The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

after spending 4 and a half hours trying to get a frikken background to work on this site I washed my hands of it, deciding it has to be my membership that's not letting me because my html was working fine in my simulator.

So instead I hand crafted a .bmp to look like I had a background image and used that instead. Probably saves on loading times as well.

I have decided I despise rating other people here..

I know for myself that if someone gave me a crappy mark on my own page that I'd be furious. Noone realizes the effort we each put into these things.

Yet I'm too much of a perfectionist to simply give 10's away.

I'd rate my own page a 5 I am so dissatisfied with it, I wish to put in a background, and line up the pictures properly in the least. I have much work I'd love to do to it if only I knew how.

I don't think I'm going to rate any more people's profiles, it's just not worth it. I'm too damned critical and I've started pissing people off.

I feel bad for giving away a 7, but damn, the page had errors on it.

If a page takes me a week to load because it's just so cluttered with that flashy crap, I'll be annoyed for sure and mark it down.

If someone has too many happy stars and smiley faces, no matter how amazing the page is, by the time I get to the bottom I'm annoyed and mark it down.

It's a matter of taste

and it's rediculous to make people want to rate other people because it increases their own status. You should rate people only when they've asked you to.

Enough of that bullshit
