Little Britain Creative Crapola: About the site

FAQ (Frequently asked Questions)

I'm making my own Little Britain site, can I use the content on your site on mine?

Put quite bluntly, No! I don't see the point in two Little Britain sites having identical content. It takes away the point to visit my site if this site's content appears elsewhere. Try and think of the visitor of your site, they are likely to visit a few Little Britain sites hoping to see different content on different sites. It is pointless to have two sites with identical content, it also annoys me to see my sites content on other sites, I have worked hard to produce the sites content, and find it extremely lazy to find someone just using my sites content as their own. Why have I worked hard to create this sites content? because I want visitors, there would be no visitors to my site if all the content was elsewhere.

Why no forum on the site, plenty of Little Britain sites have forums, why not yours?

There are numerous Little Britain forums around, many of which I am a member of. Unfortunately there are not enough fans to go around and many of these boards are empty. I'd rather not be left with a board that is empty and going to waste. I post about and receive comments about my latest updates on the Lucas and Walliams Forum, a board I recommend if you want to talk about Little Britain. The Blog is available if you want to post comments on the latest updates about the site. If you feel otherwise and that Little Britain Creative Crapola should have it's own forum please feel free to email me, I'm open to suggestions about opening a forum.

Who makes all the stuff on the site?

All of the stuff with some exceptions are made by me, the person who is writing this, just call me Clive_Evil_C!. The stuff I didn't make on the site are Abi's Flashes on our Miscellaneous page here. Some of the stuff on the site I have received help with making it such as Little Britain Creative Crapola's own Bernie Taupin Cheryl who suggest ideas for our Video Edits.

I have an idea for a video for your site...

Well then please feel free to email me your idea, I do take suggestions and am very interested if you have any ideas for one. Please feel free to email me with your idea. Don't worry I will credit you and may even let you see the finished video before anyone else. Similarly if you have any suggestions for any other content for the site such as Avatars or characters to make banners of then please do contact me.

What software do you use to make your sites content?

On the relevant boxes with the content I have noted the software I used to make the content. If you have any questions about how the content was in particular created please feel free to email with any questions at the address above.

I've noticed your site graphics, is there a Little Britain font available?

Unfortunately not, I produced the graphics from a scan of the Script book and where necessary created new letters by modifying existing letters in Photoshop. I have no plans at the moment to produce a Little Britain font, though this may change.

About the site

About the site, want to know, well, about the site! Yes? Good, because this is the page! Below are links to specific sections.

How did I become a fan? How did the Site Start? How has the page Layout changed? What are all the different sections for? Does this site have Easter Eggs? So why have Crap in the title? So who, apart from yourself and God should we thank for this site? Have we finished?

How did I become a fan?

How did I get into Little Britain? well its a long story which is quite short. I came upon the Lucas and Walliams program known as Rock Profile, maybe you've heard of it, maybe you haven't, this site should educate you on this wonderful show, or bung in your Series 1 DVD (providing you have it!) for the best of it or why not buy the Rock Profile DVD, read our review of it here. I became addicted to watching this show when UKPLAY or PLAYUK (as it was renamed, bizarrely flipping the UK for some reason, no idea why, because it's 'kool' Probably) showed it repeatedly, this introduced me to the delights of Lucas and Walliams.

Then I came across Little Britain years later (about two or so), on BBC3, the brilliant modern classic sketch of Lou and Andy at the swimming pool (download that clip from here), The clip which is now the number one sketch of all time according to some popular vote (Video clips of that countdown here). I instantly became hooked on this delight of Lucas and Walliams Afternoon delight, although it was on in the evenings. So that's how I became a member of the cult of Little Britain, or if you'd prefer, a Fan!

How did the Site Start?

What came first, the chicken or the egg? Or in the case of websites, what came first, the Site or the Content, well in LBCC's case, the content! Yes, Little Britain Creative Crapola isn't one of those sites that started out by some person saying "I want to make a Little Britain site." The site started because I wanted to make a site to host the content I had made, which I had shared with my fellow fans in forums. What content is this you ask? Well all the Banners, some of the Avatars, the Seb'n'PM video, Little Britain and the day after tomorrow video, and a couple of wallpapers. All this content was added to the site in August of 2004. And as the months have gone by, I've added much more content to get to where the site is now, with too many pages that I've lost count!

