Journal ChibiTaryn's Journal: Website down 1

Well, the FFVII Citadel is down.

I've been trying to avoid this for some time, but finally things caught up with me, and now the site is in 'limbo', between one webhost and another. In some ways, it's kinda relaxing to know that I don't have to worry about this anymore. In other ways, it is frustrating, as I am being pressured to get it back up, while the circumstances are just beyond my control right now.

On the bright side (the brightest possible side of this) this is giving me time to attempt to redesign the site. It's been a collection of over 400 HTML documents for some time now. Which is fine -- until something needs to be changed... so, I'm planning on redesigning the site to make use of CSS. Then I'll look at learning PHP and doing the content that way.

I just wish though that it didn't have to be down at all. The internet feels empty without either the FFVII Citadel, or my own site there.

    It used to be, "cool, I'll get my own domain

With your bare hands?!?
