OtakuFiles: Archive Project
top border

I've got a new baby! Er, a new web site, that is. ... It's a project I've been thinking about doing for quite a while now, but just never got around to. (I basically just do web design whenever I feel like it, when I'm not doing it for someone else, so projects can end up sitting idle for a good while. And yes, that applies to Rupee Shards, which was also hindered before by a lack of knowing exactly what I wanted with it, but I'm still thinking about it.) Wow, that's a lot in parenthesis. ... Moving along, this new site is sort of an evolution of my old OB Picture Archive site. Except that no member pictures will be featured on it -- I'm leaving that to Queen Asuka's OB Picture Archive.

What will be on OtakuFiles then? Well, you could click that link and see for yourself the sections I have planned for it, but I'm betting half the people that are reading this are too lazy to do so. You'll be missing out, though, because besides just the layout being up for viewing, I also got both the Liquid and Geisha skins working. Yeah, that's right: I've got alternate color schemes for the site, to match OB's two skins. It's awesome -- go try it out, and tell me if you have any problems with it. I've encountered one little bug with it in IE, but it hasn't happened at all regularly, so I don't know if it's actually an error in the code or just IE's normal screwiness.

So far, the site's been a lot of fun to work on. I intentionally went with a simple (read: single column) layout so that design work wouldn't take nearly as much time as it did with Rupee Shards, letting me focus more time in the actual workings of the site, like the alternate skins, and putting up content. And thanks again to Alan for helping me out with the PHP. I learn best by example, so it's nice to have someone around that knows what they're doing, heh.
