This place is "a-MAZE-ing", huh?

Quicksilver.nu was purchased in June of 2017 as I had the desire to put my websites back online and begin making character shrines and fanlistings again. Although I still had one of my old domains that I've used previously, I really wanted something fandom-related.

Previous Domains

December-rain.org » Valkyrie.nu » Quicksilver.nu

The name Quicksilver comes from Prompto Argentum of Final Fantasy XV's namesake (literally, Quick and Silver) as well as one of his weapons later in the game. I'm really obsessed with FFXV as well as Prompto at the moment. Beyond that, it just sounds cool. Though it's not as cool as Valkyrie was. I am still salty at Godaddy for no longer carrying .nu names and being unable to renew it.

Technical

The domain was purchased at Nunames so that I will never worry about a registar not carrying this TLD any longer and losing my domain. I'm currently hosted on Linode, which I would not recommend to casual designers or beginners as this requires some technical know-how in order to set up your webserver (a lot of command line and terminal use is involved). If you're interested in more serious web-development or want to learn how to set up and maintain a webserver, I would highly recommend it, especially if you need a specific setup or you need the ability to scale. I make my websites with Photoshop, Visual Studio Code, Edit Pad Lite (because I've used it for like 20 years fite me), Firezilla and PuTTY. I work on Windows 10. Woo.

Design Commentary

Current Layout: September '17-present
I needed something with more room to display content and expand. This layout features art of Prompto and some geometric designs. The background is from Patterncooler that I modified a bit into a gradient and css for everything else.

V1: June - September 2017

Version one was something stupidly simple that I threw together to put a list of my sites back online. It looked janky and cluttered toward the bottom but it served it's purpose.
