Request post&polls! ^__^
It's time to celebrate my fantastic flist, which has grown in covering 50 amazing LJ users! (Well, actually 48, but it's close enough~)Yey, now, give a big group hug and after that, make yourselves comfortable because there're millions of things I want to talk to you about. And, I'm also opening a request post -I know that's something most of you have looked forward to impatiently^^

Oh, and all of you want to help me sort out some of the issues I have concerning the upcoming +50 VIEWERS special, ne? *handing out mango muffins* Plus, I and [info]l_van have been toying around some ideas on creating a jrock comic, and we'd appreciate it enormously if you had time to click the third cut link to share your opinions and ideas.

But, let's cut to the business, shall we? ^__-

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


-VOTING POLL CLOSED-
You have all figured by now that I'm really fond of making icon batches of PVs/MVs, right? So, since I want to pamper my loyal flisters, I'm offering you a chance of deciding of which videos I'll make my next icons. This is how it works:
Here's 15 jrock PVs I have a)already capped, b)downloaded caps of, and/or c)I will icon sooner of later (so, if you want, sooner *lol*). Vote for three PVs you'd like to see as icons. Then, if you want to, you add a fourth PV/MV of your choice, meaning it can be any video, of any band or artist (doesn't need to be jrock-related; everything goes). I'm picking one of the requested vids and add icons of it to the said batch. However, by mentioning this fourth video thinggy I want to find out what kind of people I have on my flist (though in general I have quite a good visual on it^^), and if I see something interesting requested, I might get back to that later.
Please notice -when requesting the fourth video you should have it or know from where I could d/load it if I don't happen to have it, okey? :)

The list:
001#Ayabie Kuroi tsukasa sagui to shinegai
002#Ayabie Tsuki Koi
003#Kagrra, Utakata
004#Kagrra, Shizuku
005#MUCC Horizont
006#MUCC Ware Arubeki Basho
007#Alice Nine. Jewels
008#Alice Nine. NUMBER SIX.
009#Miyavi Ashita, Genki ni Naare
010#Miyavi Itoshii Hito [beta de suman]
011#Gazette Hyena
012#Gazette Taion
013#Gazette Cassis
014#SID Hosoe Koe
015#SID Ajisai


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Yes, my third request post! Yattaa, how fun's that? :D
You know, I could just say, 'hi, request two icons blah blah blah'. Naw, too simple~! So, to make things a little more difficult, I'm offering you two different ways of requesting.

001#Layout vamp-up: This is a limited request thinggy, and it's open as long as three people have left comments saying they want to take part to this. I'm going to make full LJ sets for three first commenters. (I update this post everytime one appears, but GO THROUGH THE COMMENTS as well, since I might have not updated the list before you ran into this.) I'm not providing codes, no, I suck at coding and there're places for all sorts of pre-made layout bases, etc. This is how it works:

*one LJ set will include: one header, one matching icon, one userinfo banner and, if needed, a FO
*state clearly that you're requesting a LJ set instead of icons
*copypaste and fill this form and leave it to me as a comment to this post (without my notes, of course):
-size of the header
-need a FO? (size of the FO)
-set: bnw or in colors
-subject of the set (can be anything you want, from a musician through movies to.. apples. anything)
-theme of the set, ONE WORD (since here I pick the pictures I want to use, I thought it'd be easier for me and nicer for you if you had a chance to affect the result. The theme word is what i play along when making the graphics. It can be something very abstract, f.ex. as 'pain', 'found', 'drowning', 'friends', 'lovely', or something more concrete: 'sky', 'singing', 'dogs', 'red', 'letters', 'jeans', 'laughing', 'apples' [geez, what's this sudden thing for apples? xD]... Let's say you requested Miyavi as your subject, and your theme word is 'top hat'.. then, I simply try and find piccies of Myv wearing a top hat. Or if you want a Heath Ledger set with word 'withering', I create something fitting to that theme. Simple, isn't it?^^)


002#ICONS
This request is open for everyone and stays open as long as I decide to close it.

