What's with the name?
One
day while Starlie and Amicitia were chatting, the conversation drifted
to
their
webpage. They decided that they didn't like just "Amicitia and Starlie's
Webpage".
So they started to brainstorm names. Amicitia suggested "DaZone",
"A
Wee Corner of the Web", "Moonbeams and Cloud Shadows", "Page With
Yellow
Squares" (that was the background set on the main page at the time), and
"Friendship Star". After some discussion and a quick vote, "Moonbeams
and
Cloud
Shadows" was chosen as the new official name of the site.
Who runs this place?
That would be Amicitia and Starlie, two very best friends.
How long has this site been around?
It
was started back around June 1999 as a very small site. It was opened
to the
public
in late September 1999 and was given its new name shortly after.
So, what's the point of this place?
Good
question! The truth is, it doesn't have much of a point. Part
of its purpose
was
just to be a fun project that two friends could work on together, something
that
could grow and develop right before their eyes and reflect the growth of
their
friendship. The purpose of this site could also be expressed as "to
spread
joy
and cheer", since it is about all kinds of beautiful things and features
many
bright,
cheerful graphics.
