Want to get rid of the annoying adverts? The answer is simple. There are 4 levels of advertising on Yaoi Ai:
Level 1: (Your Level, guests and members with 0 posts) has maximum advertising. Level 2: (A user with 2 or more posts who has been a member over a week) have vastly reduced advertising (including removal of the large full screen closable adverts) Level 3: (A member who has been registered over a month and has over 30 posts, or has a special account like "artist" or "writer" sees minimal advertising. Level 4: (VIP Donators) receive no advertising.
All donators of $10 or more will never see an advert on our site again!

Anyway, nice talking to you. My first experience as a translator has been pretty sweet and sour. Few people thank me for the translation and instead praise mentaiko for his work. And, of course, it is his work. But, I also spent a lot of effort to bring it to everyone. I feel I've created something as much as anyone should, and yet, it's just a "translation"; a revised copy. I can happily say every line of dialogue is certainly of my creation; however, without the original, they would never have existed. So, it's sweet and sour. Kind of makes me want to make my own manga.
Considering I know nothing of the series I really don't how well that would go. The best analogy I can think of is dropping someone in the middle of DBZ or Pokemon without a clue of what's going on and expecting them to make something of it in the middle of the story. (Not that I read any of those either, in fact the only long serial manga I've read is GTO... I guess I like manga based somewhere in reality)
I'm going to have to decline personal requests, sorry...
Saying who's saying what and when isn't so hard, but having to then typeset the pages in photoshop and make them look nice is really time consuming, especially since I'm a total newb at photoshop. This took about 80% of my time with Itai1, the other 20% looking up some really obscure words and confusing dialects.
