Still here... more than I used to be for the past while, at least.

May submit previews of my new LJ layouts here.  Not sure yet, but probably will.

Yeah, that's right -- I've been teaching myself CSS.  I'm stupidly happy with the results so far, too.  ♥  Did my own journal's layout.  Did the Digital Devil Saga's Terminals layouts.  Still giddy over how well that turned out.  Looking to do a general SMT one next, then maybe redo my P4 pause-menu GUI layout, and a Velvet Room one.  And perhaps a surprise layout or two for various friends.  

Still eyeing several pictures, to work on them some more, including that one I just posted.  (thanks again, ~azraelengel!)



In other news:

Told MSN's official PC client to piss off.  Love Adium -- so I found Pidgin.  Loving Pidgin.  It's like Adium for Windows, almost.  Managed to pretty it up; will be posting the OS X-like gems status theme I did for it off of one of Adium's sets, once I finish with the last few icons for it (connect, disconnect, sign on/off, etc.)  Might also post the very Windows Classic-ish GTK theme I tweaked.  (Bluecurve, somewhat edited.)  Also tried tweaking that Gems theme for Adium, but we'll see how that turns out.

Not changing my mind about not getting a dA Prints account.  Currently working on things to put up on CafePress.  There will at least be some buttons and pins available to help with cosplays, shortly.  And probably a shirt or two.  (Kanji, how I love thee!)  

Also, have been house-sitting/kitty-sitting, so I've been bouncing between my desktop PC and beautiful lil Mac lappy.  Which makes some tasks far easier than others, but it mostly means that I end up with half the files I need, for various projects, on my USB stick, and half of them left at home due to absent-mindedness, and then I kick myself and end up not working on it, and find something else to do instead.  Like baking.  I've found that I actually like cooking, as long as it's food I want to eat.  Go figure.  So, if various projects of mine are delayed, don't be too terribly surprised.

requests: Not unless we're good friends, or the idea grabs my muses with a fervor. The unholier the fervor, the more likely.

comissions: Some people have talked me into it already. With the understanding that I've been very busy, it's not entirely impossible.

gift art/stuff: Rare-ish, but it's happened before. I don't always usually tell people before I gift them, though; sometimes it feels nice to spring surprise presents on people.
