just a short sorry-for-delay-note
I'm in England since 5 weeks now with nearly no internet in my little spare time ... (>.<) ... but as soon as I'm back home my mum and I will send finally all the feedback too

Hi there, I'm also behind on giving feedback- still need to do the first 21 people on the list. This is because it takes me a long time to browse through the galleries and make my comments. I hope everyone I've contacts so far has found it constructive!

Which reminds me, I've not received any feedback since ReiTheJelly's message on 17th April. If anyone has sent anything via RS after this date, that includes Sensei who said he's done, I've not been on the receiving end of any messages. My email is fine, but I pressume RS may have had problems...

Im insanely behind as well.. and probably will go beyond the deadline
but I can't help my computer crashing and burning.

A word to those that enjoy frequently youtube as much as me...
if you download a video, make sure its noty from youtubia.
Its littered with malware crap that slips thru anti-virus software.

Anyways, the machine was reformatted as of yesterday so unfortunately with it
every piece of f&%@ing data including the CelOpen house document.
I only have computer access here at work and lately
I've been swamped.

So far I've only sent off 1-13 .
I'll do the rest as time allows here at work during breaks and
once I get my computer bacck in shape.

Sorry for the delay!

<== is fuming pissed

PM sent! Anyone else? I didn't save the first ten or so but I do have the rest saved in a file.

DONE! DONE! DONE!

That took a few more weeks than I anticipated, but I had a lot of fun looking at everyone's treasures.

I've got a few left, and I do apologize to those that I haven't gotten around to yet! Life has been very, very busy at the moment. But I promise I'll finish soon!

Thanks for sharing your philosophy.

I apologize to everyone as well...this has been a very hectic month for me as my job has opened up new doors and trying to juggle that with my personal life (have to pay attention to my less than 1 year marriage!)

But I will be sending them out throughout this week. If you do not get one from me by next Monday, then please let me know.

So I will add my slacker apology to the list. My finals for school are next week and work keeps sending me to training. Lovely eh? Anyways, I am more than half way done and hopefully will get to the remaining galleries today and tomorrow. I will post when I am done and I apologize for the delay.

Ok, I'm done. All my feedback has been sent. Let me know if you haven't received it and I will resend.

Here are some responses to the most common critiques of my site:

Why isn't the anime listing in alphabetical order?
This is because I wanted to organize the anime titles to fit the rectangular shape of the background. To achieve this I had to organize the titles so that each line was a fixed length. For the next version, I will try to make the listing alphabetical.

Why is there no "HOME" button?
This is because the free flash viewer I use to show each different anime doesn't allow for extra buttons very easily. I'm sure there is a way to hack it, but I really don't have the time right now to pursue it. My goal with this gallery is the less I have to code, the better. I'll see what I can do for the next version.

How come your descriptions are so short?
This is a combination of what the flash viewer allows and my own writing style. First off, the flash viewer does not allow very much space for a description. I could probably cut out some of the formatting space to recoup more real estate. Also, I'm not that great at writing descriptions/comments. I like to keep it to brief emotional responses or small factoids. I really do appreciate that people what to know my thoughts, feelings, recollections on a particular piece of artwork.

Anyway, thank you all for the comments! When I get a chance, I will try to respond individually to how/why my gallery ended up the way it did.

Thanks,
gb

It'll be tight, but everyone who hasn't yet received fb from me will receive it. Hopefully before the deadline. If not, I apologize in advance. I'm racing a bit to get 2 costumes done before May 15th. One is no problem, but the other is a bit more involved. As soon as I have both them completed I can finish off the other half of reviews I need to leave. Again, I just want to apologize in advance if it takes a while to receive yours, and I hope you aren't mad. Thanks.
