黒田和也 - Kuroda Kazuya gallery update

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:33:29 -0500

The Kuroda Kazuya gallery gets a full refresh. Now features 96 total images; some old ones have been replaced by better/cleaner versions (mostly coming from the Shimahokke artbooks).
Kuroda's main works are Vandread, Chrno Crusade, Princess Resurrection, Wolf & Spice, and hentai series like Sora no iro, mizu no iro and the recent 15 bishoujo hyouryuuki. He's also renowned for being the illustrator of BugBug magazine covers.

Megami Magazine Deluxe Gakken Mook vol. 13

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:33:29 -0500

I recently acquired the aforementioned magazine, debinded it, and scanned it. It contains images from various anime series, such as K-ON, Saki, Toradora and many others.

You can browse the images in this thread on the image board. 82 images, 300 dpi scans resized to 2400 px, without filters.

Some of the images are from anime series that I can't recognize; feel free to add the missing titles to the thread tags.

らき☆すた - Lucky Star gallery updated

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:33:29 -0500

The Lucky Star gallery gets 30-something new scans, and other old ones have been replaced with better, textless versions.

Updates will be halted during the next 2-3 weeks because I'm visiting Tokyo and I'm not bringing a PC. Next update will probably feature more Kazuya Kuroda. Check back soon!

-クラナド- CLANNAD gallery

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:33:29 -0500

New gallery on FC, featuring the romance/harem/highschool/whatever anime Clannad. Although I never personally managed to watch it, it's a very popular series, and there are lots of beautiful images around, so here it is: 117 images.

Among the 4 calendars in the new gallery, there is an incomplete one (which is missing 2 pages). I'll gladly add the missing images if anyone has them, just drop a comment here.

Popup tooltips everywhere!

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:33:29 -0500

With the aid of a nice little javascript library, I added some visual thingies around the site, mainly in the image board, which should help the user providing additional information.
While viewing the image board, hovering on a thread icon will show a tooltip containing a preview of the thread.

Inside a thread, every thumbnail will show a tooltip with the full image's resolution and size. Also, tooltips have been used to show possible errors while posting stuff (no more ugly javascript alerts, which is quite neat, try it out).

These functionalities should be extended to the galleries soon.

On a side note, 9 scans have been added to the Gurren Lagann gallery.

いとうのいぢ Noizi Ito gallery

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:33:29 -0500

Another famous japanese artist featured on FC: Ito Noizi (Itou Noiji, wikipedia page). She is quite renowned for being the illustrator of the Shakugan no Shana and Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu novels, and some other H-games. That's why the new gallery is divided into three sections, one for Shana, one for Haruhi, and one for all the other works (which I don't know well, so I couldn't sort them). Enjoy.

More Queen's Blade: Mirim

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:33:29 -0500

Yet another small artbook for the Queen's Blade gallery, featuring the blue-haired loli swordman Mirim. 32 new scans. Scroll to the very bottom of the Queen's Blade gallery, or follow the link above.

Little update on Dmyo and Mikeou

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:33:29 -0500

Two new little artbooks added, Tropical Honey by Mikeou Pink Chuchu (22 pages) and Dmyotic 4 by Dmyo (15 pages). The second one sports some nice Code Geass fanarts. Enjoy.

I also added a few little visual effects around the site using Scriptaculous (which is awesome). One of them is the smooth expanding/shrinking while viewing single images; please report me if it's too heavy, since I didn't test it on older computers.

Image board old posts back up

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:33:29 -0500

I finally managed to import almost all of the old image board threads; some of them had corrupted jpgs, so I couldn't recreate the thumbnails and have been partially/totally lost. I'll repost from scratch the ones that I had created, and I'm sorry for the other ones.

I think the new image board is very straightforward to use, but let me explain some points that might not be obvious.

The post deletion system is 4chan-alike. When you post a thread/comment, you can specify a password. You can then select your post, input your password again in the form at the bottom of the thread, and use the delete button. If you are the thread creator, you can input the password of the first post and use the delete thread button (without having to manually select the posts). If no password is entered while posting, the post is undeletable.
You can add tags to every thread. While viewing a thread, on the left column, enter some significant tags for the thread (i.e. for a K-ON thread, 'k-on', 'music', 'school girls', 'slice of life', 'kyoani'). Everyone can delete the tags and enter new ones. The administrators can approve the single tags, so that the delete icon will disappear from them. Once the thread has some tags, you can use the search function on the image board page and it will appear in the search results.

