Assorted questions for the lot of you:

[letterblade]

What is up with those colorbars? *v. bewildered*

Are there are high-quality, active, open-membership Utena discussion groups/boards/lists/communities out there? (Not that any of you are terribly likely know this, but it's worth a shot.)

Come to think of it, who here is actually familiar with Utena? *eyes Fiends*

What is the most interesting or important thing I need to know about what you my Fiendslist has done or experienced since the beginning of January? Big fandom news I wouldn't have gotten, good fics or meta, that sort of thing. (i.e., I don't expect to be able to catch up on everything, or read all the fic, but at least I can get a brief survey of the important stuff.)

Does anyone know whether it's possible to run-around OSX's prevention of DVD screencaps? Have....anime...must...screencap...*twitch* (Hm. Should ask my RL computer geeks too. Bob, darling?)

Speaking of OSX, know of any good sources for icons?

*ponders* That should be it, at least for now. Ahyi, the joys of being mostly hiatused for almost two months. Should catch up with the Fiendings someday. But after I read Pygmalion by four.

*raises hand* I am:) I've seen most of it (not the last couple of episodes but I will see them soon and I know what happens in them anyway...) and the movie. I don't know where people go to discuss it online, but I'd tell you if I did:)

I've seen the first, I want to say, three DVDs of Utena, and I love it. But I know nothing about its internet fandom.

Screencapping

[mayhap]

Download VLC, which, in addition to DVDs is rather nice for DivX files and the like. Actually, it does so many things that I'm not even sure what some of them are. Anyway, with it you can screencap to your heart's content.

Meta!

Spell It Slant: Harry Potter and the Postmodern Condition by Gregory Feeley. Six-page article in the Fall 2003 issue of the SFWA Bulletin. Find it here (http://www.sfwa.org/bulletin/pdfs.htm).

Besides, January also produced the fandom's first case of Riddle/Peeves (http://www.livejournal.com/users/fidelis_haven/686.html). :D

P.S.

Oh, yes, the sandwich skewer! *squerks*

I had run into your Utena illustratives before, at Jude's place and at Mediaminer, and fangirled immensely, of course. (Been fangirling you since I was in the Escaflowne fandom two years ago. V. shy.) Didn't know you actually read my journal. *waves happily*

I read lots of journals but am often too shy too comment. Apparently lots of us are the silent squee-er type. ;)
