So what anime are you watching at the moment? For me it's Psycho-Pass. I'm loving it so much! It's a Sci-Fi detective thriller but It's quite deep, alongside the depth and action of Ghost in the Shell. And Shakespeare, lots of references to English literature! How about you?

I have wanted to make a GFX showcase on here for awhile and never gotten around to doing it. So here you will be able to find all of my graphics works, old and new. I will try to keep tis updated with mostly my newer projects. I'm also currently getting back into graphic making as my interest and motivation to do it comes and goes Programs: Photoshop CS4 Extended / Occasionally GIMP. Making graphics since 2009 / Self-taught. Open to collab'ing. I mostly make large arts / signatures / banners but can also make avatars/icons. Requests are open for signatures or avatars only. Part #1 (you are here) ~ Featuring latest creations Part #2 ~ Signature & Banner space Part #3 ~ Avatar & Icon space Part #4 ~ Large art space Here you can view the latest works I have most recently made. SasuSaku PNG siggy: Angel Beats signature for Pessi x Me Sasori banner for Pessi: Recent large art: I have put the best works I've done in regards to Signatures/Banners styles here under the spoiler. Since this will contain a lot of images I thought it best to put it underneath a spoiler. * I have probably done thousands of avatar/icons so I will try to just include my most recents. Most of these are requests from clans I am in or friends for either website avatars or Discord icons. I will add more of them as I find them since I have a ton of folders of these on my PC. 75x75 Avatar sizes beneath the spoiler: Icons 100 x 100 behind Spoiler: Large artworks included below in the spoiler:

Awww no no I'm not leaving ~ I hope you and I continue talking because you're hilarious I honestly was going to that day but it was going to take too long because I have something like 50k+ resources in the GFX file LOL So I just didn't ~ which I'm glad I didn't because I do like making GFX. Thank yaaaa <333 Also thanks everyone for the nice comments about my latest GFX. I made some icons this evening for some different people here and I hope you guys like them. No pressure to use any of these I just wanted to make some for my friends and you absolutely do NOT have to use them.

Anime Database Request This thread is where you can request anime to be added to the AF Anime Database! Prior to now, the general public was allowed to add anime, however this was rather messy when it comes to duplicate posts and general quality control! As such, after checking the database first, you may simply request to have an anime added via this thread, and an Anime Curator will get to it!

THE SPANKENING

Ya legit don't blame you ~ I get these urges to be outside when I'm indoors for awhile, but then I usually go outside and I'm like... ew....... people........... ~goes back in~ XD WOOOOO LEGOOO JASEY THE TRUCK MOVER VAN MANNNNNNNNN ~ Uhmmmmm let's see I did my lil seal work today, accidentally hit @Zeref in the face, I cooked dinner tonight I was feeling super ambitious so I took out the trash, did the laundry for both me and Pessi, then I made lemon & herb roasted cod & red roasted potatoes with onions After that I played RS with @Soramee_ I think for like.. 4 or 5ish hours / chatted in VC and just did nothing but a mini game ~ Gonna go sleepy sleep in a minute now.

I was assaulted in the car when I picked her up from the zoo work today. We need to form a victoms support group. VoSSG. Victoms of Serey Support Group If it helps anyone out there who is struggling as a VoS (victom of Serey), food will mollify the situation. If you offer her food she will become passive lmao.

I didn't do much after my volunteer work, just played some games and watched TV. I'm trying to figure some things out that have been really bothering and confusing me that I don't know what to do about and I kinda spent the evening thinking about those things but all I got was more confused.

