Well my computer is broken again. The fan isn't working anymore.

I think it's a good thing when you can post updates without using FTP. So all my sites are on a hiatus at the moment. I'm not answering any website related emails since I'm not on my own computer and I don't want to do mess with any of it. I do have everything backed up, so no worries about that.

1. I can send it into HP to get it fixed, but that would probably take at least two weeks for the whole shipping and fixing process.

2. Get a new computer.

I technically need a computer to function for my classes since professors post all their handouts, homework, notes, etc. online. We also have those ridiculous simulation problems, which are also all online...as well as writing up lab reports etc. But I don't know if getting a new computer will be cost effective. Troublesome.

So it hasn't been exactly 6 months since the last clean up but I am trying to get it all up on a schedule of June/December (except I was uber busy last Dec so it moved to Jan/Feb).

Icescape.net - Gosh I never check up on this site anymore since it's just a link list. How terrible. I should really move it over to this server when it expires and change it have more web-related help tools such as helpful code snippets and my experiences and opinions on running different sites i.e. TCGs, WPRs, Fanlistings.

Digital-wing.com - The loverly weblog. I stopped paying for the Paid Account here at LJ, which I don't mind too much because the only function I was really using was the custom Mood and redirection. Hooray saves me $20?

Neo Nobility - the old queen is in need of a bad script revamp along with all that information I promised. I also really want to redo the manga since there are people who are literally trying to compete with me. No I'm not competing, but I do want to make my scans higher quality if possible. And hey...you never know, I might just find the time to actually make true scanlations by changing their names from Bunny to Usagi. I also really need to upload those lasts few Short stories since everyone has been bugging me about those. Need to update Cutenews version and add more layouts.

Hydro Powered - Definitely adding in the last Volume 6 scans. I know I did a good job on a layout when I can look at it even now and I don't want to change it. Good ol' HP, you're my secret favorite of the bunch.

Love Liberty Disco - I still like the way this layout turned out so I don't think I'll be changing anything for LLD this time around. Although, I really need to start finishing up my Sailorvenus100 icon challenge.

Deep Submerge - the big Awards is planned in July. What did I get myself into? We also now have a nifty button rotation.

Goddess Bless/Trickster's - Really need to switch this back over to Goddess Bless. Just haven't had the time and motivation to do so + new layout.

Sanctuary - Get rid of the fanlisting. I've been playing RO again except on a much higher rate server (75x) so perhaps I'll add those characters too...although whenever I do that it ends up being taboo. We'll see. I have the self-reputation that if I ever put up my RO characters on Sanctuary or when I leave a server the server dies/wipes. I'm cursed.

Muse - the next big project that I've wanted to do. It's somewhat what I already mentioned for Icescape.net...so maybe I'll merge it. A web resource place for small helpful code snippets and my articles.

So Magical - definite script and layout revamp. Do you know how hard it is to make a good one-screencap layout. Troublesome.

Clampaign - the other big project. Thankfully I have so many willing hands to help! Scheduled opening date is late June. As of now I need to burn through card making, setting up staff run games, hire and de-brief staff, and a new layout before opening date.

Habitat - New layout needed. I still like this old stately clique.

New projects......
-errm none right now, I'm swamped.

Etc.........
- Cutenews license? I use it on half of my sites, it would be useful if I did have a license for it, except it's $50 per domain. Hmm I don't remember it being that much a few years ago haha.

Thanks to Dodo for updating her Quiz script so quickly. All quizzes are working again in PHP5. Cheerios.

And because the NN updates only show NN tags here's the gist of Sailormoon related updates (sorry for those who read the whole entire update log...repeat)
- New layout over at LLD
- Working on my Venus icon 100 challenge
- I closed down the Chi/Phi fanlisting

So finally messing around, deleting certain .htaccess and adding a few, I've finally! and successfully made it so that no one is able to direct link any .jpg, .gif, .zip files <<< zip?! Yes that includes the manga files, so no more icky user/pass (this will cut down the 99% of people who keep asking me "Where can I sign up to download the manga!" or "Help! I don't know how to d/l the manga!")

