This is a static copy of In the Rose Garden, which existed as the center of the western Utena fandom for years. Enjoy. :)

"I'll be in my bunk" basically is a fangirly response to something wonderful and spectacularly hot. It means that you have gone off to your bed [bunk] to etc-wankgirl. Yes. I say this a lot. etc-love

I assure you I modded the search function as much as I could for practicality. Originally using two words in the search gave you all hits for each word, instead of only hits which had both.

1. I love you for this.  I hate that behavior in search engines.

I could probably lengthen the point where that happens so that it tends to only happen on the actual image pages and not the sections

2. I think this is a good idea. At the very least so when looking at the arcs, all the 13 episodes of the first arc can be seen on the sidebar.

I've never heard this, but can I be in somebody else's bunk then?

Does this work for anyone? I am new at this scary intimidating making torrents business. If it does, what I did was zip the individual sections. Unzip to the folder they're already in and you'll have the gallery laid out the way it is on the site. There are three for the series. Let them 'overwrite' each other, they're all different files.

Re: The Unofficial EXCLUSIVE Forum Official Gallery Launch: The Thread!

Hmm, I'm connected to another peer and downloading. Which is weird, because others peers shouldn't really have much of the file to share.

I'm still not seeing you as a seed, but it's very possible that's due to my bad web connection.

Re: The Unofficial EXCLUSIVE Forum Official Gallery Launch: The Thread!

This is really neat, I just looked at it all. I'd been wondering how I could get easy access to pictures from the various episodes too... and :: boom :: here it is. The back ground sketches were exciting as well, you must have put a lot of work into getting all of these sorted out, cleaned up, posted up, etc. Thank you.

You won't, but not everyone can connect directly to me. I'm seeding 4 out of the 11 people right now and I've uploaded about 450MB so far. So yeah, this isn't going to be the fastest download ever but if everyone stays on the torrent it'll definitely get through. I'm psyched I have this right now.

Re: The Unofficial EXCLUSIVE Forum Official Gallery Launch: The Thread!

I was thinking...Would you like the vectors I've done of some of the rose symbols?  If not for the gallery, for the vector page?  They're not as complex as the other vectors, but they can be pretty useful in a variety of ways.  I've been considering using a cafe-press-like service...Utena-Rose-Symbol messenger bags, underwear, T-shirts... ;-)

They would definitely go under the vector page, but sure, that would be sweet! emot-smile

Thanks so much, Gio! My download just finished and, wow, these are gorgeous. There's so much stuff I hadn't seen before. (I'm really curious about the spikey blue-haired guy in the manga concept sketches...)

Wikipedia and Google are great help in finding out about Internet terms.
Torrent is currently the most popular form of P2P exchange of files. Basically, somebody seeds a file with a torrent program and puts the torrent file to be downloaded from one of the numerous torrent sites. Other people can then download the file and run it with a torrent program, like the original BitTorrent or more sophisticated like Azureus. They will then simultaneously download the file from the original seeder's computer and share it with everybody else downloading it at the same time. It's an excellent way to share large files without spending huge sums on the required bandwidth.

But I think that Wikipedia is much better at explaining than I am.

It's okay, I'll get used to it sooner or later. I just liked how you had all the book pages and stuff all organized. I do loved the "This is Animaton".
