Can you believe how quickly time flies? December is almost here, and before we know it, it’ll be 2026.

This month has been all about big changes behind the scenes, especially on our fanlistings. We’ve been making some significant edits, and the spotlight is on Aelyn’s recent update to the Listing Admin script via Enamour, so these adjustments are all part of the effort to bring the script to the next level. In short, here’s a rundown of the updates and improvements:

1. Every fanlisting subject now shows the number of fans listed per country when you check out the country section on the fan list. A small but cool addition that gives a better sense of the global fanbase!
2. The total number of countries is now visible on each subject’s index page, plus it’s included in Enamour’s owned section where all fanlistings are showcased. It’s a nice touch that adds more clarity to how widespread each fanlisting really is.
3. Fan counts across all pages are now correctly displayed, even when there are over 100 fans from a single country. This is especially important for the bigger fan communities, where the fan count can get pretty hefty.

I’m currently helping Aelyn with the front-end templates to implement these changes. To be honest, I’m still not quite versed in working with the deeper, internal script updates she’s been tweaking and perfecting for years. It’s a bit out of my wheelhouse, but I’m happy to assist where I can!

It's been 4 years since the last release of Enamour's first layout. I personally didn't think the years would go by so quick. The previous layout really stood its time until Aelyn brought it up! By brainstorming some ideas how we could change the look of the next theme, I felt using a design inspired by Persona 5 would be a great idea. In fact, it's been months since this idea was proposed and we eventually pushed through. After Aelyn completed the main layout, the rest of it (front-end coding and design) was made by yours truly. The simple and clean design of this art is what makes this layout so catchy and truly makes this layout everything that it is. I love the images, the colors (pops of reds, grays, and whites), the formatting, everything. Overall, it's one of my favorite layouts of Enamour to date, until we change it to a new layout that is!

Pokémon
On another note, I Choose You, a Pokémon has reached 200 members! Unfortunately, I have not checked whether some members' sites are up-to-date and has linked to me. Therefore, there will be an expected member pruning sometime around May. I will send an advanced notice to all members around the first week of April; sites will be checked as well as codes to the clique. This will give everyone to update their sites in a timely manner.

I’m not sure why I forgot to include this in my previous updates, but I’ve recently been approved for a couple of new fanlisting subjects and they’re now live! Please feel free to check them out:

1. Ao no Exorcist (Blue Exorcist) – Anime Series
2. Final Fantasy X-2 – Game Series

Celestialis is also going through some major changes. Lately, I’ve been feeling uncertain about web design; inspiration doesn’t come as easily as it used to, and I no longer have as much time to devote to my sites. The new layout reflects this mood—simple, with links only to the sections that will remain active.

These are the latest updates for now. I’ll still be working on things when I can, and I’m definitely not going anywhere. Hopefully, something will spark my motivation again and inspire me to rebuild the domain. But for the moment, this is where I’ve chosen to steady the network.
