You know, I notice I don't type nearly as much as I used to, nor do I really dabble with the site as nearly as what I used to. Sometimes, I just stare at the site, looking at the activities between the members on Shoutbox or how they interact throughout the place. Sometimes, I just don't say anything as there's nothing to be said. At first I thought that it was possibly I was losing interest, but I know that's not true. I still have so many ideas on what I want to do to improve the place and to make it worthwhile. And then it dawned on me; it's not because I'm losing interest, it's because I have a very talented staff to keep things in line.
And with that, this entire site overhaul was done by all of the staff!
@Rupurudu! worked on the new theme with MUCH better responsive theme for mobile and tablet (if you do use the site on smartphone, please use it in landscape, as it's a better experience),
@Vincentmrl and
@mnstrmthd worked on the logos (yes there's two!) and @NebulaVista helped with testing. I can take no credit in this, but I am extremely proud in what these guys came up with.
It used to be, for the most part, Aura as admin and Vince as mod, and then I came along. With that I had so ideas crowding my head, the visions I have for Untamed Heart, what it could do, what it can be. I would get up in the morning and work late at night to work on the site. But that time is over, and now we have folks who (makes my jobs a lot easier :P) make that vision easier to obtain. And now I feel like that it's even closer to what I imagined, it's just one more step closer to its potential. However, along the way I saw that this place is MORE than just a forum. It's constantly growing, constantly changing, to become more than just a forum. In effect, it's a group of fans who dedicate their time and resources to make this place a great place to be, sharing art, stories, videos, projects, etc. And this is why we will no longer refer to the site as 'Untamed Heart Klonoa Forums'--it doesn't envelop what it has become.
We are now
Untamed Heart Klonoa Network! Doesn't matter how you cut it--Untamed Heart or simply Klonoa Collective--It just makes sense that the name evolves with the site. And none of this wouldn't have been possible without any of you guys!