Why do you hate me??? Today in Sofi's Runescape Adventures ~ I feel like I just went on a wild trip, like I got into @Colus weed or something LMFAO THIS WAS THE WEIRDEST QUEST BUT I WAS SO INTO IT WHATTTTT we committed election fraud, murdered someone, committed theft.. it was basically like living in America.. o_o LMAO THEN THEY WANTED TO OVERTHROW HUMANITY THEN WE RIGGED THE ELECTION And I felt like some weird Disney princess having a frog jumping election contest in the middle of the woods with a buncha frogs and capybara... Also same Sofi......... same............ lmao BUT I FOUND CAPYBARA AND THEY ARE SO CUTE WHATTTTTTTTTTT THERE WAS A BABY ONEEEEEEEEEE I don't know why I was so involved with this quest but this is officially my favorite quest LOL THAT was a ride ~

WHATTT WHATTTTTTTTT? WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT?????????????????????????????????????? Yassss farming is gardening and it's fun ;D at least IMO it's fun and fairly AFK when you start growing trees and stuffs. I love running around to my farming patches and checking my fruits/trees/mushyrooms/etc

Thanks you all ~ I tried a new style tonight this is mostly for @Jellal This ones transparent ~ white BG style ~ This ones just larger ~

These are for @Colu It was super hard to find any pictures of Falkor zoomed out or that were also HD so I basically had to invent an entire new icon style for these lol ~ I kinda like the style though and I think I'll explore doing stuff with textures/photo PNG's now. Anyways hope you like it, if you don't of course you don't have to use them!

That's why she's so cool ~ And I also finished my next OSRS GFX edit thingy XD @Jellal I also finished the sig for @Sakura Dragon ~ I wanted to explore this style more so I finally decided to try it again, while also managing to get all the pics she wanted in it + hearts and text ;D So I hope you like this one ^^ The only difference in the 2 is the bottom text I couldn't decide if it should be red or not ~

NO.. aNYWAYS you already have them what lol ~ Ywww, gonna send them in DM ~ I don't know what I was doing this isn't GFX just a photo edit for @Jellal and me LOL Bigger version and smaller version ~ For anyone not familiar with OSRS, the name text isn't this bad on purpose, that's the OSRS ingame font lol

I haven't felt like doing much today ~ I watched some movies and tv mostly hanging out on the couch. I did get on RS and do a slayer task but I just wasn't feeling it. Talking to my dad and wished him Happy Father's Day and that's really been about it. Talked to a few friends on Discord.

The heck is this? o_O LMAO

I'm not really much of a selfie person they happen rarely but here's a newer one ~

LMFAO YES and wish they always get stuck at red lights when they are in a rush and their clothes are always wrinkly and that everytime they wash their car it rains I made these for @froggy ~you don't have to use them I was just a bit bored and making PFPs I made these for myself ~ I also started work on a sig for myself, @Sarada @froggy @Ayame and @giuls today. I'm just working on getting the resources and stuffs together because I want it to be a nice friendship siggy.

This is my current desktop. It's also animated but you ofc can't see that with just an image XD

I was just wondering if anyone still plays Runescape or has ever played it. I know it's an older game and was probably the most popular back in 2002-2007, but they have Old School Runescape that came out in I think 2014? Which I still play because it's, for the most part, how it was in the 2000's. I still enjoy it because it's a game that's pretty simple to understand and I like the repetitive things like fishing, woodcutting, and crafting, that I can do while listening to music, watching tv, or just chatting with friends. It also brings back a lot of nostalgia from my childhood - teen years when I played it and met some of my best friends online there.

THIS IS BLACKMAIL OR OSMETHING IDK HELP IM BEING BLACKMAILED this is definitely blackmail

The weirdest GZ on the next 80 @Sakura

Thankssss guys ^ I also made this today. I dunno what I was doing ~ sometimes I just like to mess around with splatter brushes and that's all this thing consists of.

