Updates and Website History
Notes on this update (January 2017)
Further to some supportive emails of people still following this website, after 9 years I've decided to do some maintainance, removing some pages because of broken links.
The “Characters' Screenshot Gallery” has been removed because the hosting service where the images where kept doesn't exist anymore.
The “Image Gallery” now consists of 3 pages (previously they were 7) because of the above-mentioned reason.
Several links in the “Music and Sound” section are broken, I plan to restore them when possible.
