Gems Ablaze
Version 16.0 - Gems Ablaze
With this layout I changed the name of this website for the final time, from "Initial U" to "Gems Ablaze." There was a very popular Haruko shrine on the web at the time named Initial U, so in order to avoid any confusion between the two sites, I decided a name change would be wise. As for the layout, I really do not like it; the text frame is too small and difficult to read. This layout has been up for a long time just because I've had no time or motivation to design something new.

Gems Ablaze
Version 15.0 - Bella Donna
Featuring Rei, Ami, and Haruka in the main page. The non-frames layout worked very well with this website, because it has so much content and text. I especially liked the spring colors. Each sub-page had a different image at the top of the page. I think this layout would have worked better without the abstract flower in the bottom right corner.

Panikku
Version 5.0 - Ninja Sana
This is my favorite design for Panikku up to date; it's bright, colorful, cute, and easy to read. I also went through and updated a lot of the written content with this design as well, so I felt like the website matured as a whole.

Inverse
Version 5.0 - Blood Red
With this version of Inverse, I went through the entire site and revamped all of the content. Along with this design, the content was much more organized and informative. This was another frames layout but it was actually fairly different from my usual frames style. I was very happy with this layout.

Gems Ablaze
Version 14.0 - Fish and Seashells
This was a plain and simple layout, featuring Michiru. The main page was non-frames, but the sub-pages were split into frames. At the time I thought it was too tranquil and calm, but now that I look back on it, it's not so bad.

Gems Ablaze
Version 13.0 - Shining Stars
This was a different style of layout, with another new organization for the sub-pages. It's purple once again, and the characters in the header image are Usagi, Hotaru, and Michiru. I particularly liked the way the frames were laid out.

Gems Ablaze
Version 12.2 - Against the Moon
I enjoyed making this frames layout. I really liked the manga image to the right, and the colors looked great together.

Gems Ablaze
Version 12.1 - Outer Senshi
This is a draft for Version 12.1 that never made the cut. I uploaded all of the images, and as I began working on the subpages, I realized that the more I looked at it, the more I disliked it. Ultimately I ended up throwing it out.

Scanariffic
Version 2.0 - Crazy GALS!
This design is extremely chaotic on purpose. The cover girl is Ran from GALS!, which is a very chaotic manga. The colors are intense and clash, and there's a lot going on.

Panikku
Version 4.0 - Merry-Go-Round
This was a different type of layout than my usual style. I also changed the organization around and put links to all the sub-pages on the main page. I loved the contrast between the dark purple and bright yellow.
