J-List is happy to present one of the finest items I’ve ever seen — Akira Fubuki’s newest shashinshu, Impressive. It’s a good word to describe the soft beauty and erotic colors used by photographer Yamagishi Shin to record the many faces of Ms. Fubuki, who is fast becoming the No. 1 AV actress in all Japan. Sexy and sensuous, Akira-chan is one of the hottest women to enter the business. I imagine the 10 copies we currently have in stock will go very quickly.
The new Ureccos and Creams are going quickly, although there are a lot left in stock. Be sure to check them out, and remember about our sale. You can save yourself some money and get a nice bunch of magazines in the process. Enjoy our very large selection.
There is a big change in the J-List homepage files today, even though you may or may not notice it — it’s one of those technical “under the hood” HTML things. The graphics images that J-List uses now have their sizes referred to directly in the HTML text, rather than before, when they used the “UseImageHeight” and “UseImageWidth” tags. The end result is that the J-List pages should feel much speedier to users of browsers such as Netscape, which require the image sizes to be specified before they can load in the surrounding text. Many thanks to K.G. for his help and to Marc Boon, creator of GifScan 2.2. As with any change to the J-List’s pages, I welcome feedback from you.
I have to plug the Mac, here. A very nifty system-wide scripting tool called Applescript was used to enable Filemaker Pro to talk ask GifScann to poll the 8500 graphics files we’ve got in the J-List database and get the height, width and size properties. It was accomplished in less than two hours, once I had the script set up. If we tried to run J-List with Windows PCs, we would not have access to any of this great stuff. Long live the Mac for being so easy to use. (Applescript is also used for the creation of all email here at J-List.)
Today was a holiday in Japan, so we took Kazuki to Kezoji Park, a large amusement and park that we happen to live near, for the annual Open Air Concert. It’s put on by a local company that rents studio time to bands, and was a chance for small bands to play in front of an audience. (Note: some of them were awful.) We had fun, and Kazuki got to play to his heart’s content. October is a nice time for sitting back with a beer, talking with friends, in Japan.
