Otaku’s Hideout

Going away on yet another business trip from 20-24 July. This time however, I shall take the chance to have a gathering at KL with my fellow figure collector friends.

More updates shall come after I am back!

Was rather occupied making changes to Otaku’s Hideout:

1. Completed the transition to WP2.5! Previously still got some unworkable plugins and some theme issues. All seems to be well now.
2. Changed image sizes from thumbnails to resized images. Still smaller than the original uploaded ones, but should be large enough for viewing. Clicking on the photos will bring full sizes. Still in consideration phase whether I should reduce the resized resolution since the quality for some photos is quite bad. Either I upload smaller photos from now on or back to thumbnails or just live with it.
3. Removed sidebar items that are now considered unneccessary. This includes Mybloglog and some images. Reduced number of images and widgets should reduce site loading time I hope.
4. Maybe some people had noticed that I keep on switching ad between Adverlets and Nuffang. Well, the reason is that there seems to be no ad coming from Nuffnang and Adverlets make my site slow. Now back to Nuffnang. I do understand an ad-free site is the best. But.. figure collection is an expensive hobby, so.. you get what I mean.. XD
5. Added options for post sharing to Digg, StumbleUpon, etc. Hope whoever like my posts can share them. XD
6. Other small changes

Anyone got any suggestions to share, pls feel free to comment here. I do read all of them

I have added an instant chat feature to my blog. Just click the “Pop up my Tagboard” link just below the translation flags on the right. I decided not to add the full chat form for now but instead a pop up link so that it won’t clutter my page.

Comments are still the preferred way to leave me a message. But if you are shy to comment on any of my posts, then just drop me a message at the chat.

As usual, all comments/messages are welcomed! Be it good or bad, long or short & no matter who or where you’re/from.

After so many months of waiting, Prim3.com has finally expired and I have just acquired it! Call me obsessed but I wouldn’t want Prim3.com to fall into other people’s hands.
