Another update journal watchers bonus? Just a little list of character shrines that I'm working on. Spring break is looking to be pretty productive, projects-wise, provided I don't get swallowed whole by my PSP jRPG remake addiction. *coughlunarcough*

- OTP shrine is roughly 70% done? It's to a male/male couple, by the way. Scandalous, I know. 8D I doubt I'm the only person that is doing a yaoi shrine for this marathon, though.
- Shrine to a certain character from the Percy Jackson & the Olympians books. I'm really excited about this project and have almost finished the layout.
- Shrine to a certain character from Lunar: Silver Star Harmony. I actually may end up shrining more than one character from this game because the game doesn't get enough love despite the cast being absolutely amazing.
- Shrine to a certain Starry☆Sky character. I'll bet none of you saw this coming. /sarcasm
- My Shishido shrine, lol. YOU KNOW WHAT, I HAD A DREAM ABOUT THIS SHRINE LAST NIGHT. I had a dream that someone on my flist opened a shrine to Shishido and I was like "Well now I can never put mine up" or something. Needless to say, I woke up feeling very confused. I guess I ought to finish it so it stops tormenting me so.

I'm also kind of toying with the idea of doing a Yukino (Kare Kano) shrine and having it sort of overlap with Furtivus. But while I do like Yukino, I don't think I could say nearly as much about her as I did about Arima, so the imbalance would drive me nuts. /ocd about stupid things

If you're in the mood for reading, I've started to compile a bookmark list of my favorite shrines here. So check it out and read a new shrine and/or get inspired! :D So far there's about 50 shrines listed, which is. A lot of reading material, haha. I'm always adding more, too~

That's about it for now, so thanks for watching karmacoded! ♥

New layout! I had to re-write all the pages. :| I added a shrine bookmarks page where I plug shrines ... It's a work-in-progress so don't think that the page will stay that small forever. I kind of went insane with the Prototip usage since I've had the license to use the script for so long and yet never bothered to do so. |D Most pages have at least one Prototip hidden somewhere, so hover over everything! You never know where one might be lurking.

... well, if you View Source, it's pretty easy to find out, but come on, that takes the fun out of it.

Don't forget to check out the mixtape (on the index where it says START THE MUSIC). It's meant to be background music while you're browsing through my domain. :3


Cause & Effect is my newest shrine, dedicated to my favorite Whistle! character, Fuwa Daichi. I really love this kid. For a while I thought he might overtake Kyoya as my favorite character ever, but that obviously didn't happen. |D

I'm on this sports manga kick lately, so don't be surprised if you see a lot of shrines along that vein over the next couple of weeks.

edit; I've adopted Marauder (Locke Cole, Final Fantasy VI) and Outshined (Frog, Chrono Trigger) from Alex of Leknaat.org, so expect those up soonish?

I've got a gigantic update today. Also be sure you check out the new layout here at karmacoded. ♥ It features my favorite three shrines at the top~


First off a new domain layout, finally! That Persona 4 one lasted quite a while, didn't it? ...Actually, there are two new domain layouts. There's a larger, more graphics-intensive one featuring my characters from vastlands, first off. It's very wide, so your screen is going to have to be more than 1100px wide if you want to avoid the sidescroll. But it's got lots of stuff to read through, I guess, and it's definitely more ... shiny? XD

The second layout is a one-page, simple layout featuring my beloved Kyoya Ootori. It's teeny, so any resolution should be fine. There's a bit of exclusive info on that layout, too, though, so you really should check out both if you want the full Fated.nu experience. ;DD

I also have a slew of new affiliates, so do be sure you check 'em all out, though a number of them are sadly on hiatus. ):

NEW SHRINES:
Most of my friends know about these already but I wanted to wait until the domain layout was up before plugging these, that's why I'm only now updating this journal about these. Both new shrines are pretty text-intensive and have no media. ;x

- A Crow Left of Murder: my new shrine to Rei Kashino of the psychological shoujo manga, MARS. It's very heavy and the organization is a little different than people may be used to, but I thought this would be more effective considering the character, so there you have it.

- Bones: my new shrine to Luke fon Fabre from the game (and now anime) Tales of the Abyss. Very very heavy in the essay department. I figured it was about time Luke had a proper tribute because pretty much every other Abyss character has one. ;__; I've been working on this for months, but finally finished a couple days ago.
