Hey ;D Yeah, the title says it. I am thinking and strongly considering closing Wild Style. My site is really slow and there aren't many visitors and Sara really isn't that fun to do anymore. Yeah, it was fun in the beginning, but now- eh, I dunno. So it's on an indefinite hiatus. I am thinking of doing another site on another celebrity, when I'm more experienced in HTML and can do the layout things and get hosted so I can be affiliated with those sites who don't accept sites hosted by Freewebs or Geocities *coughSassycough*

Aw, thanks Gabby. *huggles* I am now REALLY thinking of closing it, but who knows? I might get my spark back before I close the site officially. And I don't think I could do two- it seems hard and overwhelming. I really want to learn more HTML, but I can't take classes and what I've learned is from Wikipedia, and I've only learned how to embed a link in a button (for affiliates) and to create a text link (for products and page within a page). I feel bad for thinking of closing it, since alot of style sites have been closing lately, but I just really don't think it is that fun. I'm determined to keep my graphic site open, but Wild Style just isn't that enjoyable. I want to do an actress that is more popular and that I'm a bigger fan of than Sara (although I am a fan of her) and that will attract more visitors (not that many people went to my site probably because it is hosted on FreeWebs and Sara isn't that popular). But I dunno. I want to thank those people who have helped me with the site:
Vicky, because she was very nice and supported my site, and helped me find matches.
Gabby, who became my second member of my board and is the first to support me when I said I might close it.
Nel, who should be the first person to thank because she is the one who inspired me to make a style site and started the whole thing.
And anyone I might have forgotten (I'm truly sorry if I have!), it's really you who have helped me with my month-long site. Thank you so much!

Just because Sassy doesn't want to affiliate with sites with a zillion ads doesn't mean that you have to close it. Alot of people still love your site and just put it on hiatus so you have enough time to find a host. There is bunches of places where you could get hosted. And for HTML stuff? Just go to www.lissaexplains.com/ (that is where I learned most HTML and if you ever forget anything just go there, I do it all the time ) and for graphic stuff, there is sites where you could get one made for you. Seriously, its not worth giving up your site just for those reasons. If you make another style site isn't it just going to have the exact same problems? And next time, please just edit the title of the first thread, like Amy did with " Steal It!".

I already deleted all my stuff, anyway, though, so I can't reopen the site without creating all the content again. *sigh* But being hosted on a free server isn't the only reason I closed it- it just wasn't fun anymore and I didn't enjoy doing it. Thanks SO much for the site reference. It's helping me alot with HTML. *exalts* Oh, and if I make another site and then close it, I'll just edit the title. I don't know if I make another site, that it will have the same problems. I think (but don't know) that having a higher quality site with a more popular celebrity will make my site more successful, but I dunno. I know I didn't give it much of a chance, but I have no life, so I spend all my time working on the site so it seems like it's been forever instead of a month and a half. Thanks though, Ally!

KK. I think someone should lock this thread now, so it doesn't become off topic...
