Thanks to my friends Klauss and Jayc, and my dad and my mom, the network is still alive!

What it says...

Damn damn damn damn!
Why is it the same every fucking year? Why why why?
If I have the same problem with my websites the next year, I definitely going to close them until I get my own fucking credit card!!! D:

Now this is for real. If the payment for 2009 can be done, it will be the last year for it to be online, if not, then I'd have to say goodbye to my network for some time.

Seriously, this situation sucks, every year trying to find a mediator just to make the payment stresses me! And right now I am more than enough stressed.
But well, it's my fault for getting the site when I knew I didn't have a card since the beginning.
I tried to find options for me but since I've been always a temporary worker, I can't get one for this kind of stuff.

No, no, it's not for the money, I have it since long time ago, and I have some extra bucks just in case that dollar rises prices or definitely dissapears from earth (and some remuneration to the person who may help me), it's just that every year since I bought the site, I have to search for someone who can help me to make the payment, and I always have trouble, if not for time, the card, or whatever..
I highly appreciate when someone tries to help me, but, I came to the point of getting tired of having the same problem every year.

PS: WTF why Tiesto and DJ Tiesto are separated sections in Last.FM?

It is the same page (layout, texts, fields and blah-blah-blah...), but the form is new.
I switched to an external service (emailme form) instead of using the old nl-php mail form. I still have no idea what was wrong with the nl one, I've seen the same error with other people using it, but who knows.

This new one has captcha as well, and so far has been working fine.
Let's see how it works within the time.




edit: I just realized that it is not xhtml valid anymore due to extensive JS on the form o_O
Meh... anyway, it works, and I won't be modifying the coding, since I know I can screw it up, so, as long as it works, I don't care.

I had no idea about this issue, and I still get no idea how to fix it.
My contact form was broken. For whatever reason the CAPTCHA wasn't working properly.

I already tried to re-install everything and make changes here and there, but it still seems broken and I'm tired of it.

I'll probably have to switch to another form in the meanwhile, but for now, I'll keep the same but without the captcha. Although I'm afraid to remove it, since the last time I did it, I got piles and piles of stupid spam mail, more than the usual in my junk folder (more shit offers like rolex and viagra -.-).

If anyone is still having trouble with my contact form, and have some kind of feedback, enquiry or whatever, feel free to drop me a line here, through LJ ^_^, since I am not active in forums or galleries anymore other than here, I'll probably can get back to you sooner.

This is off topic but also this situation reminds me that I should get a paid account here.
I know it's quite useless since I already have my own site, but I hate ads (as much as spam), and I am using more often this account, (this and that I'd like to get my own layout LOL) so... Probably by the end of this year I could manage to get one.

Anyway, I think that was all for now.
No more captcha in my contact form, just while I try to find what's wrong with it, or switch to another one.

EDITED on October 15, 2008:
As I expected, the Spammers came back offering cialis, viagra, rolex, pr0n and all that shit D: so I enabled captcha again, but it broke (again -.-).
So, feedback is disabled until I find how the hell fix that issue, or search or make another form with captcha or something to prevent spamming.

If you came here through my contact form and really need to get in contact with me, please, leave here your message with your mail (use [AT] [DOT] or whatever in your mail address replacing @ and . ), your name and your subject and I'll try to get back to you as soon as possible.
Thank you =)

EDITED on November 14, 2008:
A new form is up and running.

As I mentioned somewhere before, here comes a real network post.
Hunter's Prelude is proud to present a new project, a Ragnarok Online private server:



Levantine RO
Servidor latino, dedicado, rates 15x 15x 10x, sin customs.
GMs respetuosos y responsables, Comunidad amigable.
Eventos continuos, 3 WoE semanales.
Moscovia Dungeon activo. Actualizaciones constantes.

Actualmente, el servidor se encuentra en "fase Beta", por lo que los rates originales (15,15), fueron aumentados a 150,150. Tan pronto como la etapa termine, volverán los rates normales.
Para más información del progreso, visitar el sitio y el foro de Levantine RO.

