New page: VisionFromFeeling Forum, a page that brings you to the VFF Forum and also shows you how to find forum information in the Forum Management, the Forum Rules, and a list of all the Smilies catalogued for the forum.
New page: About VisionFromFeeling, here I intend to put up some pictures of me and tell a little bit about who I am as a person and outside of this investigation. Just to show that I am a real person. This "VisionFromFeeling" persona often becomes somewhat of a fictional character to some. But I am just me.
The new frames are now also on pages forummanagement.html, forum.html, smilies.html, comments.html, comments8.html, comments5.html, comments4.html, comments-letter.html, interview.html, interview1.html, interview2.html, updates.html, links.html, and index.html.
Two pages have been moved from Comments to IIG Test (these are comment7.html and comments3.html).
Update on Main page.

September 10 2010 - New Blog! Skeptics Aren't That Bad
Defended the skeptics on Paranormalia: Randi's Prize. Also linked to from Links. I intend to buy this book and write a careful review about it. This book, Randi's Prize, discusses the seeming rejection of the skeptical community toward properly permitting the possibility of the paranormal. After dealing with skeptics for three years as a paranormal claimant, I might have some things to say. Perhaps, I should write a book of my own.

Two new pages: Readings on Skeptics and Evaluation of the Claim of Health Perceptions.
August 22 2010 - Interesting things are happening. The whole website is getting a big makeover. As it now says on the first page,
"New frames are being introduced to this website! So many topics were emerging, that I was unable to make links to all the many different categories in the left column, and pages were being linked to from other pages and getting lost without any good overview of all the content of the website. It was starting to turn into a maze.
So what I've done, is make six main categories that are linked on the top, and each will have its own subset of links in the left margin. That way no pages get lost, everything is neat and tidy, and navigation is much, much easier! This was bound to happen sooner or later for a growing website. I never imagined three years ago that this website would grow so large, it started out with something like five pages total. And as you can see, there are other new main categories to the top, which will be the highlight of my new investigations.
All the other old pages are still available, nothing old will be deleted. They will all re-emerge soon, each neatly sorted into its own main category and with its own link in the left of that category. It should not be confusing."
There are six new main categories:
Home - will list general information, as always will have the major updates on there, will link to the VFF Forum, VisionFromFeelingBlog, and other similar general content.
Health Perceptions - This is where all the pages about my investigation into the health perception goes. The claim of health perceptions, the long study about this, the IIG test, TAM demonstration, and other content related to this particular claim. I will also begin to look into similar claims made by others, so look forward to that!
Migraine Healing - I intend to look into this claim as well as investigate the topic in general as claimed by others with similar claim.
Ghosts - You did not see this one coming, did you? I am one of those who vividly experiences ghosts, well not all the time just if a place is haunted. I plan to look into this and hopefully reveal how and why it is not accurate.
Breatharianism - As a former foremost promoter of this woo, I intend to offer some rare valuable insight as well as investigate into its claims and promises all from a skeptical view.
Skepticism - Here I will list general information about skepticism, as well as my visits at TAM. I had no place really where my TAM videos and reports would fit, so it is only suitable that skepticism gets its own main category. We will also look into confirmation bias, agenticity, and other skeptical terms that may offer explanations to the paranormal.
Pages will all receive the new frames, be placed into its own main category one among the six, and be assigned a link to it in the left margin of its category.
New main category front pages: Health Perceptions, Migraine Healing, Ghosts, Breatharianism, Skepticism.
August 21 2010 - VisionFromFeelingBlog up now - it was only a matter of time. Also linked to from the Main Page.
I am writing in the Swedish Skeptical VoF Forum found here in original Swedish, and found here in automated English translation, and one of the contributions from our discussions is that someone raised the concern that the statistics reflected around my IIG test may be an inaccurate representation of test results. And hence I added to the IIG test page that the statistics around the IIG test need to be established by a skilled statistician. And, to remind myself to do so once I arrive at a university next time, I have now created a to-do list. Or otherwise I will forget and then skeptics will say I am forgetting it intentionally.
August 20 2010 - Update about the VoF Forum found at Third Test.

August 15 2010 - Another comment on THE PASSION OF SAINT MEL (GIBSON THAT IS).
Also linked to from Links page.
August 12 2010 - I thought I would have nothing to say as I read through Michael Shermer's blog THE PASSION OF SAINT MEL (GIBSON THAT IS) as it deals with religion which is least of my worries, but finally the last paragraph, "To this combustionable cocktail of wrong-headed ideas and evil intent, add three more characteristics to bring Saint Mel into full light: a hot head temper with a hair trigger mouth and a propensity to drink.", led me to have something to say, Anita Ikonen says #comment-24929.
Also linked to from Links page.

study2.html used to be a "storage" page when the study.html page had become too crowded, but now each topic under the study is receiving its very own page instead, so all the content from the study2.html page is being moved away to their own respective topic pages.

New Page, well actually I just moved this without any editing from the test page to make more room.

Links page has new frames.

Comments has the new frames. questions.html was replaced by comments.html. Removed a link to itself.

Study page has the new frames.

Improved on the leftside frame.

Test page received the new frames. Text edited.

April 8 2010 - How it works/Synesthesia page Also received the new frames and looks nice. Nothing else was changed in the page.

Claim The claim page also received the new frames. It seems I must work on the left frame because it doesn't blend in well. I also removed links to two pages at the bottom (one describing in more detail the medical perceptions, and the other one about perceptions in food; these pages will be edited and returned eventually). The red image was removed as well as the reference to it at the bottom. Text remains unedited.

www.visionfromfeeling.com The front page received a thorough make over with new frames, featuring the famous white peacock that has been my symbol since I've used it as my Avatar image in the JREF Forums, and with some feathers for frames. I actually took the feather pictures myself, the top one of my ostrich feathers and the left one of my hen feathers. The white peacock is from www.sxc.hu and used here with the specific permission of the photographer. I modified the image somewhat, added pink and changed the size and lighting. And finally I figured out how to make frames run all the way.

I know everybody doesn't like white, but I've been looking at the bright pink old frames for a long time thinking that the color is just too bright and too pink. Oh and by the way, I use a laptop computer with a widescreen, so those of you who use a home PC will see the website window differently than I do. Often at times the formatting and layout looks good for me but when I check my website from a PC everything looks crowded. But, I can only work from my home laptop so those of you with a PC... enjoy the squashed version of Vision From Feeling. I can't help you! If anyone would be so kind, take a Print Screen image of my website and e-mail it to me so that I can see what it looks like and make adjustments.

The links in the frames are a little different. Instead of Test, we now have Tests, as I prepare to have at least one more paranormal test of my claim. The Progress page was filling up with links taking you to various other websites where Vision From Feeling was mentioned, so it became simply Links at the bottom. Questions became Comments, as I will have more Comments to say than there are Questions sent to me, and Guestbook is very quiet so it will be added as a section in the upcoming new Comments page. Hopefully the links are now more legible too, in black.

I also changed the front page picture again, and edited the text on the front page.
