Peachy Project Updates

Now that we are quickly approaching our second Will, Strife and Ayu-Vogue discography update deadline, I figure it's time for an explanation as to what I've been up to.

After spending the better part of six months on a thesis, I graduated last June and thought I'd have a couple of months off to leisurely make updates here. That has obviously not been the case. At this time, I do not foresee any significant content updates being made until September at the earliest. Will will take the backseat to Strife.

I appreciate your patience and hope to have a better game plan (and something to show for it) later this year.

Strife, Will, and the Peachy Projects list have been updated to reflect this prolonged informational hiatus. Fanlistings will continue to be updated regularly.

Classes begin again today and the Peach-Arrow Network will again enter it's semi-comatose state (not that it was updated much over the break). Fanlistings and Ayu news will continue to be updated regularly, and I'll continue to chip away at the new content at Strife until I have time to really invest in my projects.

Ayu-Vogue has been the only site consistently updated through the break with news updates, including one today.

Peach-Arrow Network

• Peach-Arrow
  • updated Instinct's listing and a few housekeeping proble
• Instinct
  • Complete identity overhaul
  • Removed the media and discography after official site revamp rendered them irrelevant

Also, now that it's been up for a few years, the Affiliate Request Post has been cleaned out so as to keep replies relevant and uncluttered. If you'd like to affiliate with any of the Peach-Arrow Network fanlistings, please comment on that post. You do not need a LiveJournal account to comment.

Ayu-Vogue Network

• Ayu-Vogue
  • Re-formated and cleaned out the links page
  • Added a link to the 10th Anniversary Digital Museum in the PV guide
• and then
  • updated with a-nation 08 info

You probably already noticed the new format here and in the account profile.

Peach-ArrowNET has been pretty dormant for the last few months. I figure it's time to check in and make sure we're all on the same page.

No, Peach-ArrowNET and its family of sites have not been abandoned. I'm still working on things, but real life commitments (as they say) have slowed the progress. I am in the midst of a heavy academic quarter and will continue to attend classes through next spring (hopefully not so many at a time).

Because the Current Projects page is a more generalized, idealistic projection than anything else, here's an outline of what's actually being worked on:

1. Currently Peach-ArrowNET is getting streamlined so as to make both updating and navigating the site list easier. This will probably (hopefully) be uploaded by the end of the month
2. Instinct is having its discography revamped. A better layout should follow eventually, but I make no promises.
   
3. Gloriosa's image galleries are being transferred to Gallery2 (see Ayu-VogueNET's gallery for an example). Making the whole domain public has been put on the backburner for awhile to focus on other projects.
4. Ayu-VogueNET's shopping guide is being re-organized and dramatically amended to make it easier to navigate and more comprehensive
5. Strife will have Crisis Core and 10th Anniversary Ultimania updates by July.
6. When I feel Strife is in decent shape, Melody and Forget Me Not will receive their due attention.

The quarter ends in early June. Although the annual magazine has been shipped out to the printer, proof approved, etc, I still have four papers to finish by the end of the quarter. Do not expect any major updates until mid-June. 

Fanlistings and Ayu-Vogue.net's news blog will continue to be updated regularly.

Thanks for your patience!

The Purple Abomination grew tiresome, thus a new layout here. It's essentially the pre-made "Bloggish" theme with 10% more pink. Maybe I'll work on it more. Probably not.

It's that time of year again. Peach-ArrowNET, Midgar-RockORG, Ayu-VogueNET and hosted fansites are officially on HIATUS starting Monday, November 26th. The hiatus is tentatively scheduled to end Thursday, December 6th.

Fanlistings will continue to be updated, as will the Ayu news blog when appropriate. In the meantime, check out the update poll if you haven't already.

Leaving on a jet plane stuffy bus; see you kids Tuesday.

cloud_smiles girls, could you please check the post below?

Edit: best headline ever.

Gone for the weekend!  See you kids on Monday!

Happy birthday pirateduo!

(yay my connection's working!)

Hiatus


Until sometime next week. Or sooner if you want to help carry a couch.

Public update on what's going on: I'm in the middle of moving offline as well as re-arranging everything online, so I'm sorry actual updates have been pretty slow.

In the meantime, Animato Radio has a new rotation, and Vogue will hopefully have one this weekend.

I wasn't sure when to "unveil" it since it has next to nothing on it, but I've set up a Google Calendar for Ayu's releases. Although I'm the only one who can add events and I'm still ironing out all the... maintenance issues, it's pretty much open to anyone to link and reference as they like.

Moving tomorrow and not packed. See you kids Saturday some time next week (with actual updates!).

Er, don't mind the mess

Edit: scratch that; 'didn't like the layout, but I promise this will look decent someday...!

A little update as to what's going on around the network.

I'll be moving back into the dorms on Monday and starting classes on Tuesday. My schedule is much busier this quarter than it was last quarter, so I don't know how updates will play, but I am determined to force a new Forget Me Not layout into existence by the end of the month.

I am scanning magazines for Vogue as we speak, so those will probably be uploaded either today or later in the week. I just ordered the CD+DVD version of the "REDEMPTION" and "Passion" singles, so expect screen captures (at least for "REDEMPTION") later in the month. As most of you probably know, Ayu's latest album (miss) understood has already shipped. I've resisted downloading any of the new PVs and songs, so all of those updates will be made as soon as I get my copy (probably next week?).

Happy New Year, everyone!

Merry Christmas everyone (and if I don't get on later tonight, Happy Hanukkah! :p)

( Gifts! )

Minor change in design around here because I was getting tired of the old look. I really need to figure out how to make styles myself, but I suppose this will do for now.

Actual updates to come later.

Guess who caved and bought a paid LJ account? Now I need to figure out the layouts...

New members to Lamb, 7th Heaven, and Gospel Decay. More updates to come later.

Affiliate terra is in the process of moving to Astarael.net, and all (most?) links have been changed accordingly. I also went through the links list and added some new linkage buttons.

Quick little update that will hopefully be followed by a larger one this evening or tomorrow.

Gospel Decay has a new member, profiles for Kadaj, Yazoo, Loz, and Rufus, and information on Gackt. I also re-arranged and deleted some old files, so let me know if you come across any broken links.

Gloriosa has some lovely new donated BC icons. Expect a Dirge of Cerberus update later.

Instinct has a new affiliate, and ayu-mi-x has a new member, bringing the total count to 111.
