- Yeah, I be on Spring Break starting now! I must say, it's muchly needed. My last semester of college is proving to be quite a doozy, but 's all good. I still manage to find time to do site stuff, heh (actually, I work on the site when I'm putting off other work I *should* be doing, but you didn't hear me say that). Today, I've got 46 new Trunks Screencaps for ya, this time from episode 106. Hope you like 'em! Don't forget all the goodies from my last update, as well! Oh yeah, I also modified the look of the main page navigation slightly based on having used the layout in action for a few days. The menu is now in the middle of the table, and the sub-navigation menu now pops up on the side. There is also a little tab on the bottom of the table for helpful info links, such as the FAQ, Site Map, and Contact info.

- Ah, my first major content on the new server! How exciting! Let me tell you, this update is quite a doozy. I've made enough stuff to make one's head spin! Hope you have fun looking at it all.

- The main update of the day is 114 new Trunks Screencaps! Yes, the section is back online! As you can see, it's not as big as the screencaps section on the former site (401 now compared to 700+ before). This is because I have started this section from scratch. I deleted all my old crappy fansub and VHS screencaps (with the expection of "Trunks from the Playdia Game," since those are rare), and I have begun replacing them ALL (and them some!) with DVD ripped/captured images. Dat's right, nothing but the best for you Trunks fans out there! The more high quality eye-candy, the better. So, what's new, you ask? Well, the DVD for the last episodes of Dragonball Z came out today. This disc features the last appearance of Chibi Trunks, and the first appearance of Teenage Chibi Trunks (wow, ain't that a contradiction in terms). Anywho, that said, I simply had to buy the DVD the day it came out (being yesterday). As a result, a butt-load of new DVD-ripped Trunks Screencaps are now up! You can find some of Chibi Trunks (episode 273), and of Teenage Chibi Trunks (episodes 274, 275, 276). In addition, starting from the very beginning, I have put up DVD screencaps of Mirai Trunks' first appearance (episodes 104 and 105). From this point on, I will be going in order of episode numbers and replacing all the Trunks Screencaps with DVD-version images. That's the big project I've got set up for myself.

- And speaking of the new DBZ DVD that came out today (Kid Buu - "A New Beginning"), there was an interesting ad in the Extras portion of the DVD. It featured a little preview for DBGT, coming out in April. And I must say, it's pretty silly, and downright insulting to old fans. I've encoded a small MPEG file of the ad, as well as scanned pics of the DVD's crappy insert. You can find them all hosted on Daizenshuu EX.

- But wait, I'm not done! Got more ToT content up for viewing! Trunks Doujinshi has 15 new images added in the Misc. Trunks Doujinshi page. Whoa, more Trunks pics today!? I'm nuts!

- On the information front, the Trunks Episode Guide has been updated to contain the FUNimation episode numbers, in addition to the old Japanese episode numbers.

- In the Humor section, I've updated Rejected DBZ Movie Titles to reflect the new titles for the FUNi releases of movies 4-7. Most of the Japanese titles have also been corrected.

- Greetings, and welcome to the all-new Temple O' Trunks at it's own kick-ass domain name, www.templeotrunks.com! Since March 2003 marks the 5-year anniversary of the ToT, I wanted to do something special by completely redesigning the site, as you can see. The site's also now at it's own easy-to-remember URL, so that's pretty special. I hope you'll enjoy the ride, now that you're here!

So, what's different about the site now, do you ask? Well, first of all, some old goodies are now back. For example, the English Trunks Sounds are now ALL back up. In addition, nearly all dead links have been removed, giving you a more satisfying romp through the site. Furthermore, all old items that used to be on the main page have now been moved in to the all new Misc. section. And, most obviously, the site is now easier to navigate (I hope)! If you get lost, please check the Site Map.

However, just because the ToT is all new and spiffy doesn't mean I'm done. Alas, this move is taking place during an insanely busy time during my life. I have lots of school work and music video work to do while I'm working on the site. As a result, a few sections of the Tot are not up yet, but will be in the coming weeks. Trunks Screencaps, Trunks Wallpapers and Fan Art are still under construction. Fortunately, I hope to have them all back up very soon.

But fear not! I have some mad crazy fun stuff planned for the future of the ToT, in addition to putting up the aforementioned sections. I plan on making tons of new content and sections, so stay tuned. Also, the Trunks Screencaps section will get a total overhaul, featuring nothing but DVD-ripped images (hence it being down right now, since I'm still working on it). Don't miss out on all the goodness!

As the leading site on Trunks on the web, I welcome you to the site! I hope you find stuff here to keep you busy and put a smile on your face. I'd like to say thanks to Daizenshuu EX and Toriyama World for all of your help through the site move.
