About The Site
About Celestial Luminary Celestial Luminary has been around long before it was on Takeuchi-naoko.com. It was first part of a smaller site spawned in 1998 called Sailor Moon (Not wise, Hitsuji admits), and then renamed Moonlight Tower when it was put on Animanga Palace.The contents moved to Takeuchi-naoko.com when Animanga Palace ran into trouble and could no longer exist due to an evil registrar. It moved sometime in 2001 with a revamped design done by Mako-chan and screwed up by Hitsuji-chan ^^;;. Most of the contents have been there since the start, thought the section names have changed and the face of it looks different. So, the majority of the ideas of what the contents are have not changed since they were first produced. (The early version of it is burned onto CD). Only a few sections were actually added during that time. Celestial Luminary was originally inspired by the lack of information about Sailormoon being in one place back in 1998. Currently its one of the only active combination sites on Sailormoon. Currently Celestial Luminary is being turned into a user interative site with games, and other things that will eventuaally make it self maintaining. One last note: The Make a Senshi program was originally my idea in 1998 when I read a link on a RPG that read, Make your own Senshi. However, many people have either parallely had the same idea, or have wholly taken it (probably when they saw the old site was gone and thought that must make it alright to take). While it hasn't been made, I didn't take that idea. People took that idea from me instead. My Program will be superior anyway. About Computers/Programming Junk Since Hitsuji owns the site, the majority of the HTML was originally done on a Mac. However, other computers have been used by Hitsuji as well. The count at present is 5.
Gimacle- a green iMac owned by Hitsuji and taken by her mother.
Graphics Programs: GIMP, Adobe Photoshop 6 and 7, Adobe Photodeluxe and Adobe Image Ready. There were some slicing and animating features along the way as well. Mako-chan uses Jasc Paint Shop Pro, good old paint, some Jasc Animation Studio (when she's feeling ambitious), and rarely more Adobe Photoshop. HTML Programs: Hitsuji's brain, Cute HTML, BBEdit, and word pad. Hitsuji's favorite being BBEdit for the mac. Mako-chan usually uses something simular to wordpad, coupled with an Utada Hikaru playlist and a lot of Pepsi. ^_^ No Web generators here! (Except when we feel lazy, but usually not... we're gluttons for punishment!) Browser Testing: Netscape, Opera, and Internet Explorer. (If you can get it to work in those, you're generally going to be okay...) Web Programs: HTML (of course), PHP, mySQL, python (Hitsuji's Dad) That's pretty much it... if you have any questions regarding something else that we didn't cover, feel free to ask us. |