I got to see my sister @Sarada today~! It was just briefly, we met at a restuarant while her and her friend were passing through town but it was fun ;D It was kinda a mood booster because I definitely miss her a lot. We went to a restuarant called Cracker Barrel which is pretty well known for having a HUGE gift shop that sells basically everything you could ever imagine lol ~ so I ended up buying this lil bat guy. Me and my sister got matching ones which is kinda our thing when we go places, we always like to get matching souvenirs. He had this adorbable face though I couldn't just leave there There was also some cute dragon stuffed animals that I took pics of to send to @Animedragon over on Discord lol

I don't think I posted these before.. but the SAO acrylics were from my dad, the throw pillowcases were a gift from Pessi and the posters were from my dad. There's 6 acrylic stands, 2 posters (which have now been framed but I need to decorate them), and 2 throw pillowcases. And I meant to post these before but totally forgot. I said I would post the Vocaloids shelf @Colu @Soramee_ so here's the Vocaloid shelf. I recently added some more stuff to it and the last pic is the newest stands I have which are actually on my desk and were a gift from my sis. There isn't a ton of stuff but it's slowly been expanding. So yaaa that's my latest updates to all my anime collections ;D

Mid 90's to early 2000's are usually the ones I listen to the most.

This right here. This guy knows what's good. I love these things. Somehow I always forget they exist until I happen across them by accidental at random times at a shop. Also I'm partial to filled cupcakes or Scottish shortbread cookies.

Tbows you say???? I'll throw a sham wedding for a tbow lessgoooo lmfaoooo bruhhhhhhhhHHHH this ditter thing keeps getting weirder and so many layers keep getting revealed >_> Godddd like RoT is so scummy lol Got my first Skotizooooo killlllllll woooooooo thanks to @Jellal

IF ANYONE NEEDS A THERAPIST NOW IT'S ME I'M THE ONE THAT HAD TO GO THROUGH THIS TRAUMA WITH NAOMI If they don't do something about it with him saying ON CAMERA what he did that's just messed up.

Don't eff with my clan lmao I got 87 range and 78 slayer wooooooooooooo I gotta finish maxing this stupid range it's the only combat stat I don't have at 99 @.@ New collection loggy too ~

Confirmed it was RoT. Yes, I'm ranked 2 in the game. I've been friends with her for awhile and clan co-leaders. Signed the petition to change Scurries to Ditter

I've been in Chicago for what feels like forever even though it's only been a few weeks. Sunday I got back home to Kentucky. Luckily the plane ride isn't so long and I didn't feel tired when I got home so @Zeref and I decided to take a mini road trip out towards the countryside of Meade County, KY. There's a steakhouse out there we wanted to meet some of my aunts and cousins at for Sunday dinner. The drives about 45 minutes to an hour so a pretty nice long drive out there with a lot of pretty scenery along the way. I took a buncha pictures of everything. The sky was so beautifully blue! I also got some really pretty shots of the Ohio River when we went over it on the bridge. I thought I'd share those from that day here since it's been awhile since I posted a blog entry. First I want to put my favorite ones here ~ the rest will be behind the spoilers The first ones are when we were crossing over the Ohio River and the rest are all pictures from the countryside scenery as we were driving out. Everything has gotten so green now that Spring is here and the sky was perfect that day. I'll put the rest under spoilers here. These are pictures from my Great Aunt's farm such as views from her property and the old barn that has been there for 60 something years. The rest under this spoiler are just pictures of the Kentucky countryside. There's also a few more of the Ohio River in these. That's all for now but I hope you enjoy looking at the pictures ^^

