Song: Can't Help Falling in Love, F4
this is...um...yeah. The designs are absolutely gorgeous, and with all the right bishies^^ that'll make you drool puddles. And it's so rare to see it in Spanish, too bad I can't understand a thing. _-_ But... I still grimace on the site with one eyebrow raised...why? 17 sites, 7 of which are domains if I counted correctly (and from Eriol.org only). Ok, 1 domain, 2 domains, even 3 domains I am fine with. But what_the_heck are you going to do with 7 domains?? *refrains from cursing* Right off the bat, I was shocked to find domain after domain after domain listed on Daisuke.nu. Yes, they sound very appealing (kenshin.nu, eriol.org, heero.net(?), sakura-saku.org, etc.) and their designs are again, very pretty, but honestly, I see repetition, I see tons of artistic talent but only the standard content. I'm not expecting anything drastic, and I'm a bit mad that I can't read Spanish to look at all the content ^^(though that's purely my fault), but honestly, I don't see much content. It's just split into so many domains that I was already confused as to which site serves as what. Some of the plain ones I can pretty much guess, such as Kenshin.nu and Heero.net, etc. While I understand that someone would want to purchase a domain because they liked a certain character or series, I don't understand at all why someone would want to purchase a domain for every single character/series that person happens to like. >< Does anyone else see my point of view here? @.@ And no, I'm not dissing the webmistress or anything...I just a bit shocked...
Anyway..onto other matters...Maki likes F4 too! w00t! xD Keep Vanness xD I like Jerry. :3 *makes mental note to link Maki* Toma-chan's back with a simple but awesome design. :D I miss your domain and sites ;_; Belinda has another new layout, using the script that lets you choose which layout to set as the index (unique!) *_* I stick with Fruits Basket, it's so kawaii and happy-looking. *_* Elian's also back, :D *huggles* Europa's new layout is super kawaii, and Kotono's gone faeries on her new layout :D I'll zip it with the social-log now xD

<-- WTF??? What is up with the hair? O__o; 
Nothing like a good bare body xDDD ------------------------------------------------------->
<-- I want those sunglasses <.<
This one was made for me <3 <3 ------------------------------------------------------->
I am officially addicted to cheese popcorn and vanilla coke. Yes, I can live off of it and I'd happily do it.
Last but certainly not least...HAPPY BIRTHDAY EUROPA! and Trin has been so busy that if it weren't for Nahi-chan, she would have totally forgotten even though she's read Europa's entry 50 times *stampedes off to make Europa's present*

I agree, I'm completely shocked at those kinds of webmasters. It's scary when you think about it, I mean they're using up money just to buy billions of domains because they like the name or something when two or three would be perfect enough for someone x_X. Jinkies, anyways, thanks for the plug!! *hugs* Ne.. Jerry is a cutie XD

*nods emphatically throughout this entry* Triny I so agree with you!!! Grrr it doth suckth alot that so many nice domains are being bought and used for the least amount of content (remember the .nu that was solely for the clique?) Seriously, people are abusing that. What are subdomains for if people just keep buying domains for their sites?

Wee! Kudos for the pluggage! XD

Wai!! XD I don't get online for about a week and I come back and you've renamed your blog and moved it!! I love the new layout and name and everything!! I miss my blog!! But at least for now I can blog at Charmed Circle, which I already did once.

I'm just sick in general of sites that have lacking content and ride solely on their appearances. It's as shallow as a person who rides on their looks, but has no personality at all. ^^
Just call me your reminder service...lol...

Thanks for the happy b-day, trin-chan!!! :D However, I didn't get anything in the mail yet, but I bet you its hotmail. Stupid hotmail always tends to eat my email. XD
I speak spanish and I can tell you that I agree with what you said about the domains. x_x Eriol.org is their collective, kenshin.nu is a collective for their kenshin sites, sakura-saku.org is their blog (with a nice shuuichi pic XD), neo-universe.net is their domain to host people with, heero.net is... apparently not up yet, yevon.com isn't either but it's obviously something FFX related.
Damn, they're stealing domain names from anyone else who might have wanted to buy them. o_o They should stick to one only, heck I'd be happy as clam to have just one single domain. XD
Sorry for the kinda-long post. *twiddles thumbs*
