Sources must be provided to further prove the existence of the UTAUloid, like links to homepages, features, and such.
Do not add plagiarized characters, voice banks sourced from commercial artists and voice banks sourced without permission of the voice donor/source. UTAU usage policy also forbids voice banks taken from another brand of voice synthesis software without permission. (The only exceptions to this rule are Macne Families, FL-chan and Iku Acme; Voice sources/software/plugins deemed royalty-free are allowed.)
Do not recycle names (especially unique family names) which are not created by you. Conflicting names lead to misunderstandings. If you are eager to do, get the approval of the creator who came first beforehand. This rule will be relaxed when it comes to generic or common family names.
All entry removals must be explained, or they will be treated as vandalism.
For those who cannot edit wiki pages, but want to add their UTAUloids, please make a request in the discussion page.

How To Take Care of Your Camera


Lens Care

The lens of your digital camera is its eye or window to the outside world. It is easily the most important component in any camera. To take care of the lens, make sure that you never, ever touch directly with your fingers. Also make sure that you put on the lens cap when not shooting pictures.

If you really need to clean the lens, use good lens cleaning equipment. Investing in such equipment is really important. Always use a good lens brush, lens blower and lens cloth to do the job.


Temperature

The other thing to look out for is the temperature under which the camera is stored. You should always keep the camera out of sun. One mistake that newbies always make is to store the digital camera in the extremely hot temperatures (e.g. the car boot). Don’t ever do that. It’s also important not to store the camera in extremely cold temperatures either.


Storage

When storing your digital camera, you need to keep it away from magnets of any form. Magnets will affect the circuitry of your digital camera and should not be placed near it.

Another point to note is to use silica gel to combat condensation. Many electronic products come with silica gel capsules. Keep these and put them in your digital camera storage box. It will prevent condensation.

The batteries of the camera should also be removed if you intend to store the camera away for a long time. The reason is that batteries can have corrosive leaks over time.


Protect Delicate Components

You also need to protect those delicate components. In particular, watch out for the memory card (whether it is a CompactFlash, SD or MMC card). Handle them with care because they are small and delicate.

Camera panels are also very delicate. In my Canon PowerShot S500, the panel for the USB connect and the battery is a tad flimsy. I make sure I handle it with care whenever I open it.


Conclusion

You digital camera costs a lot of money and it pays to take care of it. Remember to apply the above tips to preserve your camera and it’ll last you a long, long time. Good luck!

Gomennasai~!

I will change this websites name.. from 'www.yukaritakeba.blogspot.com' to 'www.kagamineintuneland.blogspot.com' [P.S please do not copy this name, i hate those who likes to copy other people art T__T]

9 Easy Way [Taking Care of Your Laptop]


Taking care of yourlaptop is one of the most important things you should know. You
would want to take advantage of its full life, don’t you? It might have cost you quite a bit
out of your pocket so it is just proper that you’d do everything to take care of it and
maintain its good health. Here’s what every laptop owners should do to protect and
extend its life.
1. Do not eat and drink while you’re in front of your laptop. Spilled liquids and fallen
food crumbs and bits can easily damage the sensitive circuitry inside.
2. Do not touch the LCD screen. Close the lid gently by holding it with both hands when shutting it off. This is to avoid breaking it. It is also important to clean your monitor with approved cleaning materials only. Screen repairs don't come in real cheap so you may
want to make sure the monitor is taken cared of properly.

3. Keep its temperature cooler by installing a laptop cooler or chill mat to reduce its
operating temperature.

4. A laptop’s battery is like human muscles – if you don’t exercise it, it’d become useless. Use your laptop's battery until it tells you to recharge. At least once a week unplug it from the wall and let it run on battery power. This will make the battery life lasts much longer.

5. Do not let it run for straight two days, even on powerful laptops. Laptops can get very hot and leaving it on for a longer period of time may cause overheating. It is advisable to install software that automatically puts your laptop in a sleep or hibernate mode or even shut it down after a period of inactivity.

6. If you need to move and take your
laptop more than a few feet away, shut it
down or put it to sleep before moving on.
Do not walk with your laptop on because
you are risking the hard drive with every
stumble, stump, or jar you make.

7. Don't close anything inside your laptop.
There is a little clearance between the
screen and the keyboard and even a couple
sheets of paper can put stress onto the
screen. Also, avoid putting heavy objects
on top of your laptop. These careless
actions can damage and break the screen.

8. Get your laptop a carrying bag to reduce the risk of breaks because of laptop being
bumped to or dropped accidentally. Moreover, your laptop bag should be big enough to
avoid scratching and squeezing to contain the laptop inside the bag.

