s i t e » frequently asked questions

It was about time that I wrote this. I receive many e-mails a day (more than 50 on average) and I run 8 websites, so it can be hard to catch up. Hence, me not responding too often. So, if you have a question, try looking for the answer here before e-mailing. ;)

Hi Johnny! Hi Orli! I love you! Can you send me an autograph?
This hasn't happened yet, but to make matters clear to begin with: I'm not, nor do I personally know Johnny Depp or Orlando Bloom. I wish I did though. That'd be grand.

What font did you use for the splash and title graphic?
The font is called P22 Cezanne Regular. It's a pay font. And no, I can't send it to you, or put it up here. 'Cause hey, not mine. And plus, I have a bad memory to keep track of requests!

I like your frames/layout. How did you do them, and can you send me the HTML?
Well, I do the HTML using (yes, I know, bad) a WYSIWYG editor. Either Dreamweaver, or AOLPress. AOLPress is already obsolete (1996!) and AOL doesn't offer it on it's site anymore. I recommend it for beginners. I still use it, due to the free cost, and decent features. You might try searching for a download site on Google.

Other than that, no, I can't send you the HTML. I use AOL for surfing the web, and it's upload feature is a pain in the arse. Besides that, it's better to learn and do it yourself. Trust me on this one.

What program did you use for the graphics?
Adobe Photoshop 5.0 and 7.0. Both over $500. Or.. you can try downloading a free trial version at www.adobe.com. If you want the full version, try KaZaa. They're both worth it.

Do you have (insert picture/song/etc here)? Can you e-mail it to me? Thanks!
The reason why I don't put up MP3s is that a) they take up a lot of space b) I'm not even supposed to have media files like that on my domain -- I get away with it sometimes, but other times I'm afraid they'll delete my files and c) they're bandwidth sucking fiends.

Also, not only does my AOL suck, but my FTP does too. Uploading large files like that takes hours. Try going on message boards to search for people who trade videos, or downloading Kazaa for episodes and MP3s.

I have a PoTC related clip. Can you put it on your site?
Sure! Just either upload it to your own webspace. Don't send it in a ZIP file to me, otherwise I can't download it. :)

How come the site hasn't been updated?
Okay, not as common a question, but had to put it in: I run other websites. Takes a while. :| Just please be patient and there will be an update!

____ is missing/not showing up. Can you tell me where I can find a copy, or send me it?
If there's something missing, bear with my fickle server. It's evil. Sometimes, no worky. If it's still not there after you've tried a couple minutes later, e-mail me and I'll fix it.
