Hi everyone,
We are working on a t-shirt design that we would like to release with the launch of our Homepage beta. 
So probably those who don't know me personally, I am really picky! That said, i pay close attention to the smallest details. Some might already tell from the way Niho forum was designed :0) However, I'd like to hear your feedback regarding the t-shirts and your suggestions.
If you like to work on a mockup, you can pm me your ideas and design and i will look at it!
Originally these were the first mockup:
Recently, I've came up with this 2nd version:
Back of the T-shirt
Front of the T-shirt

Homepage sneak peek |

Hi everyone,
Here is a sneak peak from the live version of the homepage. We strive not only for style and quality but also quantities in term of features.
The first "100" likes [On FB] will get an early invite to our beta! ETA for beta is suppose to be by the end of April but no promises. However, that is our aim.
We've decided to release beta excluding the manga reader, in order to get beta out earlier and while beta is out, we will be working on the manga reader and its functions.
For those who are curious about how some of the features will work, we can't discuss any of this untill we release our beta :) I hope you like what you see.

What is Nihonomaru? |

WHAT IS NIHONOMARU?
Founded in 2007, starting up with just a community, Nihonomaru was aiming at something pure and unique other than the norm. We came up with a unique name "Nihonomaru" to define something original. We didn't want to just become another Anime/Manga Community. We've always strive to have something unique, starting with the design.
Early in 2007, Nihonomaru considered to be the first Anime forum, launching a highly customizable Anime base style. Surely many anime community were inspired by the idea, and so the trend followed. As we advanced and grew even larger, the design never stopped evolving till this day. With an active, influential audience consisting of more than 1.5 million registered members, we've strive to expend beyond just being categorized as an Anime community.
In 2008, our focus shifted from a forum base to something even bigger. We wanted to enhance our members' experience and how to connect them better with each others relative to what they love in term of Anime and Manga. Working internally since 2008 till 2013, planning ideas and having many internal trials and changes, some were revealed while many were not. Nihonomaru homepage is coming close to its beta released in March of 2013.
In previous announcements, we have revealed some of the many unique Members' profile features that we believe no other Anime Community has ever attempted to create. Our goal is to create something elegant yet simple in a way which connect Anime and Manga fans together and allow their interest in the Anime and Manga to be pushed to the next level.
SO WHAT IS NIHONOMARU OFFERING DIFFERENT FROM OTHER SITES?
To keep it simple, we wanted to turn a simple idea into something great. How can we connect Anime and Manga fans better. How can they share their interests relative to Anime and Manga. How to enhance the user's experience and allow members to discover the Anime and Manga world and actually live in that moment.
Aside from offering news relative to Anime, Manga, and even Video Games. Being able to stream Anime from 3rd party websites such as Dailymotion, Youtube, and other media services or reading Manga online, or on your Ipad, or Iphone. Or Reviewing and rating Anime and Manga and adding it to your Favorite list. The core idea which Nihonomaru wanted to present was to enhance members' experience when it comes to what they love about Anime and Manga.
We wanted to create something unique for every member, creating a spot where he or she can feel that it is his or her unique private Anime or Manga room. When we think about the word "Simple", we defined it as "Unique" - interpreting it in a way that is complex in term of options yet offering a deep experience, presented in a simple manner to satisfy and enhance members' experience.
AniNga Character Timeline
Our first unique idea came from the word "Discovery". One of the unique profile features that will be included in the homepage is Anime and Manga Genre Timeline. We call it "AniNga Character... [Read More]
