webpage update, others stuff

[seperis]

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 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.

Tiny horses!

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

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

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!

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.

[ciaan]

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.

[ellixis.livejournal.com]

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.

[grey-bard.livejournal.com]

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

[miella]

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.

[that_mireille]

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.

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*

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.

*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.

[dalaire.livejournal.com]

^ 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. :^)

[out-there.livejournal.com]

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.
