Hey everyone,
I sort of neglected the site for a while, due to school (ew, summatives) but I've still been busy with the wonderful Photoshop. 
Ok, so considering there's a whole bunch of new random blends that aren't really desktops, I'm going to change the "Desktop" section to "Blends".
I've been entering loads of challenges and there's a bunch of new awards (I now have 10 golds!!)
There's also a couple of new Icons and another banner (I realised that the page for "banners" wasn't working... I'll check what's going on).


6 November, 2005

I entered another challenge (as usual), the blend being a Goblet of Fire one for the Yule Ball; check desktops. 
For the fun of it, I decided to put up a BotM (Blend of the Month) that I made in that month.  This one is an Avril Lavigne one that made with a tutorial (hehe) and I actually liked the outcome. 


2 November, 2005

Hey everyone.  I made another Veronica Mars desktop.  I love that show.
In the time that it took me to update this site, I've entered/won awards in challenges!  See Awards.
I also made a couple of avatars in the "Other" section.

Sorry, the lack of updates is due to school work... I've been so stressed lately because of projects and essays and such.  But I made a Harry/Hermione desktop.  Yes, I'm back into my Harry/Hermione phase.  I know its not canon, but considering how many of the shippers love the craziest pairings *cough*Snape/Hermione*cough* (sorry... I just dont like the idea of Hermione screwing someone who could be her father's age) I dont think Harry/Hermione is a problem.  But that's enough of me ranting about the shippings (the word Nat thinks is simply hillarious). 
P.S. I just want to add that its kind of amusing how only one new desktop can have such a big paragraph for an update...

I made a new Avril Lavigne desktop.  I had lots of fun with that one.  :) 


22 September, 2005

I changed the way the desktops are displayed so that now you can see the thumbnail before, to get a little preview . 
I entered two challenges on Reflective Desires, one on Broken Heart Blends 
and one on Alohomora Blends


17 September, 2005

I entered a couple other challenges again, and one of the desktops is called "Nature" in the Other's section.


11 September, 2005

New desktop: Charlie Hunnam.  I really like that guy lol.  Lyrics from the song "Safe and Sound" by Sheryl Crow.
New desktop: "Verconica and Logan" from the show "Veronica mars".
New signature: "Harry Potter", lyrics from the song "Learn To Fly" by the Foo Fighters.


10 September, 2005

I made a new Howie Day desktop (finally...), lyrics from his song "I'll Take You On", and a Charlie Hunnam avatar.  I was listening to the song "You Look So Fine" by Garbage, and the picture I used for that avatar was just too perfect for it. 
The blend challenge ended!  No, I didn't win the big awards or anything, but it was my first try at a blend challenge so I hardly mind.  Practice makes perfect . 


6 September, 2005

Yet again, a new Harry Potter desktop.  Hehe, can you tell I'm looking forward to the next movie?
There's a new "texture", or whatever you want to call it.  I was so creative that I called it "Texture".
New desktop called "Wonderwall" (yes, the song lol) in "Others" section.
hehe and another new desktop called "Destiny" from the song "Destiny" by Zero.  Also in "Others" section. 


5 September, 2005

Lately I've found many lyrics in songs very lovely and decided to make desktops for them.  LoL that's the way I think.... I made a desktop called "Slow Motion Accident", lyrics from the song "Hear Me Out" by Frou Frou.  Its in the "Others" section.  And after much wasted time on photoshop, I discovered something about the color fill tool, and i played around with it and made "Slow Motion Accident version 2".
New Avril Lavigne desktop 06. 


29 August, 2005

New desktop: "Harry and Ginny"; as you might notice, the lyrics are from the song "Wonderwall" by Oasis, my new favorite song.  I thank Chanti for introducing it to me ^-^.  Its an amazing song. 
For lack of space on this site, I have made a new site for my signatures and avatars, and my new page "Textures/Backgrounds".  The links appear on the Navbar of this site, so its just as if they were pages of this site.  Now I have enough space for all those desktops I make.  LoL :P. 


28 August, 2005

New desktops, 'Avril Lavigne 06', 'Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire', and 'R e m e m b e r'.


25 August, 2005

I finally got the Guestbook!  And I cleared a bunch of older stuff, cause Freewebs doesn't let you upload more than 50 things.  Gah.  But there's a new Kelly Clarkson desktop, and a new Harry Potter desktop too.  I made those two for a blend contest on http://simplistic-desires.co.uk/reflective-desires/index.php, (the reason they're saved under strange names) and there are 2 new desktops in "Other".  Can you see I've been having fun with photoshop?


16 August, 2005

I added 2 new signatures "Avril Lavigne 02" and "Autumn".  6 days left until Guestbook!


15 August, 2005

Well, basically I made this site today.  So don't expect me to update too quickly.  I am going to add a Guestbook soon, when the site lets me; you have to have the account for 7 days before creating a Guestbook.  *Waits patiently*.
