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.

A Brief Summary of 20112

Year 2011 almost come to and end, and probably ended for half of our readers. Time to get a summary for what happened and what’s in our mind for the coming year. Lots of things happened this year. It is the third year of the launch of TheAkiba and I did see the traffic increased as I write more posts this year. Even though more factors should be taken into consideration, let’s just take a look at what those metrics are.

Weekly Roundup0

It was another busy week. You may have already noticed several changes of the site, including the dark brown header. Have to say that I was just testing this new navigation, and it’s temporary. Together with the new community add-on, I may have some time to make a big revamp or a new theme of the site this winter. Yes, I like winter, the season when I was born. I cannot be born again, so, the site has to reborn instead of me. Will take some time to do some split tests to find out the best solution in the following few weeks. And by the way, I also like Fall, it’s the most beautiful season of a year, and the season when TheAkiba was born.

Nothing changed in the look of the theme except I upgrade it to add several features and make it compatible to the latest version of WordPress 3.2.1.
