20 August 2005 Major Site Update NEW LAYOUT! After spending countless and countless hours, I've finally been able to update the whole Chibi Land into v4 layout which I designed and created myself (First layout I've ever created for Chibi land). I'm sooooooo sleepy at the moment that I think I'll post more tomorrow (and its really late at the moment) *yawn* I sill have 2 or 3 pages which needs the update, and the splash page... but everything else is up and running!
Go check it out ^_^ Comments are much appreciated. I'll write more tomorrow.

Now to talk about v4 layout I've used the previous one v3.0 Falling Stars for about 2-3years- Now thats a very long time indeed. It was created by Sara Beth of GRU. I didn't know much about making layouts and coding as such, and therefore just left it for that period of time. After the move from angelfire to secret-star.net and that huge update- I haven't updated Chibi Land as much~ which is why I decided it was time for a whole makeover. One of my subjects in my course at Uni is Web Authoring, and there~ I learned quite a bit about HTML coding and the use of css. Finally decided to put some of that knowledge into practice, and now we have v4 The layouts are made up of div layers and no tables. I sat in front of my PC for almost 2 days straight designing, coding and making new graphics for each page. The site is about 95% complete in terms of transition to the new layout. There are still a few pages which have yet to be updated, Eg- Quiz Awards, Awards 4 U,Contest Page and the splash page~ I'll get around to doing that when I can. Oh yes, the Chibi Sailor Moon displayed on the main layout was also a new drawing which I did on the 18 August 05- based off Takeuchi Naoko's new drawings For the graphics, I have used the combination of PhotoStudio, PhotoShop and Fireworks (probably don't need to use that many, but I just found some more convenient to do certain things) Layout has been tested on IE and Firefox.. on IE it looks perfectly fine, but on FireFox it tends to look a a little strange. Some div layers overlap others and such. Donno why that is the case.

21st August 2005The voting has begun, and all members should head over to the Contest board On another note, I finally have the splash page up, and all the pages which previously have not been updated has ^^ However, a lot of the Chibi Cuties from the previous layout have not been included in this version yet... The reason being- some of the Chibi Cuties are very old, and the quality of them just doesn't seem to match those that are more recent. Some images are also too small. I'm planning to perhaps redraw some of them and then display them. What am I going to do with old ones? I might display them in my fanart section, I'm not too sure yet.

23 August 2005The other two Chibi Animamates have arrived ^^ I was a little reluctant drawing Chibi Iron Mouse next the Tin Cat XD (Cause we all know Tin is evol! XD) But oh wells... she still looks cute and cheeky (even though those two never interact in the series). They've replaced the Chibi Trio in the Music Theatre. chibiland.secret-star.net/music.html

26 August 2005Chibi Land site update! I added a whole new section on "How to Draw Chibis" I hope it's useful and easy to follow ^_^ Spent about 5 hours compiling the tutoral~ feels odd since it doesn't normally take me that long to draw a chibi. Neverthless, please check it out, and feedback is much appreciated. chibiland.secret-star.net/howtodraw.html

31st August 2005Looky! These emoticons are back! I've been making additions to the forum again ^^ -When you receive a new PM, the words will start flashing for a bit~ this is so you can see easier when you have a new PM. If there are any concerns, please let me know. -When you post a message, or reply to one- (excluding the quick reply) It will show you how many characters left you can post. Sometimes we type a lot (such as stories, or in RPG logs) and tend to exceed the max word limit. I think this will be useful ^_^
