history
this site first went online in 1998. it was first hosted at angelfire, and was called "mellie's sonic site". it was next hosted at simplenet, then xoom (where i changed the site name to "mellie creationz"), and then tripod. jini was kind enough to host me at her domains ichigo.nu and momo-juice.net, after which i purchased my own domain (melliek.com). kilbourne helped me out later by hosting me at meirse.nu, and also extended my domain for another year (thank you!) when my domain expired and meirse went down, i finally went to furtopia for free hosting without advertisements.
