seperis | webpage update, others stuff

Yes. I really don't have anything better to do. But this is just a general PSA.

SV Slash recs page is fixed with the new http://smallville.slashdom.net addy--theoretically, I knew it was just a find/replace? *shakes head* Yeah. So for anyone who ran in there and promised me death--or you know, sent me email about it--all fixed here.

Second, over the weekend--sort of--coded and uploaded all of Strangerverse and two of the Teacher's Pet that I hadn't already had, including

miss_porcupine's Teacher's Pet: Lorne. I kind of debated seprating them onto their own page, but that was just, more typing! So not yet. And frankly, it's fine as is, so. Both can be found in their completion here.

*stares at webpage thoughtfully* Okay. I have always taken a great deal of satisfaction from the fact those pages are as simple as I can make them and still keep them readable. But thought. I've had this design for a few years. Should I change it? And into *what*? I was thinking something trendy yet personal--yellow text on a deep red background, with black accents. And scrolling text! And flashign things! Think bordello meets cyberpunk. y/n?

You can all actually tell I'm in the midst of avoiding something, can't you? Mmm. I'm also thinking that I should make a fulltime change to teh name seperis and be done with it--seriously, thought. Does anyone think of me as jenn or as seperis, if you have not gotten slightly drunk with me, stole the last two inches of my really awesome favorite drink ever, or wondered if I was going ot fall down the stairs in a very ungraceful heap wearing very high boots.

Um. Also, I still want a pony. The really ironic part is, our new intake coordinator *raises tiny horses*. They're like the size of great danes. My bitterness is legion here. You have no idea. Tiny horses!

Oh my god, miniature horses! There's supposed to be a farm in Texas where they are raised. By nuns. I -- I really want to go.

I'm in Texas! Where are these horse nuns?

Huh. That sounds odd. But OMG. Tiny horses. I want!

If I see them ever? I will send you *pictures*.

Close, I think because my sister wanted me to go. She sent me an article let me see if I can scrounge it up.

"Today, the nuns have become so successful in their horse-breeding enterprise that their home is known as the Monastery of Miniature Horses. The nuns, Franciscan Poor Clares who have supported themselves over the years here with a variety of animal enterprises -- they have raised cats and all manner of birds -- live on a 98-acre ranch here in Washington County between Houston and Austin... They now charge $3 for adults and $1 for children."

Google shows there's another one in... "Buda"? Which claims to be just south of Austin, but they aren't nuns, and also don't say anything about tours for people who don't want to buy one of their very own.

Monastery of Miniature Horses website: http://www.monasteryminiaturehorses.com/tours.htm

I have no idea where that is, since I can still only find Austin on a map because there's a star there.

It's--*waves*. Like, almost halfway between Austin adn Houston. I asked intake coordinator adn she has *been tehre* and indeed, there are both nuns and tiny horses.

This is so cute it actually hurts me inside. God. I have to *see this*.

*seconds that* One of these weekends, I'm going to.

...on a different topic, if you're interested, you might drabble over here (http://pentapus.livejournal.com/tag/doodledrabble2), because I'd love an excuse to draw, say, Teacher's Pet. *looks convincing* Or any of your WIPs, actually -- Oh god. Chibi Crimes Against Humanity. *brainache*

Right, I'll -- be over here. *wanders off, dazed*

Think bordello meets cyberpunk. y/n?

I think of you as both Jenn and Seperis. And reference you as both, when I'm talking to people and feel the need to mention something you wrote/posted/whatever.

I've always wanted a pony. Damn the world for thwarting me.

The universe is clearly against us all with the pony sitch.

Tiny horses!

Might I suggest using a name (http://www.utoronto.ca/webdocs/HTMLdocs/NewHTML/a_name.html) attribute? It'll link like so --

http://rfp.livejournal.com/3772.html#rentboy

(That way you can put off making another page for even longer...)

Maybe *forever*...

*starry eyes*

Hee hee. Isn't it great!

Does anyone think of me as jenn or as seperis

Yes. If it makes sense, I kind of think of you as both. Jenn Seperis, except not as though it's your last name. :-)

I want to see the tiny horses!

*thoughtful* That makes sense.

Also, God, if I can get her to give me pics....

Jenn Seperis, except not as though it's your last name. :-)

Same here. :-)

If you do change the layout, please no yellow on red. That's just hard to read. (I tried it. Not so much fun.)

And I think of you as seperis, because I don't actually know you as jenn.

