It might be too complicated for children, but to tell you the truth I didn't really make the page "for kids" per se; actually, I thought there should be a place where everyone could enjoy Kirk and Spock nuzzling together, even those people who aren't necessarily comfortable with reading graphic sex. Hell, there are all-ages *het* pages... I just didn't like what it implied if every single page with gay romance was adults-only. :-P
You mentioned links. Well, actually, the policy is to archive the piece instead of linking; I'll use your exact HTML file or do whatever you want with it, but I don't have any external links because I wanted people to feel comfortable clicking on anything they saw without having to be concerned that something they didn't want to see would pop up. I know your site is relatively safe, but some people have explicit illustrations decorating their menu pages, and I don't want to have to start 'grading' external pages. So... if archiving isn't okay with you, let me know. But thanks for saying I could take whatever! That's half the reason I ask permission so much. (The other half is that some of our artists/authors aren't K/S'ers, and I wanted to make it clear to anyone seeing the site and recognizing them as such would know that they were ok with their works being used in this way.)

nah, it's faster this way--i'll have to think about it; i don't generally hold with being archived off-site, with the exception of fandom-wide archives, official ones and whatnot. i don't require a link to my index page. linking directly to the stories would be the same if you used my identical html.
It's ok with me if you'd rather not, of course; it's just my self-inflicted job to comb the web for PG fic and ask everybody ;-) and I still will link to Silence from my recs page on my personal K/S site.
I'm hoping this archive will be "official", actually... after all, someone has to personally sit down and make those official archive sites, right? Especially considering they're not sponsored by the company that actually owns the rights... Ha! Can you imagine that?? ;-)
