Printer-friendly versionJust a long and rather boring compilation of the programs, scripts and web sites I've used to help create and maintain this site. Covers the codes, domain, text and the visual.
Code
The programming languages used were HTML, PHP, and JavaScript.
Coding was done through Beyond Compare and NetBeans IDE. As well as The W3C Markup Validation Service to check syntax. phpMyAdmin was used to manage the mySQL tables. And the uploading of files was done through WinSCP.
Domain
'self-injury.net' is hosted by Linode. The domain itself is handled through Namecheap.
Text
The informational sections of the site make heavy use of the book, Scarred Souls. This is an excellent book on self-injury and was written by Tracy Alderman. The use of it is for educational purposes and not intended as a way to make profit.
The idea for the "Self-Injury Survey" and the "In Their Own Words..." part of the site was inspired by Deb Martinson's site, Secret Shame. I also found several of the resources I listed on my "Resources" page in Secret Shame and Self-Harm: Recovery, Advice and Support. The idea for "In Loving Memory..." was partly inspired by Something Fishy Website on Eating Disorders.
Visual
The graphics were made with GIMP. The artwork used for the headers is from 1912 Georges Barbier, available under Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 2.0 Generic.
The icons are from famfamfam, led24, and PixelMixer.
