2001 Updates




December 1, 2001

Sorry for going AWOL on you. The semester gets really busy as it starts to wind down. My "turkey surprise" is dead in the water at the moment, due to the inability of a certain company to cooperate *grumble*. Sorry for the let down. But there are some new links to check out, including my new (and first) partner site: t.i.d.a.l. :: o.b.s.e.s.s.i.o.n.s.! This is a really, really nice Tsunami shrine, so check it out! I also added a couple minor things to the FAQ, including some good news about Tenchi--it's coming back to Toonami! :) Once school is done and I go on break, I'll have some more new stuff for you. Until then...




November 1, 2001

Hi! Been a while, huh? Well, if it wasn't the flu, then it had to be midterms (evil incarnate). I hope you all had a good Halloween (I won't even go into what I did). I've got a little treat for you all--the Sounds and MIDIs are back!! :) Spaceports was more than a little disagreeable, so I found yet another alternative. I'm also working on another little treat, which I'm hoping will be ready by Thanksgiving. I'll keep you posted on everything as it develops! :)




October 9, 2001

I've added 20 pics to the gallery. The sound and MIDI files are well on their way, but it's still taking some time (stupid flu!). I should also mention that Geocities sent me a notice that I'm using too much bandwidth. Since this site's pretty small, I'm inclined to believe that some of you evil people out there are linking directly to my files! Will you please stop? Bandwidth stealing is a criminal act, and I can't imagine that any of you would want such a thing resting on your conscience.




October 1, 2001

Happy Halloween, everyone! The Sasami Sanctuary has a special holiday look just for the month of October to celebrate (but only here on the main page. I'm definitely not ambitious enough to do this to every page on the site!). ^_~* I haven't added anything new other than all these funky graphics, but there will be another update eventually. An early strain of the flu kinda set my plans back a bit. Take your vitamins, everyone! Those germs will get you when you least expect it!




September 16, 2001

More layout tweaking! Note the snazzy new image map below for accessing the character profiles. The profiles themselves have also been tweaked to include some updated information like special abilities (Pretty Sammy's profile has been changed the most). The FAQ section is also up now, though it's still kinda small. If your question isn't there and you'd like it to be, by all means e-mail me your question! *^_^* You also might have noticed that there is a second webring bar down below. This is because I decided to form my own webring on a whim (it was one of those "impulse things" I guess). It's a pretty small ring at the moment, so if you have a Tenchi site, please consider joining! Oh, and if you want to see the other sites in the ring (all 4 of them), I suggest you go to the ring hub first. Not all of the other sites have their navigation bars up yet, so using mine might just take you back here.


September 1, 2001

Well, the inevitable has happened--school is back in session. It's going to be a rough semester, so updates will become a lot less frequent. Expect new stuff at least once a month, though it maybe more often if I have time. Unfortunately, all of the music and sounds are down (yet again) with no return date in sight. I realize you Tenchi fans are going through extreme withdrawel since Cartoon Network has put the show on hiatus (no reports on when or if it will return). I changed the picture in the Eyecandy section, (not that it really matters) and I added another 20 pics to the gallery, making an even 200 images, to tide you over until next time....




August 17, 2001

Good news to report--the sound clips are back up and so are the MP3s, including 2 brand new ones! Downloading them is hit or miss, so I'll apologize in advance for any problems you may have. As an added bonus, there are 28 new pics in the gallery too! Yay! :) The bad news is that summer is winding down, and it won't be long before I have to return to that torture chamber known as college (Junior year...eeek!!). That means fewer updates and probably not as much stuff too. I'll try to squeeze in one more good update before August is over, so keep your fingers crossed!




August 8, 2001

Sorry about that lame update last time. July was a really busy month for me, so I didn't have a lot of time to work on this site. Music is apparently not the internet's best friend at the moment. The MP3s and Sound files are down, but the MIDIs are up. I also cut the music from this page for now since it made this page load slower than a snail stuck in neutral (think about that a moment). The good news? I went a little crazy with my screen captures and added 52 (that's right!) new pics to the gallery!! There are also 8 new puzzles to keep you occupied until I can get everything else working. *Sigh* Back to work! (P.S. I'm also working on updating my little "info" sections on Sasami et al. If you think there's anything I should include, please let me know ASAP.)




July 23, 2001

Jeez! Who knew it would be this difficult to find webspace? NBCi kindly informed me (last week) that they are upgrading their services and won't be providing webspace for who knows how long. Hence, the files I had stored there stopped working shortly after my last update. I apologize to any of you who attempted to download those files and got that annoying 404 error message. Those files have been moved and should be working now. There are also 4 spankin' new MP3s in the music section (get 'em while you can!). Speaking of music, I decided to put a song here on the main page, which will be rotated periodically. That's all for now. Stay tuned for more stuff.




June 27, 2001

3 updates in a month??! I think I've been spending too much time in front of my computer! :) You probably noticed the new graphics here on the main page. What do you think? I added 6 more MIDIs, 4 sound clips, and 6 puzzles to the goodies section. I reorganized the image galleries a bit, and added 8 (!) new Pretty Sammy pics, 4 new Tsunami pics, and 4 new group pics. There are also 3 homemade separators in the web graphics section now. Oh, and I went and joined a webring too! It's down at the bottom under my counter (over 1500 hits! YAY!). The other stuff I promised is on the way, so hang in there. :)




June 15, 2001

I added 4 new Sasami pics and 5 new Pretty Sammy pics. Pretty Sammy pictures are kind of hard to find, so you'll have to wait till I can make some more before that gallery really grows. But what's really important to note is that the Goodies section is finally open! I told you that good things come to those who wait! There isn't too much there at the moment, but that will change soon. I made a couple of new and better banners too, so please disregard that old, cruddy banner I had. I've also joined the "Anti-Anti-Sasami Shrine", a new site that's sort of like the #SAS#. If you have a Sasami site, I encourage you to join as well.




June 3, 2001

*Whew!* Sorry for the long delay. I ran into a couple of technical difficulties and I've fallen behind schedule. But things are slowly getting back on track, and here's the proof: 16 (!!) new Sasami pics, 11 new Tsunami pics, 8 new group pics, and 4 (sorry!) new Pretty Sammy pics! I also have a couple of new banners to show off (found here). Also, please read my new policy on taking images, which is on the gallery's main page. And a special thanks to those of you who wrote or signed my guestbook. I LOVE all the enthusiastic responses I've recieved! More good stuff is on the way!





May 10, 2001

School's out and it's time to party! Lots of new stuff to report. I've added 8 new Sasami pics, 6 new Tsunami pics, a new section in the Gallery for Group pics, and a couple of new links in the links section. There's also a Guestbook for you to sign now (see below). Also note the new effect on this page! (It looks a little funky when the flowers pass over the images) Don't think that sounds like much? Well, you just wait and see, my friends! The season is still young........





April 24, 2001

Wow...submitting my page to the Anime Web Turnpike really made my hit counter jump! I haven't added any new content, but I tweaked the layout a bit and opened the links section. Never fear! Summer is coming and then I'll have a lot more time to update this site. Just let me get through all of my finals (gulp!) first.





April 5, 2001

Well, this is the official launch of The Sasami Sanctuary. This site is still under construction, and it probably will be for quite awhile. I hope you like what I have so far! Please e-mail me and let me know what you think!
