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: exploring.the.infinity@gmail.com.
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.

My very own personal rules:

• No stealing my graphics! If you need something I used, just PM me and I'll tell you where I got it from.
• No guest-book one-liners, "I love your site, I'm addin ya!" or "Visit my site!" stuff! I'll ignore these posts (and the posters). Be creative.
• Me your friend = you comment on my stuff (posts and artwork). 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.
• Moderation: I handle gallery items mainly (wallpapers, to be specific), so if you've spotted some misplaced gallery items leave me a comment or a PM and I'll move them ^_^

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.

Learn of my awesomeness~

Boredom, not feeling well, icon bases and school

Mood: [cute little ghost smiley from Kao-Ani]
Listening to: Elitsa Todorova & Stoyan Yankulov - Water (<3 this song, Eurovision usually has good songs )

I know, I know, I've been basically dead for more than 2 weeks. Truth be told, I've been very bored to post; no fancy excuses, just that. Oh, and there's school as well, since the semestrial test papers are coming up and there's a lot of stress. One of them is next week and I haven't studied too much for it; the teacher isn't interested in doing exercises either XP

Urgh, I haven't been feeling well at all for the past few days: headaches, nausea, switching from cold to hot, all the signs of a nasty cold ;_; I don't want to get a shot, though, I've heard you can get another cold as a nasty side-effect, and I don't need that. Plus, standing in line early in the morning and hearing small kids scream like their limbs are being torn off is not exactly fun -_- Why do kids overreact? It stings for a few seconds and then they forget about it. Jeez.

I haven't been doing much in PS lately, I'm bored of that too, if you can imagine it! Really, I was crazy about wallpapers, then vectors, avatars, icon bases and stamps. Now, I don't care about them that much >_< I need a break from it all... *sighs* Though I recently noticed I make a Princess Tutu wallpaper every December, which means I should start working on one.
And why do people keep subscribing to me on YouTube? Can't they see I haven't posted a video there for more than 2 years? Had to get it out of my system XD
Oh, and I might also post a list of complaints over at the Creative Paradox, just to keep it going. No, it's not dead yet. Take your flowers back home XD I know, I have a twisted sense of humor.

I was talking to a classmate a few days ago, about Harry Potter and Twilight (she's an HP fan and hasn't seen Twilight). She told me HP 6 was supposed to be launched this December but they postponed it for July 2009 o_O I can understand why they did that, I doubt they'd have success if they tried to take on Twilight, in spite of the fact that they share a fair amount of fans >_> I'm not a fan of the HP films, I prefer the books. I still remember when I watched HP 5 with Nico, I explained half of it to her because she didn't understand what was going on (and we were both seeing it for the first time -CAM quality a.k.a. filmed with a camera a.k.a. for desperate geeks *coughlikemewithsaw4cough*).
Moral of the story: never, ever download CAM quality films. Unless you're a cheapskate geek like me.

Moar pics, because people get bored of too much writing XD This time it's bases, because I was too lazy to make avatars.

I wanted to complain more, but I see this is long enough as it is ^_^" Thank you for reading the post (or for looking at the pretty pics, whichever of these you did XD), have a great weekend! *hugs*

Thank you, my friends! ^_^

Yups, thank you a lot for being there for me and encouraging me. In the end, I talked to Nico and sorted things out, and she wasn't upset about me not getting along too well with Sabina. This goes to show it might also e my fault, I should have trusted her more... Well, everyone had a lesson to learn from this ^^

This is going to be yet another update concentrated mostly on art, since there isn't anything new in my personal life ._. Except being bored. In the end, no one went to see Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian, but I hope we will *can't wait to drool over Prince Caspian see the interesting film* I know what happens anyway, I've read the book a lot of times XD

Anyway, here are some avatars I made in my spare time, I'm so happy that we can finally post more than one image per post! Thank you for clearing that for me, Saku ^^"

Uh, this is kinda long already so I'll end it here. Oh, and I made a new e-card too! XD Here it is: Difficult Choice. That's it, I'm going now XD Might change my blog theme soon... *hugs* Thank you very much for visiting! Have a great day! ^^

Just say it in broken English...

OK, I promised on my last post that I would post some of my anime OP/ED/songs, and the time has come! I don't have a lot, and most of these are from anime I haven't seen, but I like most of them and I hope you will, too!

The reason I'm not posting a lot about myself is that nothing much happens. i watch movies, go out with friends and work in PS ._. Not a very exciting life. Last stuff I watched were: Shutter (2004), The Descent and an episode of Lost. This is probably going to sound strange, but I laughed all the time throughout Shutter. It's your typical Asian horror flick, where a guy is haunted by the ghost of the girl. You've seen it all if you've seen The Grudge or The Ring. I've honestly had enough of ghost girls and such, I won't be watching an Asian horror film for a looong time ._.

Alas, a complaint paragraph had to exist, right? Sometimes I feel that some of the works on Minitokyo don't really deserve the...hype they get. Like some vectors getting into the Elite Gallery... I won't name anyone, but let's say that if I made one of the vectors that is currently in the EG, I bet it wouldn't get there. I work hard on my vectors and sometimes it's just unfair to see them ignored... I don't have connections around that place, like others do, so I try to rely only on my skills. It's just that most of the time people prefer to view the works of popular people.

Anyway, let's end this post on a cheerful note :) I made another vector! This time it's a screenshot and it didn't take too long, but it was in my Projects folder and I'm glad I finished it! I have a lot of screenshots on the line and a lot of pics from Let's Make Forbidden Love, this manga I've started reading yesterday :3

I'm currently lacking subjects to discuss in my Creative Paradox, so I'd appreciate it if you can give me tips ^^ I was thinking of writing reviews of anime series I've seen and posting them there, how does that sound?
And one more question before I go: if you could/wanted to write a book/story, what would you write about?
My answer: tee hee, it'd probably be an adventure novel ^^ I've tried to write it (wrote 3 chapters), but I'm not too good at illustrating emotions via writing. Maybe I'll be a film director! *daydreams*
Well, that's it. Stay tuned for more from me! (lol) Thank you, everyone who comes by and leaves a comment, it means a lot to me!
