    Your translations will be a huge help! I can barely understand or read Japanese, with this little project I refuse to let the SMJ fire die just like that! :mad: I'll gather all my resources to make the Saber Site ver.XI a success! I will try to reconstruct character designs and bios that are no longer available anywhere else and even if it compels me, I will create new art works for SM series that have very few images. besides, I owe allthe skills I learned in anime drawing to the SM girls :)

    b-tuvs, I agree with you! We must not let the SMJ culture die! :mad:

    Please go on! (And if you have a little spare time... mind drawing some of my fics? :sweat: )

    SMJ Kurumi Wallpaper Crossover

    Okay, I am being a busy body lately because of Saber Site's major overhaul. I have been digging up deep in my Data bin for scraps of forgotten SMJ goodies, and guess what I found! I remember long ago in 2004 (03?? not sure anymore) that I once featured a limited Saber Marionette J to X and Steel Angel Kurumi crossover wallpaper. If you're pretty tired of those repetitive image wallpapers of the Saber Marionettes this is indeed a good find. I'll be posting this image only here in advance to give you guys a hint of what is in store for my latest Saber Site update, I hope you guys like it :D

    Poke, poke, poke!!!

    Progress is being pretty slow lately, but I'm glad to report that I am now working on the Saber Marionette J characters page!!! I was just counting the total SMJ characters and I was surprised to find out there were a lot of them. I guess I'll be pretty busy making my own renditions of the characters to put on the characters profiles. I'm currently working on Lime and here is a peek of what my work area looks like. It looks pretty messy with all the stuff running in my desktop I even have a bitttorrent application running in the background. I hope you guys like it :)

    Absolutely stunning, and will surely be the spiritual successor to Hanami's. I have more media on the way - scans of the color inserts as well as the inner illustrations of each novel. Just need to get off my butt and do it. Kind of like the lapse in my translations - I'll concentrate on getting these done sooner than later.

    Edit: I exceeded your bandwidth limit fairly quickly. How would you feel about moving domains? I think your project is great and would be willing to donate/cover hosting costs.

    Congrats on your new site! The design looks awesome! However... (danger will robinson! critic mode alert! :D ) I think I know why your site sucks too much bandwidth.

    It's designed as a TABLE-driven website. If you moved to CSS, you'd save megs of bandwith daily.

    Trust me, it costs a lot of effort, but it's worth it ;-)

    And here I thought it was me bringing up all the 5+ meg hi-res cover scans. :)

    Man, tables must be murder. :p

    lol, i hadn't noticed the images until i clicked on one of the page's links. But yes, those should be split in several pages or preferredly, stored in a photobucket account or something.

    Saber Site Gallery

    It was a chore compiling all the SMJ images in my Databank. I was surprised to discover that I had compiled a staggering amount of 494 images! :eek: and it amounts up to more or less 85MB. I had all the images uploaded to a photobucket account along with my other other works such as my manga projects and stuff :eek:

    I think it's also a good idea to have all the thumbnails moved to photobucket as well to save up some bandwidth :D

    funny you asked, you brought to my attention the existance of the "Wayback Machine" which led me to unearth some of the hidden treasures from Miracle Genki :D, with that machine I was able to scavenge the slowly disappearing data that was left of the former Defective SMJ site. The images I have scavenged from the wayback machine makes up 45% of the images in the SMJ Novel gallery. ;)

    too bad I wasn't able to rescue these images :(
    These are just thumbnails which I saved along with the original page, does anybody got a copy of them???
