I want to profusely apologize to my hostees for the current state of their sites here at Swordian. Our current host is taking their time in resolving the issue. T_T Gomen everyone.

We’re currently having a lot of issues with the new server. It’s been a week-long headache. Your patience please.

And we’re back…

Oh gawds. New layout! *trumpets blaring* It took up the better half of the day in making this new layout. Not because of the graphics, mind you. Again, it was my failing in CSS. I even asked Michan on how to get it right but in the end I remembered that I made something similar in a previous site I had before. *kicks self*

My feeling towards the new layout? I want to smoosh it! Yes, there’s no such word, so bear with me. The inspiration for this had been a long time coming, with browsing on a whole lot of sites for inspiration and even pictures. The cat pictures you saw before are the unfortunate products of my designing block. I even rummaged through my stash of stationeries, which horrifies me to admit that I still have today. And in truth the layout does remind me of a stationery letterhead. ^^

Sidenote: I still haven’t figured out something witty to put in the Girl section up top. Poke me if you have any ideas. And, though I’ve already checked them, if there are some areas that look awry, let me know.

So is there a purpose for this rant? Well, I still have an addition, no matter how measly. Here’s an avatar of Tamaki Suou of Ouran Koukou Host Club. ^^

I was trying to find some inspiration to make a new layout for Swordian but it seems that today wasn’t the day. Though I did find very interesting pictures that made me smile. They’re all of adorable kittens and puppies. ^^ Click on the images below for a bigger image. Beware of the cuteness!
