Super Anime 3D: site log

Site log

	1999
FEBRUARY 12	The site www.blunet.it/mollame3D, the embryo of this site, is opened: it consists of a single page with a monochromatic Gundam head at the center and bears the title ”Para3Dise”. No registration at any search engine has done: propaganda is limited only among friends. Gundam model is not yet finished.

FEBRUARY 25	First site restyling. The main page is frame-structured and a large logo saying "the Super Robots 3D experience" stands out in the middle of the main frame: a click on a B/W group image of Grendizer, Getta Robot and Gundam heads introduces directly to a first Gundam gallery, consisting of three pictures. The index page title is now "The Anime Super Robots 3D Experience"

MARCH 30	Second site restyling. The main frame introduces now to a page where three logos, namely Gundam, Grendizer and Jeeg, link to as many distinct galleries dedicated to the specific robot: total images are about fifteen. The index page title is now aligned with the mainframe logo content. Visitors hits reach barely fifty and remain about this score for a long time. From now on and for some months no other material is added to the site: the original, hazy project becomes a goal and all further works completed, started or scheduled are meant to be published directly in the new site.

MAY ?	An Altavista's spider finds and registers several pages of the site (I suppose that's how it's gone): after months of plateau, visits begin to increase slowly but constantly.

JULY 1	Visits reach 100.

JULY 18	The site www.superanime3d.com (SA3D) is registered. The originally intended name was simply anime3d: due to a incorrect search at the Internic I made time before, I got aware that the address was already engaged (but not used) only the day before the planned registration.

NOVEMBER 19	After a huge and exhausting tour de force spent creating new characters and images, rebuilding all scenes previously shown and re-rendering the relative shots (in order to obtain true unpublished material), about sixty pictures, along with the whole site contents, are deposited at the SIAE (Società Italiana Editori ed Autori). The site www.superanime3d.com is finally brought on-line in all its parts and officially open to the public: it inherits the basic idea of the former site together with its visits score (650 hits) but it's so radically restructured and enhanced with new subjects (Great Mazinger and Mazinger Z joined the band) that it would be more appropriate to talk of an entirely new site.

DECEMBER 31	End-year total visits: 950.

JANUARY 3	SA3D is selected as one of the Anime Web Turnpike's (www.anipike.com) sites of the week and included in the Weekly Web Picks of 1/3/00: a substantial growth of site traffic follows.

JANUARY 4	Visits reach 1000.
