site...

If you're really interested in reading about various stuff about the site; the name, my history, or the layout... feel free to read along. However, I can't promise you won't get bored! :D

the name

The name comes from a lyric from the song When I Get Home, You're So Dead, by my favorite band Mayday Parade! I really loved the phrase, thought it was unique, so I used it.

the history

I've known about fanlistings since 2004, in that year I began to join a lot of them. Mostly Harry Potter related. In late 2006, I applied to run my first fanlisting. It was an adoption. I never finished it, because I have it back to it's previous owner. From late 2006 to early 2007, I'd apply for listings, but never finish them. It wasn't until mid 2007 that I actually became serious, and finished the fanlistings I had been approved to build. I had my own domain at the time, so I hosted it there. The domain was evantually hacked and died. In mid July, Angie offered me a lovely home. I moved (most of) my listings in here. However, it took me a long time to get my actual collective up. I got my collecitve up in November of 2007. That was my home for almost a year. :) Until on June 13, 2008, Haley decided to be amazingly generous and buy me my own domain! I can never thank her enough!

the layout

The layout was fully designed in Photoshop CS3 and coded in XHTML/CSS by Haley. The layout features the cast of Gossip Girl, and the image came from BlakeLivelyWeb.com.
