selenakIf I had the skills and the time to create websites, here's what I sometimes think I'd like to do:
1) A Babylon 5 website for stories and essays about the Centauri and Narn. (My other pet B5 interest, the telepaths, have already a good website.) Granted, there isn't much material to work with yet, but every archive starts small. I'd ask fellow B5 fans to contribute essays on Londo, Vir, G'kar, and, why not, Na'toth, Cartagia... And later on maybe comparisons between those characters and their storylines, and characters from other shows which provide a good contrast or parallel. I'd then bribe some of these talented vidders to create B5 music vids as well.
2) A BTVS website devoted to the character of Buffy. No 'shipper stories of any calibre (don't care whether it's B/A, B/S, B/R, B/F, B/X, or, Joss help us, B/G). Instead, non-shippy stories either exploring Buffy herself or her (non-romantic) relationships with any other the other characters. And I think there's quite a lot to explore. Buffy and Willow post-Darth Rosenberg & resurrection, Buffy and Xander and Dawn during the summer between seasons 6 and 7, Buffy and Giles after their season 7 fall out, Buffy and Dawn at any given point, Buffy and Tara during season 6 - you get the picture.
3) A DS9 website concentrating on the Ferengi. I love and adore my shades-of-grey Cardassians, of course, but they already have plenty of net attention. Rewatching some more DS9 (which will probably lead to another post) reaffirmed my Quark, Rom and Nog love. I've got a soft spot for the Nagus and Moogie as well. My guess is there wouldn't be much demand for such a site, but who knows?

I went out and wrote a "Bakery" (http://www.fanfiction.net/read.php?storyid=1362448) post-Chosen Fic in which Buffy starts to go out and do that personal-growth she'd been talking about. Because, after Sunnydale fell down, what does Buffy really want?
I put in some mention of the ship stuff, because it's hard to avoid, but the focus was on Buffy trying to just be Buffy. I don't think it sucks, so you may want to take a look.
Thank you!
