Always thought those glitter word generators were really cool? Ever wanted your own? Now you can, with the free and lightweight GlitterSet! I’ve written this script and decided to let other people use it. It’s different from the glitter generator I use, but it’s perfect if you prefer to use letter sets and don’t know where to start making your own script. Check it out for more information and to download.

Please comment if you decide to use it!  You don’t have to, but I enjoy seeing it used and how.
I’m guessing Google reindexed the site, because there’s a lot of links coming in for this and it’s pretty high up…#3 for glitter script.  I really do love hearing that you found this site useful, so please let me know if it works for you and what you thought.

To explain the lack of updates: Things turned a little hectic this year so far.  Then I didn’t have the internet on my computer for awhile.

Done:

• Glitter generator.  This has been finished and can be seen here.  I will be adding more font options.
• Added stock photography section to image gallery
• Added 29 different glitter fills and 28 icons to the freebies section
• Added 74 stock photographs and 62 celebrity images
• Added 4 PSDs for download

As you can see, the new layout is up. I’ve added the new links directory, and have slowly began adding the resources that I know of, along with a description with my opinion on the sites. I would really like the links directory to not only be a way for you to advertise your own website, blog, or myspace, but also a place where you can go to find the web-related things you want and need. I also uploaded two more back issues of zines. I’m currently working on better navigation and site information (including how you can contribute).

Other than that, this is just a note to say that things are coming along smoothly. I’ve added the Myspace section, but it’s very, very generic at the moment. I will be updating it along with the rest of the site in the next few weeks, as I have a good amount of free time. If you have anything you’d like to see, please comment and tell me! Give me some ideas!

Okay, no updates for a while due to school things, and unfortunately there probably won’t be for at least a few more weeks. But I haven’t forgotten about here! In fact, I’ve probably been thinking about it too much.

So here’s the new things that I have planned:

• Glitter generator. I’m quite proud of this one as I figured out how to code it myself! Goal: May 20th.
• Guide to zines. This will be a work in progress, but with the help of a few people, hopefully it will help people understand what zines are and how to make them. Goal: June 15th.
• New layout. I like this one (especially the menu), but the colors are getting on my nerves. Be prepared for something brighter. Goal: May 20th.
• New links directory. The one now only works when debug mode is turned on, and so it’s not up. Goal: May 20th.
• New downloads & freebies. Website layouts, textures, PSDs, blends, fonts, bases, icons, etc. Goal: 30 website layouts, 20 textures, 10 PSDs, 20 blends, 20 fonts, 50 icons by August 1st.
• Tutorials. Zine related, HTML, PHP, etc. Goal: 10 by July 15th.
• Improved plugboards. Multiple plugboards, including 100×35, 88×15, 50×50, 468×60. Goal: May 20th.
• Improved things for me. Just a reminder for myself: stats script, reciprocal links, try to improve navigation system, integrate stylesheets, better icons, free advertising.
• Myspace stuff? I don’t use Myspace, so I don’t know how much I care to do this.

In general, I just plan on improving the site.

Just a quick note to say I haven’t forgotten about this site, I’ve just been super busy.  Expect updates after January 11th, when I have a good amount of free time on my hands and will try to come back en force.  I think the world will manage to survive until then; it’s only a few days away, after all.
