Well, in honor of our upcoming one-month anniversary of the birth of Sectumsempra (July 17), Beth and I have been in talks about a new layout as well as buying a domain, which, when it happens, will most likely be
www.sectumsempranites.com ("The home for Harry Potter thinkers and questioners alike!") Is there any preferences as to color, character, font size, etc. that you fellow Sectumsempranites have? I myself have been thinking on a broader and more grandiose spectrum.
As opposed to our three leading men that Beth and I have so willingly made a central theme, I was thinking that perhaps for the main page there will be more characters, bigger and different fonts, and more color. I also want it to have the feeling of comfort, like when you walk into an old friend's house. Of course, the fundamental focus of this site is our theories and queries, and that's what it always will be, but I also want to expand knowledge on the Harry Potter series: characters, settings, classes, and so on.
See, what we're aiming for right now is this: Theories/Queries will be separated into categories. Each category (i.e. Ministry-related T/Qs, Voldemort-related T/Qs, etcetera) will have a layout corresponding to the theme! For example, if we are doing Voldemort-related, then we would have something like a Dark Mark-esque layout, with information on Voldemort and things related to him. This will be hard work but hopefully all will turn out well. There will be a surprise of sorts for everyone as well, which won't be divulged until the new site is created.
Our lovely friend Kristina Rodriguez is the creator of this layout and will be working on the next ones, but if anyone wants to assist in making these layouts, e-mail us at
tqsectumsempra@yahoo.com. Also, if there are any suggestions or wishes you might have, please comment so we can make this site a more welcoming and warm place to visit when you come to visit!
EDIT: I'm also trying to figure out the way categories will be determined (i.e. determined by character, setting, etc.) I'm thinking that categories for theories such as Teachers, Voldemort/Death Eaters, Otherworldly (meaning Dumbledore, Sirius, anyone else who is dead), is a bit too general, so perhaps popular topics like Horcruxes, The Trio, Dumbledore, Snape, etc. should get their own pages, then we could have a section for Misc. Observations and another section for Questions. I want everything to be as clear as possible so that people aren't tripping over themselves trying to find a specific theory, know what I mean? I'm thinking out loud now so my apologies for using this as a storyboard of sorts!
Is anyone good with graphics?
