Fansites Are Popping
A fanworks catch-up will be coming soon, but until then, news of Dariasites:
• We’ve added a link to Eccles’s growing Lawndale Sun-Herald fansite to the sidebar. He’d still like fanworks material for it!
• Kemical Reaxion has told us that her colorful, but now dormant, Glitter Berries site will soon be moved to a free Web-host service, so that it’ll remain readily accessible. She’ll let us know when the new location goes live.
• In the past week, I’ve stored the state-of-the-moment for Daria fansites, including the DFB and its HaloScan comments. Ten sites thus far, with a sub-site still to come. I’ll be glad to copy these, with their custom access menu, to your blank CD-R. If interested, e-mail me at the address in my profile.
• Scissors is also creating full Website archives (as are others). He’s making these compressed ZIP files, along with some of mine, available for download. (He’s getting clearances from Webmasters, when possible, and will soon be updating that page.)
• HSX, Scissors, and several others are collaborating on a new fansite, to be called Lawndale Online, and tentatively scheduled to debut on 9 July. It will use many of the Outpost Daria archives. They intend to provide abilities to self-upload, comment about, and rate fanworks. For details, see this PPMB thread or bookmark this Fandom Wiki entry.
• The Angst Guy plans more updates and tweaking for works stored on his site, which may soon have a contents page as well. I’ll bet this go-round will include the long-awaited, just-posted tenth installment of his “Pause in the Air” stories.
Oh, and our own site has a tweak at the top of the page, as well ...
