C77 Second Preview

Another preview for C77. I’m working in parallel with the French translation. The French one will have less circle, focusing mainly on high profiles first. I also talked about artist drawing for eroge, and eroge company do participate in Comiket. I tend to overlook them though as their set tends to be quite expensive, but nevertheless, they are good sources for artwork. We are still in the middle of the update period and it’s still slow *sigh*. I did put my preorder at Toranoana though. Also, most images I upload is resized to fit my template, but you can click on the circle/company name to get directly to the event page. Lastly, as I’m splitting the preview in several articles, you can take a look at the tags in the left sidebar and see who/what is featured.

I’m also introducing the Shadowbox on the blog since the Lightbox didn’t work. To get the full size of an image, you will have first to click on it, then save the image on your computer.
