October 2000

September 2000
Sep 12 Once again, an ultra-delayed update. Of course, a hospital stay followed by physical therapy and a need to catch up with several weeks of my life that were put on hold had a lot to do with it. :-)

I'll have another small update in about a week (maybe less) to add the fanfics that I've received recently, as well as some of those darn graphics (dammit, I've got to get on the ball with those!) and episode summaries, transcripts, etc (particularly "Is It Fall Yet?").

August 2000
There were no updates this month.


July 2000
Jul 21 Finally, Outpost Daria Reborn is back on the air after being down for nearly two weeks. Obviously, not much has been done to the site -- I was too busy trying to get this whole mess straightened out (a mess that The (Non-)Foxing of Outpost Daria Reborn details quite well) -- but I have done a few things that should (hopefully) prevent such a situation from happening in the future. Regular updates will resume ASAP; for now, I'm just glad to be back on the air!
  • All of the e-mail addresses for submitting fanfic, artwork, etc. to Outpost Daria Reborn now use the new outpost-daria.com domain. (Note that lawndale.net still works, but I'd prefer that people start using the new domain.)
  • Removed the Daria theme song files from the Computer Add-Ons page as an "anti-Foxing" measure.
  • The message board, and the song list and "oops!" list submission forms, are currently unavailable, since the new server I'm on doesn't support MIVA. (It does support CGI-BIN, however, thus I'm currently looking into new message board software and replacement submission form scripts.)
Jul 4 Happy Fourth of July to my fellow USA-ers! To celebrate, here's a brand spankin' new update, with enough goodies to keep you busy for at least ten minutes. :-) Seriously, I'm going to try to get back to a more or less regular update schedule; the longer I take between updates, the further behind I get, and that's got to stop.

  • Replaced the old message board with a new version. A conversion from old to new wasn't possible, so all users will have to sign in again (and all old messages are gone).

January 2000
Jan 14 The first update of the New Millennium... and yes, I still say to all of you "2001 is the official start" maniacs: lighten up, okay? :-)

Also, I'd like to take this opportunity to welcome fanfic authors Diane Long and Admonisher to the ranks of Featured Authors (and I'll admit, it's long overdue). Congratulations, Diane and John! You can put those 'maters down now... <grin>

Finally, I know that this isn't much of an update -- more fanfic, and the ever-present artwork, is waiting in the wings -- but I promise to have more online when I get back from my trip. Viva Las Vegas!