*you can request for 1 to 2 icons (I might offer some variations, one never knows)
*link me the (HQ) pictures you want me to use
*tell me whether you want the icons to be mainly BNW OR IN COLORS (important~)
*want some specific texts OR want them to be textless?
*everything will be made for you and you only, if you don't specially insist sharing them *lol* Like someone would ;)


That's it~<3 Happy requesting, sweeties! ^__^


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


One more thing to go~

This is originally [info]l_van's idea, and I have no idea how she managed to talk me into this! ^__^ Well, it wasn't difficult, I think, since all my and her favourite pretty jrockers are involved, so.. *teehee*
We're going to start sharing a (weekly?) comic strip focusing on the members of Gazette. [info]l_van and I will write together (well, I guess she has to take more responsibility on that, since I'm a terrible writer *snickers*), I illustrate the scenes and she goes through the finished stuff before posting and decides whether it's crap or not (hey, that makes you the editor-in-chief, a title, how cool is that?! :D).
However, and this is where you step in, we're not good at coming up with funny stuff. I guess drama is more like our thing, but making a chibi comic full of angst and love affairs isn't probably the smartest idea. So, please, if you have any good ideas/thoughts/sick fantasies you'd like to see as comic strips, share with us! The main characters are our beloved GazeMen (*cough*and esp Uruha*cough* since we are SO NOT addicted to him *cough*), but we definitely want to see the other PSC artists making cameos every once in a while^__-

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Woah, lots of text. *leaning backwards, crossing hands across her chest* Hopefully most of you will comment, since I'm very excited about everything mentioned here before, esp the comic thinggy! I've never done anything like that before, so let's see how it will turn out^^~<3 (Superbly, of course, since [info]l_van is made of awesome *lol*)

And though I said this already, repeating hurts no one:
You can keep on requesting as long as I keep this post open. Please, read the rules carefully before requesting, I'm feeling way too lazy to try to intepret your wishes~

Make sure your comment is relatively clear, so I won't mistake your requests for your votes or screw things up in some other way -I'm a master at screwing things up, so.. yeah. Don't make it easy for me! ^__^;

Have a nice evening, and see you soon! Make mama proud&show your love *smirk*

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh, and I almost forgot! I have a new, sock-rocking affiliate.. *drums* [info]night_filth~! (Or, not new, but I haven't gotten my lazy ass to making a pimpage post before *lol*) Yes, those icons are so goddamn adorable, and I'm lucky to have such a wonderful affiliate^^ Click click, and enjoy the visual beauty~<3

wow, that's a bit of info there. XD Makes me excited. Especially that comic strip. I'll try and see if I can pick my brain for you. Until then here's my votes for the PV icons:

-002#Ayabie Tsuki Koi
-007#Alice Nine. Jewels
-012#Gazette Taion

Aww, thankies~! We actually have finally written script for the first strip, so it might show up here.. by the end of the week or so^__^

Thanks for your votes :D I'm really really hoping people'd vote Jewels to be iconed, since though the PV is sorta boring (at least to my taste), the boys look very good and iconing the scenes where they play would be such a pleasure *bouncy*

I'd love to request an LJ set but then again.. I want icons too. So I'll probably come back later with some pictures, okay? Or then LJ set. Not sure yet. But for now, I'm saving a spot for icons.

No rush -I'm gonna keep this open for a week or two, depending on the interest people show towards it. And there're still spots left for a LJ set -three, to be honest, no one's requested one *sob* -so take your time and think about it ^_-

I completely forgot this post. Oh well, so anyway. I can request as many icons I want? Well, I'll just post some pictures and you do what you can, okay? No need to make icons from all of these. And if you don't mind, I might be back to request some more icons because requesting is great fun.

Some Torchwood (Doctor Who's spin-off) screencaps. I don't know if they're spoilery, hopefully not. And they're not the best quality ever, sorry about that. :/

I make a few profile banners too, so you can pick your favourites^_^

oh yes, requests. I love to be given the chance to shove my opinions off on people, espeically when they ask for them ^_^

for the PVs, I'd like to see... hmm you don't really make it easy to choose, do you?
-Miyavi: Itoshii Hito
-Miyavi: Ashita, Genki ni Naare I've been in this sort of miyavi-ish mood lately... not to mention he's practically dropped off the face of the earth as far as news goes >.>
-Alice Nine: JEWELS because I haven't seen many icons from this blah pretty PV

and ACK. I'd love to have you re-vamp my layout... if that offer is still going? I've been meaning to do it for a while, but I'm awful at these sorts of things -.-"

INDEED, where's our Meev? O.o The last time I heard of him was when he was having fun at LA.. Hopefully he's just intriguing in order to surprise us, fangirls, big time^^

I'm going to keep the PV poll open for a few more weeks, but atm it seems that Jewels is going to be iconed -and I really hope so, since the guys look so beautiful! (The PV itself is rather boring, but who cares when there're pretty boys?^__-)

Yes, the offer is still going^__^ Actually, no one has yet chosen that option :'(

I would love to request just a icon because I love the way you create yours in general. Congratulations on the 50 users! I hope there will be even more to come. I love your comic strip idea and I'm so excited for you. I also enjoyed coming across your drawings as well!

