you add the May2 link on the index page? I could do it now that you shown me how, but all things considering I don't think I should... lol.

It's official folks....we now have 100 members of the B/J LJ Fanlisting.

Thought I would share!

Em

I So need to learn how to do screencaps

the day from hell has just gotten worse.

ani icon of Justin in the 402 shaking wet head scene - but no brian - HELP!!!!

Randall is on the road for a while and prob on dial up so you're all stuck with me, lol.

need a naked justin icon asap - from 403. will try to do it myself, but I need to get the caps first. - eek. needs must post, Randall will hurt me bad!

and never check to see where I'm posting before I hit 'update journal', let's see where this ends up.

icon needed, though not immediately but it has to be very special -

depicts the phrase "The Motion of Light In Water." Be very creative.

That is all and thanks for listening...

Archives updated.

Jen, can you add the links for May on the index page? I've decided I don't even want to touch it.. LOL

A.

Not that it should come as a surprise. LOL

In the 'I obviously don't know how to prioritize but I don't care 'cause it was fun' category, I just added 55 new icons to the B/J LJ Icon Gallery.

Other roles not yet cast (unless Ran & Cael already have someone specific in mind, which they might...):

Aunt Delores/Persia
"Mother"
Ike & Naomi
Hanrahan (unofficially being played by Christopher Meloni, unless Ran & Cael made it official)

Terri is being played by Brian Molko.
Wren is being played by a blond Jude Law.

BTW, you can vote on icons you like. Just click on the image you like to bring up its individual page that has various info about it - scroll down to the row of stars, and click on whichever set of stars you want to give it. 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. You can leave comments too - and joy of joys - even add smilies to the comments! Isn't that just the greatest?? LOL

As for me, I'll be offline for the next couple of hours or so installing my new ATI 128 mb Radeon All-In-Wonder 9600 graphics card! Yay me!! Just what I needed... another reason to sit in front of my computer. 'Cause now I'll be able to watch TV (and capture video clips and screen caps) on my 'puter. Why does it come with a remote control though...? LOL

Later gang!
