Hello everyone, Naota here bringing everyone an update with our site transition. At this time we have completed all phases of our site transition from www.HudsonValleyAnime.com to www.HVAnime.com. It took us three weeks to complete all three phases.

The first phase was completed when we purchased the new domain and set up the new website. After installing the custom theme and working with all the software to make sure it was installed correctly and the website was viewable to everyone we moved on to the second phase.

The second phase was to re-create the forums. After purchasing the new software, installing the software, and configuring the software we were able to successfully create a forum that reflected everything Japanese from Anime to Manga, movies to music and entertainment. The third phase followed after all testing was completed over the forum system.

This phase included re-creating the photo gallery. The old photo gallery had problems in the way it was install, ran, and maintained. We deleted the old photo gallery, installed a new gallery, and populated the gallery with every photo that was taken from 2008 to 2010. This new photo gallery is superior in every way we are in the process of adding new pictures when they come along.

We are hoping that this change will help our site grow. We are looking for new ways of bringing new content to our user base. Our forums are away for members to communicate with each other and engaging in conversations and discussions about all things Japanese.

We are currently looking for new members to join our forum community. We are open to anyone. You’re not an exclusive set of people; we are open for anyone to join. If you, a friend, family member, or acquaintance like Japanese, Anime, Manga, or anything of that sort then you have found the right place. Membership is open and it is free so if you’d like come join us in our community.