Here is the pic and text for the icon:

:: pic
:: "there is just something in her eyes"

Hope they will work ok and feel free to make the icon in any style you like. :)

Thank you^_^ Hearing you liked my art makes me especially happy, since they're my beloved babies I treasure most in this world.
And I'm eagerly waiting for seeing how big this journal can actually grow (though, somehow, I prefer keeping it small-ish, so I can keep on having fun with you guys &returning the love properly. When there's around 50 comments to every post, that will be impossible~)

Aww, she's so pretty in that picture! It will be a joy to icon^__^ I'll try to come up with a few variations so you can find something that pleases you ^_-

I can't wait to see how the icon will turn out and much apologizes for replying so late. My college classes are taking a toll on me.

I can understand, I feel the same way when it comes to my art and it's always a treat to come across your drawings. I look forward to the ones to come.

I don't know if this possible since I already requested a icon but would there be anyway I might be able to request a header too? I'll be needing one for my lj soon when I change the layout. But, again a icon is fine enough if the header would be to much. However, if the header request would be ok I'll get the pic, text and what not posted over here for you later. Thank you once again and I do look forward to your art work to come!

No worries :) I know how school can come between you and the real life the fun stuff in life *lol*

Making a header won't be a problem^^ Actually, I'd love to make one<3 The amount of requests was quite tiny this time around (to my surprise, I have to admit), so I have plenty of time to make extra graphics. And because of that you don't have to take the whole "request" form thinggy too seriously -post as much pictures and ideas and details as you want :)

Thank you^__^ I might post the newest art pieces later tonight, if Imageshack doesn't go all bitchy on me.

[info]yuugure_requiem

I'm so going to go check out the new art pieces after I finish up this reply.

The type of header I was thinking of going for was something like this one you made. However I don't know if it would work with the caps I choose.
I thought perhaps maybe you could take a look through the screencaps and see which might work if any. Screencaps: 1, 2, 3, 4,
5,
6

The entire header it's self needs to be 511 x 302 and I don't know if you would want to add text to it but if you did maybe something from here could work?

I don't know if it's possible but could a friends only banner be made to match with the header? I hope those caps will work if not just let me know and I'll find something else. I also hope at the very least this reply made a little sense. I swear my brain is going little by little this week, I'll be so happy when finals are over. I thank you so very much for doing this.

Congrats for passing the finals :) Hopefully they went well?

*goes through the caps* Ah, these are perfect, don't worry about that :) It made me rather happy to see my old Kirsten header up^^ I'm quite sure I can come up with something similar, maybe in blue-ish color scheme.. *scribbling notes* Those caps work fine for the FO too.. *more notes* I think I'll get this up sometimes next week -this weekend is going to be infernal due to the millions of things I have to take care of, but in next week I should have time to tackle this set<3

Hi love! ^_^ I was just wondering if you'd be interested in making a layout for [info]silly_disco. :3 I'm just going to suggest the pics to use, but other than that, you're free to let your creative juices flow (because I completely trust your taste & love what you do ♥ *points to icon*). ^_^

size of the header: height: 300-450px; width: 600-800px
need a FO? (size of the FO): I don't think I need one.. yet. XD
set (bnw or in colors): Preferrably colored
subject of the set: Gazette's recent live pics (Jan 2007 onwards)
theme of the set: Umm.. How about "fun/happy moments", or the pics where they're interacting with the audience, or where they're all holding hands/jumping.. Whichever you think fits "silly disco" the most. XD

I would love if you could make a userinfo banner too, following the same theme (but of course small enough to fit the userinfo space). :3 I'm trying to figure out how to put the stuff in tables to make it neater, so I'll just base the size on whatever size you make the banner. :)

In exchange, I offer you my soul er... anything on my playlist! ...Which is still being updated btw. ^_^' Or maybe you'd like a concert? Or a picfic? XD (But it might take a while for me to get inspired, lol)

♥ I hope you consider my request! *huggles* I'm eagerly awaiting your response. :333 I'll credit you in the userinfo & in the "back-from-hiatus-with-a-new-look" post too.♥

And you should've known that I can't resist anything Gazette-related *grinning* Mmm, I saved some delicious Uru&Rei live pictures a while ago.. So many possibilities♥♥

Really, I don't need any special rewards for this, but.. if you insist.. after all, your playlist is quite a cave of treasures^__- Or a picfic.. such a treat<3 This definitely needs some consideration *dorky dance*

