Scroll down and go back as far as you can to get to the first entry. THey go newest entry to oldest. 5 a page.

I read the first few entries and they sound pretty good. :) I would suggest that you change to a different journal site (or maybe just move to plain HTML like raptorman.us). The longer the journal becomes the more annoying it is going to become for anyone new to click through page after page to get back to the beginning. If people can't get quick access many won't read it. And I'm sure I'm not alone in finding it distracting to have to scroll up the page to get to the next entry as I read.

Keep up the good work,
Jacob

I read the top two and am excited to read them all! Very cool, I bookmarked it so I can read it at work! I'd prefer black or dark grey text on a white or pale grey background. White text on black ensures poor readability; eye strain.

I'd also prefer it if it went in chronological order, instead of reverse chrono!

I am trying to find a better way to host it. The best free way I can think of is a message board account and re order them. I have alot of entries on paper I just need to type up.

You might wanna try a blog or something like that.

FREE HOSTING TIP: Ignore this if- a) You know a lot about web design or b) You're willing to pay to host your work.

This method is brilliant if you don't know a lot about HTML and such (Or you're a fat lazy Australian who can't be bothered doing things properly...) because of the built in templates and buttons (It's as easy to use as MS Word). Gotta warn you though, it comes with banner ads at the top that appear after 30 days.

I use www.freewebs.com to host my website. Each account with freewebs only lets you have a total of 7 pages, but if you have multiple accounts (just use different hotmail addresses) you can link them together by making the last link on the navbar a link to the homepage of the next account.

Then at the bottom of each entry (or lot of entries if more than one to a page) just put in links to the next entry, last entry, and original homepage.

Have a look at www.freewebs.com/toomysbelieveitornot to see what I mean- keep an eye on the url when you hit the "More" links. Just ignore all the crap that's on the website, the guy that made the site is a filthy whoring bastard anyway...

well this is my first post....been hovering around the boards for a whil now...im EXTREMELY happy to see there are other zombie obsessed people out there besides me. i went for a long while being the only one whose fascinated with a post zombie outbreak city obsession.

was a bit reluctant to join...so i read a few (million) posts and todays i finally decided to join.

so here i am (YAY!)


my first post, unfortunately, seems to be a bit.....mean....i guess you can say. i dont think its mean persay but...well...these are just my opinions.

the story....read like someones wet dream. by the time i got to the van pulling into the driveway and it just so happens to be the 2 best friends i i found myself laughing out loud (and disturbing the stupid crazy lady in the next cubicle)

now if youve read my profile, which i seriously doubt anyone will, it says that im a writer. my niche is character development....im the guy who creates a believeable character out of a 2 dimensional character.

its not what was written, so dont take it as an insult, i do it to all characters. wether in movies, books, comics....whatever....i just wanted to voice my opinion that i thought that this was a little....over the top.

other than that i think the rest of the journal was great. i plan to do something like that myself one day (as soon as i find time). i hope to upload it here one day as well.

so...thats it for now.
