Visual overhaul

Well folks, after two or three years of its paragraph-based look, HSRTL is getting a major visual overhaul. I am placing the information for everything in table cells, which has given the site a rather neat look so far. The new table layout has allowed me to squeeze in links to the Homestar Runner Wiki, and that’s definitely a plus.

I’m not done with it, but the redesign should be up by tonight or tomorrow morning. If you’re curious as to what it looks like I’ve uploaded a sample for you to feast your eyes on. Don’t worry, I’m keeping the old design online, but I’m not sure if I’m going to keep it updated.

UPDATE (11/18, 9:01PM): The new design is up and running. I’ve decided to leave the original design alone.

Change to “Newest additions”

Long time no blog post. Just popping in to point out that I’ve changed the “Newest additions” layout from a horizontal list to a vertical bulleted one. This makes the list considerably less unsightly, as when there are several updates to HSR the newest additions would stretch across the screen and continue underneath.

And the reviews aren’t coming yet, although the savvy reader will notice I’ve inserted rather minute snippets of commentary in a select few places.

Finally.

Hey there, ho there! Long time no update, eh? Just wanted to drop a line saying that I’ve finally brought the ol’ Text Listing up to speed with the Homestar Runner universe. Things have been crazy these last three weeks, what with my heading off to college and all.

Speaking of college, remember those reviews I mentioned in the previous post? They’ve been put behind the oven in a Ziploc bag with a label that reads, “DO NOT OPEN TILL CHRISTMAS 2029.” Who’d’ve thunk, eh? College cutting into free time? Say it ain’t so!

That being said, there is a very slim chance of my writing and posting a review or two, but for now, don’t hold your breath.

If you did then I would have no visitors whatsoever.

Brand name! Chicken soup! Possibilities!

All right, folks, don’t expect this any time soon, but I’m considering adding reviews to the Text Listing. The reviews aren’t going to be anything fancy, and they’re not going to take up space on the Listing, but with the announcement that updates might be “scarce” for the next few weeks, I’m gonna need something to do with the site.

It’s what we call “moving.”

So I decided to move HSRTL to a better host... http://hsrtl.freehostia.com/

I have also changed the blog’s name from HSRTL: the Blog to The Homestar Runner Text Listing – the Blog. Not a very dramatic change, I know, and the URL’s still the same, but, you know, I figured I’d let y’all nonexistent readers know just in case you decided to freak out.

One last thing: I’ve change the blog’s look somewhat.

Dust off the cobwebs and say “Halloa there!” again.

It’s back, folks. I don’t know if anyone cares anymore—or ever did—but HSRTL is back. I’ve moved it to a new location, though, and I have to finish editing the file before the site comes up again. I’m currently hard at work updating the site—adding all the new stuff and capitalizing the sbemail titles (turns out TBC actually capitalize them).

I’ve uploaded the work-in-progress page The site is now available at http://bellsouthpwp2.net/b/o/boarder8925/, and all the changes have been made. I’ve even added descriptions to the Teen Girl Squad issues and I’m considering the same for Marzipan’s Answering Machine and the character videos Marzipan’s Answering Machine and the character videos.
