Well I wanted to post something to get the previous post off the top of this page because I didn’t want something like that being on display so long. The issue in that post is still a problem (seriously, the competetiveness with fansites – a couple of mine in particular – is insane at the moment) but I’m leaving it for now. I feel a(nother) long fansite rant coming soon, but for now … I just want to plug my new Isabel Lucas tfl.org Approved Fanlisting! I love Isabel so much, and I’m so happy to have her fanlisting! Join it – she’s amazing!!
Quick plugs to April and Lisa who are voices of sanity in a sea of absolute crazy fansite-ness. I dont know whether that sentence even makes sense, but you know what I mean right? 
I was going to post this yesterday but I decided to hold it off for a while because I really, really don’t want all this drama again. But now, I’m not going to wait.
I’m getting really p****d off at people stealing my content. It happened a few months ago and we thankfully got it sorted out, but it’s happening again now with another site. I’m not going to say which site but …. let’s just say I was hoping that there would be no drama or competetiveness with my new site. Unfortunately, this is going too far now. Half of their style section is practically a complete rip-off of my Kate Style section, and now they’ve re-done their ‘Interact’ section, and I thought I was visiting my own site – it’s practically my Interact section slightly, slightly re-worded. That’s another thing – wording and stuff … although maybe I am being paranoid there. And some of their new Filmography pages are set-up just like mine too.
I’m just so annoyed. To start with, this site did perfectly well and was obviously popular before, and it still is now, so why bother copying my siteS. Secondly, it is so obvious! I can count on one hand the number of sites these days that have in depth content and a large Interact/Fans section … I don’t see Adoptions, Caption This, Why Do You Like…, java games etc. on any sites these days (unless I am missing a large batch of sites that do, and if I am please let me know!), so when I see practically everything I have on my sites on another site then it makes me suspicious.
I loooove in depth content and lots of it, and I’m not saying that I’m the only one that does – absolutely no way – but like I said, seeing everything from my sites replicated somewhere else is something else.
Of course, saying “my content” may seem a bit silly because it’s not like I created it out of nowhere … however, like I said, it is pretty original especially these days because no-one else really has this stuff.
If the owner of the site in question wants to contact me about this then I would really like that so we can sort it out. This problem disappoints me because the owner seems like a really sweet person and we seem to like a lot of the same things. However, today has just made me really annoyed :/
I can’t stop looking at my collective *lol* I’ve cut down on sites and it feels good! Goran is about to be deleted, Anna has been abandoned (not really by choice, which I may post about later) and Kyra is going too. Which leaves 6! And 2 upcoming – but those upcomings are in the distant future. I’ve been considering dropping Naomi and Sienna too, but I can’t quite do that yet Wow … having 4 fansites would be nice *sighs* That’s all!

Isabel Lucas Online is finally fully open! I’ve worked hard on it, and I’m quite pleased with what’s there at the moment. Although as always, there’s still stuff to do I’m in love with the layout, hehe!
I’m at a bit of a crossroads with my fansites at the moment. I have too many and I honestly can’t keep up with them all. I keep waiting for the time when I’ll have finished all assignments/exams, real life will be calm, and I’ll have time to work on my sites … but that time never seems to come, and I think I just have to make do with the time I have. And having so many sites doesn’t let me use that time well. I also don’t like that I have so many sites. Although at the same time I do feel kinda proud at who I do have sites for – I think they all deserve a tribute online and I want to make that tribute worthy of them. I know all fansites owners say their celeb is great and deserving though, haha
But I feel I need to cut back. Trouble is, I’ve never actually closed a site and I get too attached to them. I just can’t bring myself to close anything.
Nicole and Kate are definitely staying. They are my ‘babies’ – I really really love Kate, and although I am not too keen on Nicole as she is now, I think I’ve found motivation for that site again and I am going to make myself return it to how it used to be! LOL. Isabel is a keeper – I’m wondering whether when the site is open and online I’ll lose interest as I have with others, but only time will tell. Hopefully the site will fare well alongside the many other sites for her. I just need to open the damn thing now!!
But then it comes to the 5 others. Read the rest of this entry »

I’m jumping on the bandwagon and posting my to-do list – i love lists, hehe
This is kind of an abridged version as I have so much to do to my sites :/
- Convert fanlistings using PHPFanlist (x11) to Enthusiast
- Upgrade Enthusiast to v3.15
- Update/give new layout/new codes etc. all fanlistings
- Finish adding all new pics to Nicole
- Update content at Nicole
- Catch up on Kate candids and events
- Reorganise/tidy up Kate gallery
- Put new layout up at Sienna
- Finish Naomi appearances
- Finish Maria appearances
- Open Isabel Lucas Online
- Update Kyra & Anna
- Check all galleries and wordpress’s are up-to-date
- Reply to all emails at all sites Sienna Online & KHH
God, I hate upgrading stuff. Especially coppermine (because I have so many sites) and now Enthusiast (complicated!!).
First let me start with the nice stuff – been working on Nicole recently – yay!! I’m so desperate to get that site back to how it was and I am going to … somehow/sometime, even if it kills me. And I wanna plug Amanda <3 whose comments here I will reply to, hehe … I’m soo slow. 
There’s been a lot of bitchiness going round in the fansite world recently, and yes, I’m going to jump on the bandwagon and rant about some online and offline stuff that’s bugging me.
I’m feeling very old in the ‘fansite-world’ at the moment. And I have to say I’m getting so sick of that ‘world’, although I’m not quite sure why … Everyone seems so young and in a whole other world to me. There are only a few ‘old-timers’ left (and I use that phrase with affection :p ) – Jennifer and April who I’ve known since 2001/2 maybe … at least they were two of the first friends I made online in the fansite world, both from Glamour Reese and Dashing Allure (Jennifer do you remember that forum?!!); and then there’s Luciana who I haven’t known as long, but I’m pretty sure I remember your sites from back in 2003. Fansites have changed so much since I first started out, and I’ve actually noticing it changing again recently. It seems to have become a lot more bitchy and, in a way competitive, plus there’s the trend of people charging for everything.
Now that makes me mad. Charging for every little thing … ‘access’ to sources is bad enough (and those prices can be insane – who t.f. would pay $50 for access to somewhere … those prices (and those that actually BUY them) make me fume), but charging for scans and screencaptures too?! I remember the days when people would share those things and freely send other webmasters those things without even a mention of anything (except credit) in return. Now I feel there is always the expectation of something in return. I’m not talking specifically about when I ask for something, I’m talking about what I’ve noticed for everyone in general. If I do something for somebody then I expect credit back, but besides that I just hope that if they ever see one of my celebs in a magazine/see pictures of them at some site/etc. they’ll think of me and send it to me. I completely understand that people want to earn money, but I just don’t think charging for these things is the way to go. Admittedly, I did charge for a few things a couple of weeks ago but that was a one-off and I don’t see myself doing it again. It is actually an easy way of making money … but I just feel guilty. Credit where credit is due to a few people who have offered photos, videos and scans for free – I love you!!

I’ve opened the temporary version of Isabel Lucas Online! I’m so excited about this site … I did want to open it at the perfect time (I’m a perfectionist!) and today didn’t feel like the perfect time to open it, but when is the perfect time?! Now’s better than nothing really The full version will be online next week all being well. And I’m going to open it as complete as possible, so I don’t have to spend the next two years building it up (*coughnaomi&mariacough*) haha!!
Please visit and comment, so I know someone is visiting