FerriCorp v6 (beta)

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:33:29 -0500

Hi, and welcome to the 6th installment of FerriCorp.

Basically, it's the same stuff with a different layout. You can access the other sections from the tabs on the site header. There is a lot of missing stuff right now, but it'll all be fixed in the next days (hopefully)

Now some notices. The maid in the header is just a placeholder. We'll probably get new cool mascots in the near future. Also the whole header graphichs might get improved.

The image galleries are now sorted by anime, artist and artbook, and a tag system will relate galleries together for fast access. You can still create avatars and cell phone wallpapers using the links while viewing the single images.

The image board, as I said previously, is brand new. I coded it from scratch, so it will most probably be improved after I see some 'real' usage of it. Users can post threads, add images, comments, tags and links to it. Mess with it to find out more.

The avatar and mobile wallpapers gallery now contain thumbnails that also link back to the gallery which they were created from. They're also sortable by resolution.

That's all - I'll post again if I need to report some more fixed things. Enjoy the new layout.

New layout incoming

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:33:29 -0500

The site updates are on halt until the new version of the site is ready.

Thenew FC will be pretty much the same, but with better contentdisposition, visibility and usability. The biggest change lies in theimage board, that will have a bigger role; it'll be a brand-new imageboard system, halfway between 4chan-type and danbooru-type.

Theforums will most likely be gone; it's not a great thing spending moretime in the admin panel to delete spambot posts, than reading theactual user posts. It will remain there in read-only mode until I savethe important posts. Actually, every public section of the forum isalready read-only.

I'll update this news to tell forecasts about when it will all be ready. Stay tuned.

クイーンズブレイド Queen's Blade 4th Gallery

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:33:29 -0500

Yet another gallery for the Queen's Blade series, somewhat celebrating the airing of the first episode of the TV series.

The images added this time are from

• Queen's Blade 18 artbook - Alleyne
• Queen's Blade 19 artbook - Ardra
• Queen's Blade Rebellion 1 artbook - Annelotte
• Queen's Blade Extra artbook - Mai Shiranui
• Queen's Blade 2007 School Calendar

Yes, Mai Shiranui from King of Fighters. Nothing too strange, as one of the previous extra artbooks featured Iroha from Samurai Spirits.

Happy browsing!

機動戦士ガンダム Mobile Suit Gundam SEED

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:33:29 -0500

Finally, here it is, the Mobile Suit Gundam SEED / SEED Destiny gallery. Over 350 new images.

Please note that there are no images focused on the various mecha; as every Sunrise series it had lots and lots (and lots) of images, so while browsing them I gave precedence to the ones featuring human characters (hot girls > mecha. Even though there are lots of boys in this gallery).

Small changes to the mobile wallpapers creator: now you don't have to explicitly save the wallpaper to the gallery. It gets saved automatically, you only get the option to delete it if you messed up. Same goes for the avatar creator.

Avatar creator

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:33:29 -0500

A new tool now functional, the avatar creator.
Parallel to the mobile wallpaper creator, its usage is the same, browse any image on FC and follow the 'create avatar' link. Click the 'show help' link inside the editor if you need it.

This is the icon to look for.

Try the avatar creator on a sample image clicking here.

For now, you can choose to output 100x100, 150x150, or 200x200 avatars, and add a border of any color around them. Once you create the avatar, it is automatically added to the avatar gallery, accessible from the right menu too.

西又葵 Aoi Nishimata

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:33:29 -0500

As announced in my previous Shuffle! update, here's the gallery about the artist, Aoi Nishimata. She's an eroge artist for the company Navel, along with Hiro Suzuhira.

It's out of doubt that her designs are very uniforn, with all the characters resembling each other a lot (except for the hair), so you might like them all, or be sick of them. You have 250 pics to find it out.

Small news: I'm testing stuff in the wallpaper creator, precisely avatar creation. 100x100 and 200x200 avatars available for now; I will most likely make a separate editor and gallery page for mobile wallpapers/avatars in the near future. I'm also planning to put an option for adding borders around the avatar. Suggestions welcome.
