.Layout
This layout, featuring Chris Lightfellow of Suikoden III fame, was coded by miluda. I used Photoshop 7.0 and coded the layout from scratch. The mood icon set of Lady Chris Lightfellow in her grasslander clothes were individually scanned. I've tested this layout with Opera, Firefox, Safari, and Internet Explorer and they all seem to view it fine!

Agrias is holding a Mirusu/Mils (my mascot/representation) button. Her design got a little updated since the last time. These aren't for sale. I'm hoping my Japanese friends will like them when I give them out while I'm there. If time permits, I'm going to try to make some personalized ones.
I am home now and my Japan tickets are purchased. I think the odds are pretty high that I'm staying in Ueno... hope we get that place because it seems real nice to be next to Akihabara. I almost can't believe I am actually going to Japan this time and not just... well, not having plans fall apart on me. This time, I'm really going. Really going. I worry a bit about the language barrier but I think I'm more excited to see my friends than anything else. Kind of a little worried that I will offend them somehow...
I'm a little lazy about posting pictures from AX. Maybe I'll be unlazy another time. Oh boo. Is it just me or does Fanime and AX almost feel like one big, long convention with a huge break in the middle...?
Starting to kick around doujinshi ideas for a doujinshi my group circle (I've got one now) is working on and I am hoping it comes really close to how I have it in my head.

Meow. I always wanted a mascot and I finally have one!
Edit: ( The roleplayer meme everyone has already done )

AX finished. I think my Cirno was quite the success even though I was hitting people with my wings! I'm pretty lazy about doing a huge con-report and we just about spent most of our time hanging out, so there probably isn't really much to write about. The Touhou meet was more than huge and I had a few fun times playing Scarlet Weather Rhapsody with various people. I won most of them in the four days I had the chance to play... I really wish I could kick my ass to spend more time in this game to get better at it. Played too much IaMP in the past and they are just too different.
I saw quite a few people that I met at last year's con and am left wishing we could have had a longer time to hang out. Day 1 felt like Day 4, Day 2 like Day 3, and so on, so by the time the actual Day 4 came by, it felt much too short. AX came by way too quickly this year and it left just as fast. I suppose that means that my trip to Japan will come just as soon and I don't feel quite as ready... but I know it will be fun. I'm just pleased that our hotel room was much bigger and the weather wasn't as hot as last year's.
People I saw/hung out with/waved hello to: xxnobu, rabidpotato, breadf, _nayuki, sakura_nek0, continuing, fr00ty_pebbles, shizushizu, chibi_bahamut, pantsu_pirate, moondabor, oj_lisu, midnight_tiger, Monty Oum, Woof, Wen-M, technically Kurot, and a bunch of other people I'm forgetting... sorry
Oh... and I bought a lot of doujinshi again. Ah... I'm going to enjoy reading them all when I get home. Disneyland is tomorrow and a museum the day after. I'm going to be so sore and dead by the time I get home. I miss everyone a whole lot.
Thanks to my friend Chris (of Hen da ne!), he was able to get his hands on a Fumo Fumo Alice, so I was fortunate to have an Alice for only 32 dollars. It's like I'm so happy to have this doll that I can't even show it................ ah, I really miss everyone so much... btw i love alice
Hi ToysLogic, are you still reading my LiveJournal?

Since fewer and fewer bad things are happening compared to before all I post now is art. That is good, I think? Click the cut if you like the first pic.
( It continues. )
The posts are here on drawr.
In other news, I am leaving for Southern California on Wednesday for various things including AX and Disneyland. Trip will be about two weeks! Cirno cosplay is 90% complete, now there's only the wings left... which I love Liz very much for, as she is making the wings and also bringing them to AX. THANK YOU.
Getting more and more excited about the coming Summer Comiket! After the Touhou-only event completed this weekend, I see a lot of my friends getting real psyched about meeting each other again at Comiket. It's going to be a great time.

