News Site Changes!
Hello everyone! Some changes happened to Potions and Snitches lately, and this news item should explain them all. The changes are good! I promise! Please comment on them and whether they will work for you! The classifications on the site have been updated to better reflect what they mean. Please edit your stories and make sure that all classifications on your stories are correct! The Takes Place classification has been expanded to have both summers and seperate years, as well as a time period before Harry's birth, and other time periods after Hogwarts of Harry's young and middle adulthood. The years and time periods are based off of Harry's age and what year of schooling at Hogwarts those years correspond to. You can see the complete list of times here: Takes Place. Warnings have been split into warnings and tags. Some mentionable tags that have been added include Sibling Addition (where Harry gets a sibling other than Snape, or Snape gets a sibling other than Harry), and Crossover. Other classifications were added. The complete lists can be seen by browsing Warnings and Tags. If you have suggestions for tags, please list them here in the comments. Snape Flavour is a new classification to show what each story's Snape is like towards Harry. It includes Cruel Snape, Mean Snape, Nice Snape, Canon Snape, Nice OOC Snape, ect. New characters added include Teddy. Categories have been reorganized and renamed to better explain what stories should be found in each. Please go through your stories and try to match each story with the category that it best matches! The categories are as follows: Big Brother Snape - Stories where Snape and Harry have the same parents, or one parent in common with each other. May be biological or adopted, officially or not. Master Snape - Stories where Snape has absolute authority over Harry; consists of Apprentice Harry, Headmaster Snape, and Slave Harry. Subcategories: Teacher Snape - Snape teaches or instructs Harry, esp. In a profession or as an instructor. Contains Trusted Advisor Snape, Professor Snape, and Unofficially teaching Snape. Subcategories: Snape Equal Status to Harry - Snape and Harry have the same status and are equals in social power. Subcategories are Colleagues Snape and Harry, Foes Snape and Harry, and Comrades Snape and Harry. Subcategories: Parental Snape - Snape exercises paternal care over Harry; to perform the tasks or duties of a parent or father. Subcategories include Biological Father Snape (Sevitis and Severitus stories), Stepfather Snape, and Guardian Snape. Subcatgeories: Healer Snape - Stories where Snape heals Harry in some way. Healer - one that heals or attempts to heal. Healing: the process of recovery, repair, and restoration. Reverse Roles - Harry Potter takes care of Severus Snape. Roles are opposite or contrary in position, direction, order, or character. Includes Big Brother Harry, Healer Harry, Master Harry, Parental Harry, Teacher Harry. Subcategories:
Misc - Stories that don't fall into any other categories, but still feature no slash interaction between Snape and Harry. Subcategories: Fic Fests - Stories as responses to certain Fests are archived here! Usually some sort of challenge or prompt response stories.
I hope that these explanations have cleared up confusion, and that everyone will be able to use the classifications and categories better by understanding what they mean. Please go to your stories and make sure all of the classifications and categories are applied correctly. Not all of the skins have been updated to show the new classifications of Tags and Snape Flavour. I will work on updating them all next week. Comment with any improvements or things that should be added. Thank you and enjoy the new additions! Chocolate frogs, Jan Jan_AQ on 28 Feb 2014 11:38 am [49 Comments]

JA, what CSS editor are you using?
- Jan_AQ on 11 Mar 2014 4:33 am
Stylizer. Why are the skins not working?

What do you mean not working?
- Jan_AQ on 11 Mar 2014 7:08 am
Did you get the files?
- JAWorley on 12 Mar 2014 5:41 am
Yes, I just got home and am downloading the files now. The ones based off of sadness need to be redone with the css version to base them off. The table outline used in the sadness theme was obsolete bad practice almost a decade ago. :( I almost have the css version done. I plan to replace and delete all the table ones. The ones based off of Hedwig are almost workable. I sent you a link in your e-mail. You need to look at them with a very big monitor to see what they will look like. - Jan_AQ on 12 Mar 2014 9:49 am
Im uncertain how to work the background so that it expands in size for larger monitors or if a user zooms in/out. Is there a CSS code for that?
- JAWorley on 12 Mar 2014 11:00 pm
I don't know. There may be but I don't really know CSS. I have to look up things as I go and try and test them out.

Hey, I came up with another possible tag. "resorting". In wich Harry has been sorted somewhere and later goes somewhere else due to a second sorting, time travel, undercover in other house etc.. - crotia on 17 Mar 2014 8:02 pm
Crotia, we have resorting. :) I also added amnesia.
