Just wanted to pop in and say thank you for all the people who nominated me at the hg_silverlining's Best of 2008 Awards and in the hpgw_otp's Fourth Annual Best Of Awards :

kentish_queen for the nomination of my fic A True Slytherin on hg_silverlining for Best Romance.
horntail_tattoo for the nomination for my fic A True Slytherin on hpgw_otp for Most Romantic Story.
r_becca for the nomination for my artwork The Silver Lining on hpgw_otp for Best Artwork.
hglove for the nomination for my Adventures on Christmas Day (NC-17) on hpgw_otp for Steamiest artwork.
quiet_discord for the nomination for my artwork The Silver Lining on hpgw_otp for Best Depiction on a Cannon Scene.

So thank you so much, it really means a lot!

After doing some thinking, I decided to quit LiveJournal.

One reason is because my life is a real mess right now and I need to figure myself out.
The other is because people don't respond to my journal, and I guess no one will even notice this post anyway, probably because no one reads this, but if you are, then know that I'm not blaming anyone, of course. I guess the deal here is that if I comment to you, then you comment to me, and I realized that I can't do that. I feel like I haven't really made friends here and if I had, then it's not the same anymore, as they have new interests in fandoms or hobbies that I'm not familiar with, so that way I can't be involved in most of their posts.

Note this: I'm not quitting the fandom. Not yet, anyway. I'm still going to post my fanart and fanfictions at my DeviantArt and fanfiction.net accounts (respectively, of course), so I hope I'll hear from you there. And maybe, just maybe, I may put up my own website too, someday.

I'm not deleting my journal and I'm still going to be around, to check my f-list once in a while and I may be found commenting in some posts, here or there, but I won't update this journal anymore. If you need me, you have my email in the profile page, you can always reach me there.

It has been a good journey and I'm going miss you. Thank you for the good times. Thank you for whoever commented and complimented.

Sincerely yours,
Reut.

Over than a year ago, I started building my own HP website, one that I can put all my fanart and fanfictions in (and yes, that's including my smut stuff :D ) It's all fun and easy to do, but apparently I'm way too lazy to finish it. And every time I make a nice looking layout, I then want to make a new one, because the first was getting too boring. So I need you to motivate me to go on and give me your aspects and ideas. Please answer the questions below:

1. Now that the HP fandom is starting to disappear, do you think that a new website with my fanart and fanfictions will make up for it a bit?

2. Isn't there enough HP fanart websites out there? Would you like to see another one up online with my art in it or would it be enough for me to post my art here on LJ and on DeviantArt?

3. Would you come and look at it? If so, how often do you think you'd be visiting?

4. What else would you like to see in my site, other than my fanart and fanfictions?

5. Since I'm almost completely broke, everything in this website is going to be based on free online tools (like free domain, hosting and other features), and some of those free tools may add banners and ads to the site (although, I'll try my best to find ones that are still free and banner-less). Do you think you'll mind visiting a website with ads and banners?

6. Should I put a section for my non-HP art and fanfictions on this site, or should those stay out and be posted in a different site?

7. If the art and fanfictions will be blocked for saving, do you think you would mind?

8. Do you think you'll be irritated if the site will be updated slowly and not regularly?

9. What colors would you prefer the layout will have?

10. Which site resolution you think is best: 800x600 or 1024x768?

If you have anything else to add and say, I'd be happy to hear.
Thank you. :)

I was listening to my iPod and I this song came up and I was inspired to draw something.

Title: Breathing