 Another doodle of Alice.
( Reimu doodle on Tegaki E )
The Cirno outfit is coming along... getting my hair cut later today.
In about a week, I'm going to Southern California to hang out and relax before AX arrives. Then... AX! Then... Disneyland! And then back home again. Then... preparing to go Japan! Hooray! I really hope I can get around with the Japanese skill level I have... speaking is an entirely different thing from writing.
Events I'll be at: Animelo. Summer Comiket. Aug 30th Touhou only event. It's going to be a blast... and I'm going to be broke after!
I've been trying to set up a Wordpress website since it seems easier that way, but just can't figure out which plug-in is the best for an art gallery... plenty of great plug-ins to show photos and stuff, but I feel like it's different with my artwork. If you have any experience in this area I'd be more than happy to have some help! So far I've set up Wordpress in its default stage, so I've gotten as far as the famous "5 minute" set-up stage. Haha.
If you want a little pick-me-up, these cute jumping pixel art did the work for me. Maybe it'll work for you? They are all made by a friend of mine, and if you click the Japanese text below them, you can visit 8bit's website. They are mascot-like versions of some of her friends, the first one being me.

The past few days have been spent thinking about the PAST. You know that can't be a good thing. What about the PAST have I been wondering about? Mostly things I have no answer to. PAST is defined as about almost two years ago. Something like that. Anything past that including my relationship with Haruka? I actually have no problems with. I wish I could have figured out all the details during the part after Haruka. Hey. PAST in this paragraph is capitalized, like in those old Final Fantasy games.
Is it ex-curiosity? I actually don't think so. It's more like, I wish I had an identity of that person. I don't actually wonder about how Haruka is except I hope she's fine like I am now.
There was a time in my life where I really thought something wonderful was going to happen from that. I only wonder to this day because the human mind wonders about the unknown, especially one as personal as that. I think you knew how happy I could have been.
The funny thing is, I tried really hard make sure it wasn't a rebound. It wasn't. It was a true feeling, but I overlooked the fact that I had turned a blind eye over silly things as "if you love me that much, then..." sort of things.
That segment in my life is probably the only thing that never really got closure. At least with Haruka, it was all truth that I fought. I mean, I could even see a face. Hear a voice.
Life is what life is, and regret isn't in mine, but unfortunately unknown runs rampant in that segment of my life. I guess I truly will never know.
But you know, life is not bad now. I am happy now and I actually don't have anything bogging me down except by my own laziness!
In gaming news, L4D2 is coming out. That was quick, Valve. Are we still going to get downloadable content for the first game? I'm going to miss Zoey. Even to this day TF2 is still getting attention fron Valve, so why suddenly L4D2?
I revived my deviantART. I am slowly adding works to catch up to the present time.
In other news, I was thinking of opening commissions. Are you interested? It's for my trip to Japan this August, and this time I'm going for better reasons--and well, actually going. If people seem interested I'll post more information about it.

After going crazy in cutting circles, circles, and more circles, I now have a batch of buttons to sell at FanimeCon along with my unsold Santa Cruz print sale prints. This time, the prints will be at the proper target demographics so I hope they will sell even better than they did previously. Thanks to Michael ( oj_lisu) and his super button machine!!!!! We're sharing a table together and I hope it goes well~ I hope that one day I could even invest in something cool like that but I think if I want to make more I'll at least purchase more parts if I borrow his machine. Will I be taking commission at the table? We'll see how I feel then, too.
Will you be at FanimeCon? If I end up finding net connection or some such to catch your comment, perhaps we could meet up there! I definitely will be at the Touhou meet on Saturday at 3PM, though. Where is it? UHH...... maybe it's written in the book? Eheh...
Outfits to spot me in: Reimu, PC98 Alice, Kaguya. ...and normal clothes maybe? We'll see how I feel!
In other news THANKS TO THE ANONYMOUS THAT SENT ME THAT NICE LJ 10TH BIRTHDAY CAKE!!! It looks very awesome in my profile, thank you!!!!!
