Date: Sunday, May 10, 2009 Sections: Cels Info: First update of '09. I'm a bit slow about it. Another small update, with 10 more cels uploaded, but one big on quality. 3 new cels from VoH that all fill me with joy, 2 more for Slayers, 2 from Ryuu Knight, 1 from Hell Teacher Nube, and 2 from Ginga Nagareboshi Gin. I also finally got rid of the hideous alternating table colours here on the update page. They were ugly and I knew it. There was no reason for such an eyesore. It's still not pretty, but at least now it matches the cel page.

Date: Sunday, December 28, 2008 Sections: Cels Info: It's a real update! It's a fairly small update, but it includes some new favourites. I am particularly excited about the two new cels in the Violinist of Hameln section, a new Ranma 1/2 cel, several Slayers cels, and enough new cels to make a page for Big O's Dastun. I've also added a new section for rilezu, although there are only a few so far. I hope to reorganize the front page soon. It's a bit out of hand and not particularly balanced. Unfortunately, that will have to wait until I have a little more time.

Date: Monday, December 15, 2008 - Saturday, December 20, 2008 Sections: Cels, and most other. Info: Hello again, Internet. Most of what I wanted to say is now included in the introduction section at the top of the cel page. This update isn't bringing any new content, just tweaking the old. I am in the process of going page-by-page through the gallery and editing the text. I will not be changing the descriptions, as a general rule, since I prefer to keep them as they were originally intended, so as to preserve my initial impressions. I am, however, attempting to fix any of the broken images or coding as I come along it, and removing a metric shit-tonne of random emoticons, typographical errors, et cetera. I do have a number of cels to add to the site eventually, but that will have to wait for a new scanner. 12/19 - All pages are now updated. I'm sure I've still missed some typos; there were enough pages to go through that I only scanned through each. I ordered a scanner today. If I'm particularly motivated, I might have the new cels updates some time before the new year. I have also removed most of the non-cel content from the site. I apologize to anyone who has attempted to contact me in the past several years via the site's listed email. I am no longer using that account. All current correspondence should be directed to my new email address, which is "guitarella" and which is at comcast.net. Piece those together and you should be able to reach me.

Date: Tuesday, February 08, 2005 Sections: Cels Info: Once again, it's been quite a long time since my last update. However, I haven't as many cels to update this time around. I'm finishing up with my final year of veterinary medical school, and finances have been tight. I was able to take a trip to AX last summer, which was the source of many of the cels from this update. After AX, I went on a long cel-hiatus, with the exception of one (very lovely) purchase from Mandarake's Big Web Auction. 33 cels for today's update, bringing the gallery total (if my math is correct) up to 1847. I bet something important happened in the year 1847. I couldn't tell you what -- let's make that your homework assignment, shall we? This update is dedicated to the absolutely-faboo, lovely, and wonderful yaten, without whom I would not have two shiny, lovely new GUITAR CELS. T_T (Note to self: Firstborn child -> yaten). There's also one other homygoodness cel updated to the VoH TV section, and a Big O cel with which I am quite enamoured. Many new Powerstone opening (JACK!) credits cels, as well. A couple of beautiful cels up in the Tenshi ni Narumon section, several new VHD: Bloodlust cels, and a few assorted others which -- as usual -- may be found by the sections marked with an asterisk ("*"). It's also time, once again, for a layout-image update. I finally made it through all the title categories (villains, masked men, and the horribly disfigured,) and figured it might be nice to move on to the pretty folks...because I do collect those too. Sometimes.

Date: Tuesday, June 15, 2004 Sections: Cels Info: Well, it was going on half a year since my last update, so I figured it was high time. ^^; That, and I finally got a bit of time off. (For those that don't know, I'm in my final year of vet school, and we don't get any sort of summer vacation. They also keep us rather busy.) Not as huge an update as some I've had in the past; I've lost my main job and tuition keeps going up. I haven't had a lot of funds to spend on cels lately, but I've still managed to snag a number of items with which I'm quite pleased. 237 new cels this time around. The vast majority of these clock in from -- no surprise -- Ryuu Knight. Notable among these are more banks, more Op cels, and more backgrounded & oversized cels. Another fairly large Powerstone (Jack!) cel update, as well as many from Mon Colle Knights. In addition, I've managed to snag some very nice Jubei-chan cels including several Ending credits cels and one bank sequence shot, and some lovely Violinist of Hameln TV & Movie cels. I'm especially pleased at how my Meitantei Holmes collection is growing; can't get enough Moriarty cels! Other notable items include some fantastic Slayers cels (I'm positively giddy,) a test-hanken of Hinoto, and another Shishio cel...even though I promised I wouldn't. Just couldn't resist. There are a handful of other cels up, but as always updated areas are marked with asterisks...so I can just shut up and let you browse. ^^

