After what feels like several weeks of long and hard work, sometimes several hours at a time... after Shu and I going back and forth on graphics, after many long walls of text by Blazer and discussions with Seraph, who has been working on these epic walkthroughs and content pages of his own... we are FINALLY ready to release the new site.
By the time you see this, it will probably be up, so do check out the new design at http://www.feshrine.net
Though it is in the same general style as the old site, it is generally easier to navigate with menus on both sides and more space in the center as well as refreshing new graphics and color choices that don't get your blood boiling (though we will miss our blazing red site).
I'll try to keep the rest of this short both in the interest of time and interest of keeping your interest. To start, there's a lot of work to be done. We're still uploading images to the gallery, we've yet to upload soundtracks, we have a whole ton of content incoming for the actual sections, and more. However, we HAVE done plenty; we've given a lot of updates on pages, fixed inconsistency errors and broken links, refreshed pages with new graphics and updated menus, and more.
We have a new twitter as well as an embedded twitter feed that will give you the latest in Fire Emblem news. It will surpass all other news sources by mentioning even minor things and also interacting with its followers. The home page will still have major updates, of course, but there's something to be said about having an interesting little tidbit about Fire Emblem on a near-daily basis, right?
We wanted to release the site as to keep us motivated to work on things and to get this out there before school swamped us (me) and the such. We'll work on things at our own pace now and do our best to get them up as soon as possible, so keep your eyes peeled and be sure to bug us about it or help us out if you're interested. In the mean time we hope the new design revitalizes your willingness to keep up with the mainsite and perhaps even chat on the forums, haha.
Thanks for your continued support and for those of you entering the school year, start strong and keep it that way! It's tough, I know, but we can do it!
