She must be living temporarily with you to help you with your boy, right?

pls excuse me randomly coming in here but i HAD to comment on how insanely gorgeous your layout is!! i had seen it on deviantart and was very blessed seeing it there and again seeing it here 🙏 i could stare at it all day

to be called your inspo, that makes me so happy ><!! and the compliment on my choso layout, i had to do a double take to make sure i read that correctly hahaha youve been a huge inspiration for me so really, i was like omg (/////)

REALLY GOOD CHOICE PICKING YUTA AS YOUR SUBJECT HES SO PRECIOUS and the colors are *CHEFS KISS*
are you currently reading the manga?? :D or have seen the second season where he made a cameo 👀

Same waifu, my mum had me very late. But I guess in her case, she could never escape the charm of pretty boys even as she aged.
Has your mum come to understand that a lot of things aren't your fault now, and you can harmonise with each other?

Unfortunately not, Photoshop is too expensive for me >_< I'm too stupid to go the other route of downloading... yeah.

Aww, it's okay, when he's old like us he will come back and miss his besties. Hmph.
Oh right!! Glad to hear that update! It is wholesome to meet up for occasions!

Haaaah. I spent vday+bday and everyday at home alone. But I am beyond happy that my first and last interactions of the day are always with my doggo.

Right, I see! DA is the artist platform!
OMG is photobucket still alive? If I ever dug there, there'd be so many pics, screenshots, chats, and random edits we made for each other there. Although, I don't think I'd ever be able to remember my login now. XD

Hope your week goes well waifu ♥

Have you finally settled in your new house? Did you introduce colours to it or are you sticking to the neutral palette you showed me a few weeks ago?

ahh thanks! i am not sure if i make it that better but i appreciate that! i think the world would be a really nice place if people were as friendly and kind as you! yup balancing both of those rules can be pretty difficult, like often times i get ideas that just doesn't match the aesthetic of the project haha. ah sorry got kinda confused there, did you mean who inspires me to create or learn more? for creation i usually check Saintzepth and Sereshay's designs since i really like their style a lot, for learning it's PriinceYuki since he pretty much taught/guided me on how to make everything the layout, pfps, forum sets (not this one though since it's my first time making a 1 banner set) etc, talking to him about different styles/methods makes me want to learn more. ah i don't have photoshop i use pixlr for most design stuff so often times tutorials don't help as much since the ui is very different and some features aren't available like some blend modes, drop shadow for text etc. i've been thinking about switching to photopea since that's probably the closest to photoshop's ui i might be able to learn more there. ah that looks great! hmm i'll have to check if there's a redial option in blending mode, i'll try to test more with the gradient setting as well. thank you for helping me with this! hopefully i'll be able to finish this banner soon.

yeah i'd imagine making sure every text layer is rotated just the right amount must've taken a long time haha!

do you mean the curriculums? i always did edexcel/cambridge which were the british systems but as far as i know, up to year10 local/international should have pretty similar syllabi. yup! though i cant remember much of it now, my little brother does get to pick whatever he wants but his teachers are super strict about making sure everyone finishes everything & eats their greens haha- which is good since he's incredibly picky and wont even look at a banana without someone gentle persuasion from my side hahah

yup! everyone speaks english and that too fairly well, though throughout my childhood most of my classmates were east asian so they spoke jp/cn/kr when in their groups and even got me to join the chinese language class we had at school so i could speak with them TT they were amazing
that's very humble of you haha but i swear non-native speakers sometimes speak better english that natives, perhaps because they had to make an active effort to learn the language. english is technically my second language too & at one point it superseded my native one lol

oh- in that way i still haven't passed that stage i guess. since outside of savings/investments most of money goes to fun things outside of gifting (which i love love to do). i tend to spend most of my fun money on things vs experiences though i do try and find a healthy balance between the two when i can~~

i left my parents on my 18th birthday (turned 18th on the flight, and the attendants even brought cake TT) but i try and visit them (or vice versa) at least once a year. im actually going next week so im getting ready for that now :D

at the time of that comment i think my layout was already up so tadaaaaa hahah
though speaking of layouts im glad you managed to finish yours (๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ did you have fun making it? i swear making everything align with that angle would drive me off the rails so massive respect><

oml shino love your new layout!! it was definitely worth the wait, but that's a given╰(*´︶`*)╯now i no longer need to wait inside my tent for it :cheers: also, wth?? "I just thought of you whenever I found a nice song nowadays so I rushed and posted that video on your page" that's so sweet of you pls T-T you're gonna give me diabetes saying that, lol. things have been hectic on my end with boring job and uni matters, and i'll be having my graduation date on the 30th of this month. therefore, i guess that answered your question. not really sure if i'll continue it next month, but it isn't a priority right now as i have too many things going on :sweats:

happy you like the yuta bday card! :hugs: yeah since you don't disclose it here, seems like i'll have to put a reminder on my phone for next year, haha <3

nooooo food poisoning is the absolute worst. i wonder which food it was :c i've only gotten food poisoned 2 times, but both legit made me feel like i was on the verge of dying, no kidding.

HAHAHAHA YES OF COURSE I HAD TO STALK XD
I'M SO HAPPY AND EXCITED FOR PAGU!!!! AAAAAA

I know, my waifu and Paguu had both grown up so well T^T sniff sniff* so proud... ♥

Ohhh right- that is nice you two are so local now!

waifu, you always hold a special place in my heart and your name will always be on my profile too ♥

LMAO do you still have the blog posts where you post all your layouts since 2008?
HAHAHAHAHA. They were amazing back then too, pls

IT'S HERE IT'S HERE IT'S FINALLY HEEEEEERE !!!
Aaaaaa i already told you but it's just so good shino tan !! this yuta goodness is such a banger (ʘ ͟ʖ ʘ)╯彡┻━┻ WE NEED MORE SHONEN ERA FROM YOU TRULY THIS THE COOLEST <333
& GOKURAKUGAI YES YES YES /noms.

Ooo i can’t wait to see what theme you will pick next, especially if it's going to be colorful (¬‿¬)

yeah i thought creating things for series that we like is pretty cool! i started to appreciate designing more as i worked on the layout (since i learned how difficult it can be to put everything together haha!). yeah he made me a pfp back in the day which made me interested in learning more. ah i see! inspirations from other designs are really helpful to get motivated, though often times i couldn't really figure out what effect was used or how certain elements were made, i'd imagine it's something that'll make sense as i practice more. for effects i was trying to figure out how to utilize lighting, for example here's a banner/signature that i am working on but something feels off, i am assuming it's the lighting since my usual method of lighting (empty layer, paint then screen blend mode) and bokeh didn't really help it much. another effect i've been curious about was the tear effect where it looks like the background was teared apart like paper and then there's another layer underneath it.


yeah the layout is really well made, i liked the rotated text a lot!

your new profile layout looks amazing!!

OKAY I FINALLY SCROLLED DOWN FAR ENOUGH ON HIS FB TO FIND, AND THEN CONFIRM WHO HIS FIANCE IS!!

AAAAAAA I'M SO EXCITED!!!!

IT MAKES ME SO HAPPY TO HAVE THE PINGU STAMP OF APPROVAL
BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY... YOUR YUTA LAYOUT IS FINALLY UP!!!
