Hey, does anyone have the address of that website you can run your HTML through and it will point out all the errors in your code?  I know Data posted it here somewhere in response to someone else's site, but I can't seem to find it ^^;.  

Thanks!

I don't know if anyone's noticed this rash of communities of Livejournal, but I thought it was a great concept and I encourage everyone to sign up or even just take a look at the prompts if you need some inspiration for your artwork.  

Fanart 100  100 prompts for 100 drawings of the fandom/character/pairing or your choice

Fanart 50  A slightly less strenuous version of the above

Eyecandy 69   An um... very raunchy version of the above

I was very tempted to sign up for Fanart 100, but wimped out at the last moment and signed up for Fanart 50 instead.  The prompts are more interesting over there, anyway.  :P  My fandom is Weiss Kreuz: General.  So far, it's been very challenging and fun.  

You could probably even modify these for original characters, if you like.  

(There's also an eqivalent for fanfiction, but that should probably go in a different section on the forums.  ;) )

Out of curiosity, who else is planning on participating in NaMoWriMo this year?  I must be nuts to be trying it.  Heh.  

So, if you're doing it, do you think you'll make it?  (probably not)  What's your novel going to be about?  (pretentious lesbians)  Have you done it before? (no)  How did that go?  

I'm excited.

I just thought I'd share a new program my livejournal flist introduced me to, called Artrage.  It  does a really good job recreating the effects of natural oil paint media, which makes me very happy.  Not that I'd ever replace real painting with this, but it does soothe my lack of scanner-ness.  

Here's my first attempt using it.  It's um, War.  From Good Omens.  The book that is slowly taking over my life.

I'm getting this new error message I've never seen before when trying to log into FTP...

"No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it."

What does this mean?  How can I fix it so I will be able to log in?  I've already tried to reset the file permissions.  

Thanks for any help in advance.
