This is an advanced notice to people that, after the next full SMBhq update on August 1, I am going to take a break from SMBhq for about 2 months.
I am going to be enrolling into York University in Toronto (to persue an, eventual, BA degree in Information Technology) and I don't want the stress, that comes from maintaining the site, to distract me during this transition.
Super Mario Mysteries (my main specialty section) will still be updated and, if I have time, there might even be an RPC in September.
But other than that, the site is all Jay's for August and September.

State of SMBhq and Stuff
You may have been noticing that SMBhq is lacking in the update department a bit.
Well here's why.
Kyle Orland has been wanting me to get the era pages ready and I have been trying to concentrate on that. Also, I have been having trouble finding stuff (other than the era pages) that could be updated.
There is also the fact that I tend to be lazy at times (and the fact that I hate it when a website, that I do for a hobby, feels like a job).
There should, hopefully, be something that resembles an update within the next week. However, I will then be heading to Scotland for two weeks and (unless Jay does some updating) SMBhq will pretty much be on hiatus for much of May.

Ch-Ch-Changes
You probably noticed the new, smaller logo for SMBhq.
That is the first sign of the next, and hopefully final, redesign to the SMBhq main page.
This new main page design, which will launch tommorow, is probably my best yet and will probably end up being perennial design for the main page.
Then I can move on to more important things, like the Era Pages.

Super Mario World - The Epic!
If you have a good internet connection, I recommend for you to give this Super Mario World video a looksy.

Disk Space Woes
I've taken notice that SMBhq's files takes up 100+ MB on my hard drive.
On my 40GB Computer that would be no problem, however on my 18 GB Laptop (which I've been using for website work since last fall), with only 7GB free, SMBhq is taking up space that could be used for something else.
My solution is that, as soon as possible, I move SMBhq's files (in fact, ALL my website-related files) onto a USB Key Drive.
That would do 2 things:
1. It would free up some space on my hard drive.
2. It would allow me to work on SMBhq anytime, anywhere (just plug in the USB Drive).
Well, that's enough ranting for today.

Updates, Icons, and Random stuff
Hey guys. It's me, Metal, again. I've been doing plenty of updating at SSQ. First thing, there's enough mirrors to choke a camel, so don't worry about it ever going down. Second thing, a new season just started, and it'd be nice if you tried to join now rather than later. Finally, I updated several story logs, the rules, and added a nice navbar to the site. Check it out when you have time. The new layout for SMBHQ is great, too.

SMBHQ's New Years Resolution
Happy New Years!
That last year featured a lot in the way of rebuilding SMBhq for the future, and 2005 will be seeing more of that.
I will try to get all the era pages up and running by years end. Hopefully we won't be bombarded with too many new Mario games for when it's comes time to do the final (and most difficult) era page.
I'll be going through the 2004 Mario Releases soon and compile a list of nominees for the second Golden Toad Awards. You should expect voting to begin towards the end of the month.
That's all and, once again, have a Happy New Year.