También, les invitamos a votar por el servidor una vez al día, o cada 12 horas, para ayudar a crecer a la comunidad, dando clic en los banners del sitio ^-^!

---
For now, the server is under a "Beta" stage, this is why, temporary, the rates are x10 of the original. But as soon as it ends, the original rates will come back.

Also, if you can, please help us to grow, voting for us clicking on the banners in the site once a day or every 12 hours ^-^!

...?
whatever...

The main point of this stupid title is that, as I mentioned in some older posts, the last effort of keeping alive my Castlevania shrines (Leon, Mathias, Joachim) and the general Lament/castlevania sites are being done.

I have been working offline on the site, and it's almost done, but as I mentioned in the previous "Lament of Innocence" update, I wanted/needed a new domain name for these projects, and with the hosting update, I finally managed to do it.

This post is just to let visitors know that I am working on the resurrection of those sites, and inform that everything will be now on a new domain name (under my complete control).

So, I give a warm welcome to my Network to


Hunters Prelude



This is going to house my castlevania projects (and fanlistings), as well serve as the home for those 3 shrines that I loved so much, and, believe it or not, some people did too o.O
I had no idea how "popular" were my shrines until I had to close them temporary when the "lamentofinnocence.net" domain died. I got some feedback asking what has happened, and I was like woah! *sob* ='D

The tag for the updates on this journal has changed already for "vk".
Content will be (re)added shortly, and my fanlistings related to Castlevania will be moved to there as well.
But I am still thinking if I should change my current Enthusiast for the newest version.

Anyway, thanks for the support regarding to these sites <3 and expect for the opening soon.
While I am still stalking some new material for Mathias, Leon and Joachim sites, if you know about something, or have stuff to share, drop me a line.

W00t?
Yes, finally I got all my sites and stuff moved to the new hosting plattaform, what I've been waiting since, march? o_O
Anyway, everything has been moved, although, I am still testing every single page. Looks like everything works fine so far...

I got more disk space! Wheee! more bandwidth (although newest plans give unlimited of both services T_T), more databases and newest versions of PERL, PHP, MySQL and all that jazz, plus, I was finally able to redirect my newest domain "vampirekiller.net" to the proper directory, so, I finally can work on it.

edit: I managed to solve the problem with my listings database errors, now everything should work smooth and cool, hahaha!
But I am still testing, testing, testing, the listings and the other sites.

Everything will be under massive testing until tomorrow, when it's supossed that the DNS spread will be 100% complete.

I wasn't supossed to upload this at this time due to troubles with my current hosting platafform and blah blah blah, specially because some sites listed here are still not (re)opened, but I was getting bored of my past layout.
And, like I mentioned in the previous post, I've been making some experiments with my sites.
I have to admit I'm quite proud and satisfied with this one, but I'm sure I'll get bored of it soon.
Anyway, this is the new contact form. I used (again) my drawing of my Scholar <3
(Hmmm, I have to make a new button).





Oh, and I renamed the section/site. Couldn't come with anything better, but at least now it's not just the "Undead chocobo's cottage".
This name section will be somewhere else, just wait and you'll see o_o

The problem I had was solved (much thanks to my dear friends, the lovely nekokain and Jayc), and I am updating my sites again, starting with fanlistings, all of them updated, and 3 with "new" layouts.

But....
I think the next week my sites are going to experience problems again since my whole site is going to be moved to a new hosting platafform (which I've already tested in another hosting and it sucks!!!), so, it is probably that AGAIN my fanlistings get problems for updating.

As soon as my site gets moved, I think I'll have to update everything on them, manually... *sigh* so, it means that I won't be updating them (again.... ¬¬) and pending members have to wait to be approved 'till everything gets moved. I think this is going to take a week or something.

As for my other sites, I am fixing broken links on VHQ and Blood Talon, so, no big updates on both so far. I have been working slower than usual, since I just formatted my computer.

Thank you for reading and for your support ^_^!