"Unproductive" is my second name *lol* My PV icons aren't making any progress -esp Itoshii Hito is difficult since I saw the most pefect icon of it a some time ago and now I just can't seem to find a way to get around it *meh*

I was wondering, since I'm about to try out a few ideas, if you wanted the banner have the texts "userinfo", "archive", etc on it? Or will you just place them elsewhere? I think I get the graphics done by Thursday (if the idea I have works out, that is^^). Should I just post the stuff here in my journal or do you want me to slip the graphics to you more.. discreetly (in a brown envelope with 'TOPSECRET' scribbled on it)? ^___~

I think Miyavi looks especially pretty in that PV, & whatever you do will just highlight that beauty. ^^ Taste is subjective, so just do what you can, and there will be someone else who will like your icons as much as you like that perfect one you saw. :)

It depends on you, really. :) I was thinking, if you made one with text, then I'll turn it into an image map on S1. If you made one without text, then I'll just use S2 and put the links in the sidebar. But if you're thinking of putting text, these would probably be the essential ones: Rules, Playlist, Leftovers, Music, Affiliates, Info (or userinfo/profile/about). Oh! And can you put "Silly Disco ver. 6.0 featuring the Gazette" or something like that? Even if it's just a small thing at the side, so it doesn't ruin the header, lol.

Haha, it's alright if you put it here. ^^ You can also use it to advertise for more people to request for layouts, if you want. :D

Aww, always as encouraging and diplomatic, I see^^ Thank you~<3 And yes, he's so beautiful in the said PV that my innocent virgin eyes hurt. I love his dress! If I ever got to cosplay a jrocker, my choice'd be Itoshii!Meev :) (Or Kagrra,'s Nao from his early crossdressing years~<3 )

The current "base" I have for your header would look terribly good with the links on it, so I think I'll go for option a). *laughs* And adding the info you asked isn't a problem -actually, I think it gives the banner the "spine" I've been lacking^_-

So, *groping for a piece of paper*, what's the size of the header? And you want a FO/semi-FO? Icons, of course.. any suggestions concerning the (possible)text on the header? Want your username attached to it? ^__^ I'll make this and yuugure_requiem's sets during next week, after I get my hands free from the PV crazyness~<3

thank you, thank you, thank you...i love you!! and please take your time, i don't mind if it takes a while. i know you're busy with your pv's and other projects, so if you get to me last it's cool.

well i really love the size of your header: it's big and gives tons of room for all sorts of yummy sakito goodness, so 800 x 447. if possible i would love to have profile layout picture as well, size 400 x 450 - i can slip it right into the one I'm currently using. i don't want my user name on anything, just in case i ever change my user name.

text? i have no idea. my mind is blank,i guess it could be anything. all i can really come up with: "If you need somebody to love, just look into my eyes" -BEATLES lyrics from "Any Time At All" - is that lame? i don't know, anything that you think works will be fine.

omg, thank you again. now i need to hunt around for a new premade lj layout code to fit it. too bad the one you're using from exxtent isn't around anymore...i'll figure it out. i'm so excited about the new header, it's going to be so amazing!! *happy dance*

Hello :)
Im not sure is it ok for me to comment on such an old entry, I dont know if the request thing is still open and would it be alright for me to ask for sth...but i thought i'd try. ^^
Im sorry if its not *apologises in advance*
What i would like to ask for is a header with my fandom and life motto on it. For the longest time i had the same layout, i only change headers from time to time. Right now i have one of the preettiest i ever had ^_^

^-^

Well, I never really closed this because I've been so busy with the other requests and graphic projects.. I just decided to let it be to see if there's still people interested in headers etc :)

So yesh, I'd be more than happy to decorate your pretty journal^^ Just give me the text, subject and/or links to pictures and the size of the graphic. Also, tell me if you want something else with it -icons, a FO, profile header..

And of couse, after reading your comment, I had to go and see the current header of yours, and gotta admit, I blushed quite badly^_^~<3 Thank you^.^

