We're going to keep this short and sweet (Frank and birthday vgifts will be back next week). You've probably seen the updates to our main menu. Don't be alarmed. You'll find everything you need, just in slightly shifted format. Just so you know, we based these changes on input from both experienced and new users who were not familiar with LiveJournal. Our goal was to reduce barriers to usability and make LiveJournal more accessible and easy to navigate. Please note that this is a work in progress. We welcome your detailed suggestions in feedback. We thank you, in advance, for helping us improve your LiveJournal experience.

We've updated the global navigation menu:

Here's a quick breakdown of what you'll find where:

• Scrapbook can now be found under Profile (thanks for your feedback, btw), along with Settings, Stats, and Edit Profile.
• You'll find all the tools you need to post and update entries under Journal, which includes posting and editing entries, managing comments and tags, and customizing your journal's style.
• Friends contains all of your friend settings, from filtering your Friends page to adding, removing, and finding new and existing friends on LiveJournal.
• Under Communities, you'll find links to manage your communities, accept community invites, and create new communities.
• Explore includes search features, RSS feeds, Question of the Day, and FRNK radio.
• Under Shop, you'll find links to upgrade or give a paid account, buy virtual gifts, purchase LiveJournal merchandise (like T-shirts), and view your payment history.

LiveJournal Mobile update:

We've enhanced LiveJournal's mobile site to improve usability and load times. We've made more of LiveJournal's features accessible via mobile, including posting comments, uploading photos, reading and commenting on friends' posts, finding and messaging friends, and more. We look forward to reviewing your feedback and recommendations for future improvements.

Other important changes:

• You can lock comments to prevent further commenting on a post, while leaving existing comments visible.
• We replaced the "Tell a friend" link with a new "Share This" widget that lets you share LiveJournal posts on other social media sites, including Facebook, Digg, Twitter, etc.
• We changed some of the icons on entries (you can hover over the icons to view descriptions).
• You'll see a Tag count on your Tag management page.
• You'll now see the 10 most recent vgifts on your profile page. To remove vgifts, left-click on the vgift and choose whether you want to remove the vgift from your profile or delete it entirely.
• We've added options to help you control receipt of vgifts, which you'll find in My Stuff under Edit Profile. You can now enable vgifts from friends or everyone and disable anonymous vgifts.

We've got your fix:

• UPDATE: We understand that Scrapbook was broken by our latest release. We're working on resolving this issue as soon as possible. In the meantime, please be aware that you cannot edit or delete photos, manage galleries, or add titles to photos. In addition, you may not be able to change privacy settings on photos. In other words, once you try to edit a photo, the changes will not be applied, and the photo will be automatically set to private (which cannot be changed).
• UPDATE: There was an unintentional change in the price of userpics. We will do a patch release to fix this ASAP, and we'll refund anyone who purchased userpics at the higher price. UPDATE 2: The pricing of userpics has been fixed and refunds have been issued for the over payments.
• UPDATE: A fix has been coded for the update.bml page display problem for users who use Internet Explorer 6 & 7. This will be pushed live in the next patch release.
• Non-conforming images will now be automatically resized for custom mood themes.
• Line breaks no longer count as two characters against your entry's character limit.
• We fixed a bug on the Manage Tags page so you can clear all tags and add new tags.
• We corrected the UI for the update.bml page so it displays properly in IE8.

Thanks again for joining us. Frank and company will be back next week!

Hello!!!

Translations of the blogs of rikkai members and seigaku 5 members of the last day actuation in the tenimyu.

Someone know where find this??

Wow. It feels like it's been a long while since something I watched touched me like that. I've enjoyed watching this and that, some more than others, but this feeling, having my mind blank and completely open as it absorbs the ending of the episode and thinking of nothing else and all I can think and say after that is "wow". Nicely set up. The character mainly involved isn't even my favourite character, though one I like. Might also partly be because of how entirely unexpected the plot was. Watching the previous episode's next episode preview, I thought, I couldn't tell what the next episode was about but it looked boring. And it's especially when your expectations and guard are down that the good shines even brighter? Fullmetal Alchemist, episode 25.

Might be time to check out the manga for this series. But if I'm going back to reading, I might as well go catch up with OP first.

Hey all!

