A pixel is worth 1,000 words

Well I tried my best to write this tutorial since I had issues with the my internet i've been messing around in photoshop alot more. Hope it makes sense. I've never been good at teaching ^_^.

Old Movie "Still Image" Animation Tutorial

Using Photoshop 7+ (I used CS2)

( My First Tutorial )

Based off of a whole mess of "My Anti-Drug" banners that I did for Fullmetal Alchemist. I thought "heck i'll make some for Host Club too".

Don't Hotlink. Save to your own server. No need to link back but it does help let people know where you found it.

( My Anti-Drug is Lj-Cuts )

I'm not doing any requests at this time but if you have an idea for a "anti-drug" banner you can suggest it below. It cannot be any longer than 17 characters, including spaces. I can do Japanese, kanji or kana, anti-drugs banner as well.

I made another special "Host Club" Banner on the same day so you can check it out at [this link] if you are interested.</

I love love making banners and spreading the love of certain series. For that reason this banner was created first because I wanted a banner like [this one I made] done to Ouran High School Host Club. And then I figured i'd share it. It's one of those nice little things to put in your User Info to show you are a "Host Club" fan.

Please don't hotlink this banner. No stealing bandwith, mkay!! And Please link back to this page.

I'm not happy. I wanted to make a whole mess of actual animated icons and a whole lot more icons from some of these series. So i'll probably be making even more icons very soon. Though it's very fitting for me to post icons on 07/07 because it's my favorite number ^^

Probably one of the smaller icon posts i've done in awhile but I just wanted to get these out now :) Wait! Shouldn't I be studying for finals?!

Last time I do this for awhile. This was in response to some people on my journal that wanted me to combine Sasuke and Syaoran together. Well they wanted CCS Syaoran but I just didn't like the pictures I had of him so instead I made this. I think all the characters work nicely in it except I don't think Naruto fits. This is what you get when you mix Naruto and Tsubasa Chronicle together.

Here is a link to the Cardcaptor Sakura Haruno edit [here]

( Chakra Chronicle )

Hopefully tonight I will be posting the biggest icon post for my journal thus far.

Yeah this was fun. This is what you get when you mix Naruto and Cardcaptor Sakura together. Like I said, it's just another random boredom attack.

( Cardcaptor Sakura Haruno )

Hopefully tomorrow I will be posting the biggest icon post for my journal thus far. All i can say is that it will have Fullmetal Alchemist, Bleach, Tsubasa Chronicle, Kingdom Hearts II (no spoilers), and some other random animes. Also I will be posting some *gasp* icons other than anime.

White Day 2006: The 2nd Annual LJ White Day Event

Last years White Day was the start of a pretty big success so I decided to continue this and make it an annual event. Last year it was held at anijgrl7 and this year it's being held at ani_art due to the fact that not everyone would be able to view the post.

White Day is a day to celebrate the people in your life. *Please comment if you are going to participate, I love to hear it. Please read the FAQ section before posting a question or comment.

White Day on LJ:

March 14, 2006 is the date of White Day.

The rules for White Day are simple:
1) Thank all your friends, family, and/or significant others for their love/friendship.
2) You can give them a small token, small presents, of appreciation.
3) Or you can just thank all of them in a post.
4) Or use one of the many banners that I will be creating
5) Tell all your friends about the holiday by referring them to this post.

I made an Alphonse inspired layout for my icon journal today. First time making one for this LJ. So check it out and tell me if there are any problems with it or it's not working in any screen resolutions please :) Oh and if someone knows how to add links to the top let me know. I know how to embed them into the image but I just want to put some simple links on the top.

Edit: Had to keep the blue kitty mood theme since the colors fit and Al luvs kitties :)

Edit: Ok so I don't like how it looks in Mozilla but I tried. Funny b/c i'm usually able to fix all of that stuff but I guess since I don't have the time right now i'm just not bothering.

No icons. But will be coming soon. I decided to post some FMA Photoshop edit today.

See what you make when you are seriously bored.

We are in class right now. Been sitting here for an hour. We have done nothing in class. I obviously had way too much time on my hands.

This is my "last of the winter icons before I go back to school on monday" post. I think i'm improving each time I make icons :) Course they aren't as good as my friend, but she's had a few extra years more experience.

53 Spoiler free icons this time. No Naruto ones but I did make an edit with a FMA/Naruto crossover. I enjoyed making the Black Cat ones the most this time.

I think school has really ruined my artistic visions, which is funny b/c my icons during school are more arty. But these are just all for fun.

Since there are a lot of people on here that I don't know I was just wondering if you could answer a few questions for me so I can see what I should do on this journal more.

My icon journal meme:
1. Why did you decide to friend me?
2. What type of icons do you like? (Ie animated, still, textless, comedic, serious)
3. What icons/banners do you have of mine? (ie what manga or anime caused you to friend me)

If you have the time to answer these 3 questions I would appreciate it becuase I'll know what icons to focus on "more" from what my flist likes ^_^ And i'll know if people like certain series that I may have overlooked that I might have made a few icons for.

Wow I finally made some icons again. Actually I made most of these today and about a third awhile ago.

Be warned that icons in some of the groups are slightly spoilerish. Ie. they aren't huge spoilers but minor spoilers.

( 27 Icons in Total, No Homework done yet )

Sorry to those who saw this on my personal LJ. I meant to put it up here and link the other one to this one.

I hope to get to finish all the art I promised people and put some icons up soon.

Of'course I should have been doing homework instead. Well time better spent doing homework was done doing this.