Date: Saturday, January 10, 2004 Sections: Cels Info: In an unheard-of bit of action on my part, I've actually finished the revision of old descriptions. I didn't re-write anything, as I wished to preserve the timely (read: insane and pointless) descriptions. For the most part, I corrected a few typos, removed some comments which were no longer applicable, and deleted very many unneeded emoticons. About 2/3 of the way through, I realized I should probably have updated the long-forgotten "NFS" tags, but I was too lazy to go back and re-start my work. Perhaps another day. I'm going to get started on the next update, tonight. I still don't foresee the update happening any time this month, but I'd at least like to get it under way. In all likelihood, I'll wait until I get a few more packages in before I get down to serious work, though.

Date: Friday, January 09, 2004 Sections: Cels Info: Not so much an update as an announcement of the intention to update. I do have a fair number of cels that I need to update; at this point, I have most scanned and thumbnails prepared, but no descriptions written. I'm not sure how long this might take, but this portion may be somewhat postponed. It has come to my attention that the rest of the page is sorely out of date. Many descriptions no longer apply (ex: A description of "This is my only cel of __" right above four more cels of said character,) and I've also seen typographical errors on various pages. It is my first goal to go back through all the old descriptions and correct/update errors as I find them. I've also noticed some misliking, or omittance of certain links; this will probably be corrected with the next update, since I will have to rework those portions at that time. I should also note that I am horribly behind on email, and since my provider deletes emails automotically if they are over a month old, I have lost some emails before I was able to reply. If anyone has sent me an email, and I have not replied, I am very sorry. My email and I have a very distant relationship, and I daresay we've been doing our best to avoid each other. I'll do my best to catch up on what email I yet have. If I have not/do not reply to you, I truly am sorry. It isn't you I intended to ignore; I never intentionally ignore/don't reply to emails. I'm just very, very bad about it. =(

Date: Monday, October 13, 2003 Sections: Cels Info: Well, it was about time I got myself around to updating again! ^^; This is turning into a bi-annual event.. 196 new cels, this time around. (This brings the gallery total to 1577 cels, give or take a counting-error here and there.) The bulk of this update comes in the Mon Colle Knights and Ryuu Knight pages, but there are new cels from a variety of series. Highlights include some gorgeous new Psychic Force cels, many more Ryuu Knight bank and opening cels, a few lovely Bakuretsu Hunter game cels, a cel of Graham (Shamanic Princess) at long last, some Samurai Spirits cels, a cel of Justin from Secret of NIMH, and of course...a ton of cute MCK cels. ^^; As always, pages with new cels are marked with an "*" Have a look around, and enjoy your stay. ^^ With any luck, the next update will be a little quicker in coming; I've already got a few cels waiting to be scanned, and more on the way. ^^

Date: Thursday, March 20, 2003 Sections: Cels Info: Hopefully this update will be up and available to the public by the 21st, in a grand gift to myself. *ahem* Well, I finally bought a new scanner some months back, and I've caught up on scanning those cels acquired since September '02 (with at least three known exceptions; a few cels which arrived shortly before I moved were tucked away with the rest of the collection for the duration of the move, and I haven't dug them out yet. ^^;) As such, this is...yet another big update. 332 items new to the site, including 5 backgrounds, and 327 cels. Yeesh. As always, pages with new cels have been marked with an asterisk (*) though I may have missed some. Please also note that for the time being, the NFS notations are really out of date, as I ended up forgetting to put them on the new cels. ^^; Lots of goodies with which I'm incredibly pleased. ^^; I love this update; don't I always? Tons of new Ryuu Knight cels, including more banks, some oversized cels, and a bunch of backgrounded cels, and a new cel of young OAV Sarutobi. Gulden finally gets his own pages! The Harmony cel finally gets put up! On the Powerstone front, I was finally able to scan in the Opening & Ending cels I got a while back, along with some other very nice shots. A new group cel with Guitar (because it had been far too long) a bunch of new MCK cels (lots of oversized) a ton more Beast Wars cels.. ^^; A few new Tennimon cels I'm in love with, some Meitantei Holmes cels of Moriarty (Whoo!) and JoJo cels of Iggy. Finally got some Steam Detectives cels (Thanks, Cindy!) more Di Gi Charat (Rik!) some pan cels (YAT & Silent Moebius) and the hair cel, from Cutey Honey. Heck, just look around. ^^;

