http://www.PaperDemon.com/
PaperDemon.com is where I learn and practice my knowledge of web development and web design. The website is my own code with the exception of a few libraries.
The site consists of an art gallery section where members can upload their artwork for the world to see. Members can write comments on the artwork, voicing their opinions and critiques.
PaperDemon.com also has a writing section. Unlike DeviantArt and other popular art gallery sites, the writing section is a completely separate section which allows for complete distinction between literature and artwork and for more proper categorization. I modeled the writing system after Fanfiction.net and MediaMiner.org, which allows for multiple chapters of a story and separation of critiques by chapter.
I also programed a Forums section where members can ask questions and debate about current events. I've integrated the FCK Editor to add rich text formatting capabilities to the forums and other parts of the site.
Other notable features include private messaging, chat room, chat box, a web comics section, and profile skins.
