Galleries Temporarily Down

We received an email from our host today letting us know that IHeartWatson has essentially become a victim of it’s own success. The site has been using up far more of our host’s resources then it should be, partly because of many people accessing the large images both in the high-resolution image galleries and in Capscan. While it’s terribly exciting that we’ve grown so much in the five or so months since we’ve started, this also means that at this point we’re either going to have to permanently remove our galleries, or move to a new, rather expensive hosting account that would cost us several hundred dollars monthly.

While we decide what to do, the galleries have temporarily been suspended. We’re terribly sorry for the inconvenience and I hope you understand.

Clarification: This does not mean we’re going to close the site, oh no! We’re just going to need to work out a solution for the gallery, which might involve closing it permanently or switching hosts. We’ve already found a few possible options and will keep you updated!

EDIT: Got a pretty new scan of Emma from the Tatler magazine, thanks to EW!

Update: We have almost finished deciding – we should be finished by Friday; we’ll keep you updated with any other news. Thanks to all the comments of support! – Kaetlyn

Another (Somewhat) Jumbo Update!

I’m positive that the layout change has inspired me to update more. I’m going to start off with the most exciting: the Style Files! We’ve been cooking this up for ages, but finally got around to finishing up. Or, actually, it’s far from finished – we plan to update loads, and make it as big as possible. But for now, I hope you enjoy the content that’s there!


long with the new site layout, I’ve made another one for Sparkly! Check it out when you take a look at the new Emma and Potter icons and wallpapers I’ve added. Don’t forget to tune into Ellen on Monday for (hopefully) new clips from OotP. Cheers!

EDIT: Last night, during Supernatural a new TV-spot with new Order of the Phoenix-footage aired. You can view the video here on Youtube. Thank you so much to ootpmoviepics at LiveJournal. - Lynn

EDIT: Thank you to everyone who is visiting; you are great! You make us all warm and fuzzy inside =) Just like Karly, the new layout (and pictures) seems to have given me some new inspiration again, and I have updated bits and pieces on the site.To start with the sitely stuff I’ve updated link us buttons, past layouts (not finished with all the comments, and good screencaps of version three and four are missing for now) and I also upated my profile a little.

As for other updates I updated Capscan with a couple of new albums. You can view the last uploads here. Sparkly, our media section, was updated with new icons (costars, Potter and Emma).
There is also a new bookmark as well as four new animations (actually they’re a bit old, but I never put them up before, so enjoy those). - Lynn

EDIT: Icons galore today! Karly and Lynn both updated their bits of the icon pages today with quite a few gorgeous icons by both of them and I added about fifteen of my own as well just now!

I’ve also updated the sidebar navigation on your right – there’s a link up to the awesome new Style Files there now, so don’t miss those! The main page of the site has also been configured to just show a few news articles a time, so if you’ve missed something, hit that “next page” button to catch up.

Thanks to HPANA, we’ve also got the full scan of the new picture from Teen Vogue I posted the other day. I’ve added that to Capscan, and Lynn’s also added the scans of Rupert and Dan, so check that all out:

Also, I’d like to second what all the other staff members have said about your input. We missed having comments from you guys SO! MUCH! I know we were quite inactive for a long time and honestly, that made the site a drag. Hope you continue to enjoy the site as much as before, and let us know what you think! - Allison

Note: We do know the layout looks funky in IE – we’re working on fixing it, so hang in there. Layout is fully functional in both Firefox and IE! If it looks really ugly and funky, hit refresh a few times and it should be pure gorgeousness. =)

We’ve done an awful job of keeping y’all updated on the latest images, I’m terribly sorry! We’ll be improving that shortly, promise. =) For now, the Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix official sites have opened (USA/UK) and we’ve got loads of new goodies from them!

Now, for the really awesome news! Emma, Dan, and Rupert are featured in the June 2007 issue of Teen Vogue and there’s loads of awesome new photos! We’ve got the three pictures featuring Emma (including the cover) and three pages of articles for you, with immense thanks to HPANA!

We’ve fixed the problems y’all had with commenting on newsposts, so feel free to comment away! Let us know what you think of the Teen Vogue photoshoot and article – I know I’m finding those pictures pretty interesting! I bet none of you are as excited as I am, though! ;D

EDIT: Thanks to the ootpmoviepics LiveJournal community, we’ve got a short bit of the OOTP clip that will be airing on Ellen DeGeneres Friday. Check out the bit, which is of Hermione and Harry in the Great Hall, here on YouTube and check here to find out when the show will air in your area.

And as you may have noticed, we have a new layout! Featuring Emma from the new pictures – sorry, I couldn’t resist. She just looked so good! There was also something else, but I’ve probably forgotten about it in the excitement. Don’t forget to comment and donate! I’ve also added a really HQ version (I do mean HQ) of the new poster we’ve been seeing (with Harry on the left and Neville, Ginny and Luna in the background). - Kaetlyn
