First Contact @ 29th of June
Newly added page
From now on, you can contact me directly via the contact me page!
There's still a guestbook missing, but I will put one on the site once I have found a good script or a service.
On a different path, the holidays have begun for the Netherlands, and my parents have decided to go somewhere beautiful. This means that from next week thursday, the site will have to be complete in such a way, that there aren't any dead links anymore and that people can put their opinions and comments here. This will enable me to fix certain problems or be grateful when I get back from abroad.
The quest continues to find a guestbook...

 
 

Animations @ 25th of June
Update on the animation section
I have added my avatars and signatures to the Animation section. By doing this, I merged the other two parts of the animationsection; "Worms Avatars" and "Signatures and other Avatars". These have become one in the Gallery.
Most of these animations are between 10kb and 20kb, but some are bigger, going up to 300kb. Please be patient as these images are loading.

Life of a journal @ 1st June to 10th of June
1st June:
Today I started to work on the site. The banner and overall color scheme were decided. A basic table setup was created.

2nd June:
The menubar and its buttons were made with the help of some Photoshopping and some javascript hunting. I have also decided to use Shockwave to enhance the banner with little animations that go by. This feature will have an on/off button (location unknown). I have no idea when this feature will be finished as school and holidays are going to be taking most of the time of my Summer holidays (Norway for the win!).

3rd June:
Found a simple, yet effective program called "Programmer's Notepad". This is mostly a normal notepad, but it highlights the codes and the tags in the codes. It makes it really easy where the tags are, how deep the tables go etc! It even has a minimize tool so I can see the top of the codes and the bottom, while keeping the same window. It's simple, free and effective.
I will be using this program to create the site.

5th June:
Set up the journal logs of the previous days. Trying to find a script to enter new journals via the internet. Also tried to use div's, but since I'm completely unaware of everyone's screensize, I'm keeping it at tables. Thinking of a way to show fonts that the visitors don't have, and don't have to download in order to see them. In example, I use "ShelleyVolante" BT for the journal titles, but most people will see a different font. Shelley is the same font I used for the banner.
Added different background coloring to even/odd numbered journals.

10th June:
Swapped journal logs. They now appear top-to-bottom new-to-old. Also some dates were altered into the correct ones.
School project is coming to an end and the pressure is really high. After that it's exams and some "loose ends" that need to be finished. Because the school project is really heated up in the last few weeks, I haven't had much time. And there's alot to be done: the banner, the rest of the site, the scheme's for the animation-section, the DA-section, the journal still has to get a script to add new ones with ease.. so much to do and so little time.

 
 

Shikotei.com reserved! @ 29th May
I am now the proud owner of www.shikotei.com! My very first paid server at the cost of only ONE euro for the first year! Thanks to STRATO for holding an event where the first year is for one Euro. After that year it's the regular price.
Although I'm just a student and I still have school and homework to make and to do, I will do my best to get this site running in a few weeks and get some Javascripts to add journals by code, instead by hand.
The font used in the journal's titles is ShelleyVolante BT. If you don't see the same font as the banner at the top, you can download the font here. After downloading, please save the file under "C:/Windows/Fonts". This will install the font on your computer and thus enable you to see it on the website.

Please keep visiting for weekly updates.