Date: Wednesday, January 29, 2003 Sections: Cels Info: Very tiny update of sorts.. ^^;; Updated my wishlist, and colour coordinated the wishlist & sale pages with the main page. ...really not much. I still haven't made it to scan any of my new cels, so a real update isn't going to be happening any time in the very-near future, anyway.. I'm considering buying a scanner, though, so updates could be more regular if that happens.

Date: Monday, January 20, 2003 (8:06pm) Sections: Cels Info: Argh. It's a very long story -- I got all the HTML written up for an update in early October, but decided to wait on one more batch of cels to arrive to add to that update. In the end, I have yet to scan those new cels, many, many other problems arose which kept me from updating, and this update is long overdue.. 195 new cels in this update, in various sections (see below.) I should note, however, that these are only the cels which were pending update in October. I have not been able to scan anything since that time, and so I have many more cels in the wings.. Since it could be a while before I can scan them, I decided I would update what I have, and then worry about catching up later. So...new cels, and a brand-spanking new layout! Please...excuse the new menu layout. It was a random idea that I thought would turn out well; I ended up messing around with it for ages, because I hated the way it looked, and took so long that I just couldn't bring myself to scrap it entirely. I still hate it. I will change it again whenever I have time to figure out something else.. Now, then, there are 195 new cels, so where are they? There are new cels in many of the Ryuu Knight pages; most Mon Colle Knights pages have been updated, as well. Other points of note include my first Rurouni Kenshin cel (featured in the new banner at top) an Irresponsible Captain Tylor hanken, a smattering of new Powerstone cels, a slew of Cyberstar cels, a few Big O cels (including my Dorothy wishlist cel!) and a few other misc. items. Feel free to have a look around. (All pages with new cels are marked with an "*") Finally, as the HTML was written in October, and I lost all of the thumbnails for the update and had to redo them all in the interim, there could be some problems with mislinked images.. I've also long forgotten whether there was anything I knew needed changing around at the time. I'll try to keep an eye out for broken links and errors, but feel free to let me know if you find any. Oh, yeah...and the 'for sale' pages have been taken down, and the wishlist has been updated. ^^;;

Date: Sunday, September 15, 2002 (3:30pm) Sections: Cels for Sale, Cels Info: Minor update, today. I've added 4 pages worth of cels for sale, so please do check out the Sales Page. I'm working with a deadline, so I'd like to sell as quickly as possible. I haven't pulled all the cels out yet, so if you've got any question on the condition, please ask; I've only written in information from memory. If you want to know about sketches or the like, I'll either get the information up soon, or else you're welcome to inquire. I can also negotiate on prices, especially for multiple-cel purchases. If things don't sell soon, I'll probably have to resort to eBay, which isn't good for anyone. =( I may also put a few more cels up soon. In totally unrelated news, I've updated several of the Ryuu Knight pages with episode information; no new cels yet, though a few cels have been shuffled around to different pages.

