Plans to Create a Mascot Character

April 2, 2018 by chikorita157 Leave a Comment

Back in January 2017, I planned on creating a Mascot character which will serve as my blog’s (Chikorita157’s Anime Blog) main identity and replace all those header images. Of course, the idea didn’t go anywhere since I do not have the funding for it. A year later and some crypto mining on the side later, I think I have some funds saved up to make this happen.

Recently, I created the concept character design in Custom Maid 3D2 since the expansive character customization can at least give me the an idea for an initial character design. The final character design will look similar as in the face, hair and figure, but her outfit will differ in the final design. I plan to use some reference material for the outfit. It can be outfits worn by other characters as a reference for the final design.

Aside from that, I have to vectorize the initial 2D Anime-style design before sharing them, so there aren’t any pictures yet. However, I spent the time to write the initial character profile, which I will share.

If you have any ideas, feel free to share them in the comments or on Twitter.

Shopping for new Hosting

November 20, 2010 by chikorita157 2 Comments

During the past two months, traffic to my Anime Blog grew substantially (Last month 7300 visitors. Currently at 6300+ visitors and raising). Sadly, pages seemed to load a bit slower (12+ seconds). If this keeps up into 2011 when I start the Winter 2011 season and finish my backlog, things can get a bit worse.

This is why I am planning to start paying for my hosting since I have some money. Since I will be watching Anime for indefinitely, I will continue to blog. I would rather pay for 2 years as a lump sum so I don’t have to worry about having monthly charges. I am thinking about WPWebHost Freedom Plan since there servers are optimized for WordPress and their prices seemed reasonable. I don’t really need unlimited disk space and bandwidth since I am only using about 2GB of space currently and all pages are cached on WordPress. After the coupon I found (35%), it comes out to be 78 dollars.

When I move to paid hosting, I would need to put ads up to sustain myself since I don’t have a job. I might try to get a summer job to help with the hosting of the blog, but yeah… Good hosting is not cheap and I refuse to use WordPress.com since it’s too limited since I can’t use my WPTouch Pro plugin and custom themes.

If you have other cheap hosting solutions that you want to offer me, just comment here or contact me over Twitter/Melative.
