OOOO YAY!!! Jemma is so awesome! (I'm also partial to Fitz...I might end up doing a partner site or at least affiliating mine with yours xD xD)

Yay! Welcome to Amassment!! :D I can't wait to see your Jemma shrine! Despite being a huge Marvel girl myself, I haven't actually watched much of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Maybe I should put it on my next watch list. <3

I think they go back even further than that! :D I remember seeing some in 1996/97 (My first site was in '97 too!). It's hard to believe they go that far back. *_* Fixations do sound similar though! I haven't heard of them either but I'm very tempted to try to look for an archived version too. x3 It's fun to learn about the history like this~ <3

Welcome to Amassment!! I've known about fanlistings for quite some time, but like many of the others, I've never heard of Fixations, haha.

I hope you'll enjoy your time here, and I'm looking forward to your Jemma site! I never got far into the series, but I liked her! :D

Eunice wrote:Hello! I'm new to shrines, though not new to fanlistings. Looking around, it struck me that shrines are rather like the old "Fixations". Does anyone remember those? The idea was, if I remember rightly, that they were like a fanlisting, and might have a clique attached, but had a lot of extra content. I rather liked Fixations and sad to see them go. So I'm glad I've "discovered" shrines!

I'm old enough to know better, married with a daughter, three hens and a cat (and a husband!) and spend far too much time messing about on't internet. And now I'm off to try building a shrine for the relationships challenge!
Yes! I had Fixations back in the day. I'm glad someone else has heard of them. :) I ran: *NSYNC, The X-Files, Nicholas Lea (probably best known as Alex Krycek on The X-Files)... I think that's it.

Really late to the party, but how great to see you over here as well, Eunice! :D I'm Rain from TFL and also a shrine newbie. But after discovering Amassment I so want to build like 23894785 shrines xD. Can't wait to see your first shrine :).
