Welcome to Musical Days!

Switched to Fanupdate

Lately, I’ve been thinking about this site and what I want it to offer. Most of my site is pretty much, well offering quite a bit of the same content (though I didn’t know signatures were so popular). Things such as Transparent PNG’s, or renders if you will. Most anime graphic sites out there have them, and there are archives of these renders, for example kuusou. Looking at my site, I’ve never been one to enjoy making these renders, and now, I’m contemplating sacking them, along with wallpapers. Wallpapers is rather self expanatory. I never enjoyed making them, as I have always preferred small graphics. As of the moment however, I’ll leave them up, out of laziness or sentiment, I do not know.~ I do however, as my coding skils build, plan on making more premades, if for the sake of practice.

As you can see, cutenews is gone. It’s been replaced by fanupdate (because wordpress seems a lot more complicated) in compliance to the bubble.nu rules. (Edlyn’s hosted by them), and I’ve had quite the troubles with spam, and I didn’t know any hacks. It also didn’t really feel like a good blogging system, like it wasn’t like a blogger blog, or a wordpress, where you’re like “Oh, I can actually write about myself here”, it seemed more like an updates only type of system. While this isn’t a fancy fancy system, fanupdate seems easier to work with than cutenews, but then, I could be speaking too soon.

I’ve been reading a lot recently, finished the Harry Potter series (finally), finished reading The DaVinci Code and generally just reading online articles. Reading has always been a strong hobby of mine, as I was never athletic, nor artsy. It’s hard for me to find books I enjoy though, since I’m picky about the story. One book that has really stood out to me is The Hunger Games. The idea of these cruel games where children are forced to kill each other, first of all is something that can be worked with. It is rather, original I’ll say. Second, Suzanne Collins’ writing shows that she has put thought into her book. The complications that happen, how she manages not to make the main character Katniss annoyingly useless, but imperfect at the same time. I don’t want to spoil it for anyone, but it is a really good read. I highly reccomend it!

Because of my revived love for reading, I haven’t exactly been working on that many graphics. But, you should see something from me at least once this month, not promising anything more than that, since July, I am booked.

Anywho, before I post this, please welcome one new link exchange. Alblenox from Hiwatari! He has some pretty awesome graphics, and his layout is, well I wouldn’t say cute, but it’s elegant : D~
