Shikamaru & Yondaime skins
Well, dad wants to play Puzzle Pirates, so I must relinquish the computer to him.The Shikamaru skin is live and working, with a few minor cosmetic changes from it's original incarnation.
And I keep misspelling Shikamaru. I've been sitting at a computer typing code for way to long.
Anyways, the Yondaime skin for Oni Butterfly is also live. It's pretty simple and sparse-- just like our knowledge of Yondaime-sama ♥
Okay, so I just didn't want to clutter up that picture of him. I hope you like it!

Jumpmenus
Is anyone else having problems with the jumpmenus? They keep sending me to the 404 page, though the "next" button is working just fine. So if you're having problems with it, just use the next button, and I'll see if I can figure out what's wrong with the menus.Edit: Problem's been solved. Or, at least, it should be. Somehow the settings reverted back to TONFA's original finalknight.net URL, but they're all pointing at narutofic.net again.

Naruto skin is live
Naruto skin has been finished. I hope you like it, chidori3x.Upcoming skins:
Akatsuki & Team 7 skins for Kyuubi.
Sasunaru skin for Lae and Oni Butterfly.
Yondaime skin for Oni Butterfly.
The next skin I'm going to be working on, however, is the Shikamaru skin. It's my favorite skin, and I would like to be able to use it again.
For now, however, it's 1AM in my time zone, and I should be catching up on the sleep I missed last night.
Keep writing, everyone!

Upgrade to 2.0
TONFA will be upgrading to Efiction 2.0, sometime tonight after 9:00pm MST. I would have been upgrading it right now, however there are a lot more stories here than I thought there was, and I'm still downloading the backup.I will likely have to revamp the skins to fit the new coding, so if you have any requests for character skins, now's the time to ask.
If there are any problems with Efiction 2.0 once it's up please tell me I would like to keep this site running as smoothly as possible. Thanks.

NFA VOTING- This time for real!
Well, your friendly neighbourhod idiot ((that would be me)) finally has everything straightened out, and VOTING IS OPEN.
The polls are on Livejournal. Which means you must be logged in to livejournal in order to vote. Most of you probably already have one-- a large portion of authors do have a tendancy to post their unfinished works to LJ. Sometimes they chronical their finished works there.
If you don't have an lj, don't worry, it's free, and it's not like they demand that you post. I have personally not posted to my personal LJ in three/four months.
The NFA's "vote" page has links to the lj community's poll pages. Consider it a short cut.
That is all.

Bye-Bye Admin-type's Computer
80gb of data... gone.I have /nothing/. Not just my fanfics, but everything to do with the Twisting Nether, the Final Knight, and TONFA, all the back-ups for the various databases, everything I've done for school, all my anime and manga, all my music, all my games, /EVERYTHING/ is gone.
It's a brand fucking new harddrive, and it's absofuckinglutely fried.
I still have my email, and all the NFA stuff, but everything else that I had been working on in regards to this site and my other sites is gone.

NFA Nominations [3]
TONFA author fyredevyl's "The Emerald Isle"rayemars' "Ripple Effect"
Kraken's Ghost's "Foxhound
For those who have been wondering, yes there is a limit on the length of time since the story was posted. If it was posted before November 01, 2004 and has not been updated, then I can't put it in the 2005 awards.
However... I just do a brief check of published & update dates. And you can take that however you wish to.

NFA Update
Another nomination ((Tatemshope's "It's a Hard Knock Life")), and the three previous nominations have been all accepted.
Please remember to list the AUTHOR'S NAME and the STORY TITLE, when you send in a nomination. Sometimes my form garbles the URL, and I wind up searching for it by the name and title. Without them, I can't list the story. So don't just leave the form saying "Name" or "Story Title".

New Skin - Shikamaru
I thought it appropriate that my laziest layout yet would feature Shikamaru. And by "laziest" I mean "did little more than change the colors and the banner image of one of the default skins packaged with eFiction"
I wanted a simple layout, and I have this tendancy to go overboard, so I made myself only do minimal work. It still took a couple hours to cobble everything together, as I was working with the live site skin as I did everything, and was jumping between three programs to make sure everything was running smoothly, and with the right colors.
Somehow, Shikamaru ended up with a camoflogue layout. This amuses me.
EDIT - And then I go and shuffle things around the index, not two minutes after I posted that. Sheesh, I'm obsessive.

Animethon XII
Anyone go to AXII? I should have posted this before I left, but what can y'do?
If any of you were there and can recall seeing an Anko cosplayer, well, that was your friendly TONFA administrator. I didn't sign up for the contest this year, but I was around quite a bit.
Usually either in the company of the only Sound-nin cosplayer ((that we could find-- he was a chuunin, given the vest)), or Forte.EXE.
I bought craploads of swag-- $300 worth of it; $240 dollars of which was Naruto stuff. ((The other sixty was on Bleach merch and manga))
Well, that's it; I'm off to bed. I was up say to late on Friday, and then I went to the Dance on Saturday ((go tier 3! woo! go half-naked sweaty Anko-priest! ^_\;;))

Redirecting no more
http://www.finalknight.net/naruto/ no longer redirects to this domain. In fact, it doesn't exist anymore at all. You'll just get a 404 page.
I did this because the redirect was messing with my stats, and I could no longer tell where people were coming from. ((ie: livejournal, fanfiction.net, various forums...))

Up and Running
narutofic.net offically works!
What I need for you lot is to tell me of any and all broken links. I had to play around a little to get it all to work, and I don't know what's still working, and what's just the cache from my computer.

Domain name purchased
I've purchased the domain name for TONFA, though it's not set-up to point to finalknight.net let alone finalknight.net/naruto yet.
It will be up and running smoothly in a few days.
I know everyone was looking forwards to "tonfa.org" as our domain, however someone else got to it first, so we'll have to settle for the runner-up: "narutofic.net". You can keep trying it until it works, or you cna just wait for me to throw you the "a-ok!". Either way works ^_\
