Well Seems like I'm going to practice once a day for an hour on proportions and realism stuff. If I get practicing on that then the manga might be more effective or dynamic or something. With the help of my friend Callie of course. She's awesome. I do still have pages to tone up and put on archive so Chapter 1 is about to close and then I can work on Chapter 2.

Also got some other project to work on so I'll keep you guys updated on that. The tagboard is closed right now due to the spambots and spammers that uses it to try to advertise their skanky stuff. Sorry but this site is more directed to people that aren't going to buy penis enlargers. Please go to a porn site and spam there.

I'm going to grab some fund over the next few weeks of my husband payperiod for a contest I want to hold. So here's hoping things goes as planned. As well I need to redo some pages so that it's good for Lulu.com publications. I'm afraid that the resolution size I have so far aren't good enough for it. I might have to do a test print and see how it goes. If it looks good or not. This may mean I have to buy a copy for myself and see.

Also going to do a compliation of my drawings and artwork for an artbook. I mean if this is going to be my life and a way of how to bring in income to this household I gotta do it right and be assertive about it. Wish me luck. =x

Well I did it. I've redid the site and made it work in both IE and FIREFOX. Also the big news about this site revamp is that it's 95% DIV layers. So yeah worked out great. Got alot more to do on the site. Need to add the forums and finish up the rest of the linked pages. As well as putting up the newly sketched pages which will be toned before it is put in queue. =D

There's been alot of misfits going around in my household. Meaning that my daughter is getting more and more curious about everything. It's hard to work on pages and artwork when she's around me cause she wants to play with what I'm using. She loves watching me draw pictures and she would force me to draw her something and so I draw her pictures that she would be familar with, like dogs, cats, birds, stars etc. She would repeat what they are to me as I finish drawing them. I guess she just wants to be like mommy.

My commissions page is up so I am up for any commission request. The form to automate it isn't up yet so you must email me the request. Also I've been working on side projects to keep my artistic skill up and help improve them. I've been also trying to get some old sketchs I've found cleaned up adn colored for my dA portfolio. Eventually all this will be worth it in the end.

Well I am very sleepy or hungry... I think I'm more hungry than sleepy and very cold. I am going to continue to work on the site some more.

Ok I'm going to get everything running at 100% by January 6th. Well everything that is interactive. As well I've decided to just do the comic pages on my computer. Probably easier if I had a Cintiq tablet but I can deal without it for now. I'm also debating on buying A5 manga paper to do my comic/manga work on. I've also decided that I am going to go with Lulu.com for publishing the series and Chapter 1 is almost undergoing the first process of it. I need to figure out how to do the setup work for it so I might ask around and search the FAQ there for some info and tips. Of course I'll have to order a copy myself to make sure it's printing properly. Or I can ask my friend if she can set up the book pdf for me >=o

Oh I want to give a great thanks to andrelle33. I use his online name cause my husband has told me not to give out other peoples real name for security/stalker reasons lol, but andrelle33 has generously donated some cash to "encourage" me to continue the DE series. I'm a bit surprised seeing that I haven't even finished up stage one of a last commission that he requested from me which I regret that I never got done. /cry /wrist. Gomenasai andrelle33. For that great donation I will create a special gift with any character you want. It can be anything just send me email about what it is you like. Actually I might go and buy a deviantArt subscription with that cash. Or just let it sit in my Paypal.

I am also working on Auken art card image. =D I just am about 25% done with it. Another 75% to go. Background is coming out nicely I think and I've been working hard to make it look anime-ish but I don't think it's coming out looking like I expected. We'll see when I post it up on dA.

Also to explain some things about the current updates redoing from the beginning. As everyone else knows that my server colocator just didn't give us fair warning about an 8 day grace period from the day you are billed to the end of the 8 day "wait time" that if you don't pay for the server your information gets deleted and the server is sold to someone else. So about a month before they "sold" our server I had revamped DE and it's database back to it's original formailty and after Blizzcon the server was gone before I could back it up. So I spend a week trying to get it back to normal and now I have to do it all over again. Sucks yeah, but that is life I guess and I will get back to work on getting things back to normal. =D

Thanks to everyone for their support.

The reworking is coming, although for those that are viewing this site in Firefox you will see broken tables and missing backgrounds. I am currently working to make the layout work in firefox but if it comes down to it I will have to give people who is viewing through the firefox browser the old layout design. So next time there's a news update you'll probably see the website automatically switch you to the proper layout depending on what browser you are viewing the site through.

Yes redoing the site. Reuploading the pages and apparently going to start from scratch again to promote my online manga once again. Anyhelp would be appreciated from my long time fans. If not I can manage. To those that kept checking back thanks for your support.
