We’ve got a brand-new site layout! Though I’m pretty sure you’ve already noticed. It’s not 100% done yet, but it’s good enough that we figured we could switch to it now. Feel free to let us know if something is broken, or if you have any feedback. If you do provide feedback, please check the very bottom of the page, and note whether it’s HTML 5 or XHTML, as that makes a big difference in how we find and fix problems.

The layout has been tested in Chrome 7, Firefox 3.6, Firefox 4 beta 7, Safari 5 and IE 8. It looks mostly right in Opera 10.60, but hasn’t been tested in versions older than that. Since Opera is almost as bad as IE when it comes to rendering things all wonky, fuck that. If you have an issue with Opera, unless you include a drop-in fix that doesn’t break rendering in other browsers, keep it to yourself because we don’t care. Also, I should probably note that the new layout hasn’t been tested at all in IE 7 or earlier (not just not tested, I haven’t even opened it up in anything earlier than IE 8). Also, in the near future, IE 6 and older will be blocked from viewing the site at all.

Comments are broken at the moment though. For some reason they were working on the development server, and aren’t here. It’s being worked on.

Edit: Comments are working now.

Status update, please. When will the chapter 11 of Rotte no Omocha be out?

‘Sup. Rotte is in the middle of being typeset. It would have been finished and gone to QC today, but my computer’s hard drive died (“unrecoverable” bad blocks. 46 of them, to be precise. This is the second of two identical Seagate 500 GB drives. Both went bad within weeks of each other…). The drive has been on the way out for awhile now, so I ordered a replacement last week. UPS decided to ship it to New York instead of Oregon, and there’s no ETA. So I bought another new drive at the local Best Buy today. The dead drive has been recovering to the new drive all day, and there’s *checks* 2,048 bytes left as of now (4 blocks, for those counting). It’s been working on those 4 blocks since about 2 or 3 PM (it’s 10 PM now). Hopefully it will be finished by tomorrow morning, at which point I will finish typesetting, and if we can get a translator script check and QC done tomorrow, then release will be tomorrow. If it’s not finished by tomorrow morning, then fuck those blocks, and here’s hoping nothing important (if anything at all) was on them.

Delicious Imouto should be out tomorrow, too.

At some point we’ll have a sidebar that shows each chapter currently in-progress, and what stage it’s at.

So I was looking through the photos on my iPhone, and came across this. No idea what manga it was, or where I saw it, nor do I remember reading it, but I lol’ed:


You know you lol’ed.

That is all.
