Coming Changes
Tags: sitely, news, | Tuesday, December 15, 2009Hello again everyone! I'm here to notify you lot of some upcoming changes. After a discussion with Kyuu today, and many days of endless pondering, I've finally come to a conclusion. It's not exactly good news, but it's not bad either, so please bear with me.
Before I go into that though, please welcome my new link exchanges: Liv of A Mirage Unspoken and Lucien of Hakanai Designs. Both are new sites, but show a lot of prospective, so do check them out. And then, just to get this off my chest, because I really do get offended when it happens, and it has happened more times than I'd like to say, when you apply for link exchange, please actually LINK ME BACK within a timely manner. I always try to respond to emails within a week's time, and considering the fact that you applied to LE with Intox, it would be appreciated. It's a bit irksome otherwise.
Somewhat along that same line, the contest is still ongoing. There are currently five entries (thanks to Kyuu for entering), but I'd really like to see a lot more in the next few weeks. Christmas and New Years is a busy time with university students taking finals and work going insane, but please remember you only have until February 12, 2010. Get them in before then!
And finally, there is going to be some major changes to the site in the next few weeks to months (hopefully less, depending on my motivation). I will be converting shonen-ai.org into more of a yaoi site than a graphics site. In short, yaoi reviews, rants, information, possibly some scanlations and the like (I'm also aiming for some fan material, but we'll see how that goes). Submissions will be accepted for reviews, rants and fan related materials. The graphics will still be accessible, and predominantly yaoi based, but no longer the focus of the site. Therefore, any LE or affiliate who wishes to drop once the changes are complete are free to do so. A courtesy email would be appreciated, but not necessary. All affiliates will be notified once the change is complete to see if they still desire affiliation.
For those curious, the reason for this change is the fact that lately, my desire to create graphics has continuously decreased. Whether or not that's believable might be a different story, but it's true nonetheless. However, knowing that I cannot let go of designing completely, I have decided to shift the focus of this site to something that I know I'll continuously be interested in and that is yaoi.
This will probably be my only update this month so, Merry Christmas and Happy New Years!! See you all again in 2010! Hope everyone has a blast this lovely holiday season!

I'm excited about the change, I'm a huge yaoi fan, lol. IF you ever want some yaoi designs for download lemme know, I would be happy to make some :D
Change is good, and I'll stick around till the end. I think Im getting attach to yaoi.
OOO! Total yaoi site along with graphics? Man that is a dream come true! LOL
I have not forgotten about your contest. XD I will probably be submitting my entry between Jan-Feb. But, definitely count on an entry from me.
I think it is great that you are going to add more shonen-ai and yaoi materials! I can't wait to see them. :D
Thanks Megori for all of the suggestions! It helps a lot since I'm really new at reviewing websites. Also, I don't mind your long comments. So don't worry about that. They are always helpful if anything.
PS: I look forward to the changes on this website. I started reading some more shounen-ai recently. It's pretty interesting. I don't think I'm ready for regular Yaoi yet... oh well! Also, congratulations on the new link exchanges!
