I'm putting together a UYD WebFeature on UY's 25th Anniversary. I am targeting completion by the end of the month to kick it off. I'd like some suggestions on what special features to include. One feature I am going to put together is a "25 Faces of Usagi" which will show Usagi's transformation year-by-year as well as some inside info by year for each of the 25 years. It will almost be a sort of visual timeline...

I am also going to interview Stan -- if you have any questions you'd like to have considered for the interview, please PM me with them. Thanks!

I can help out with the 25 faces of Usagi and send them to you if you want.

Ah sheesh, I'd completely forgotten about that, I get so blimming busy with other stuff...

Now I have almost all the h/c it might be easier to go through them to pick out any possible images. I'll see if I get time to do some work on this as well for you Todd...

I haven't gotten a whole lot of replies as to questions you'd like Stan to answer in the interview....or things you'd like to see in the WebFeature on the 25 years of Usagi.

I'd like to see a map of UY Japan on the website, and international uy cover gallery ^^

Hello Todd,

Here's some ideas (pick and choose):

1) Create one page for every appearance of UY based on Steve's work? http://www.usagiyojimbo.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3732

2) A picture of Stan Sakai 25 years ago and today?

3) A video message from Mr. Sakai to UYD members reflecting on his past 25 years with Usagi?

4) An awards giving to Usagi Yojimbo page (Updated) http://www.usagiyojimbo.com/sakai/awards.html

5) A webpage that collection of the places Mr. Sakai has visited/traveled to? i.e.
http://usagiyojimbo.com/eurotrip3.html


6) A webpage for artist to submit their tribute to UY 25th anniversary?

7) A webpage with one example (covers) of all the languages Usagi has been printed in. (nice job Steve!)

8) A page collecting linking all introductions in the graphic novels (or is that a copywrite issue)?

9) A picture of the old UY dojo website? (I guess that doesn't really fit with the theme).

That was just a quick brainstorm to try and help out. I'm not tied to anyone in particular.

Peace, maka
