new obsession :)

Posted by ingrid | 14/08/08

I am totally in love with the books from Twilight saga!!!! I just think that the relationship between Edard and Bella is sooo beautiful. I can't wait for the movie, argh, 4 months left. Until just a week ago I had only heard of Twilight, I'd seen icons and other artwork, but I knew nothing of the book itself. Then one day, after my paycheck had arrived :), I was looking online for books to add to my already vast collection. That day I stumbled across Twilight. It hasn't been translated into Estonian yet, so I ordered the book in English thinking it could only be useful to practice reading in English, because I would have to do that a lot in college soon. I read the book in two days, I couldn't put it down until I was finished, I barely left my room :) I ordered New Moon and Eclipse right away, they haven't been delivered yet and I couldn't wait so long to read what happens next. So I downloaded the audio books. For four days straight I walked around with earphones listening to the books :) When I'd finished I searched to see if there were more books in the series. And there was, the just published Breaking Dawn. It was so new that there wasn't an audio book available yet. You can't imagine the happiness I felt when I went out on a limb and downloaded a very small file with the correct title. I thought it wasn't the genuine thing, because it was so small. It downloaded in mere minutes and when I opened it, I felt another wave of happiness :) It was an e-book. It took me a little longer to read, because it was over 800 pages long and because staring at the computer screen constantly made my eyes hurt a little, but I managed to read it through in a few days. I was kind of sad, sine this was the last book in the series. And though there are a lot of complaints about Breaking Dawn and though I would've written it a little different myself, I enjoyed the happy ending Stephenie Meyer gave Edward and Bella. Even now, whenever I have a free moment, I either read or listen to all of my favourite spots :)

So I think you understand what I mean when I say Twilight is my new OBSESSION :) I haven't made icons yet, I'm not in the mood, but the other day I made a bunch of wallpapers. I'll try to post them somewhere soon :)

A lot has happened....

Posted by ingrid | 22/07/08

.... since my last blog. I'm not in a writing mood at the moment, I've got too much on my mind. Thankfully I finally decided which college to go to, I'm going to Tartu Unversity to study English language and literature. I haven't decided yet whether to go to a dorm or apartment. I also have to finish car school, which is a big pain in the butt right now.

As I mentioned above, I'm not really in the mood the write right now, so this is the end of my blog today.

back with Alassë

Posted by ingrid | 29/06/08

Back with my old host. I feel kind of bad because Clarisa already set up everything for me and I already moved all the stuff... But what the hell, I'm just gonna use the space for something else then :)

Anyway I also put up a fanlisting for Prison Break episodes 1.06 and 1.07 so if you're a fan check it out.

new host

Moved to a new host, thank you so much, Clarisa, for hosting me :)

I graduated high school last Saturday, finally it's over. Now I'm going to try to et into an university :) Otherwise nothing new in my life :)

SWC icons

Posted by ingrid | 08/06/08

Took a little break from icon-making. I've been to work a lot and now I'm finishing school. I have two more exams and then high school's finally over :)

Today I added 51 Sarah Wayne Callies icons. Used photoshoot images and some pictures from when she starred in Tarzan. I haven't seen that yet, but I will soon. They only made 8 episodes, so I take it wasn't very popular, but I still want to see it :)

Anyway, click the previews to access them all :)

buffy icons

Posted by ingrid | 30/05/08

Yes, that's right, another icon post. I've found my passion :) Today I made 60 Buffy, the Vampire Slayer icons. All icons are made out of 6.07 - Once More, With Feeling caps, which is one of my favourite Buffy episodes ever. All of the actors are also very talented singers. I love the episode and I've watched it about 20 times :)

wentworth icons

Posted by ingrid | 28/05/08

Wow, I'm on an icon-making spree :) 41 Wentworth Miller icons have been added to the gallery. I used various photoshoots of Went for the batch. He's one of my favourite actors and I loved making these :) Can't wait for season 4 of Prison Break!!!

a bunch of jessica alba icons

Posted by ingrid | 27/05/08

Today I made 50 Jessica Alba icons out of various photoshoots from 2006, 2007 and 2008. I think they turned out really well :) Click to view all.

girl section updates & new icons

Posted by ingrid | 25/05/08

I can't believe it myself - I finally added stuff to the Girl section. I updated the Calendar and added 2 new sections - Toychest and Wishlist.