Date: Monday, September 9, 2002 (6:45pm) Sections: Cels Info: Another fairly big update this time around! All summer the computer labs were on limited hours, and since I was working full time I had to wait for the semester to start up and the labs to go back to normal hours to scan the new cels I've been building up. And yes, I'm still without home internet access, but I'm persevering! 95 new cels as of this update (which, with 55 Cyberstar cels I've yet to scan, and 2 cels newly arrived, makes a total of 937 cels in my collection.) No layout update, this time, just because I haven't had a chance to work up something that seems more practical than this system, which allows me to keep track of the number of cels per page (indicated by the "[#]") and mark pages with new cels ("*"). Hopefully there should be a new layout before long, though. Check out the list for new cels in a variety of sections; several sections have also been switched around a bit to alleviate the overcrowding problem, and in response to new information. I also fixed a few mislinked pages, so they should be available now. I've realized that I'm going to need to sell some cels off to recover some of my savings spent on recent aquisitions, and so please keep an eye out for cels on sale in the near future! As much as I hate to part with any of my 'babies' I've overextended myself, realistically, on what I can afford to spend on them for the time being, especially with classes back in session and me back to working part-time. I'm not really doing any official 'offer taking' as I've come to the conclusion that I generally don't want to sell most of my cels for any price, but you're still welcome to give it a shot if there's something you're interested in. Please also note that as I've finally seen all of the Ryuu Knight TV series, I've started the very long process of IDing all of my cels; however, it isn't done yet, as I haven't quite had the time. I'll keep working on it in the meantime. ^^

Date: ? 2002 Sections: Cels Info: Rather minor update to the cel pages.. Huge thanks go out to IX for bringing to my attention that I'd mislinked my e-mail address on about half of the cel pages. Eek. That's been fixed. I also fixed a mislinked image and updated my wishlist with some new items and a ranking system for how 'wanted' a cel is. I hope to add some more images for the wishlist in the near future.

Date: Saturday, May 11, 2002 (3:45pm) Sections: Cels, Downloads, Main, The Rosy Garret Info: Yep, once again, it's been a rather large update. ^_^;; It's also been a terribly long time since the last one, so I guess the size is justified. I'm still without home internet access, but I'm persevering! Approximately 160 new cels this time around! I've also redesigned the menu once again. This way makes it easier to navigate, I think, and it allows me to keep track of the number of cels per page (indicated by the "[#]") and mark pages with new cels ("*"). It's a lot less image-based, so loading should be easier; but I hope it still looks all right? Please enjoy yourself and have a look around. There are many new cels with which I am very pleased. ^-^ A quick count (which I could've messed up on) brings the current total cels on the site to 785. Eek. And I've still got some 50-55 Cyberstar cels that I've forgotten to scan. O.o;; Also, please note! There's an annoying little red blob/streak that appears on a number of the scans. -.- Not on the cels. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that the scanner had a little bit of red something on it (looked almost like crayon..) until I'd already scanned a load of cels. (The stuff was dry, and didn't get on any of the cels, thank goodness!) I edited it out of some of the scans, where convenient, but I was just much too rushed to rescan the rest, and so...there it is. Sorry. >.< As for the download section ... due to a number of problems (my cel collection taking up nearly all of my provided webspace, the doujinshi taking up the rest, and the fact that I've lost all home internet access and can't directly update my webpage at any given time..) the download section is down until further notice. It may never come back. Unfortunately, it never really came to be in the first place.. *sigh* Sadly, the loss of internet access hit suddenly and unexpectedly, and so it has made things very difficult on me for this past year. I apologize to anyone who requested mp3s and didn't get them. The internet problem affected my ability to check e-mail as well. I sincerely apologize to anyone who requested an mp3 and either a) never got a response, b) got an initial response and never got an mp3, or c) anyone who got the response & mp3 but found it took me forever to accomplish. I'm still having the internet problem (I can only update because I went to visit family and hauled my computer with me) so I can't make any guarantees, but until the download section is reborn (if it ever is) I can still make mp3s and send them via e-mail. This is only possible if you have an e-mail account that allows you to accept files of about 5MB. (You can always sign up for a free Yahoo account, which allows 6, and should provide for most any mp3.) If you want to request an mp3 this way, please e-mail me with the CD & track information. If you get no response after about a week, please try again. I am terribly sorry for this problem, but it inconveniences me as well. =( It could take me a while to get the mp3 to you, but I'll do my best. (I'm pretty busy lately, so reminders are never a hassle, and are generally appreciated if it's been a while.) The Main page has been updated a bit, to reflect the removals of certain sections, and the addition of a new section which consists of..well, not much. But it's there. If I ever have access to update regularly, there will be editorials and the like. In the meantime, it's got my meager excuse for a pointless fanfiction. That's about it. I also fixed the stupid background that wasn't lining up correctly, and the image map has been reduced in size a touch. (Because I listen to feedback, even if it's very poorly & rudely stated.) From the main page, you'll find a link to a new section, the Rosy Garret. (Kudos to anyone who actually understands that reference.) It's a section for random projects; thus far, 'tis only my little fanfiction. I haven't updated the doujinshi section yet, but it's sorely overdue.. I've got tons of new doujinshi to update, and I'm trying to figure out a way to get that accomplished without having to take my computer home. ^_^;; Hopefully it'll happen, even if it takes several small updates. (You wouldn't believe how annoying and time-consuming it is to write up each and every doujinshi.. ^_^;;) In addition, for some of the same reasons the download section is going away, I've decided to put the BBS on a similar hiatus. I haven't lost interest in the project, but I've been rather discouraged due to lack of resources and time, and so while I may resurrect it some day, I won't be putting it up any time soon. I am however planning on continuing with the Guitar shrine. Nothing will put me off from that. ^_^;;

