version 8: afterglow

It's 2005, Pale Movies is approaching it's four-year anniversary, and I've finally gotten round to unveiling the site's first major layout change courtesy of the web design skills of the talented nichts. Pop-up design is interesting but has its problems, the most major of which is the problems posed by pop-up blockers, most pop-ups being an annoying waste of time rather than legitimate attempts at personal homepages. A change was needed. And then my own severe lack of talent when it comes to web design hit me over the head and I slunk off to sulk.

I've long wanted to change my layout, though my desire to use this picture (an image which, in my head, glories in the title of That Ken Picture - yes, I'm still obsessed and clearly in it for the long haul now) meant hanging back and trying to think of a way to do it I could actually do justice to. Long story short, I couldn't and asked for help, the end result being both damned obvious and equally pretty.

About Pale Movies

The brainchild of a webmistress in recovery from a bad breakup and a total lack of interest in the fan site she was then engaged in running, Pale Movies was created by the squirrely online entity currently known as laila in October 2001 and has been in existence, in some form or another, pretty much ever since. For most of that time it has been the usual fairly comprehensive mismatch of most personal homepages out there, used for the pretty standard reasons of foisting its owner's views and various attempts at being creative on an unsuspecting world.

For most of its existence this site was designed and built by the fairly talentless webmistress, using html ripped wholesale from the far more talented mellie's fangirl.net. The current layout, which she christened afterglow because-- don't ask it's safer was designed for her by nichts (who can probably guess what the version title refers to), working from the brief 'owner likes Ken and blue and purple'. Since she actually knows what she's doing, this site actually boasts a half-decent layout for the first time since its inception.
