Yet again *sigh*...I'm having to move my completion date for the Season 15 Locations.

I haven't worked on the Locations in weeks! Life's been so hard & chaotic. It's been tough to find the time. :(

So the new deadline is: October 31st - Halloween! ;)

I swear, I'm gonna get this done! I'm halfway done with the season. I'm determined to make this next deadline!

Thank you again for your patience! ♥

My apologies for the long silence here at the comm.
With VanCon fast approaching (back at it's old August weekend instead of last year's October dates) I've been rushing to update the site with the Locations for Season 14. Unfortunately, I got way behind real fast & it's been a struggle to recover. Now, with only a couple of weeks until the convention, the pressure is really on!

Thankfully, I have made some amazing progress on the S14 Locations over the past several weeks.

Here's what is done:
- Capped Season 14 Locations
- Fixed & Uploaded caps to SlickPic
- Gathered S14 Location & Filming Tweets to Wakelet account
- Transferred info. for S14 filming dates & Locations to my LJ's Season 14 Sticky Post

Here's what's left to be done:
- Make LJ posts here for Season 14 Locations (hopefully w/only 20 episodes, I can keep the post # to 2 or 3 this time)
- Add Season 14 Locations to my Google Maps
- Make PDFs of the S14 LJ posts & upload to MediaFire (this might not happen in time for the con like last year, sorry!)

I had hoped to get the Season 14 update all done by Sunday - August 18th for those arriving early to Vancouver ahead of the convention. However, I probably will not make that deadline. I'll try, but I'm making no guarantees. Instead, my backup deadline will be Wednesday - August 21st.

I've been making update posts over at this comm's Twitter Account, so please check out @SPN_Locations on Twitter for all the latest news & progress reports! :)

Happened to discover a weird LJ Layout issue tonight.
Thankfully, it's only showing up on the Chrome & Opera Beta browsers (at least for me).
I checked it out in Safari, Firefox, Opera, Vivaldi, & Yandex browsers and everything looks fine on them.

The issue is having thumbnail images in an LJ post that are no longer nice and neat within the confines of the layout, but spill over in a horizontal line to the right, causing a scroll bar to appear at the bottom of the page.

Like this...Ugh!



So I apologize to anyone looking at my big image posts on my LJ or [livejournal.com profile] hurtwinchesters or [livejournal.com profile] spn_locations on the Chrome or Opera Beta browsers. Hopefully, they will update their code or whatever & those thumbnails will get back in line!

Until then, I hope you use other browsers to view LJ that don't have this issue! :)

I've created a Twitter account for this LJ community/site to encourage more communication with people and I'll also use it to help promote and share updates of the site.

Had hoped to get Season 12 done by last Friday, but well...life doesn't always go the way you want. *sigh*

Anyway, Season 12 is all finished and in the books! Phew! :P

You'll find the 3 posts at the bottom of the table on the Master Post, along with PDFs. All the Google Maps are also updated with Season 12! Enjoy and happy location hunting! :D

Terminal City Iron Works has been a popular filming location for many TV shows & movies, including SPN.
The property was sold and is slated to be torn down. However, if you read some of the comments to the article, it sounds like the buildings were falling into disrepair and possibly posing a danger anyway.

Still it will be sad to not see this location in any future SPN episodes.
Note that this location wasn't viewable to public, but Location Manager Russ Hamilton did take fans there on his tours in the past.

News of this showed up on my Twitter feed overnight. Nearly an entire block in downtown New West caught fire early Thursday, destroying several heritage buildings and taking out numerous businesses. Thankfully, nobody was hurt (a cat was even saved from one of the buildings), but it's a huge blow to the city which has been going through a revitalization.

:: New Westminster fire engulfs city block, destroys heritage buildings
:: Fire destroys half block in downtown New Westminster
:: Wall of flames burns through New Westminster, B.C. destroying blocks of heritage buildings
:: New West storeowners devastated after fire tears through downtown

Filming locations that are gone... )
