sorry guys

I know I've been kinda slack on the updates lately, but I promise to start keeping up. I haven't really been making anything lately, and so there has been nothing to post.

I've just put up a new layout and revamped the userinfo/rules section.

I am actually getting tired of this journal, and have been thinking about a collaboration community/journal. Is anyone interested?

Anyhow, I do have a bunch of icons that I have to work on, so I'm going to finish those this week (hopefully).

long time, no new icons... ne?

Oops, posted this in my personal journal the first time.

stock photos = 1
Seventeen Jp models = 1
Hello! Project (Kusumi Koharu, Abe Natsumi, Goto Maki) = 6
PGSM actresses (Mew & Keiko) = 2

amazing!!~

Wow, it's officially been two years since I started this.
It went from an icon journal, to a graphics community.

I've been on an unofficial hiatus for a long time now. I slowly stopped making graphics when I came back to school. I guess I get too much of it in the classroom. Anyway, I'm trying to bring myself back, so thank you to everyone who has kept watching this long.

I'm still looking for other artists or icon makers to post here. If anyone is interested, drop me a line!!

Make sure you keep watching, hopefully I'll have enough icons to make a post soon!!

A bunch of wallpapers before I get to the request that was made last week. (I did these while I had no internet, so I wasn't really forgetting that the request was made).

Since I use these wallpapers myself, or that's what they're normally created as... They're all mostly the same style. And that also means I've made them all 1280x1024. I think that's the size. I'm too lazy to check.

Also, I make the wallpapers in PS 7.0 set at 50% of the original size, so the tiny unreadable text is more readable than I'd like.
The blue Ayaka features lyrics from Tori Amos' song Putting the Damage On; the brown Ayaka (which is my current desktop) has messed up lyrics from Jounetsu Yuki Miraisen - an awesome Coconuts Musume song (from the Mika, Akaya & Lehua era).
Uh... The Mikitty text is just a brush, one of the Asami's has text from Harry Potter & the Order of the Pheonix - the scene from the pensive when Remus, Sirius, James and Peter are talking about the werewolf question, and I think one of the other ones has a Joel Plaskett song. They're too big - the text was done from memory/by ear and is far from perfect. If it bothers you, make your own damn wallpapers.

So now, I bring you...
04 x Abe Asami (3 are older)
02 x Kimura Ayaka
01 x Fujimoto Miki

Also, 03 x BSSM icons that were made for contests last week.

The second won best coloring. I'll update this entry later with the communities they were entered in.

I also think it's time for a new layout.

Said I'd be posting more icons. These are just the ones I had uploaded. There are more like the Jupiter one. It's actually part of a set. I'll post the others when I get back to Woodstock.
For now, these are all contest entries. Or at least they all were intended to be when I began them.

Fresh batch!

mieru — Wed, 08 Jun 2005 23:15:54 GMT

Hello! Project this time.
I'll have another update this weekend. (At least 5 icons.) I'm just waiting for the contests to end before I post the two I entered + the other three from a set.

4 x Fujimoto Miki
3 x Iida Kaori
3 x Goto Maki
1 x Hamasaki Ayumi

01 02 03 04
05 06 07 08
09 10 11

Link to my resource page in my userinfo.
Almost all small text is Elliott Smith lyrics. I'll try to pinpoint them again.

CUSTOMIZE THE TEXTLESS ALL YOU WANT, BUT GIVE ME CREDIT FOR THE BASE.
All other icons - Comment, credit, DON'T customize.

cause it's the fire in your eyes

mieru — Mon, 06 Jun 2005 01:07:07 GMT

YO. I'm not dead! (GASP!)
No, I've been away without high-speed. And at school. Trying to pass the year.
But, now that I'm into the new apartment and have high-speed again... it means... ICONS.
Eventually, anyhow. I revamped the journal, and I'm going to work on some icons this week.

Something else I've been thinking about is taking on another couple icon makers.
But it's just an idea right now, as I'm not sure if there's anyone out there who might want to.
So if you do, reply here!

Also, if you have any suggestions for icon themes or such, leave them here too.
And if you want to add you as an affiliate... RIGHT HERE!
Or if there's anything else you want to say.

Since I never updated sirento I figured it was time for a change. So my change is that I've made it a community for easier posting and editing.

So this is the post where you'll find everything that was located here before. Watch out - many icons lie beyond. It starts with the almost newest.

I'll edit the numbers and so forth when I have time. For now it's a jumble of everything that was here earlier.
