YES! My Website goes public!
http://hattori_striker.tripod.com/
Okay, I've been working on this thing for over a month now. Though, not very hard. And I now have a functioning website that looks halfway decent. So far, there are 4 different pages, The News page, the Profiles page, the Projects page, and the Links page.
I might as well get to the Dink related part before the board Nazis start railing this as spam
Currently, in the projects page, I've got a ton of info on Blood War, my first attempt at a d-mod that got lost, twice. I had some big ideas for it, that, if I tried to do now, could certainly pull off. It's in Word '97 .doc format, as that really was the easiest way for me to type it up (I don't want to convert all that crap to html). I should have info and picture from "Back From the Grave" up in while as well.
In the profiles page, you get to see the first publicly released picture of me. Too bad weird stuff keeps happening to it...
And finally, in the news page is a link to a 2.5meg .mp3 that I'm currently working on (it's unfinished). It should be quite suiting for the current holiday... MhahahahahahahAaAaaaAaa:
Oh and sorry about the popup adds. Get yourself a killad program or something. I've got one you can download:
http://hattori_striker.tripod.com/download/killad.zip
It's not great for a program, but it's free, and I can legally put it on my site. Also, put it in terminator mode to kill all new browser windows.

Spiffy.
Though... why in the world are you using Tripod as your web host? They're... sucky. The ads screw up any resemblance to a layout, they have pop-ups...
Thats why you need to join... Tripod
Well, the UK version at least. It rocks.
The ads are DHTML that go over top of your site, so they don't screw up the layout as bad, and disappear in 10 seconds or so. Its better than the USA Tripod by quite a bit. It also has 50 MB of space, PHP support, and even MySQL support, which I've never heard of being offered for free before.

I am getting this error when I try to visit your site:

Eeeeew! Those get-in-the-way-of-the-text ads are MUCH worse than regular pop-ups or banners. I usually leave right away when I see a site with those, though turning off javascript does protect against them.

Well, they're at the top of the screen, and you only get one big one a day. And they disappear after 10 seconds. They're not bad if you design your web site to accomidate them... just place the text so it doesn't touch the banner ad at all.
Example: http://members.lycos.co.uk/superwolfman/
If wolf would make the main title graphic a bit taller, then it wouldn't interfere with the text at all.

Nevermind. That's the evil firewall again.

That's the reason I chose tripod instead of something like Geocities. I never found a free service that wouldn't create a popup ad of some kind. However, I did not know of the UK version of Tripod. Those ads are far less annoying than the ones you find in Geocities. I might switch over sometime, but I'm too lazy to do it right now.

True, if the site is designed to avoid them, it isn't so bad. I wouldn't trust them not to change it so it pops out of the side or something the next day though.

umm... i can't access your site, because of DNS errors. take a look at this excerpt from the squid documentation:
[i]"11.8 DNS lookups for domain names with underscores (_) always fail.
The standards for naming hosts ( RFC 952, RFC 1101) do not allow underscores in domain names:
A "name" (Net, Host, Gateway, or Domain name) is a text string up to 24 characters drawn from the alphabet (A-Z), digits (0-9), minus sign (-), and period (.). The resolver library that ships with recent versions of BIND enforces this restriction, returning an error for any host with underscore in the hostname. The best solution is to complain to the hostmaster of the offending site, and ask them to rename their host.
See also the comp.protocols.tcp-ip.domains FAQ.
Some people have noticed that RFC 1033 implies that underscores are allowed. However, this is an informational RFC with a poorly chosen example, and not a standard by any means. '[/i]
hmmmmm anyone else have this problem??
