My first post on the Kojima forum... YAY! I look forward to seeing what this place will become. ^_^

Can't wait for this place to get up and running!

Thanks! The forum already looks much better, with the main picture and our gorgeous avatars  ;)

I invited my friend to join the forum today! She loves Kojima`s art very much, but didn`t play any Castlevania games.

Oh, and...Ayami Kojima = God  ;D

Yo! Hope this forum turns out well.

Post by: warfreak on July 05, 2008, 01:40:56 pm
More members already! I'm very happy indeed. :) Anyway, I made something you guys can put in your sigs. I hope it's useful somehow. It's made of art that I stole got from the internet.

EDIT: I just realized it looks pretty weird since Leon's shoulders melted into the background. Oh well. :P

Hello everyone!

It feels very nice to see all you people from the Chapel.

Hello commanding crew!

Oh! I'm glad to see my name in the list! I'm so happy!  :D

Post by: CVfan13 on July 05, 2008, 02:29:39 pm
Hey, Mercurius! I'm also glad to see people from the Chapel here, as that's where we sort of got our start. Warfreak, you're also a member of the Dungeon, right? Why not try promoting this forum there?


Title: Re: Setting up the Fanclub
Post by: Mercurius on July 05, 2008, 02:42:57 pm
I'm glad to "see" you too, CVfan13!

I'm waiting for the gallery to be set up. :D

Lol, yeah, you're right. Ok, "see that you are also a member here". That better?

Anyway, yes, a gallery. I have loads of her work saved on my computer, if you need it. How do we set up a gallery?

Hi folks, another Kojima fan here. I was wondering were Heeeeeero's avatar is from? I've never seen that painting before!

Neither have I, but I'm certain it's Kojima. And I'm familiar with most of her work... must be more recent than the older, more commonly known ones you can easily see on the web.

Welcome, Snake, Lotus, VirusX, Angevil, Hero (like your avatar!), Mercurius, Illumina, Mai :) (I hope I got all of you there...) It looks like this won't be the "3-or-so members' club" Warfreak was expecting ;D But the king president has yet to arrive...We can only hope to see him arrive soon :)

Popping by to greet and whatnot.

Just make sure you don't cause trouble, like a certain other offshoot forum.

Don't worry, this is a very different forum from that one, with a totally different mindset, as well as different members :)

And welcome, Watsa!

Post by: warfreak on July 05, 2008, 10:46:45 pm
Welcome everyone! I'm very happy to see all these members joining up. Oh yes, should we start adding subforums now? I was thinking two categories: Ayami Kojima category and General Category. What subforums do you suggest we have?

To see some Castlevania and non-Castlevania Kojima art, go to Vampire Killer: http://castlevania.armster.org/ So many pretty scans. :)


Title: Re: Setting up the Fanclub
Post by: Maianarisa on July 06, 2008, 12:46:01 am
I'm all for those two categories, warfreak. We need to have an obligated spam/off-topic/nonsense subforum because no forum is without one.

Anyways, inspired by you warfreak, I decided to make a sig as well. Hope you all like it ^^;;

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v299/rosamaine/Castlevania/CrimsonRenaissanceSig.jpg

Edit: Forgot to add this, if you would like to use the sig (which I encourage you to!!!!), please save it to your own server. ^^;;


Title: Re: Setting up the Fanclub
Post by: warfreak on July 06, 2008, 01:05:00 am
Okay then. :) I shall make those now..

Nice sig. You people here should use them in other forums to promote our site! Yay!  ;D

EDIT: There. I made them. You guys can start making threads and discussing stuff now. ;) Also, I think we need more creative names than "General Forum" and "Ayami Kojima category". Suggestions?


Title: Re: Setting up the Fanclub
Post by: Mercurius on July 06, 2008, 01:16:29 am
Nice sig Maianarisa!

