Nominated At Blogger’s Choice Awards

May 16, 2009 by 5 Comments

I found out that Blondish.net had been nominated at the Blogger’s Choice Awards in several categories:

- Best Geek Blog
- Best Blog About Stuff
- Best Blog Design
- Best Blog of All Time

I saw that my friend Lydia nominated my site. Thank you, Lydia! I believe in order to vote, you have to sign up.

I appreciate if you might be able to vote for me there. I actually have not done any blog award sites or any web competitions in some time, so I would really appreciate it. If you comment here and say you did vote there, I will make you a special graphic gift showing my appreciation that you can snag and take back to your own site.

Website Review for Velociteen

May 7, 2009 by 2 Comments

I have completed the website review of Velociteen. The site has a great focus, but the design really needs some work.

If you have a website that you want reviewed, you can request to have your site reviewed by me.

Thank Goodness!

After all of this mess, the telephone company finally put the pole for the telephone line up and is working on their part to restore the line. However, too bad for them…. I am getting cable internet. I decided to cancel my home phone because even dial-up or dsl would equal out to the cost of cable internet or even more.

I just cannot believe the lack of speed in how things like when that drunk guy hit the telephone pole and it broke. You would think they look after these things better.

So, after Thursday, I will be able to get on a bit more. I am still helping out with my folks.

On Thursday I have a website review that I will post since I completed it. I had to make a lot of notes and then put it together offline.

April 13, 2009 by 3 Comments

I am really happy to say that there are a few things that are soon to added to this site. In fact, here is a list:

  • 10+ emoticons
  • 10 more desktop wallpapers (including fanart)
  • sanrio pixel fanart available for download and use
  • anime fanart section
  • 10 vectors in PNG format will be available for download and use
  • more fanfics that I have written are to be posted
  • illustrations to my novel, Shinju no Miko (which is changing to The Pearl Priestess)
  • A few more tutorials

Some of this is already finished, but I have been keeping an agenda on what I want to put up. By the end of the week, I will be putting up banner ad spots, which will be $5 a month for now. Later on the price may change depending on site stats and demand. I am sorry for the delay on that as I know through email that you have been wondering when I would do this.

5 New Desktop Wallpapers For Download

April 9, 2009 by 8 Comments

Yes, that is right… five more desktop wallpapers available for download.

Candy Tube Clouds Speedy Bug Spring Day Winged Hearts

All wallpapers come in JPEG format and 3 different resolutions: 800×600, 1024×768, and 1280×1024. The previous wallpapers were greatly welcomed. I even got tips in my paypal from them so I must have done something right.

Anyway… feel free to use them. If you want to use the images for layouts, you can. I even can provide the PNG format of each of them for clarity, but you will have to use the contact form to request the one you need.

59 RSS Icons for Download

March 18, 2009 by 10 Comments

As internet users are finding rss feeds very convenient to catch the latest news of their favorite sites, I thought that making some creative RSS icons would be great to add to the site. Here are but a few examples:

rss icon rss icon rss icon rss icon

There are 59 total rss icons available. Please, if you do use any, please remember to not direct link the images and to save them to your own computer before using.

Of course, If you have any ideas for more, feel free to leave a comment on this blog post and I will see if I can get more done soon. Since I am blogging from the library (phone is down due to someone running into the poll and taking down the line), I have had plenty of time offline to get a few fun things finished.

30 New Icons for Download!

March 14, 2009 by 7 Comments

It seems I am always falling behind on some updates, but I did not forget the requests to try to make more avatar icons. Previous to March 2008, I had over 100, but due to the fact that some of them used celebrity images, I had to take them down. That left me with 35 that I could use.

I took the time to make 30 new icons for use. They can be used as avatars in forums or any other place. No real credit it needed, but if someone asks, be sure to link them here. All of the avatars are in GIF format. If you need it in PNG to retain the richness of the image, drop an email and I will send a copy in that format. I will probably put each in a zip file that will include a GIF, JPEG, and PNG formats. Of course, if you use them, save it to your computer. Do not direct link.

The new total is now 65 icons! I do take requests too, so feel free to email me if you have an idea for one.

Here are just some examples:
