    I like it.

    However, it did freak me out when I finally got my new computer situated and went to check on this site to see everything different! (The banner, while awesome, is a scary site to see when absolutly exahausted)

    It was working rather slowly, that's my only complaint. It might just be my computer, though. Still not through with adjusting all the settings and firewalls/security and such... *shrugs*

    Great work all the same!

    Avitus - What about the avatar system?

    And heh, Exiled, were you here when Midknight changed the whole layout of the forum? If not, then yeah, it would be a huge change for you :p.

    I just moved a week or so ago. I've been a house-elf ever since, and even worse! I had no computer. I had to wait a week until my new one showed up. Now all I have to deal with is a backed up email. The site definitely looks sexy, though :D

    The PUFF? Er... I like to have all my facts straight before committing myself to anything. So, What are you talking about?

    Good to see I can edit my avvie now, though. :) And to note, it was my computer making it run slowly. My Norton program was attempting block the site.

    If I remember correctly they took part in December of last year. I should imagine that they would also be about the same time this year. That is if they will be running the awards again.

    We may be running them bi-yearly. In which case the next awards would be in June/July.

    Yes, I haven't read many new fics that even deserve more than a few seconds let alone a nomination. It'll just be the same old fics from last time.