Also, speaking about sigs, the one of Sorrow reminds me of one of my favorite musical instruments! ;D

For the description of the General Forum, you could do something like "For all general discussions, introductions, and feedback."

I was going to suggest a CV subforum, but I figured out, it wouldn't exactly be appropriate since it's not a CV forum per se. We're probably better off doing a CV thread in the General forum.

And thanks for commenting on my sig. ^^

You too Merc!

Hello everyone!

Glad to be here. I simply adore Ayami`s art!
My friend Angevil told me about this club and here I am.

Good luck with your forum!

Wow, that sig is really good! Is there anyone that's using it at the Chapel?...can I use it? ;D

Nice sig Maianarisa!

(http://photoshack.com/albums/userpics/17702/thumb_yaso01-edited.jpg)

Yeah, I really like that piece. It's actually a part of a bigger piece, but it's just really dark with some flowers and such, but no one actually playing the flute. I really like how that works out, gives it a different feel.

And welcome, Endless, I hope you'll enjoy this place :) Also, our first non-Chapel member :o History has been written!

Glad you came so fast  :)

I already love this forum, it is turning out very nice! Now we should get Ayami to see this, join and post few times a year! That would be awesome! Who knows how to contact her? Do we have Japanese members already?


Title: Re: Setting up the Fanclub
Post by: warfreak on July 06, 2008, 12:04:33 pm
Sadly, I don't think we do. I remember in the Chapel, Raven is the only person who knew Japanese. >_> Does Ayami Kojima even speak English? *sigh* I don't know, but she's probably too busy to bother with a small forum like us. She has many fanclubs already, I bet. :) Still, we can adore her work from afar...


Title: Re: Setting up the Fanclub
Post by: CVfan13 on July 06, 2008, 12:21:24 pm
Welcome, welcome everybody.

Does anyone know how to contact this "Raven"? And better yet, Kojima? I assume she wouldn't allow her personal contact information get out, but maybe other, official fanclubs know? Oh well, I guess we can only dream.  ::)

Also: Warfreak, how do I put one of those images in one of my signatures, like on the Dungeon? I mean the like the one you had on the Chapel where you just have to click the image to link here.


Title: Re: Setting up the Fanclub
Post by: warfreak on July 06, 2008, 12:49:37 pm
Well I guess you can PM Raven on the Chapel. o_O Otherwise, I don't know how. Maybe Kojima has a blog like IGA?

I only learned of it recently, through Marto, myself. :) Use these tags, I don't know if you have to remove the spaces, though. Try it without spaces? :)  Then replace "pictureurl" with your photo's link. I hope this works.

Dear god, members galore! O_O Hi guys!


Monsieur President has been working all day, so pardone moi.......>_>


Oh, c'est fantastique, mon amis! ^^ I'm really happy this place is turning out great!

Also, I'm going to be trying to create some sub-forums later tonight, and contact some of the leaders of Vampire Killer (cv.armster. people) for some gallery advice/ help.

Otherwise, WOW! I'm amazed.


Wait....illumina, aren't you part of that site's staff?  :o





Title: Re: Setting up the Fanclub
Post by: Maianarisa on July 07, 2008, 01:18:08 am
I see marto!! ^___^

Good to see you here.

I think we should rename this thread the Introductions thread. XD

Not a bad idea. But then we'd need an extra "Suggestions Thread". Still, it's would work and be pretty cool.

Hey warfreak, are we allowed to add our own stuff to the gallery? I want to upload the sig I made to the gallery. ^^;


Title: Re: Setting up the Fanclub
Post by: CVfan13 on July 08, 2008, 03:20:42 pm
Yeah, I don't think it matters, just so long as its Kojima, which your sig is.  ;)


Title: Re: Setting up the Fanclub
Post by: warfreak on July 09, 2008, 07:49:08 am
Yep. Kojima or your personal art. :) It's fine, and actually encouraged.

We haven't really got the gallery all set up yet, but anyone can upload pics on it for now. ;)
