Attention 4chan extension/user script/archive developers: Some time in the next few days, we'll be rolling out a complete HTML rewrite of the imageboards.
The design will remain the same, but the underlying HTML/CSS is completely new, and validates HTML5/CSS3 (with some tweaks to account for cross-browser compatibility).

Please visit this thread to read more about the changes, and here to preview the code.

As a regular user, these changes should not affect you. You will need to update your 4chan browser extensions/user scripts when their maintainer updates them to be compatible with the changes.
The official 4chan Chrome extension will be ready to go when the updates happen, and 4chan X should be ready soon. We'll post more details on the day of the migration!

The first book is a classic British-style mystery. The second book is, uh, yeah, I can't even say anything without spoiling the shit out of people.

He wrote the second book in three days, right after he finished the first, and this series is the reason he's such a famous author in the first place.

You realize that Yen Press is still releasing Haruhi and Spice n' Wolf novels? And that those aren't exactly top sellers?

You are never going to make very much money selling light novels to Americans.
