TheAkiba Google Chrome Web App1

Have some spare time so just made a simple TheAkiba web app for Google Chrome. Nothing fancy but acts as a shortcut sitting on your “New Tab” screen and redirect you to TheAkiba.

TheAkiba V6: Reverie8

After two weeks of design and redesign, finally I finished the sixth version TheAkiba. The new theme is written on the top of Reverie. You might not think it is a big change but if you still remember what the original fifth version looks like, you will probably agree with me. You might also notice that I’ve put the Series Database offline for maintenance. Will make it compatible with the new theme and put it online later. So far I am quite satisfied with the new theme.