Date: Friday, Nov 23, 2001 Sections: Cels Info: Big ol' update! And when I say big, I mean it -- tons of new cels, and some real lookers among 'em. ^_^ I'm too lazy to count exact cels, but that's right about 240 new files, and among them are a number of sequences, so it's well over 260 cels total for this time around. ^-^;; Oh, I'm so very pleased with this update. (Oh, heck, aren't I always?) As you can probably see for yourself, I've gone for another redesign of the main page layout. I decided to coordinate everything around the preexisting colour scheme, and went back to the image map idea. (If anyone out there has a browser incompatible with image maps, let me know, and I'll gladly add a text site map for you!) You have no idea how much idiotic thought went into those buttons, so do appreciate. They're the product of a very bored mind. Unfortunately, with this new layout, there's no longer a number count for cels; I may work around that somehow in the future, but for now, I'm going to leave this be. I do apologize for how long it took me to get this update going -- I just moved and was without a phone line for quite a while; in the meantime, I also started vet school, so I've been keeping busy. ^_^;; I'll stop the rambling, though, and let you get to the update! New cels have been added to: most Ryuu Knight sections, Violinist of Hamelin, Jubei-chan, Tenshi ni Narumon, Ranma, Animals, El Hazard, the Misc & One-Per pages, Tenchi, Bedaman, the Unknowns, Lassie, Transformers, Beast Wars, YAT, Psychic Force, and probably elsewhere that I've forgotten to mention. ^_^;; I lack the ambition required to list each individual page that has new cels, I'm afraid. On that note, I've also not written in the 'NFS' status of some of the new cels; it slipped my mind 'til the last minute, and I just didn't feel like taking the time, yet. ^_^;; *kaff* Alt tags have also not been added for new cels, because my roommate's a lazy bum who just refuses to do the new ones. Thanks to all who helped out with my emergency sale. Sold cels have been taken down from the gallery, at long last. The crisis has been averted, and I don't have to sell any more. I've resumed my usual open-but-unlikely status on offers. On the non-cel end, I've got a couple new Ryuu Knight shitajiki to put up; I've also got a doujinshi to put up, whenever I get around to scanning on it. More CDs to come on that page, and I'll get myself working on the Misc page, I promise. ^-^;; Additionally, I've been working on a new section, which should hopefully be up pretty soon. I apologize for the delays in updating, but I just moved on very short notice, and had a lot to do. Following the move, I ended up finding myself with no phone line, due to poor wiring within the new apartment. It's been over three months now, and still no phone line. I've only been able to update today because I hauled my computer with me when I went to visit family for the Thanksgiving holiday, and took advantage of the phone line there. I can't say as to when I'll next be able to update, but once I get my phone line, things should be back to normal. Additionally: I've had two very kind people e-mail me with requests for the mp3 page; I greatly appreciate this, and have every intention of getting those mp3s up as soon as possible. Unfortunately, I'm not sure when that will be, due to the aforementioned cirucmstances. -.- I'm terribly sorry. I've lost the e-mails in which the songs were requested, and cannot respond directly to those who requested the songs, but I do remember which ones were asked for. ^_^;;

Date: Friday July 13, 2001 9:49 pm Sections: Main Info: Ooh, Friday the 13th! What an exciting time it is indeed. ^_^ Yes, I'm a little sleepy. A few minor changes (ooh, I'm an official glomper, now! Whoo! Guitar.. *-* *cough* I'm working on the BBS and such, so expect more in the near future.. I've also got another small section in the works, which should be up in the next few days.