Thank You, truly ^_^
i really like my current header as its very pretty but minimalistic and its easy to match layout colors with it. Pink and grey. Its refreshing after having a black background for a long time.
As for the one Im making the request for..well i intented to give you Kai and Hiroto pictures, not only those are my biggest fandoms, but because those are ppl who in my opinion are very bright,kind,optimistic etc etc They make me smile. not grin, not giggle, not drool-kind of smile but a true, serene smile. I also wanted to have "Happiness is a state of mind" written on it. So the feelings i aimed for were joy of living and serenity. I knew it will be hard to find matching pictures of those two. I thought of either getting caps and making it look like photos from an album or fiding really matching pics in a similar style OR making both pics black and white so the whole thing wouldnt be too eclectic. The task turned out to be more difficult than i imagined. I cant find good Hiroto pic in my collection. I might look through the videos and try to make caps x_x If you think its not possible or too tricky to get pics that would look GOOD together, then Im fine with Kai himself. and in that case i would leave all the invention to you. You're the artist , not me, so feel free to use your own imagination/ideas etc. Even choose different pics than those which i will post. It really doesnt matter that much since i know that the final effect will be good. ^_^ I only wouldnt want it to be too flashy or colorfull. its always pain in the neck to find matching patterns or backgrounds for such graphics. I usually like dark colors, i cant stand looking at bright ones, however its not a rule, obviously- since i love my current header which does not have any black in it. and its perfect. Please, if you have some idea or need some pics, i will get them. Coz as you can see i thought of the general concept but dont really have an idea for the materials. I like minimalism but also liked what you made for les_cuki - the gazette header. Its awesome- the colors,living pictures and scrap-bookiness. I believe it would be possible to make hiroto and kai header in that style and make it look good, ne? but i'll leave it to you for now. I'll post some pics now and when you think of what you want to make, just poke me and i'll be happy to find pics for you? if you'll need them, that is. If im babbling and if you dont like it at all, please do tell whithout hestation too. I'll understand. I wouldnt want to talk with myself _^_
I put the pics in my photobucket account. Feel free to browse through other folders too. I'll find more good pics later, if thats alright.

Mmm, I was positively surprised when I read your comment :D

See, usually people just spam me with pictures and say whatever I decide to make out of them is okay, or then they just drop the subject and leave me drowning into the deep ocean of endless ideas.. you can color and crop one picture in thousands of ways, not to mention lights and other effects *shudders* So, actually having a requester who knows what she wants makes me ridiculously happy^^b

Jabber away, sweety *giggles* I tend to do that too, so I understand^-^ Talking is great fun~<3 And fangirling even funnier~<3 And when those two are combined.. oh boys~

I really love your concept :) Kai has that similar effect on me -he brings joy to my life. No matter how shitty my day has been, I only need to take a brief peek at his shining eyes and pretty dimples and I'm filled with life and energy again^_^ Uruha is there to be drooled over, but Kai's the one who's keeping me sane *lol*

Combining him with Pon will be challenging, but not impossible *tilting head from side to side* I have already a hew ideas.. Oh yes, I tried to get to see your pictures, but it seems to be password-protected? ^^

So, I'm trying to create this.. sort of manipulation.. and if that doesn't work out well enough, I'll probably make something scrapbookiness, like you requested :) Or, if one of those rare moments of brilliance hit me, I might be able to combine those two elements *head buzzing*

So, when I get access to your PB and I've seen what you got there, I'll get back to you if I need something more. I have to finish one request before this, but it should take too long^^ Plus, it's summer, and I have no job, so I can be useless as well and spend my time with my beloved Ahiru (yes, I've named my laptop *chuckles*)

*palm-head* Password. of course. Im sorry,it was after 1 am when i was typing it. Here- http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v257/Alinkie/HEADER/ Ive made it public , you should be able to view it now ^^;

Im very glad that you like it and that my request isnt too much of a bother.

Please dont forget about "happiness is a state of mind". It doesnet matter where should it be written, in what style or size. I just want it to be visible/readable. ^_^

Im very happy that you perceive Kai in a similar way I do. that makes things easier. Pon's different but he's a bundle of positive energy too. However only Kai can make me strech my smile from one ear to another xD
If you were to do it like the mentioned Gazette header, than I'll have to get more pics. If you need specific ones, do tell. Im gonna get them when I'm back from work. Eeek gotta go.
Thank you for helping me!

^^ I promise, I won't<3 I'll try to build the graphic around the text somehow~

I'm not 100% sure what I'm going to make, but I have this feeling I might need some more pictures of Pon, maybe a few of Kai, too.. *pondering* I really loved the selection you had uploaded for me, and I'm definitely trying to use the Pon!Kitty picture (aww, too adorable!!)^__^ But, if I made the Gazette header type of header and used the Pon in Yokohama scan, it would make the header look a little unbalanced, since Kai's pictures are mostly live stuff :) *bat at explaining* So, perhaps, some Pon live shots or some Kai photoshoot photos, if there are any in which he's his smiling charming usual himself?^^

Don't stress too much over the photos, if you can't find any you like enough. I'm sure I can come up with something cool and appropriate with these, too^_^

And you're the most welcome♥

*wanders back to awwww over Pon and the kitty*
