Version Ten
Title: Someday I'll Fly
Featuring Random art found on a google search
Type Div Layers
Created: July 2010
Made With: Paint.NET, Notepad
Comments: I felt like changing it up a bit, and I had this program that my boyfriend had installed on my computer
for me roughly six months ago that I just haven't touched. MS Paint I'm sorry I cheated on you my love, but I couldn't
resist fooling around with layers.
Version Nine
Title: Little Wolf Girl
Featuring Art by Amelia Arsenic
Type Div Layers
Created: January 2010
Made With: Microsoft Paint, Irfanview, Notepad
Comments: I needed something new for the new year, and the artwork piece was just too good not to use.
Version Eight
Title: Ultra Blue
Featuring: Utada Hikaru
Type: Div Layers
Created: June 2008
Made With: Microsoft Paint, Irfanview, Notepad
Comments: There seems to be an ongoing thing with me making layouts and updating this website maybe once a
year, its really bad. Anyway, I felt that the domain was in desperate need of a change, so I more or less copy
pasted Card Vault's layout, changed some colors and
gathered some nice pictures and Jesus do I love the way this came out. This layout came out far better than I had
expected it would. I love everything about this layout, especially the color scheme. Best part is it didn't
take long at all to create the layout since I really did just change a few things to a previous layout I made. <3
Version Seven
Title: Movie Star
Featuring Megu of Zwei
Type Div Layers
Created: August 2007
Made With: Microsoft Paint, Irfanview, Notepad
Comments: I wanted to switch over to something bright after almost a full year of such a dark and depressing layout.
I decided to go with a member of a band that I've recently gotten into, Zwei thanks to a certain someone
(Hildred I'll give you all the sex you want love).
Incredibly simple, but it was a nice change.
Version Six
Title: A Little Pain
Featuring Anna Tsuchiya
Type Div Layers
Created: October 2006
Made With: Microsoft Paint, Irfanview, Notepad
Comments: When I saw this image online I instantly felt inspired to make a layout. I was going through a
really hard time while I was making this layout (broke up with my ex-boyfriend of 6 years) hence the dark theme
and somewhat serious lyrics (a little pain by OLIVIA) featured on the layout. It was a good concept but not
well executed. I could see the background repeating and pages that went past Anna's hip didn't work out too well
either. I tweaked and darkened the original image, and it came out really well in the very least. Even now though
the lyrics still strike a nerve with me, oh man emo. :x
Version Five
Title: Taste my Beat
Featuring Anna Tsuchiya
Type Div Layers
Created: May 2006
Made With: Microsoft Paint, Irfanview, Notepad
Comments: When I made this I really liked the way it came out in terms of navigation and what not. So much that I made a similar layout for
The Card Vault (If you would like to view it,
click here.) I also absoloutly love Anna Tsuchiya, and my favorite color also happens to be red.
So I definently like the way that this one came out.
Version Four
Title: Best
Featuring: Kumi Koda
Type: Iframes
Created: April 2006
Made With: Microsoft Paint, Irfanview, Notepad
Comments: My first time playing with transparencies and the scroller javas! This layout would not have been possible without
Version Three
Title: Control
Featuring: Princess Ai
Type: Iframes
Created: March 2006
Made With: Microsoft Paint, Irfanview, Notepad
Comments: After the nightmare of the layout previous, I decided to really refresh my iframes skills and found this lovely picture of
Princess Ai while browsing around. The layout took minutes to slap together in terms of the coding, but the actual header image took HOURS
to edit. I can tell you right now that the image wasn't quite that vibrant (in terms of image and color quality) and it did not have a black
background. So I did alot of editing changed the background, going in and pixeling the old background color out of the edges of Ai, and then
finally adjusted the colors. Overall it's a very cute layout, and was a very very VERY nice dark contrast to the previous two layouts.
Version Two
Title: How High?
Featuring: Jet Li
Type: Iframes
Created: February 2006
Made With: Microsoft Paint, Irfanview, Notepad
Comments: To be honest I hate this layout. My previous layout was very narrow, and at the time I displayed all my tcg
collections on this site (they have since been moved to their own site, The Card Vault)
so I decided to make an iframes layout that had a huge content area. Note to self: Making a layout out of convenience especially
since I'm an incredibly lazy person when it comes to making layouts is a shitty idea. It took me a while to make this one too, considering
it had been YEARS since the last time I've made layouts using Iframes.
Version One
Title: Our Love is Cherry Coated
Featuring: Chii from Chobits
Type: Div Layers
Created: November 2005
Made With: Microsoft Paint, Irfanview, Notepad
Comments: I really liked this layout. I put it together in maybe a half an hour, used very VERY basic div
layers. It was incredibly simple but it worked out nicely. This is by far one of my favorite layouts I've ever
made purely because I don't normally make layouts that are so... Pink.
