Background
Psyche.nu was purchased in late August 2002 to serve as my personal domain. In January 2003, I made psyche.nu my main collective.

The primary reason I bought psyche.nu was because I love Greek and Roman mythology. I've been fascinated with classical myths since I was a child, and one of my favorite stories is that of Cupid and Psyche. My favorite mythological goddess is Pallas Athena, and I was upset at not being able to get athena.nu when I had the chance, so when I saw that psyche.nu was available, I decided to get it. I don't regret it one bit. I was actually able to register athena.nu in 2009 (♥), but I think psyche.nu will always be my domain for as long as I have websites. ♥

Psyche, in Greek mythology, is the personification of the soul. "Psyche" is also the word for "butterfly," which is why Psyche the goddess is often visually depicted with butterfly wings. The word "psyche" also can be used to refer to the mind. If this network had a second name (it doesn't), it'd probably be the "Butterfly Soul Network."


About Me
I've been creating websites since 1996, and my oldest site is over ten years old. Admittedly, I don't have much inspiration or talent for web design, but I do what I can. I love domain names, and I have probably owned about 40 in my lifetime. My current interests are in the manga series Hagane no Renkinjutsushi (Fullmetal Alchemist), Claymore, Bleach, and Hellsing, but I am also interested in anime and manga generally. Although I don't watch much TV, my favorite series are Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis (Seasons 1 through 3), The X-Files, Psych, House, NCIS, Scrubs, Futurama, and Law and Order: Criminal Intent. I also love collecting doujinshi, playing video games, listening to music, making fanlistings, and writing fanfics. You can find me hanging out at The Fanlistings Network, where I'm the Games: Applications/Troubles and Mythology/Religion: F/U/C staffer, and at The Anime Fanlistings Network, where I'm a Senior Staffer, the Movies/OVAs staffer, and the General staffer.


Current Layout
Version four of psyche.nu features a beautiful image by talented Taiwanese artist Chen Shu Fen. The image comes from Chen's artbook Sweet Days and was found at Aethereality. Fonts used are Porcelain and Selfish. The layout was designed in Paint Shop Pro 9, was hand-coded in Editpad, and is XHTML Transitional Complaint. It's blue and simple - there's not much else to say, other than it'll probably be around for a few years, given my track record of rarely changing layouts. <3


Contact
If you need to contact me, you can always . Alternately, you can instant message me on AIM. I've actually never received any questions about this domain, so I'm going to assume that a FAQ is unnecessary <3