I thought I'd just state this in case anyone else seems to be having this "problem."

"I can't open any of the zip files for the manga, they are corrupted."

None of the files on NN are corrupted. They are all working fine, and yes I did check. If there is ever a reason that the files you downloaded off my site are corrupted or you can't open it in any way is because you downloaded it incorrectly. For example, your internet cut off and your file stopped downloading, which can seem like it finished downloading when it didn't.

If you haven't noticed, Neo Nobility is looking a tad bit under the weather. I just uploaded the new CSS, which basically misaligned everything. I also need to switch over brushes/textures over to DeviantArt. Not to mention, revamping the entire Information section. And as a later side project, I'll be re-touching up the manga, and hopefully figuring out a way to detour direct linkers, without having to password gate it.

All this will probably occur during Spring Break (March)...or you're going to have to wait till Summer, because classes are just having too much fun with me.

Neo Nobility has been revamped. All scripts finally work (after the switch to PHP5)...and the layout also works in all browser types. I implemented a few other scripts, such as the guestbook, automatic uploading of fanart, and password gates for the manga.

I've been swarmed with holiday gatherings, events, and such, which has left little time to work on NN. I'm still aiming for that January 7 deadline, but if it happens...just so you know...our new revamp will take a little longer to come out of production. Thanks and Happy New Year!

Sorry Neo Nobility is closed.







Just kidding! Although I've had 1/10 of my brain telling me to just leave it static, but no worries I'll be putting up a new layout and revamping 100%. I just can't get out of the groove that the old one was ruined by IE. Hopefully no one will be too disappointed with this new layout. (I will be trying to salvage the old one for future use with XHTML) So just give everyone a heads up, by the end of the year (definitely before Jan 7) there will be a newly revamped NN.

If it's not one thing it's another. I feel like my site is an old car that keeps breaking down somehow (first layout, then all the PHP because our server decided to switch to PHP5 and nothing works with it...it's like Vista! j/k). If you've been linking to the subdomain version of Neo Nobility you probably haven't seen any images loading. I've redirected it to the correct place, which I technically shouldn't have to since /neonobility is in the same folder. Mendoksai.

I have roughly finished the Helios information section at Neo Nobility, including the tweaked layout that works in IE6 now yay! Here's a sneak preview. (I wouldn't direct link to it since the /nn will be deleted when the revamp is done. It's just used as my test site.)

I am planning another much needed revamp at NN this winter break (especially since I decided not to go to HK for Christmas, it means much more time spent at home chillin'). Just a list of things that will occur...

- I really dislike most of the pre-made layouts I made, so many if not all of those will be scrapped and replaced with higher quality ones that I'm already working on.

- New information regarding past Queen Serenity, Helios, the Shintennou, Sailor Quartet. Altering existing information. I just don't want to mirror Wikipedia.

- Changing the URL to the manga downloads. It's getting a bit irksome how people direct link to that page.

- Fixing the layout to make it HTML instead of XHTML...it's going to look somewhat similar to the one that's up now, but also a little different =O

- Fix the quizzes. It's a version PHP issue, which means I need to find a new script.

I'll be changing the manga URL since so many people are direct linking to it.

I also put up the new Google Analytics to find out that 50% of my visitors still use IE 6.o, which means I might have to change the layout...

The quizzes are currently down. I think it has something to do with the PHP again. Might have to ask Dodo.

I've been contemplating to change the current layout because for some odd reason (probably my own noobness at XHTML) it doesn't work in IE 6.o and lower. I would have tried to fix it, but I have IE 7.o (which the layout works fine in) and I can't seem to downgrade to 6. In the meantime please update your IE to 7.o.

You can also tell I moved the updates over here because Cutenews was doing something funky to the comment system again. I hope it wasn't spam.

I also finally installed the planned change layout css skin (despite IE users sorry!). It's not PHPskin but basic CSS switching. (My favorite is Red) Enjoy.
