The previous design was created when I stayed at auntie’s house at Melbourne. I was in fact farley satisfied with the result but as the time goes by my tendency found some premature points. Thus, I tried to improve the following point at this time.

• Spacing
  This is the highest priority of renewal. At the previous design, attempting to optimise the site for 800 width resolution screen made the site quite narrow; nevertheless it was vertically bit spacious. Therefore, I made a scrupulous effort on it.
• Japanese title available
  Probably it doesn’t concern English version readers but actually the most of the readers of this page is Japanese, and I wanted to entitle the entries in Japanese as well. However due to the system reason, it was difficult to archive this function but finally I made it. However, it was a kind of trade-off which I had to relinquish 'next, previous entry function'. Maybe I need to carry a further research to solve it.
• AJAX
  Recently, I started to use jQuery and it's absolutely fascinating! I made use of it on this site as well.

That's all for now. With this renewal, I anew noticed how flexible ExpressionEngine is. Although there is a restriction of title handing, it's because of unusual bilingual trick. Apart from it it was literally depends on my imagination. I could integrate a couple of blogs and make small functions by PHP and despite the adaptability, the output code remains clean enough (validated XHML+CSS).
I really hope ExpressionEngine thrives in Japan as well.

I was in charge of every thing apart from still visuals, namely, flash programming, sound effect creation, and so on, oh, plus File Maker database for organise contexts. In terms of visual design, there are some designers who are better at that kind of production than me, so I don’t have to attempt it.

Although the site has a few contents, I’m very proud of its detailed quality. At the next phase, what I’m looking forward to is that we are going to put more contents there and make it more vibrant.

Speaking about Action Script, I did so much works on it. I would say, finally I could make well use of AS2.0, though 3.0 has been already available. Custom scene management classes and FuseKit library helped me so much.

However, I shouldn’t be complacent at this point. It’s only the beginning. Comparing to the other many cool site on the net, our site is not really inferior to them but nor is it superior. Thus, at the very least, we should keep this quality for the every projects.
