Is it right to say that Akira Toriyama is a Bird Studio employee, since he tecnically IS Bird Studio? The only employee would be whoever was working as his assistant at the time.

Maybe label the "Ocean dub" as something like "Funimation dub with Ocean cast" with a page explaining the whole thing of how there is technically no Ocean dub. Just to get the knowledge a bit more well known.

Well, it's not even Ocean doing the voices. For Dragon Ball, Funimation went with BLT Productions, then for DBZ they went with Ocean Productions (then called The Ocean Group).

If I'm reading the images correctly, the Episode 1 page is on the Japanese tab. What would go in the English tab if the dubtitles and U.S. air dates are on the JP side? Ratings on Cartoon Network? Dub writers/ADR directors? The aspect ratio on the various R1 releases?

If I'm not reading the images correctly, Episode 1 is on the English tab, the Japanese tab supposedly holds the same information in Japanese text, and you can disregard this!

I believe the tabs are just to change the picture.

You ever considered playing on the idea of "Tha Kanzenshuu" as a book for the wiki?

Maybe you could title it "The Kanzenshuu: The Perfect Dragon Ball Wiki" An Authoritative Guide of Awesomeness!
Then have a section "Other Guides of Awesomeness" which links to the Podcast Manga reviews of Awesomeness and have a link to Herm's strength checker and other works the staff has created

That way you have official source material and its references in one section and your staff created source material in another.

Just a thought I had. :thumbup:

I really like the subtle changes to the main site!

Yeah, much prefer the new Goku header. The news articles(which have been that way for a week or two) seem extravagant... is a Dragon Radar motif going on, or it's just circles for cirlces' sake?

And full disclosure, I tried logging into the wiki(which you can probably check...?) and everything was locked, of course. Wasn't going to touch anything if by some chance it worked!

I prefer this header image to the old one, although I think this Goku still isn't a perfect choice (there's something about his mouth). I'm not a fan of the recently updated news header, though; those circles in particular.

The new header uses one of my favorite Toriyama pictures of young Goku! Great choice! 8)
It's also very handy to have the Podcast button along with the Forum button!

Hahaha hate to be the only negative, but why not spice it up! I really disliked the change of Goku on the main website but it's growing on me.

Everything else has been really nice though...just don't pull an Apple and make an update everyone truely hates :shifty:

I love the new Goku picture being used on the site now. :D I swear this site just keeps getting better and better! There is one thing I miss and that was a picture of a character and it would have a number beside them?(Was that for how old the site was?)
The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

This new Goku image that everyone's talking about. I know what you're referring to, because I saw the updated Facebook cover photo, but for some reason I'm still seeing the old Goku image on the main site. It's the new one on my iPod, though. :?

Ctrl + F5 to refresh the browser's cache for the site. (You should do that when the site is displayed incorrectly, too.)

Yes, the tabs only toggle between different pictures. The information sidebar remains the same.

Thanks. There have been quite a few changes lately, some of which were intended to be done after the site launched. Yeah, we're that timely. :D

Extravagant, huh? I'll take that as a compliment. There's honestly no Dragon Radar motif going on. That hadn't even occurred to me, especially not while I was designing it.

Yeah, that's been on full lock down since I moved it to the server. Unless I grant you access, there's not much you can on there, not even view pages.

Just out of mere curiosity, may I ask why? They're really not that far of a jump from what we had.

The "date" circle is fine, I guess, but the "comments" circle looks of place. I think it would look better if the comment count was displayed to the left of the post's author name, on the same line. Without a circle wrapped around it.

Beautiful looking scheme for the pages Hujio, it definitely shows that a look of care and artistic view was put into it.

I would love to help, since I wrote a lot of stuff about characters way back then, but maybe it's just no good enough any more, and I'm a bit short on time anyway. I hope to at least be able to help with some money soon. I am very eager about it and absolutely loving the design.

Also loving the little changes to the website, it just looks for sleek and gorgeous. Keep up the great work dude!

Thanks, I appreciate it.

I figured I'd pop in real quick with a quick status update. I've been making some good progress lately and things are still on schedule, as far as I can predict (I need to update the checklist in the first post). I have mostly been focusing on setting up the wiki's structure, but that doesn't mean I haven't taken a little time making actual pages. So here's a little preview page to wet your appetite.

Oh man, Hujio. That preview has only just made it hit me how integrated with the site this is going to look. That's way better looking than just about every other fan-wiki out there!
