Lucid Fanart Surprise Awards

June 30, 2013 Dee Leave a comment

Even though I haven’t updated in a while there are some amazing people out there who are still thinking of me and Lucid Fanart 🙂 I’d like to thank Brittany at All Night Noise for making Lucid Fanart site of the month for July 2013 and check out my beautiful award. Also while I’m at it I should mention that the AFA awards were good to me this year as well I somehow managed to get 15 awards it was a great night and so many beautiful awards were given out and I feel honoured that I managed to get some of them. I hope everyone else had a great night and and congratulations to everyone who participated and lets hope for another great one next year.

Thanks to the AFA awards I’ve started doing some art work again and even started rebuilding lucid fanart I’ve got some cool looking designs, I’ve just got to piece it together, it may take a while as I’m making it responsive, and combining the two programs I use to run Lucid Fanart into one. So hopefully soon I’ll be able to show you a brand new site. But for now how about some brand new artwork.

Awards!!!!

July 4, 2011 Dee 7 Comments

Holy crap! so many awards!!. If you didn’t know the AFA 2011 ceremony happened a few weeks ago and can I say it was so much fun! I got to talk to people I’ve admired for a long time in the fanart world (all be it online it wasn’t a physical thing) and I also got a lot of fantastic awards! I said something during the ceremony that I think sums up how amazing the awards have been.

its difficult sometimes especially in my job doing art work for really boring things like… wire products (yes I said wire) among other really boring things (I’m sure most of you are in a similar boat), and then come back and work on other art work even if it is enjoyable it can still become a chore doing it all day and evenings, but I have to say the AFA awards have given me such a boost in confidence and drive! and Ehlwyen I’m so glad I got back into Buffy Forums its been such a help for my inspiration and education, I have to say I rely a lot on you guys for inspiration especially with the forum challenges and giving me a reason to keep going with the art work if it wasn’t for Buffy Forums and the community here I probably would have packed it in years ago!!!!

and I’m totally with you Amber there were a few artists I didn’t know about before the AFA such as Xinyi, Sophie, Clement, and JJ to name a few but I’ve saved all their art work and got it on my wallpaper rotator I’m so glad I joined in the AFA this year its been really uplifting and I hope everyone feels the same way. so thank you SayJay for brining us all together and enhancing the already fantastic Buffy Forums Art Community!

I got an email today from SayJay at Radiance a website I’ve stalked for god knows how long and I’ve been.. lol I say I’ve been my site has been awarded site of the month!

April SOTM Shadow of the Day

March 30, 2011 Dee 2 Comments

I missed last month, been really busy with work, and what with getting the new layout live been super busy. but gave me a chance to get a head start this month 😉 I have awarded Shadow of the Day as Lucid Fanart’s site of the month.

Reason: I’m totally loving Shadow of the Day at the moment, not only does Marilyne have an amazing site, the layout she has to her site always has consistency which I find important with a site, the navigation is really easy to follow, and the designs are always really delicate and well thought out. She has a real flare for Merlin art work… [Read More]

I’ve also been awarded site of the month at two sites last month and this month, I am so proud get get these awards. Last month Christine from Surrender Your Soul awarded me site of the month check out my cute twilight style award. And this month the wonderful Brittany has awarded Lucid Fanart as site of the month and look at my awesome Being Human USA award.

It has been a fantastic month for me not only did I get the two awesome site of the month awards, but I got some art awards over at Buffy Forums. I got Honourable Mention over at the Angelogy challenge for my Legend of the Seeker wallpaper Angel of Death. I have also got 1st Place W00T! for my Angel Poster.

As you can see my last post was a tutorial, I was actually quite surprised when I saw my poll that a lot of you wanted to see more tutorials. I personally think I suck at making tutorials but I’ll try my best. I’m gonna work my way through the Adjustment Layers for Photoshop tutorials, and maybe add in a few wallpaper tutorials when I make new wallpapers I find it difficult to go back and redo wallpapers becuase a lot of the time I just do trial and error its the only advice I give people really play with photoshop and you can’t go wrong.

Not sure what kind of HTML and CSS or PHP tutorials I can give you but if you guys have any ideas or if there is anything you’ve seen on my site you would like to try for yourself just make a note of it in my comments and I’ll make a tutorial on it.

November 1, 2010 Dee Leave a comment

A new month already, time is just going by so quickly, although I am happy I got quite a few posts out last month probably my most productive month so far. xD I have already updated you guys on my new affiliates in my update yesterday but please check them out, and don’t forget to pick up the Halloween gift in yesterdays post. I would also like to thank Monica, Lauren and Jenn for the holiday gifts that are now up in my awards section I have also updated all my gifts stating which is for what season and from whom.

Reason: I have been a HUGE fan of Jenni over at Daydreaming for a very long time now, I remember her site when she first started it up, it was amazing then and it has bloomed into this GIGANTIC media/art/goodies centre, I use Daydreaming for a lot of my images, and I also… [read more]
