FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Before you contact me with any questions or suggestions, please read over this FAQ to make sure that it hasn't already been addressed. :] After reading everything, if you still have a question, please feel free to , and I'll make sure to respond as quickly as possible.

HOW DID YOU MAKE THIS SITE? A lot (emphasis on that word) of hard work and patience. I got no help from other people; this is a one-woman show. All content (unless otherwise stated) comes straight from my head, and all graphics for layouts come from my head, as well. To code the site, I've been using Notepad for longer than I can even remember, and to make the graphics, I've been using Photoshop since version 5.5, all the way up to version 9.0 (CS2) currently.

MAY I USE YOUR SCREENSHOTS? To make a layout or wallpaper or something? Sure. To put in your own image galleries? Absolutely not. Those screenshots took a lot of work, and I don't want to see them plastered anywhere else. Besides, with the DVDs that were released (after my screenshot gallery was already made), you can get even better quality images yourself.

MAY I USE YOUR IMAGES THEN? Sure, that's not a problem, (as long as I haven't personally manipulated them in some way). I got most of those images from other places around the 'net, so I really don't mind if you use them in your gallery either.

I'D LIKE TO DIRECT LINK TO A FEW THINGS, OKAY? NO. Don't make me come after you and kick your ass. :P Bandwidth is an expensive thing, and if you can understand the concept of 'netiquette' in the slightest sense, you won't even have the gall to ask or do this. Besides, if you direct link my stuff, it comes up as an X box, anyway, so what's the point?

PUT MORE MEDIA ON YOUR SITE! It's amazing how many people can demand this of somebody who pays for webhosting out of her own pocket. Anyway, I really don't want to add more media, so nyah. :P Plus, I believe content trumps all the media-related stuff out there, so whatever.

WILL YOU HOST ME? Sorry, but I'm going to have to say no. ^^; I'm so ridiculously picky about who I host, and if I were to ever host somebody, it would not be on narusegawa.net. Unless I ask you if you wanna be hosted, it's probably not gonna happen. Please don't take that personally, though!

CAN WE AFFILIATE? Whew, I think I'm almost as picky about affiliation as I am with hosting... well, actually, that's not true. I am a little bit more lenient about affiliation requirements, but I'm still VERY picky, so here's what your site's gotta have! :]
  • Have an anime-related site; I'd prefer Love Hina sites, but those seem to be a rare breed nowadays.

  • Your site has to look somewhat decent. Okay, so I'm not looking for one of those OMG heartheart sites, but it can't crash my browser or give me epileptic seizures because of the starry background and animated GIFs. Get the picture? ;] I'm not that picky about design.

  • Content, content, content! Quality content! This is the most important thing to me; your site must have good content and lots of it. I don't care how beautiful your site is or how many hits a day it gets — if the content sucks, the content sucks — and I don't wanna be affiliated with that.
IS THE INFORMATION ON THE SITE FREE FOR GRABS? Nope. Like I mentioned earlier, all of this information (unless specifically stated otherwise) has come straight out of my brain. I'd like to keep my opinions on the anime and crap of that nature unique to Aishiteru. You can write your own content, can't you? :]

WHERE CAN I GET LOVE HINA EPISODES? Good question. Love Hina was licensed quite a while back, so it's virtually impossible to find the episodes anywhere. If you're desperate to get them, I'd try IRC or some other file-sharing client, though I don't necessarily recommend it. Unless you're determined to get the fansubbed version of the anime (which I do prefer), your best bet would be to buy the anime on DVD. ANIME NATION is a good place to purchase them.

WHY DO YOU LIKE NARU? SHE SUCKS! I've been asked this a few times, and it really boggles my mind as to why someone would ask this. I'm sure everyone out there has a favorite anime character that someone doesn't like; that's just life. Although some people may find Naru annoying, I personally found her to be quite endearing (and funny). Just my own opinion. :]

ARE YOU NARU NARUSEGAWA? LOL, it always cracks me up to hear that question. I've actually only been asked this 2-3 times, but I thought it was so strange when they asked me how Keitaro was doing. Oh, and the answer is no, btw. ;]

WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO UPDATE? When I have time. ^_^ I have so many projects and other sites that I'm currently working on — Aishiteru is pretty much complete in its content, with things here and there that need to be finished, but meh. I will update when I find the inspiration, though! :]

CAN WE BE FRIENDS? No, but you can if you'd like to tell me something. :] Sorry, but I'm very anti-social when it comes to "Internet friends."