I won't be back to AF for a little while again so I wanted to post a blog entry and some of the pictures I've taken this past week before I leave. These are all from my road trip back to Chicago with @Eris and @Sarada. We really had a fun time. We got a bit turned around and ended up in Missouri instead of Illinois the first night.. yeah yeah my bad LOL By the time we realized we had gone the wrong way we just decided meh, whatev's, let's go see St. Louis, so, we did! What would a road trip be anyways without some adventure? I've really enjoyed being back home. The reasons why I'm here are for mental health reasons so it's a bit personal and not exactly the best situation to be home for. Despite how I'm feeling I've felt more at peace since being home. Seeing the places I used to go to, meeting up with friends, seeing my family, staying in my dad's house. It's made me feel relaxed, safe, not stressed out, and just peaceful which is better than I've been in what feels like a really long time. Everything has just been kind of building for months and then kind of came crashing down at once. I decided to try a black and white photo which is not something I usually do. I tried the first one with an angle of a street I liked and the second one is downtown Chicago. I really like the way the black and white looks on the first set it kinda gives it a really old look. Not sure about the second one I think I like the way the colored one looks more. The ones below this spoiler are from the road during our trip here. The sunset that day was so pretty coming through the clouds that I had to take some pictures of it! Another one of my favorite things to take pictures of is the city lights at night. It was a bit cloudy as usual in Chicago this time of year, but I kinda think it just adds to the atmosphere. Or maybe I'm weird but I've always liked foggy and cloudy Chicago when I can look up at the huge skyscrapers and can't see the tops because they are in the clouds ~ Most of these are in and around the Chicago Tribune building which is right at the main center of the Magnificent Mile and the other is from out on Navy Pier. Below is just a few pictures of when we first headed out to walk around. The last picture is at The Field Museum. The Field Museum might look pretty familiar because it's been in a lot of movies such as Night At The Museum which is actually a movie I really like : D I guess that's all for now. I really wanna say thank you to all my friends though on AF who have been there for me lately. You guys mean the world to me

I reallyyyy really hope to see Pessi's Paint Gallery in the future lmfao ~ I made some icons for Cam @Eris, mostly for Discord. I'm going to make him some for here too but I haven't yet so I'll see what happens tomorrow. The only difference in the duplicate one's are I usually make him ones that say both Deejay and Cam on them since he uses the Deej ones on RS Discs I guess ~ No other diff. though. The first ones such as the Alois ones are actually a new style I'm working on and I like this style ^^ These are also larger because yeah.. they are for Discord.

First update in awhile. I haven't had any real motivation or interest lately. Credits for the render and PSD @Sakura She let me look at the PSD coloring she did to hers, and shared this render. I came up with this as a result.

Let's be real.. I ain't doing that anytime soon lolll I mean I know I for sure could but it's gonna take concentration and actually not being AFK from the game so maybe sometime soon but not this weekend

Hope you guys like it, I havent drawn digital in MONTHS...so i'm more than rusty.

So after reading @Illusion of Terra's post "Anime Forums Watching Anime Movies" It made me think it might be fun to have an Anime Forums streaming night. I often use a website called "Rabb.it" which allows someone to stream a show or movie and their friends to join and watch together. It also provides a chat box next to the movie so you can chat with your friends while watching the movie. I thought if enough people were interested it might be fun to do this one night and I'd be happy to host a movie night, or stream a show, if enough people were interested in joining and watching something together. Could probably stream for several hours with several different things to allow for people to join in at a convenient time. If you'd be interested let me know here and we can hopefully get together a movie night with enough popcorn to go around for our forums to have a little online get together ^^!

Hi everyone, We are continuing to have ongoing SPAM and new registrations from those trying to advertise. We have had manual approval put in place for new members but I am currently not able to sift through the queue in a timely manner because I am currently undergoing some challenging life circumstances. In the small amount of free time I have in ensuring the upkeep of AF, I am spending the remainder on moderating new registrations/posts instead of being able to participate in the anime discussions. In future I do intend to recruit moderation staff but I need to write guidelines and processes to accommodate this platform which I still have not been able to do yet at this time. In the meantime I am suspending new member registrations until my life circumstances improve. Apologies for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding.

What are the things that cause you to raise your estimation of someone? I don't mean the things that impress you. Nearly anyone can be impressed by anything. I'm talking about the things that IMPRESS you. Capslock, underline, italics, bold impress. Things that force you to think of someone in a better light. For me - Acts of tremendous kindness, for the fuck of it. It's way too easy to just go on, every single day, living the same way without acknowledging others. I think it's important for people to give forward. Getting the shit kicked out of you and getting back up. Toughness is a virtue to me. There aren't many that I respect more. Someone that can fall apart and put themselves back together, emotionally or physically, I have a lot of respect for the simple ability that some people have to keep standing back up. Creativity. It can be writing, it can be talking, it can be reviewing, it can be anything. I just respect people that can be creative in any way form or fashion. What about you?
