After many months of not updating Arashi World, I'm back.
Between school, university application, study abroad application for this summer and real life I really had no time to update ^^;
However, yesterday I gave myself a kick in the butt and I cleaned up all of the spam in my inboxes (with the help of Anna, thank you dear :3!) and uploaded a first batch of fanarts. In the next couple of weeks I'll be updating the members of america.arashi-world.com, updating the list of people who wanted to subscribe to the newsletter, send a newsletter and answer to my 29479037 emails XD While studying for finals and not sleeping.
I'm glad to be back, I hope no one hates me D:
And I need help with that 10th anniversary fanvid project. Seriously x: (2009.arashi-world.com)
No I'm not dead.
I just can't update Arashi World at the moment as my computer died and I'm waiting on a new one.
BUT... when it was supposed to come today Fedex messed up and delivered it somewhere else >.>;; I have no clue how it can be possible but yeah ._. Ironically I got my Kiiroi Namida DVD delivered by Fedex today aswell D:?? I don't get it.
As soon as the issue is solved and I get my computer I'll update the website. But I don't know how soon that will be. I hope the one that got my computer didn't open it/use it and will be wiling to cooperate so the issue doesn't get dragged for weeks x:
In any case...
I counted the members yesterday and we are now 998!! :D
YAY :D!!!
Hello everyone!
A lot of updates this week.
First, the Latin America FC opened a few days ago! If you live in South America (minus Brazil), please go subscribe!
There's also an Arab FC that should be up soon. I'm looking forward to having more and more FCs to cover all of the planet X3! Then it will really be Arashi World!
Concerning the Arashi International Fanvideo Project, here are the suggestions we got so far from you. Don't forget that you have until October to do so!
- Include pictures/video footage of our Arashi items.
- Take a picture of yourself (or a group of fans) next to a close landmark where you live (ex: Like in San Fran the Golden Gate Bridge and in Florida, Disney World) or with something typical of your region if a landmark is not available. Then we will either put the picture in a slideshow at the end of before the fan messages.
- Film yourself doing some Arashi karaoke.
- Include Venoatgre's piano as a soundtrack during pictures and when needed. (at least A・RA・SHI)
Also, a very fun new section added to the page: A guide to writing fanmail to our Stormy boys! It's finally here! If by any change you know who wrote this amazing guide, let me know. I have no clue where it comes from but it's too awesome not to share o.o;
Last thing: don't forget about my Yesasia Associates link when preordering Arashi goods (or anything else if you wish)! :3 I really apreciate your support!

So I bring you Nino and Sho visiting broom-making grandparents! (And most importantly going to the onsen ^.- )

I'm not planning on releasing suftsubs but if you really really want them I guess I could post them too.
Don't forget to drop a comment over at Lalt's LJ for the translations!

Hello everyone!
As some of you might know, the Australia&New Zealand FC finally opened! You can now join if you live in that area ^^
In other news, the USA&Canada&Brazil FC welcomed its 100th members tewo days ago! The Europe FC will probably get to 500 members rather soon so things are going very well :3A new section will be added to the website sometime soon. It's going to be a guide about sending fanmail to Arashi (also applicable to any Johnnys)! If they get more and more fanmail from outside Japan it can only lead to something positive right? ^-^
Last but not least: Help us promote the fanvideo project! I made banners for those who want, but feel free to make your own :3

As promised here is an early newsletter!
2009.arashi-world.com, the website for the Arashi International Fanvideo project, is up! We're waiting for your feeback and suggestions :3 Also tell all your Arashi fan friends about it, we really want to make it something international!
Arashi-World also became a YesAsia Associates, so helping supporting the website couldn't be easier! You just have to access the website by clicking the link I put up when you want to buy things and I'll get 12% 10% commission on what you buy. No extra fee for you! If everything goes well I'd like to pay the host for 1 year next month and not having to worry about payments for a while ^-^
I hope everyone is enjoying Time! :D

Hi Arashi fans!
Sorry for the lack of updates or newsletter in the last few weeks, but there was not much to update either.
(And sorry for the overly long email this time...)
The logo contest has decided on a logo for the website but the person was not able to give me a high quality file until today (she was on vacation, lucky girl XD). I hope everyone likes it! It's much better than the previous wich was basically a dump of too many things on one page. Tell me if you find any bugs!
So as you can see I changed the layout completely and added a few new things:
- The "Support Arashi-world.com" section.
- A more detailed "About the website" section
I can also announce that there is a new project coming up called the International Arashi Fanvideo Project. I'll send another newsletter as soon as the website is up and working so you can know all the details. For now I can tell you it involves giving something to Arashi in 2009 ^.- (This is a VIP information for newsletter&Vox people XD)
Also congratulations to the Europe FC that reached over 400 members earlier last week, and congratulations to everyone for reaching 500 members in total yesterday! And for those wondering about the Autraslia&New Zealand FC, it should be done Sunday maximum ^-^
Starting from now I will be updating Arashi-World.com 2-3 times a week only. (Opposed to once, sometimes twice a day) So it's normal if the total amount of actual FC members is higher than on the website or if fanarts are 2-3 days late to be put up, I'm a little bit busy lately.
One last thing:
I want to translate the section "About this website", "fanart gallery" and "support arashi-world.com!" in as much languages as possible so send me your translations at julie@arashi-world.com! (or comment on this Vox entry) (I don't need french and portuguese ^^)
Expect the next update sooner than this one! ^-^

Here are the translation I already have: (I'll keep updating this when I receive them)

/////////////////////////////////////////////////
I decided my vox should be more than just for comments (I'm not commenting much anyways because I'm busy XD) so I'll post the Arashi-World.com newsletter on here so it can promote the website and its projects a little ^^
I'm not posting the previous ones because 1. I don't have them anymore and 2. It's not relevant XD
If you wish to receive this directly in your email inbox, send an email to newsletter@arashi-world.com!
I created this vox to post comments so don't expect me to post on here unless I have a really important announcement for arashi-world.com :D...
If you have a livejournal just add me! ^-^ Mine is http://audience0killer.livejournal.com :3