9. Guard its health by using antivirus software and firewall. Install antivirus and keep it
updated from time to time. Your internet-connected laptop is always at risk of being
infected with viruses, so you may want to take the necessary precautions. Data loss
because of viruses can give you headaches.

It really pays to take care of your laptop. It could save you a considerable amount of
money if you won’t have to bring it frequently to shops for repair. System crashes could
mean lost data so you may not want this to happen. Taking care of your laptop and
making sure that it is in its tip-top condition always is the only assurance your laptop
won’t play dead on you – unexpectedly.

Project Diva -Dreamy Theater-


As many people goes crazy with this 'Miku' thingy, (but not me... i hate Miku.. T_T*) i'm posting the news about 'Project Diva -Dreamy Theater-' That will be released in PS3 console.

With Sega announcing Project Diva -Dreamy Theater, this is actually a PSP-to-PS3 add-on for Project Diva that will transfer all saved data from the PSP and render your fave idol in Playstation 3. Of course, the graphics of the game will be “PS3″ quality. Need me to say more?

Ah yes, price is not confirmed yet and the release date is targeting for a summer release this year on Playstation Network.


(A comment from someone who likes miku, not me.. please, i will not write this thing)
Also, The PSP Go must be a sad piece of hardware. In concept, it's revolutionary. It's the first dedicated, all-digital game platform (phones notwithstanding), with full support for the PlayStation Network, several PS3-connectivity features and all the power of the PSP itself.

Unfortunately in practice it's kind of miserable. It costs too much, is saddled with some of the original PSP's flaws (where's my second analog nub?), and digital PSP games aren't cheaper or come out any faster, and in some cases don't come out at all.

Which makes the Dreamy Theater expansion pack to the mega-popular singing virtual idol game Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA all the more of a painful blow, even indirectly. The pack essentially allows Vocaloid fans to play Project DIVA through the PS3 (using a DualShock 3), which in turn upscales and re-renders the graphics to display Miku in high-definition, high-polycount glory. Now you can see Miku prance and sing on the big screen and pretend that she didn't obtain her motion capture data from a 13-year-old.

Worse still, seeing these screenshots of Dreamy Theater just makes me all the more disappointed that there still isn't a full-scale Miku PS3 game. Come on, Crypton Future Media and Sega! DO IT. You'll make bucketloads selling costume and song DLC anyway! Oh, and bring it across the pond, too. Pretty please!

-Another News-
As reported early last month, Sega is planning to release a PSP-to-PS3 connectivity add-on for the handheld rhythm game, 「Hatsune Miku -Project DIVA-」. This DLC — which has been given the name 「Dreamy Theater」 — will transfer all saved data from the PSP and allow for our very own virtual idol to be rendered in Playstation 3 level visuals on your TV screen. This will be compatible with all PSP models except for the PSPgo. Expect this unique and stylish app to go on sale later this Summer season. (Pricing has yet to be determined.)

New Vocaloid! Code Name [Lily]





New!! Vocaloid named, Lily will be released! But 'Crypton' confirmed via twitter that there is no connection between the new Vocaloid Lily and their company. Lily was shetched by KEI, also known as the creator of 'Hatsune Mix!'. Just open this link, anyway.. Lily looks just like Rin Kagamine and Megurine Luka, what a nice combination... <3 xD

Lily - Long yellow hair, a combination between Megurine Luka [03] and Rin Kagamine [02]
Although her dress may look more crazier than both of the vocaloid chara, but many of them said lily is beautiful

“Heart”
A robot was built by a lonely scientist,
When his work was done, it was known as a “miracle”
But something was missing, there was one thing he couldn’t do,
and that was the program called a “heart”
Many years passed,
and the miracle robot that had been left all alone,
made a single wish:
Give me the “heart”, that that person,
The person I’ve always wanted to know,
made for me, until the very end of his life.
Now that that miracle has started to occur,
Why, why won’t my tears stop flowing….?
Why am I shaking? What are these beats inside me?
Is this the “heart” that I wished for?
Mysterious heart, mysterious feelings,
All the joys I had come to know,
Mysterious heart, mysterious feelings,
All the depressing things I had come to know,
Mysterious heart, mysterious feelings,
They all seem so deeply painful…
Now I’m beginning to understand the reason I was born,
Being alone must truly be depressing,
Yes, on that day, at that time,
All the feelings that had dwelled in my memories flowed out of my heart.
But now, I can say these words for real,
to you, my creator, who dedicated his life to me,
Thank you… for bringing me into this world.
Thank you… for the days you spent with me.
Thank you… for everything you’ve given me
Thank you… I will sing for eternity.