Tonight was the final senshuuraku for the last plot-driven TeniMyu of the first season ;__; For any interested parties, there's a rough summary of some of the special funtime stuff (ad-libs, senshuuraku jokes, etc.) over on my LJ here. Beware: you'll need tissues ;____; This is a report of the live viewing, btw (version streamed live to theaters across the country) and not from being in JCB Hall in person unfortunately~ But it's all the same info ;)

We're finishing up a few odds and ends before our next major release. Our mighty Ops guys continue to slay spambots and balance load times on a highwire without a safety net (which is kind of tough dressed in full ninja gear). Down on solid ground, we're celebrating this week's virtual birthday party with a warm toast to pants. If you can rearrange the letters of your favorite city, state, and/or country (feel free to combine these elements) to spell one of Frank's favorite treats (e.g., pants, wire, paper, etc.), he'll send you over a can of whipped cream to top it all off (provided you return the empty can for his midnight snack)! And, with that, let the word scrambling commence!

Stuff you should know:

We're still working on the delayed/missing notifications issue. Sorry, we're frustrated too. We'll keep you posted. Last week, we became aware that a recently-implemented script was overwriting affiliate referral fees for some of our users. Once we confirmed this, our Ops team quickly removed the script. Please be aware that, while we may beta-test other affiliate scripts down the line, we will take greater measures to ensure that no existing user-referral arrangements are impacted in any way. While we plan to stick to a weekly news schedule, if we have a release in between regular newsletters, we'll post here to keep you informed. You can also check lj_releases for current release information.

To our paid users, we send squirrels in love!

If you have a paid or permanent account, you can send five free Squirrels in love vgifts through Monday, March 15th at 4pm, PST! You'll see both the free and the $0.99 squirrels displayed until they've scurried off to their new homes. Please send only one vgift at a time. In other words, you'll need to complete check-out and start a new order for each vgift you send. If you're not receiving vgifts (from friends and/or Frank), you may have disabled them. To enable vgifts, visit Edit profile (under Profile), scroll down to the bottom of the page, and select 'Do not disable' from the drop-down menu. Have fun!

Help is on the way!

We're pleased to announce the winner of our first charitable vgift poll, Doctors without Borders / Médecins Sans Frontières, which provides critical medical care to under-served populations around the world. Priced at $2.99, we'll donate 100 percent of the proceeds we raise from the sale of this vgift (we'll cover credit card fees). We invite you to start recommending nonprofits for our next fundraising drive at ljnewscontests. We'll take suggestions through the month and post a poll in the news during the first week of April to let you choose the recipient. We thank you, again, for your passion and generosity.

We've crowned a header

Congratulations to ohterlus for submitting the winning header, which will go live next week and keep us leafy through mid-April! You can submit designs for our next header contest at ljnewscontests now until March 31st. We'll post a poll in the news to let you decide which header will sit at the top of LiveJournal from mid-April to mid-May. All artistic interpretations are welcome. The winner will get a $25 LiveJournal gift certificate. All other contributors will receive $5 gift certificates. Our heartfelt appreciation for sharing your talent and creativity!

For this week's winning photo and more adventures with Frank & Meme, we'll catch you under the cut!

I was bored last night and the uehara_takuya comm I've been happily sharing in recently inspired me to make comms for the other two stage actors I enjoy the most.

It looks like there is a good chance there will be another Prince of Tennis Fan Panel at Anime Central this year!  We are also having a photo shoot which will be on Saturday, May 15th at 11am.  

There are two topics in the Anime Central forum, one for the panel and one for the photo shoot:
Panel Discussion ~ Photo Shoot

For those of you unfamiliar with Anime Central, it's an anime convention that will be in Rosemont, Illinois, USA , May 14-15-16 2010
Website:www.acen.org

What we are planning for this year is exciting. We plan to not only have a few rounds of the Seigaku Game, but have a karaoke/talent segment AND we plan to have clips of your favorite moments from the anime and musicals.

I'd like to get you all talking about what your favorite moments are from the musicals and anime are. We want to get these clips together by the end of March. So, if you have any suggestions that you feel should be included in favorite clips, reply and describe the name the episode or musical, and about what time in the video the moment happens!

If you have a song in mind that you want to sing for the karaoke/talent segment, please request it here so we can have it ready for you!  Also if you have anything to contribute for the panel, please do, and of course you will given FULL CREDIT for anything you contribute; videos, music, images, information, etc.

I have a discussion forum up for the panel here:
http://kisekinohana.net/POT/phpBB3/index.php

Please join and tell us what you want to see at the panel this year!

Thanks everyone!

Hey bookshop , do you mind if I link to your journal entries?  I think they will be a great resource! :)

BTW - here is some cool stuff from last years' panel:

Thanks for reading, and hope to see you at the panel this year!
