avex just updated Ai-chin's official site with LOVE COOK new design, seeing the official release of the album is only less than 2 days away. This time the site is completely redesigned, featuring Tokyo panoramic photos taken at different time i.e. day and night as splash screen. Quite interesting I must say!
The new layout looks very refreshing to me, and they added new bunny bullet instead of the old ones. Top navigation bar is used instead of the classic sidebar on the left.
Some minor mistake of the design I've noticed is the mispelling of "Dawnload" under discography section lol. Classic mistake of avex designers.
Visit the official site now!
P.S. Expect of new forum layout featuring LOVE COOK before or during Christmas holidays. I'm having exams right now, and guess what, Quantum Mechanics exam today! What am I doing at Channel-Ai?  |

| Yeah avex are known for their awful English. Hitomi Shimatani's site had "New Alubum" or something similar. Anyhow this layout is outstanding. I love how the sky is changing all the time. Good luck for your exams eyn! |

i like the new layout design. the icons beside the links are so cute! but it was weird cause i guess my browser still had the PLANETARIUM temp files. so when i first went to the main page, the background was the PLANETARIUM stary sky background instead of the white background.

Oh wow! That layout is beautiful! I love watching the sky on the splash screen. They really go all out on her website compared to some of the other artists. Haha. The little food icons that pop up when you mouseover the link are cute.
Also, good luck with your exams! You'll do great! |

The site looks better. Its alot easier for me to navigate now.
I extracted the panoramic images from the swf because i thought they would look good for a background. They used much bigger images then i thought.

It's funny now thinking about it I think if you listen through the album it's like progressing through the day. You wake up at 5:09am, wake up, feel SMILY, ride the U-boato , play with your cats, cherish the love, make some Ramen! Then it's tokyo midnight and you go to your friends birthday party. And the day finishes off with the love of music.
Just a thought!
BTW Thank you so much for uploading those pictures j-ongaku, they are so neat looking! |

This layout is awesome, thanks for the heads up, eyn! It's cool to take a look at the sky in Tokyo at different parts of the day, but I don't really think that goes well with the woody feeling of the actual meat of the site. But I agree, the icons next to the page names are adorable.
And I totally understand what you mean about misspelling everything. Under "Profile", there's a picture of Ai-chin and above it it says "Ai Otuka". I think we should protest outside of avex HQ...
eyn, you slacker! How many times do I have to tell you, Channel-Ai will not explode if you study for a few hours. No, strike that, just go to class! Ai-chin doesn't like dumb guys, go build your geek power and impress her!  |

I didn't even notice that until you mentioned it. That's even worse than Dawnload! I'm all up for a protest. Or maybe we've just discovered the true reason that Ai vandalizes the Avex offices on most of her Channel-Ai episodes.
Wow! Thank youj-ongaku for extracting the pictures! That's gorgeous! One of these will soon be my desktop wallpaper. I just have to figure out which one.  |

that's so true! looks like ai did put a lot of thought into this album. i guess she kind of figure out that no one will notice this little point, so she probably made a suggestion to the web designer to the opening page like this.

lol good points. we should at least send an email to avex about the errors. |

I use a program called Sothink SWF Decompiler. I used that to get the swf then used it to extract what i wanted from it. The swf from the site was called top.swf.
I was really bored. I mean really really bored so i did a LOVE COOK logo export at a 5 times bigger size.