How has the page Layout changed?

The site has not changed a great deal from when it started in August 2004, other than the navigation table at the top of the page, this has gone through 6 re designs! (Yes 6!) Below are screenshots of how it used to look as well as the current layout. Some are more noticeable changes then others.


Layout 1 - August 2004	Layout 2 - November 2004

Layout 3 - March 2005	Layout 4 - June 2005

Layout 5 - August 2005	Layout 6 - September 2005

Hopefully you'll agree that the current one is the best, if you don't well, can't please them all, I suppose. The site has remained the same through out it's graphics changes, the layout and navigation of the site have not changed much at all.

What are all the different sections for?

- Basically Animated Gifs (picture files) There are three pages of Little Britain avatars (at this very time of writing), as well as 18 other comedy avatars with shows like Alan Partridge and Spaced as well as two whole page dedicated to Rock Profile Avatars. All this can be found by clicking the Avatars graphic and selecting the link to navigate through our Avatars page. We are always adding new pages of avatars every few months, so check back for more. Please feel free to use these avatars on forums of your liking.	- videos, you know moving pictures with words, here we have 6 Little Britain spoof trailers, 15 (at the time of writing) Little Britain compilation videos and some other comedies videos including a Alan Partridge video and the Rock Profile License fee advert. We are always adding new videos every month or so, so keep checking back for more videos. These our the most popular downloads on the site, so I'd be crazy not to make more. We also offer clips of the Top 50 comedy sketches countdown that featured Little Britain thrice in the countdown, see the videos page for them.
- Well, it's what the name implies, banners that can be used in message board signatures, we have some Little Britain and Rock Profile Banners. There are banners dedicated to all the major Little Britain Characters, are we missing your favourite character? Then let us know!	- e.g. Right click, set as wallpapers, we have a good selection of Little Britain wallpapers, nothing that special, merely filler you might say! This is admittedly our weakest section of the site, I want to try and build it up... one day!
- Short for miscellaneous (Yes there's sense in the madness!), e.g. I created a Little Britain game, and this was the only section it would go under. Now we have Flashes created by Abi and merchandise reviews of all the official Little Britain merchandise. Also on this page is the sounds page which includes audio versions of our popular video edits and clips from rock profile, as well as that we have got the april fools page from last year and our report of the series 3 recordings as well as some more stuff.	- Links to other Little Britain website and non Little Britain websites which you might enjoy, if you would like me to link to your site, please email me. I have picked 5 Little Britain sites which I recommend for all Little Britain fans because, well these are my favourite sites. Of course you shouldn't want to visit this page surely? and leave my site, oh I'll let you off as some of the site are quite good really.

Does this site have Easter Eggs?

Yes as a matter of fact it does, you know what Easter eggs are, well there hidden stuff, there are 3 Easter eggs on the site, select the text below if you want to know how to find them, I assure you, they are worth finding! Don't select the text if you want to find them yourself!

1) On the Home page, scroll down to the bottom and click on Des Kaye under the site description and by the affiliate graphics

2) On Spoof Trailer page for the Episode One Parody, click on David Walliams as Obi Wan Kenobi Picture (the bearded man pic by the Little Britain episode one trailer.)

3) On the videos page, select the Seb'n'PM video and click on 'Elton john'

So why have Crap in the title?

Why have crap in the title, well unlike some sites I prefer not to call my site the 'BEST LITTLE BRITAIN SITE ON THE WEB!!!!11' I prefer to have a title with... you know some personality, so I thought up the phrase creative crapola, not sure what inspired that decision.

So who, apart from yourself and God should we thank for this site?

Thanks for the encouragement from the regulars of the Lucas and Walliams forum and those kind people who link to this website, especially Tara of davidwalliamsfans.com who provides screenshots that are used on this very site for all the graphics. Oh and thanks to you the visitor! Without your encouraging comments, well I just wouldn't bother updating the site

Have we finished?

Yes, there you have it, everything you could possibly want to know about the site, I hope this has been of interest. If you have just scrolled down to the end and would like a short summary of what this has been about, this picture below summaries this page, perfectly. Good Bike!

Don't get the picture? Well it's a picture of a waffle, and on this page I'm rambling, or if you'd rather 'waffling' Geddit? No? Oh well I give up!