Date: Wednesday July 11, 2001: 9:40 pm Sections: Cels, Doujinshi Info: Added a bit more to the doujinshi section, and it's actually working now. ^_^;; I've also put information up about my EMERGENCY SALE! (whoo, caps!) on the Cels For Sale page. I am, at this time, taking offers on other items, but I've specifically listed a number of cels for sale right now, in order to raise money for some new stuff. A few other changes around the site, but nothing really noteworthy. I'll be back for some real updates soon. ^_^

Date: Monday July 9, 2001: 9:20 pm Sections: Cels, Doujinshi Info: More updates! I got IDs on a lot of unknown cels, so I added those in. Big thanks to everyone who helped out. ^_^ I also made a tiny change to the Sales info page, but not anything big. You'll probably not notice. I was planning on putting up a whole For Sale page, but it hasn't happened yet.. Tomorrow, perhaps. In the meantime, I'm taking offers on things, now! Need to raise cash! (And trades for Guitar always welcome. ^_^_^_^_^) On the Doujinshi side, I've added new doujinshi to the Anime section. I'm also putting up more in the Video Game section, and a new section will be created for Magical Drop, thanks to Misa's help in acquiring them. ^_^ I'm also working on spicing up the main doujinshi page just a tad. I'll see how much I can get in before files are copied over.. Anything else will appear by tomorrow night. (Files are copied over to the main server at around 10pmPST/1amEST, so anything I upload before then will show, the rest will have to wait 'til next time.) *Note (10:35 pm) - Looks like things got copied over earlier than I thought. Right in the middle of the update...so the link to the MD page is dead, and the images on the doujinshi page aren't there. -.-;; Whoopsie. I should've done this earlier, instead of lollygagging. Sorry it looks so crazy, but that's what happened (since, by the time you'll be able to see this update, you'll be able to see the full page, too.) Oh, well. Lesson for next time..

Date: Saturday July 7, 2001 6:11pm Sections: Downloads, Music, FAQ & Info Info: I finally tossed the Download section up with information about how it works. I'll be waiting on any requests before mp3s actually go up, but I hope that can be soon. Sometime in the next hour or so, I'll also get some of my new CDs added up to the Music section. There are a lot of gaps, but it's the best I can do without a kanji dictionary. . . I'll try to get that looking a bit better, soon. I added two new MHH banners to the Info page. Got to get the Stuff/Misc area up, next. So much done, so much left to complete. . . Hopefully, tonight or tomorrow, I'll actually release the link to the page so people outside of the Pizza of Love can see it. I'll also be submitting the link to some webrings & cliques. It's almost open! I'm working hard on the BBS, so expect more on that soon. For now, I have to go feed the dog. . .

Date: Friday July 6, 2001; 3:39 pm Sections: Everything Info: Oh, everything's new. ^-^ The site's been around for a little while, but since everything was under construction until the past few days, only a few people have seen it. Now that I've got enough up, it's ready for public consumption. Eat. Enjoy. More updates very soon. The cel page was up first because it was the most work. Everything else was then built around it. Not to say I'm planning on neglecting the other areas. There are still a few sections (Downloads, BBS) that haven't gone up yet, but I hope to have more available as soon as tonight. I hope this page doesn't get too long. ^_^;; I know I ramble, and I hope to update frequently.. I'll try to note everything important here, so you know exactly what's been changed. Please also keep in mind: While I put up the time of the update, that isn't necessarily the time it will show up. I upload everything via FTP to a private folder. Yann copies everything to the main server once per day, so things won't change until that happens. So all the updates from one day will probably show up at once for you.

Date: Friday July 6, 2001; 3:10 pm Sections: Cels Info: I finally got all of my current cels up! This section of the page is ready for business! I didn't bother marking anything 'new,' since there are new cels in almost every section, and everything's been reworked & rewritten. For the moment, everything's new. Even the old stuff. ^_^;; Does that make sense? No, not really. There should be an update in the works, as well. I've got some new cels I haven't scanned yet, and more on the way. I'm going to wait 'til I get everything, so that could be a few weeks.
