Oh my gosh! It's a update!

Last Update: 02/02/2003

If you want to skip my boring rant, jump to the bottom of the page.

Ah yes, the bitter irony. After ranting about how much F- City blew one and a half years ago, here I am updating this site. There's nothing like the taste of eating your own words...

Why the change of heart you wonder? Well, let me outline the chain of events:

1. 28/01/2000: Abandonned F-City to join the Zerion bandwagon. Oh happy days! Finally a site with no annoying banners, and image/filename restrictions.
2. ??/??/200?: Zerion dies a bloody death. Webmaster of Zerion annouces that resurrection will cost US$10 per month. Was still a starving uni student - had no income to pay for such a come back. Bye bye, libbie.zerion.com!
3. ??/??/2001: Last year of uni, concentrated on studies and club activities. Available time for personal projects = zero. New fan art count for the year = one or two. There was really no point crawling back to F-City at this time.
4. 19/03/2002: Started working. Prior to that too busy looking for work. Time allocated for playing with new toys (acquired through brand new job) = 60%. Time allocated for projects for people other than myself = 20%. New fan art count = zero. Can't be bothered crawling back now.
5. ??/??/2002: System crash! Data from HDD could not be salvaged! $#*! my pictures, my picture----s!!!! ;_;
6. ??/??/2002: Too depressed after that to do anything about my web site.
7. ??/??/2002: Still too depressed to do anything about my web site.
8. ??/??/2002: Shimmer of hope! Good old mir still had some of the pictures I did while I was an exec at AnimeUNSW!
9. 02/02/2002: No more new toys to play with (although Legaia 2 is still unfinished). Backlog of origi-art coming from club-related "special" projects. Backlog of fan art coming from recent anime series that have really impressed me. I guess it's finally time to crawl back to F-City... -_-

So, that pretty much sums it up. The effects of the system crash that killed all my lovely pictures, plus a number of other things that I've hoarded over the past year and a half or so, will not be fully assessed until I salvage the data from the old Hewlett Packard. Fortunately for me, half of the data came from there. I just hope it's safe and sound.

An important rule in computing, but one that is rarely followed (by me anyway):

Make backups, dammit!

Now then, down to business. Here are the new features:

• Anime & Manga Fan Art:
• Video Games Fan Art:
• Origi-Art: (directly linked)

There's a lot more to do, but making a complete re-vamp would probably take weeks. I wanted a quick update (as in one day), so I've pretty much kept to the format of the old site. Man this site is really old... I've forgotten just how old this site was compared to the Zerion one before it died... ~_~;;

One last thing: I can no longer afford to do request art for anyone. I apologise to the people who asked for request art and never got them — unforunately studies and work take first priority.
