This past month, we announced that we were accepting affiliates for Celestialis and Skylude. When the first requests arrived, we could not have been happier; we truly admire the dedication and creativity that go into making each of their sites beautiful! *drops hearts everywhere* We are delighted to introduce the newest friends joining our network. Here are our latest affiliates:

Celestialis

1. Lucien of Neon Sky
2. Evey of Potion
3. Mishiro of Skycrown

Skylude

1. Mishiro of CrystalOrb
2. Destinie of Winged Victory
3. Evey of Phantasy

We encourage you to visit them when you have the chance; each site has its own charm and personality. I finally had time to write descriptions for our affiliates, so feel free to read them to get a better sense of each webmaster. If you are interested in affiliating with us, please visit our affiliation section for more information!

I am pleased to announce that I will be participating in one of Amassment’s shrine challenges; the Pokémon Gym Leader Marathon! I am excited because this will be one of my first shrines, yet I am also nervous since I honestly have no idea how to begin one.

I will be looking through other shrines to understand what is expected, so I can get a clearer sense of how to approach everything. Before I work on the internal details, I already have an idea for the shrine’s title; I just need a strong image to bring the design together. I believe the CSS portion will be the most challenging because I want everything to look perfect. This marathon will run for four months, so I should get started soon rather than wait until the last minute.

If you love any Pokémon gym leaders and are interested in creating a shrine, feel free to check out the thread here. Many thanks to Megan for allowing me to participate in this challenge! *throws confetti*

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.

Good day everyone. A couple of new fanlistings, made by me and Aelyn, are now up on Skylude and a couple fanlistings were updated to a new link as well. On another note, Aelyn got around to upgrade our guestbook to it’s current version. We also have a new layout as well! It features Leon from the series Reine des Fleures. I don’t come across really good-looking Bishounen, but this guy blew my mind! Too hot not to make a layout of this. Anyhow, here are the fanlisting updates.

2. Final Fantasy VII: Reno – Games
