On Friday 26th October (that's tomorrow), at Midnight GMT, the Freya Crescent Shrine will close and reopen again on Sunday 28th, 6PM GMT. During this period, only the forums will be open.
Why are we doing this? Well, as some of you may have guessed, we are releasing the long-awaited Version 7 of the shrine at last. That's right - after five months of painstakingly rewriting code and polishing all the images up, it's here!
Obviously, we're going to be replacing everything - the update is far more than just an overhaul, as the whole site has been redesigned, in structure, appearance and, in some cases, content. The hops is that the new look will reel in some new members and bring some activity back, especially considering how old Final Fantasy IX is getting.
Right now, I suggest that you save any fan art, fanfiction and bookmark any links before it all goes away. Most of the old content will be saved, but I cannot guarantee that all of it will.
Thanks for your cooperation.

Yahoo! A shrine update after over two years! I may faint after seeing it!
I take it you're gonna be backing stuff up Dec, since you've pretty much been put in charge of the shrine update.
I'm looking forward to it!

Great job on the new shrine, except my fanfic {and Mel's} seems to be gone, so that's a bit of a let-down for me...
And on the "Why Freya?" page... What do you mean she's got a "lack of popularity"? From what I've read at nearly every FF site and forum I've been to, and judging by the fact that she's one of the FF9 characters most frequently used in fanart and fanfiction, she's one of the most popular characters in the whole game.

AJ, Dec said at the beginning that he could not guarantee all of the content to be in the new site.

Do not despair AJ, a lot of my stuff isn't up, and Dec told me he's still got it saved. The only reason it isn't posted is because Dec was cutting corners to get the update done in time. He should get it up eventually.
Also, I went on the shrine from my laptop and got access to FCS version 6 and 7! Awesomeness! I know it's a bug, but what a bug!
