After something like two years, Furtivus finally has a brand new layout! It's nice and fresh and spring-y, and a great change after the last two super dark layouts. I hope everyone reads the layout page because it was a very arduous process that resulted in a layout that I am extremely proud of, so. ;_;

I was using a really archaic coding style at the time, so after painstakingly working on the layout, I had to go through and revise a lot of the code. I also started going through and fixing up the pages, but so far have only finished the Queen of Vanity section because I am lazy and this shrine is a behemoth. In that section, there have been slight wording changes and the like, but overall nothing has changed.

I am planning on adding two or three new pages very soon and will be editing this post once that's been completed. I'm just really burnt out at the moment, lol.

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.

OTHER SITE UPDATES:

UPCOMING:
( drumroll please )

Well this isn't quite the epic update I had in mind, but I kind of lost momentum so I'll try and work on the other shrines later this week if I have time.


This is a lot more epic compared to the last layout. I re-wrote a lot of stuff (see the FAQ!) and there's a little soundtrack to go with the layout, too. All in all, a pretty fun update. For some reason the siblings page seemed to take the longest. 0_o Anyway, sorry if any of you were expecting a more ... I dunno, complex layout? I went the simple route this time.


People on my flist have already seen this, but I finished my shrine to Arima Souichirou of Kareshi Kanojo no Jijou fame earlier this morning after weeks upon weeks of work. There is a loooot of information and a fairly decent gallery that I scanned from my character book, so. I think this is the star of my domain right now, haha. Do give it a look see and tell me what you think!
