Well, I'm Olivia and this is my blog. I'm not too good at describing myself but you can get to know me and become my friend if you want to. I like to make wallpapers and vectors in my free time. If you're curious and want to find out more about me, check this page ^_^
My main goal isn't having a lot of downloads on my wallpapers, but providing high quality graphics. I try to credit as much as possible, but if you think I used something of yours without permission, please notify me and we will discuss the matter.
Here's my e-mail address, in case you need it: devlish_pandemonium@yahoo.com. Please don't spam me and please don't add me to your messenger list unless we're good friends (and please, PLEASE tell me who you are here when you add me ^_^)
I've kind of stopped commenting on artwork. You'll still see me around, but only on better-than-average works. Why? Simply because I've been in the graphics "business" for some time and now I have higher standards than before; also, most of the works here are similar and I've grown tired of giving the same advice, over and over again. Sorry, but you'll only see a comment of mine if I like your work.

- Don't steal my graphics a.k.a. remove the credits and/or post them on other sites. If you need something I used, just PM me and I'll tell you where I got it from.

- When signing my guest book, please write more than one line. No "I love your site, I'm addin ya!", please. And absolutely NO "Visit my site!" stuff! I'll ignore these posts (and the posters). Be creative. If you sign my guest book abiding by these rules, I'll visit your site and sign yours :] I might be late signing it, but don't worry, I will sign it.

- Let's get this straight. If you want me as a friend, visit my site and comment on my posts and/or wallpapers. I'm not asking you to comment on each and every one; once in a while is enough :] I don't update too often (once a week at most), so it shouldn't be difficult to come by and leave a comment. If you're busy, I'll understand.

- If you're PM'ing me to complain about something, provide arguments. I won't pay attention to stuff which doesn't make sense.

If you have a question, please read the rules first. If it isn't answered there, feel free to ask me. Please be polite and I will be as well.

You can find my works on these sites:

Presentation, test and Photoshop project

Wow, I'm posting again, and barely 2 days after the last one! The world as we know it is no more. Thank you to everyone for the comments! *glomps people whether they like it or not* Oh, I discovered a new thing in Photoshop: did you know that if you go to Brushes -> Presets Manager, click on a brush, press Shift and then click on another brush, before or after the first one, it selects all the brushes between the first and second? :o *n00b* Lol I learn new things every day!

Anyway, today was the big day for the presentation! It went pretty well and the teacher said we deserved a 9/10 for the oral presentation but we'll most likely get a 10, also considering the written essay Things were pretty hectic before the class of Romanian because me and one of the girls from my group (Georgiana) decided yesterday to present the essay together (the essay was about Romans and Dacians, if you're wondering). Today we were busy deciding what each of us would say and I was really nervous about it, because we were the first group!
We began our presentation and said our parts, but I was stunned when G started saying some of the things I was supposed to say! I looked confused at my other group mates "what is she doing??" and I must've looked pretty funny XD I really don't know how she managed to learn all those things by heart, since she barely looked at the notes we had taken (we had different notes). It lasted longer than we had expected (around 30 minutes) -we were supposed to speak for only 10 @_@ But none of the other groups' projects were done, so it was OK. We had one of the classes all to ourselves XD
After we were done with the presentation, it was time for questions. Personally, I glared at everyone "Don't you dare ask something. I can find out where you live" XD There were some questions but we managed to answer them without looking like idiots. And I love arguing -even if I'm not right, I still want to prove I am XD Luckily, that was not the case.

Long paragraph! >_< Here are more avvies! I'm an avvie-whore XD

(Dissidia - all the icons)

And speaking about PS, these days I've been uber busy with some really big images the Geography teacher gave me to modify >,< A classmate (and friend) squealed that I'm talented in PS and the teacher took the opportunity DX Yesterday I had to wait for 1 hour for a girl to copy them to my memory stick because she kept talking with others and ignoring me -_- I even had to skip Chemistry to stay there and the friggin' laptop (the teacher's one) kept freezing all the time too! I really wanted to attend Chem - it's the optional Chem, not the regular one, and we have a really sweet teacher.

So, yesterday I had to multi-task between the presentation, the Geography project, the Physics test (which was today) and Nico, who stayed home that day and wanted me to scan the lessons for her DX Even I can't do all that and remain sane!
At least the Physics test was good. For the first time in my high school years, I didn't think "oh crap, I'm gonna fail this" at a Physics test! Yeah, it's that bad. It was reasonable and I solved all the requirements, even though their correctness is a part I don't want to know XD I'm happy being ignorant for the moment, even though I have reasons to believe I haven't messed it up as badly as I have other tests!

Holy peppercorn, this is long. OMG is peppercorn a word?! I made it up in my mind now o_O I'll check the dictionary later to find out what it means *feels smart* I won't be entering the Halloween contest because I'm too lazy and busy with school to work with a deadline DX *gets poked* OK, I'll end it now ^^" Thank you again for visiting and reading my long and weird posts! You're the best! Hope your weekend is relaxing
P.S. Now that the heaters are working, my cat likes to sleep on them :3 She's so cute <3

Short hiatus + explanation!

Well well well, I'm back XD If only for a little while... To cut a long story short, my monitor broke down and I took it to the store a week ago. Now I'm using my mom's computer at work to type this. Hopefully, it'll be fixed soon. It's not that easy, since I ordered it off the Internet and we had to take it to the store we got it from, and the people there sent it to the ones who made it! I don't know why so much hassle is needed, one guy could look at it and say if it's easy to fix or not -_-" Good thing it's still under warranty and we don't have to pay - it will be replaced if it's unrepairable.

In other news, my friend Mary got a kitty! I went to her house a few times these days and played with her, she's really cute! I wish I had a pic of her, but it's on my computer and I can't get it. Anyway, it was abandoned on a field and a girl rescued her, then she got adopted by Mary. She's been in her house for a few days but already acts like the master! Let me tell you, she's hyperactive and doesn't stay still! Except for the times when she falls asleep (which is for 10 minutes) ^^" Of course, Pisicot (that's how Mary named her; Piticot is a "name" for a very small person in the Romanian folklore, and "pisica" means "cat", so it's a play on words) likes to chew on slippers, curtains and ankles

Urgh, I just hate this computer because it's so slow! Not even mine worked this slowly, and I usually have Yahoo! Messenger, MSN, Photoshop, Winamp and Bitcomet running at the same time (and they take up a LOT of memory!) Oh, and no graphics for a while, I can't use the crack on PS here and I only have the trial version that expired a few months ago... So yeah, from the point of view of graphics, I'm...

More of these signs here.

I hope everyone's doing great, and I apologize if some things are delayed because of my absence (Shadows, sorry again!). I hope the monitor's fixed soon, but I'll keep commenting whenever I can See you soon! *hugs*
