A Couple New Desktop Wallpapers

Posted by Nile | Posted in News | Posted on 25-02-2009 | 4

I added 2 more Computer Desktop Wallpapers to Blondish.net. Both are simple, but I think they are cute. They are offered for download in 3 resolution sizes (800×600, 1024x768x and 1280×1024), and are free to use. If you cut them up and use for graphics, please remember to give credit back.

Ice Cream Cone Wallpaper Preview One wallpaper is called ‘Ice Cream Cone’, and the other is ‘Paper And Markers’. So far Blondish.net offers 5 wallpapers, but since the beginning of February 2009, I have added the majority of them.

If you have any ideas for wallpapers, I can do requests, even fanart for celebrities, but only if they are using my vector method. I will not use the photos and do blends. I know most are girly, but most of the people who do visit Blondish.net are between 14 to 45. If you are a guy visiting, do comment here and make a request. I would like to face the challenge of making other types of graphics too. Again, just in case you missed it, you can view and download these wallpapers in the Wallpaper section.

Paper And Markers Wallpaper Preview As for more site news, there are a few WordPress Tutorials in the articles section of Blondish.net for your perusal.

The vectors tutorials I mentioned on the way will be ready this week. As usual, if you would like me to try to take a stab at creating a tutorial, I would be happy to hear about it.

Also, I may soon be a guest blogger over at WPThoughts. I encourage you to check it out as I think it is a promising site. I answer more han a dozen questions about WordPress in Twitter on a daily basis. Might as well write more about it, right?

As for Blogrity.com, I am thinking of making it a Blog directory. However, it will be using WordPress and submissions will be hand done. I would like to make a page on each site and then the page have stats like Google PR, Alexa Rank, and Technorati rank, Ability to leave a comment about the site and possibly a site rank and maybe editor rating. That is just the beginning of my ideas for it. I am thinking that perhaps the first 500 links would be free and the rest would be $5 submission fee. I just renewed it for its 2nd year and until now, I did not know what I wanted to do. What do you think?

Preparing To Post More Tutorials

Posted by Nile | Posted in News | Posted on 22-02-2009 | 0

I have had tutorials in the past, usually basic coding, but never on my graphics. I seem to give a lot of graphics, which I have been told time and time again. That is quite okay with me. I have well over 800 different graphics available on this site for download and I am damn proud of each and every one no matter if I recently created them, or created them over five years ago when I first started out. For anyone new to Blondish, or has not visited my site since its early GeoCrappy days, I have offered layouts, background patterns, blinkies (as siggies – signatures), emoticons (smilies) and much more. However, I always get “How did you do that?”

Well, I started with the Flower Vexel. Since I am designing the theme for Rouged, I will be vectoring another picture of myself. However, I have also been writing a tutorial on how to do certain parts like skin, eyes, and hair. Of course, this is all with my style of vectoring.

I hope in the next couple days when revealing each tutorial, that they will be helpful and you use your imagination when creating the vector. Art is always something that each person perceives differently. With vectors, some like smooth looking vectors, while people like myself like some difference between the layers. :) Of course, with the tutorials I am also going to be introducing a PNGs section of graphics that I made by vectoring.

Two New Computer Wallpapers

Lily Wallpaper Preview I have not done much about updating the Wallpapers section, so I finally got in gear an created a two different ones. They are called Mustang and Lily. Both of the vectors were also suggestions from a few of you readers to make as some liked my other theme for the site and others liked the lily from the vector tutorial I recently revealed. These wallpapers come in three resolution sizes: 800×600, 1024×768, and 1280×1024. You can download them from the Wallpapers section, and yes, THEY ARE FREE.

Mustang Wallpaper Preview

I will have more wallpapers in the near future, but I also have a long list of things to put on the site. I will even take requests but I will only do celebrity wallpapers using my vectoring. I do not put celebrity photos up anymore here since it seems to be a big no-no because of copyright issues. If you noticed, I also am trying to keep track of how many downloads. It has been a great way to see what you all find useful from my site. As a side update and example: PHPads has been downloaded over 714 times in the past month and PHPurl has been downloaded over 145 times in the past 2 weeks.

:arrow: Please remember that The Listing is open and replaced 2 different webdirectories. In less than a week, over 50 sites have joined. Also, I hope to see some of you all at Blogtopsite, especially those who were there in the past.

Big shout out to Amanda of Autism and The World Around Me for plugging The Listing. Any help is always appreciated. The site has some very informative links on autism and is in general, a personal blog. Anyone who can relate or knows someone with autism should find this site enjoyable and intriguing. Also, if you are curious to learn more, she can help you find out more information. She has two boys in which both are in school and doing well. Amanda seems friendly so I recommend you to click over sometime to visit.

Free webhosting?

I have seen some sites and when I saw this at Olivia’s personal blog site, I had to check out her free webhosting at So-Pink.org. She is offering domain and subdomain. She has requirements like good web skills, be over the age of 13, have good communication with her, and above all, fill out the form. I think it is a good deal and… Olivia, this is a free blog…so no need to pay me for blogging for your free service.
