2000 I started quite like everyone starts: with a bad site and bad content on an even worse freeserver. Even though my site was not high quality with regard to design (I did not know Photoshop yet), I put it together with much love and interest.

Frankly I started to study html because I wanted to delete the ugly border around linked images. You know what I mean? I needed this ... "I-did-not-even-know-WHAT!". And so I just ended up there in my source code, trying to change whatever it was and then this whole world of computer language just opened itself to me. WOW! [And if you now wonder how to remove the border off linked images: add border=0 to the image tag ^__^] Kind of fun. And that's how I started studying coding sites all by myself.

My first real project was about the The X-Files.
all thingx is still existing and I am planning to keep it that way. It had been my first large website; my first domain, first real content, first pretty layout design. Fist web success. :) all thingx is still one of the largest and most complete X-Files websites existing.

2001 all thingx just had celebrated it's first birthday when I got angelic-trust.net. I planned to keep my journal there - all thingx had kept some info about me but I thought it would not fit there to write down random thoughts. My first angelic layout was simply bad, I just did it very quickly to start writing. The first journal entries were without comment function until I added an interactive script. By that time I did not guess I would write hundreds of entries in the future. Pretty weird.

Also a child of these days is the House of Mirth fansite houseofmirth.de. It is a movie Gillian Anderson plays the main character in, which I am still pretty fascinated by. :) I think now there does not even exist another website about this movie anymore and it became the only one.

2002 I started designing Photoshop brushes and offer them for download at angelic-trust.net completely free of charge. That was really a new fun part that I had not done before. It is probably the reason why angelic got so popular over the years. It is also the year I really got stuck to fanlistings and the whole thing seemed to be pretty funny. I really did a whole bunch of websites during that time which made me improve my skills very much. Learning by doing is truly the best way to get better.

2001 and 2002 are also the years I bought most of my domains. I really loved doing websites and liked them having their own domains - I still do. But back then I had more time in my hands to care for all my sites which I sadly do not have any longer.

2003 All good days must end some time. I started studying at the end of 2003 and all my time went downhill with my growing knowledge. ^^ I updated my websites but did not create anything new that year.

2004 Studying continued, I kept most of all my websites but I lost almost all my interet in fanlistings. I closed most of them and felt very happy with that decision. Now I am only keeping the ones that really mean something to me still.

2005 Inter alia this site came to my mind. I have really went a long time of opening, redesigning, updating, maintaining and closing sites over the years. I have extended my knowledge from html to php and mysql, so I am not completely green anymore. When being online I must be very sure of what to do because my time got so limited.

Webwork is still in my life much. I love doing sites, extending and redoing them and learn new things about webdesign as much as possible. But it does not own that big part in my life anymore than it used to. Simply because of my educational perspectives. I still spend most of my freetime with designing but it is not barely for my websites. I barely have freetime and this rare freetime got so precious to me that I spend it with other things than web projects now.

2006 That year was also mainly dedicated to my studies. Especially japanese ate up all my time but I reached some major goals which I am proud of. Nevertheless with regard to websites I started to create the official website of our Japanese Seminar (I maintained it for two years). However instead of creating new websites constantly I continued to do more art. Like drawings but also digital illustrations. Some of the pieces can be seen here.

2007 In the middle of 2007 I started my own tiny online business called kyaaa.biz. The idea is very simple: I just sell cute handmade things. All my freetime was dedicated to this new project that became very precious to me right from the start. Everything you can buy there is created or designed by myself, you can purchase a part of me actually. :) It makes me very happy to ship all over the world and even though it is a tiny business it makes very merry happy working for it. I hope I can continue working in that way, it really feels right to do all this besides my studies at university.

2008 Was a rough year for me personally, I totally focused on kyaaa.biz and established quite a stable business. Luckily people trust into my skills and like my handmade cute things which makes me happy and fulfilled. I did a lot of new creations and barely updated my other sites. I did of course but mainly my business place. It is what I am spending most of my freetime with: creating and inventing new items and working on commissions.

2009 A complicated year as well. Besides some smaller websites I also closed my journal in spring. angelic-trust.net is still open and will remain online. The brushes are still available too, no worries. This was just because I did neither have the time nor the honest interest to write there any longer. But it is probably not a decision forever. As soon as I feel it is right to write there again, I will.

2010 To be continued ...
