Hello there! :) I'm Patricia (some of you may know me from the TFL.org board - I'm "BrodyFan" over there).
I'm new to this board, but apparently, I've owned shrines in the past, I just didn't know to call them that. My fansites were always... "different" from others. My Color Me Badd (that's a music group popular in the 1990s, for you youngsters out there) website featured things like song lyrics with a guide to who sang which parts, an archive of news/magazine articles about them, etc. None of the other sites were really doing that.
Then I got into fanlistings... then ran a couple of "Fixations," which, I gather, is like a shrine with a clique to join as part of it.
Anyway, I'm glad to be here! I hope to learn more about Shrines and build a couple I have in my mind right now. ;)

Hi, Patricia! I've seen you posting around TFL! I just started poking around that board again myself.
You're actually the second one here to mention Fixations! That's pretty neat. Apparently, they're pretty close to shrines. It seems like you have some experience and can actually teach us some stuff, too! I am excited you joined here, and hope you'll post lots! Feel free to jump on in and interact with everyone, and if you have any questions, do not hesitate to poke me or one of our awesome staffers. Everyone is really friendly here.
I can't wait to see what you make!

Hello! I'm pretty new around here too, and I was into Fixations as well! I'm working on my first shrine, to Jemma Simmons. Warning: they are addictive! I've got ideas for several more I want to build. Anyone got any extra hours to squeeze into the day!

Hi Patricia, welcome to Amassment! I think back in the day there was a difference between fansites and shrines? But in general I do think they're both a dedication to a subject, so to me it's all the same, haha. In any case, it's nice to have you here, and I'm looking forward to the shrines you have planned! :)

Welcome welcome! :D I remember a bit about Color Me Badd, though I was a bit younger when they came out. :)

My main focus (read: obsession) currently is Adrien Brody and his work. I also really love Michael Jackson, "Friends," Woody Allen and Wes Anderson films, and The Lord of the Rings (mostly the movie trilogy, but the book is amazing, too).Robin wrote:Welcome welcome! :D I remember a bit about Color Me Badd, though I was a bit younger when they came out. :)

Oh! And I'm still a big Color Me Badd fan, but I actually know them now, so running fansites and stuff feels too weird to me. ha ha.
