blends... or collages?
posted by lianne on the 16th of August, 2010
Lol apologies guys; my mom dragged me off somewhere today... So yeah. I'll get on coding the domain layouts when I finally get my homework from the
indian/british RE teacher guy done. I'm trying to concentrate on studies now, so I don't end up getting crap grades again like last year.
So guess what? I SIT AT THE FRONT NOW! :p
I'm really thinking of installing cutenews or something now, as we're getting more visitors (according to our sitemeter- yaay!) now, so maybe
some of you would like to comment on stuff instead of typing random comments in the cbox :p Also, I don't really want to lose track of all our past
news updates and stuff... Yeah, I should shutup now.
Uhh so new blends are up- Martine actually only made two, so I also stole some blends from our old site, Sunburst. Uhh and btw those two so-called
"blends" are more like collages, but whatever.
I'd say more, but I'm too lazy to type any more. I better get to sleep. Byeee (;
and she's back!

Yup, Liz is back and is already starting on the domain layouts I've given her. They should be up sometime this week. That's the good news.
The bad news?
It's our first week of school. We're in grade 7 now. But this also means the content will be scarce for a while, but
just until we get sorted and stuff. So maybe in two weeks, max. This isn't usually the case with our school, but they switched the
curriculum a bit and now we have TWO schedules that alternate every 2 weeks AND double swimming and P.E! Yes we're moaning cause
we aren't very good at sports, despite the fact that both my parents were good at sports when they were young. Don't know if it's the same for Liz's
parents though.
Oh, but we've added the icons, icon bases and some new textures. I don't know whats happened to the blends or that brush pack I gave her to add,
but hopefully they'll be up soon. If you want to suggest anything for us to add, just drop us a cbox message! :)
2 more days...

no I won't stop calling you liz, its what everyone calls you in real life D:
anyway, it's 11pm and i shouldn't be adding news now.. but whatever. I am indeed multitasking;
texting my friend, discussing photography with another friend on facebook, trying not to get caught by my mom
and typing this news out. what fun. on the upside,
liz is coming back in 2 days! that means content :D as previously
mentioned, all soon-to-be-premades [domain layouts] can be viewed on my deviantart
here.
they actually turned out pretty good I think... whatever. I've also decided to do that Disney PNG pack, but not so sure
about the scans yet. However they will probably be done as well.
What else? A new layout!
That's right, Ambient Light will soon be getting a layout for version two of the site. Liz and I are trying to think of something
cool to theme it as, but if you have any suggestions on what you'd like to see feel free to post something in the cbox.
That's all for now, keep checking back for updates! :)
yay bulk uploads

OH MY GOD MARTINE YOU TOOK OUT HALF OF THE ICONS. I spent time putting those icons up you know ;-;
but whatever, I'm too lazy to put any more up. :p
Aannyyyywaaaayssss. Running around here in Davao is torture. There are mosquitoes everywhere, I swear. In a minute I could
suddenly like get bitten by an evil bloodsucker and get dengue and die.
Oh and 13 is not old ;-; Hmph.
32 textures are going up soon ;D I'm uploading them all to the server as I type. Once we get enough content up,
we'll be ready for our uber awesome grand opening :D Yaaaaaaaay
Martine, I should really teach you how to upload stuff onto the server :p
Speaking of scans, I forgot to take pics of the free newspapers we got at the Marco Polo hotel this morning
D: Boo hoo. There are a few more newspapers lying around the house anyways, so I guess I'll take pics of those.
And stop calling me Liz please D: kthxbai
i swear, one of these days...

I really do have a long list of things to do for this place. Number one if to wait for Liz to come back and the rest is
to do with content. I went to Hong Kong Disneyland, as some of you know, last month. So I was thinking of making some PNGs
with the stuff I bought there. Would you guys use that? If I made the pack, there would be Mickey robots and stitched Minnie
outlines and a some Mickey comic things from when Walt Disney was alive... sounds pretty cool, right? So I'll get round to doing that
sometime. However, school is coming up on the 16th so that'll occupy us probably until September... yeah. Oh and Liz's birthday is in
September :D she's old she's turning 13 :)
We really do need suggestions, guys. I'm mentally dead and had all my inspiration and imagination drained out of me by some evil death ray.
I was also thinking of making some textures. Also putting my mom's old magazines to use by adding a 'scans' page.
Hm. One of these days...
server stable.
posted by martine on the 5th of August, 2010
Okay first off, Liz and I are really sorry about the lack of updates. This was because of the server transfer we
were going through. Fortunately, the server is now stable and we can add stuff again. weeeeeeeeeeeee :D
So Liz is in Davao and Im here in Manila [I arrived from Cebu yesterday] again. But you know what sucks? I CAN'T ADD
ANYTHING. No seriously. So we have to wait until Liz gets back before we get content up. However, at the moment we have
a few domain layouts being coded and Ive got lots of new&&improved icons. If you didnt realize it, I removed lots of the
old ugly ones we had and replaced them with nicer ones. I'm going to keep on doing that until we have ALL lovely new icons
and no more ugly ones. Just so you can keep track of what we've got in store for you...
- 8 new&&improved icons [still making more; the numbers keep going...]
- 3 domain layouts [still need to be coded by Liz when she gets back - I'll make more, I promise]
- Tutorials! [yes, I do plan on writing some new ones]
- More brush sets [i have one unreleased set waiting as we speak]
Once again, we'd love to hear your suggestions! If you have a tutorial request, a certain brush pack you want or your
favorite celeb featured on a domain layout, TELL US. We're low on inspiration and help, so it would be appreciated :)
You can now preview some of our new domain layouts [that haven't been posted] on my deviantart
here!
We're back online, baby.

must be so peeved at us. Dx Sorry about that- Martine was in China, and we were experiencing
a server transfer. But we've transferred servers now, so it's all good! :D
As an apology gift to all of you guys, we made a content update!
- 11 new icons
- 1 new icon base
- 1 new brush pack
- 11 new textures
There are also new domain layouts that are being coded at this very moment, so please be
patient. ;) Love you guys <3

YOU WILL NEVER EVER EVER BELIEVE HOW EXTREMELY AND UTTERLY OVERJOYED I AM.
Dude, I'm serious. There was a black-out throughout the
whole of Luzon for more than
24
hours, and it was complete torture. Only the malls & hotels and stuff had generators Dx
I'M SO HAPPY CAUSE THE POWER JUST CAME BACK ON OMGOMGOGMGOMGOMG
Anyways, sorry I haven't been able to update you guys; my parents have been literally
dragging me
everywhere. Apologies.

AHAHAHAHAAHAHHA WE'RE OPEN YUSSS
Well, nobody's really seen our site yet though, haha. We have a
bit of content up, and
we're taking in affie applications (; Feel free to apply. We won't bite.
We're mostly full of

really want to do anything else :P And I was just coding the whole thing.
And trying to figure out how to host people.
But whatever. Anyways, We've got:
- 40 new icons
- 24 new icon bases
- 4 new brush packs
- 3 new domain layouts
- 7 new colour schemes
We'll add more soon; don't worry. ;D