*nods* Cool. I've alwasy been curious. Seperis became an accidental pseudonym, so I've always wondered how much it's me now. *g*

I certainly don't know you, but I think of you as Jenn, because that was the name I got used to seeing on your fic long before I ever heard of your LJ.

I was thinking that might be the case, esp for people who read me before lj or before they knew I had an lj.

Thank you!

Yup, blame the SSA.

Another vote for please, no yellow on red. I am very much in love with simple black on white or grey on white; it is elegant and not eyesearing.

Not knowing you personally, and knowing you mostly by way of LJ, I do think of you as seperis most of the time.

*g* Awesome.

Also, God, white is so easy to maintain. It goes with everything! I still tremble in memory of the days I had picture backgrounds. *shivers*

Eugh. I grew out of that stage long ago myself.

(deleted comment)

Ooh, correction, that one's by serafina.

http://www.smallville.slashdom.net/archive/32/lexluthor.html

Oh god soooo bad!!!!!!!

*blush*

I'm so sorry about that!!

Call me old fashioned, but I *like* the simple design.

*thoughtful* I do too. It's very easy to update.

Randomly, I think of you as "jenn/seperis," or, occasionally, as "Seperis Jenn." Point is, it's both, not one or the other.

Also, I always wanted a miniature horse when I was a kid. I wasn't as keen on ponies. Unless they were Shetland.

They're so--I mean, without context? They look like regular horses! Then you see, like, their heads on level with human hips!

*pathetic* I wnat one. The rabbits would love him! Really!

I think of you as Jenn Seperis, because of the first place I knew you, where there were two Jenns. Otherwise, I think it'd just be "Jenn, whose LJ name is

seperis.

Only I'd like to think that I'd remember to close my quotation marks.

Ooh, tha'ts true, I forgot about that!

Huh. I cannot (and haven't been able to for awhile) get illuminated text to open for me. Not even remotely. Not even with creative jiggling of the domain name. Nope. I just get an error. *yearns for the stories*

You're *kidding*.

*blinks*

I--have never heard of this before. I will check our site and--well, I have no idea, I'll try to find otu what is happening.

Nope. Not kidding - can't even get through glitterati or any of the adjunct parts. When it had the problems a month ago? I think it started then. No server I've tried in my city has worked, although if I go upstate I can access it.

Personally, I like simpler pages without graphics and flashing and blinking. And if it's black text on white background, it can be read at work and nobody knows you're not doing something official. Most of the time. However, a nice background change and new color of text does wonders for the re-decorating gene that seems to exist in most of us.

I may just change up all my link colors to green or red or something new. Just to get a little newness in there.

I was thinking something trendy yet personal--yellow text on a deep red background, with black accents. And scrolling text! And flashign things! Think bordello meets cyberpunk. y/n?

*whimper* Those of us who suffer from chronic headache say "no". I have some cool little "zap" buttons that turn off all the headache-inducing colours and flashes on any website, but I like that I don't have to do that on your website.

*grins* I am kinder than that. And also, I swer, red background? Never.

maybe just change the links, though. Hmm.

^ Ditto, Luthien

I get the itch to change my pages every year, add new bells and whistles. In the end, though, simple and easy to read always wins. My only thing is that I like a darkened background when I'm reading a long fic on the screen.

I know how it is to grow into a pseudonym, and I've grown very fond of Seperis, but you'll always be Jenn to me. First impressions. :^)

it's very bizarre when I think about it--I don't think most people accidnetlaly acquire a psuedonym due to needing a livejouranl. though I'd guess in ljland, that would be more often. *grins*

I think of you as Jenn, but I think that's a carry-over from your blog. (Um, maybe? I'm fairly sure you wentby Jenn more often back in... oh, god, 2001. I swear, thinking back on fandom makes me feel *old* and I'm totally not.)

But if I mention a story or an interesting thought you had to someone else, I refer to you as Seperis so you might as well go with that.

(Mind you, I had this whole author name/identity issue about 18 months ago, and settled on Annie. And these days? I wished I'd taken

thete1's advice and gone with out_there. It's what I use most now.)

Gawd, and I used to be so horsecrazy as a girl, too. And then we moved out to the sticks and my parents bought the property out back from the bank and I was in high school and suddenly realized that I'd outgrown the horsey thing and the ratio of horsey-adoration to willingness-to-care-for-a-high-maintenance-pet had shifted unfavorably to the, "I don't want a horse anymore, Dad," side of the column. But lord, wee horses like that...

And I think of you as Seperis in large part because, being a Jennifer myself, whenever I get handed an alternate name for someone else named Jennifer (or some variant thereof) I tend to cling to it.