I also made 13 new Roswell icons. 9 of them feature Shiri and 4 Max & Liz. I experimented with new styles and I think I've never made icons that look like this. Some are made from black-and-white images. Here's a little preview and click to access the entire set.

I'm alive!!!

Posted by ingrid | 23/05/08

Yes, I haven't been around much. I do have very good excuses :) My computer broke down, then I got a laptop, and then I lost all of my data from my old computer. That includes all of my graphics which I hadn't posted yet. I feel most sorry for Simply Dreams, my Charmed fan site. I had closed the site a while back, but I still wanted to keep the hole thing just for myself. Well, that didn't work out so good... This also means I won't be posting my wallpapers, due to the fact that I simply do not have them anymore :( Anyhow, enough of that, I'm sad, but I'll get over it.

Another thing I wanted to say was that I know I've been promising to work on the site, put up more content and stuff. And I know I've haven't been keeping my word regarding that. I truly am busy with finishing school and going to work and living my life :) But I do still want to update the site, even if there aren't so many visitors. This site is here mainly just for me. Anyway I want to work on the site, but it's hard to find time. I will try, I promise :)

Here comes some better news. I hadn't been making any art for several months. I didn't have time or the will. But the good news is I got my inspiration back. It all started with Prison Break. At first I thought it was a crappy show and didn't even bother to turn the TV on, but when I watched an episode, just one, I got totally hooked on it. I can't get enough :) I have seen the second and third season, but still waiting on the first, and I'm just dying to see it. I'm in love with Michael & Sara :) So I made a Michael and Sara blend and then started to make icons and so on. So I have a little art post to make. Here's the list:  2 Charmed blends

                1 Buffy blend

                1 Prison Break blend

                8 Prison Break icons

                3 PS I Love You icons
I made the Charmed and Buffy blends and PS I Love You icons for a blend challenge. I wanna win some awards :) So cross your fingers everybody.

Here's a little preview of the blends :) Icons can be found here and here.

Merry christmas!

Posted by ingrid | 24/12/07

Whoa, it's been so long since my last update - over 2 months. I did have some major computer troubles in the beginning of December, but thankfully my brother fixed everything.

Besides that I just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas!

A little conserning the site. I really haven't paid a lot of attention to Confessions and updated the sections. I will try to change the fanlistings section over the Christmas break, but I might be too lazy for that. But, it is on my to-do list :)

A little random thing - I became a fan of Grey's Anatomy. I've only seen a couple of episodes, because it's on really late in the evening, but I love it. I can't wait until the next episode already :)

New icons

Posted by ingrid | 13/10/07

Finally I made some new icons. They're all Rose McGowan icons made out of the Planet Terror caps. Caps by R-M.com

I like them and I think I did a pretty good job, considering that I'm not really good at making icons :)

I'm also looking for a place to put up my wallpapers. I have some Buffy, Charmed Lost and Rose ones. I can't upload them to the gallery that hosts my other graphics, because that would resize them, cause they're too large. Anyway I'll be looking :)

fanlistings

Posted by ingrid | 04/10/07

I've uploaded two of my fanlistings on this server, because I had no other place to put them. They will stay here until I find a better home for them. Anyway one is the Buffy 4.11 "Doomed" fanlisting and the other is Heroes 1.14 "Distractions" fanlisting. So if you're a fan, go ahead and join :)

I'm also going to put some new stuff to the Girl section soon. I'm planning on adding a few pictures and stuff :)

a new colorization

Posted by ingrid | 29/09/07

Hi. Sorry for not posting at all, but I've been really busy with school and I haven't made any graphics for a while either. But yesterday I was in the mood so I made a new colorization. It's a Sarah Michelle Gellar one. I think it's my best one ever. It took me about an hour to do so I'm very proud of myself :)

some new blends

Posted by ingrid | 14/08/07

I've added 4 new blends to my art gallery. One is the layout of the Buffy fanlisting I mentioned in my previous post and the other three are my experiments while making this layout. I changed some colors and added a little text, so you get to see the three (very similar) versions I came up with and I thought were worth saving.

new layout!!!

Posted by ingrid | 13/08/07

Hi! As you can see I've put up a new layout, which is totally different from the last one. I absolutely adore this layout :) Thanks so much to Lucya for the inspiration and for the coding. The header is made by moi in Photoshop and I'm very proud of myself :)

I've also put up a new fanlisting for the Buffy episode 4.11 Doomed. So if you're a fan check it out by clicking the image below :)
