INTERESTING BITS

Harry Potter's Page first came to the World Wide Web in December 2001. I made the site because I wanted more information and accurate news on Harry Potter. I also wanted some way to bring the wonderful world of Harry Potter to those who love the books as much as I did. Never having any experience with web design, graphics, or HTML, it was quite a challenge, but I was persistent and prevailed. The current layout that you see is the third. When the site was first online, it was developed with Microsoft FrontPage. I now use Macromedia's Dreamweaver. I use a lot of PHP scripting, and use CuteNews for my news posting system. For graphics, I use Adobe Photoshop and Macromedia Fireworks. I also use PaintShopPro for animation graphics.

This website should do well in any browser, but I suggest you get .

I hope you enjoy this site, and that it brings you the information and answers you seek on all things Harry Potter!

My name is Aragorn. I'm 19 and from the United States. I'm an extreme fan of the Potter series and often quizzes friends about random minuscule details within the series like, for example, the House into which Orla Quirke was sorted. I got into the series after reading Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, having initially given up on the series when Philosopher's Stone bored me too much. That said, I, as of the 23rd of March, 2008, have read Philosopher's Stone 16 times, Chamber of Secrets 28 times, Prisoner of Azkaban 12 times, Goblet of Fire 8 times, Order of the Phoenix 11 times, Half-Blood Prince 2 times, and Deathly Hallows 5 times. I have also made a screenplay for the seventh book and plan to become a professional screenwriter.

Lilysowl

Poll Master and News Poster

Like Dijares and Nina, I am an older fan of Harry Potter. And like Dijares, I live in Florida. My "spoiled children" are my cat and my roommate's toy poodle. As "lilysowl", I enjoy flying through the internet to find news and information about the world of Harry Potter books and movies. I like the opportunity to use that information for the polls.

I also enjoy using the internet as a virtual library for my other interests like theater and listening to old radio shows. Besides surfing the internet, I love using my computer to watch movies, especially old ones, and to write. My interests away from the computer are baking, listening to audiobooks as well as reading, and making cards with rubber stamps.
