Banner Update! (Holiday Makeover)
Finally a new post to say barely nothing! Well, as many of my friends have been noticing, I have really been in the Holiday spirit as of late. December has only begun, but I already feel the cheer and I am excited to sit down and watch all the Christmas movies and specials as I bake and decorate my house. Of course I need to first survive my winter exams, which is a completely different story, but besides that, I am as cheery as I’m going to get! What I am trying to get at is that a blog holiday “makeover” is necessary, which is why I added new features and banners!
So firstly, you may notice the snow “falling” from the imaginary sky on this blog, which many find to be annoying, but I believe that you all secretly enjoy the fun reminder of snow. I myself am not much of a “winter” person, but I am actually excited to see the snow cover my city outside even as I think about how cold it will get. Anyway, if you find the snow too annoying, if you wait about 500 seconds it will stop 
I also finally changed my little picture by the side, which used to be of Mei and Totoro to Yuno. I found the picture off of photobucket, it is just so cute! Well not much to say about it besides the fact that I hope you like the change!
Now onto the banners!
This was actually a banner that I have always wanted to use. Back in the time of my old wordpress blog I even wanted to use this image, but it never exactly worked out. Its from High School Debut and its just an amusing image. My placement for “Anime Princess” is really badly done, but it was the only way I could think of placing it and it was the price of getting to use this awesome image for a banner!
Seeing as I just started watching Wolf’s Rain I felt it would be appropriate making a banner out of it seeing as I had this image on my computer for some time. I’ve only seen the first disc of the series so far (I will rent the rest soon) and I really think it was amazing. I particularly Love the soundtrack!!
CardCaptor Sakura!! This image is just so cute! Kero is my favourite part about the image, but Syaoran makes a close second in terms of awesomeness. With that said, those reasons alone made this banner-worthy.
This banner is dedicated to all those that really don’t like winter. Ritsuka just looks so upset about being in the cold! My only problem with what I did with this banner, is the lack of a proper sentence, but the improper addition of periods were only added for aesthetic purposes.
What I was really going for with this banner was simplicity. At first I wanted to add something more, but after staring at it for a long while I decided that it didn’t need anything else added to it, which is how it turned out the way it is.
A very vibrant banner! I added a bit of motion blur to my font, just to make it blend in more. I am kind of worried that it may annoy people’s eyes a bit, but I hope you all just think it is beautiful instead! haha…
Well, I did not want to say a whole lot in this post, so I hope you like the few changes around this blog! I know I have been barely updating and I do feel bad about it, but I have some reasons behind that. I have some plans in mind about some things I want to post about and I also have a lot of movies to watch and hopefully blog about. So sit tight and keep on visiting because I will start making some good new posts soon.
The snow falling is cute. Though it reminds me of how the place I live in never snows. *sigh I like the banners. Especially the one of Ritsuka(though I’ve never read or watched Loveless before).
Rin´s last blog ..Barajou no Kiss Chapter 11
Wonderful banners! The snow falling is uh… very reminiscent of Xanga.
@Rin: Well if it helps, I live in a place where there is too much snow and I barely ever get a snow day even if there is mountains of it because we’re just used to the cold freezing weather x) Thanks, at one point I was obsessed with Loveless, but that sort of died out when I realized it just wasn’t all that great.
@Misu: Thank you! Xanga?
My favorite would be Wolf’s Rain. Looking at the wolf lying on the snow really brings about a chilly winter feeling.
And good luck on your winter exams! Kam Bah Teh!
So.. Have you been a good girl this year?
blur´s last blog ..CANAAN. Guin Saga and Kanon’s Road. YoSShhiIIIAAA!
@blur: Long time no talk x) Thank You on all mentions, blarg to exams…haha, have I been good? lol, well I don’t think I can really give a good answer to that, hopefully the santa to my money can
Yup. Been a while. Lol. Work’s been hectic and my blogging’s been a little on and off. -.-”
By the way, is banner5 from an anime?
And I just realized that the first banner on top is from Clannad.
Clannad Banzai! \o/
Lol…
blur´s last blog ..Wedding Photo, not mine!. Komoriuta to Canne. GA: Geijutsuka Art Design Class.
woohoo! Back from vacation, and catching up on my favorite blogs!
I really love the holiday banners! Especially banner5. So cute!
The snow falling is awesome! Wordpress seems to do that every year, so it’s cool to see it outside of wordpress!
radiant´s last blog ..100th Post! (and 108,600 hits)
@blur: My blog hasn’t been to active myself….Banner 5 is from Ichigo Mashimaro, a cute slice of life comedy. The Clannad love seems to have died down a bit, but I still like showcasing images especially with Fuko as the main focus x)
@radiant: I hope you enjoyed your vacation! I’ve been studying (woohoo….)
Thank you, that’s my favourite banner too!
Ya I always enjoyed the snow application on wordpress that I had to bring back the tradition!
Lol. Fuko fan as usual. Xp
