22.11.03. Done a little bit of fic rec link tweaking. Changed mind, and checked all the fic links. Many were missing. Damn all people who move their stories.

19.09.02 Huzzah! Am online again. Updated recs pages

02.09.02 Uploaded new, improved site. Have now joined the wonderful world of XHTML/CSS. A few pages even validate. Woo.

30.08.02 Fiddled with this page & ficrecs so they're now readable in Opera, which is apparently not very forgiving. Replaced every single soddin' link so the site is now readable in Netscape, which is even less forgiving. But will mean less work in future, so blessing in disguise.

29.08.02 Updated ficrecs information to include WIP blurb. Blah blah fishcakes. Also updated recs page.

28.08.02 Subscribed to netstats thingamebob

26.08.02 Updated recs page

18.08.02 Updated recs page

16.08.02 Changed "theme" (!) from monstermovies to fang (Lost Boys)

15.08.02 Added Lost Boys screencaps to gallery pages. Removed Lucy Lawless gallery & Eliza Dushku gallery. Men's and women's pages now have four galleries apiece. Because, yes, I am an obsessive compulsive freak. Also did my laundry, but you don't care about that, do you.

09.08.02 Added more recs. Am considering adding other things. Possibly.

08.08.02 Added more recs.

07.08.02 Added more recs. Decided to underline all authors' names on the recs pages. Yes, I am that bored. Added Walk of Shame (the Sorority Boys archive) to fictionarchives.html (archives list on fiction page). And noted that, woo! WoS has been updated. Moved scrapbook from strange fruit to the fiction page, which seems a more logical place for it. Added a separaror (stars.gif) to the recs pages to deliniate one day's recs from the next (in lieu of dating every recommendation). It might show people which recs are the most recent. Failing that, it looks pretty.

04.08.02 Jude Law gallery got the axe, in favour of Jeremy Irons. Dumped the misc male gallery, Nsync and keanu and river (sniff). Moved Viggo Mortensen and Sean Bean into new fotr gallery, along with Orlando Bloom and Elijah Wood. Updated the pictures in Elijah's 'Sprats' gallery. Went back to the original name 'All growed up' for the Sprats gallery, because it sounds a little less stupid. Restored Jude Law to fill Sean Bean's place in Brits gallery until I can find a better candidate.

02.08.02 Updated fic recs. Created 'scrapbook' in Strange Fruit as a snippet blog and store for bunnies, favourite poems, quotes, randomalia etc. Strictly not a diary. No suffering through the flatulation of my Great Aunt Hilda.

01.08.02 Removed quotes.html (will replace eventually), updated splash page, created 'new' graphic (are you impressed?). Replaced Kevin Spacey gallery with Josh Hartnett. Sorry Kev. Replaced Eliza Dushku with Rachel Weisz. Decided I liked Eliza too much and put her back in, replacing Sarah Michelle Gellar, who's far too blonde. Replaced Christina Ricci in the Pretty Maids gallery with Lucy Lawless. Ricci is still in the sprats gallery. Complete changeover in the miscellaneous women gallery, changed one picture in Matthew McConaughey gallery. Replaced Callum Keith Rennie with Viggo Mortensen. Whew, tired now.
What do you call a fruit that stays up late to study for tests?
A cramberry.

31.07.02 Added fiction recommendations page. Added Christian Bale to Brits gallery and removed Bettany, Sewell, Purefoy, Cooper and Miller until I can get better pictures of them. Changed over Ewan McGregor pictures. Added the 'HP collection' to the gallery pages.

29.07.02 Updated graphics to monstermovie theme. Added more archives to fictionarchives. Tweaked typos. Changed link names on gallery page. Removed hosted fiction, Faith wallpapers and The Skulls screencaps. Retired Vin Diesel and replaced with Matthew McConaughey, who gets altogether more nekkid.
