This is an overwritten entry over the previous one (which made no sense at all - I mentioned that the CSS was screwed up and that I would get it fixed within a few days, but the thing is my host's server had a lot of problems, resulting in my CSS screwing up all over again).
Anyway, I am glad to announce the winner of the Labelled Love Competition. The grand winner, F-urballs (also known as Nini) - is a fifteen-year-old girl from Malaysia. You may want to view her winning skin here.
The judges and I were happy to have concluded this competition after a few days of gruesome judging process. The result was a success and we have received more than enough entries (although I would say that I would have wanted more - but it would have given the judges a huge headache to judge every skin within the tight timeline). Thank you all for the participation - and to the other winners and participants, your contribution is very much appreciated.
In the meantime, I am still working on my new website, which would be shifted to my personal domain here. As of now, everything is smooth sailing. Except that I have problems trying to get things done on time since I am having my internship at the moment. Give me some more time, and I promise I will finish up my work and get things up and going.
Also, I have plans to revive my tutorials. And of course, I do hope to come up with items for people to download. In which I would reveal soon. :)
I know. This is a very late post. But anyway, happy new year everyone. I have not been submitting skins for quite a long time but I do intend to submit a few when I do. (and yes, I already have one in mind, but it was created out of pure curiosity) As for my new year resolutions, I am going to try to come up with a new design for my website. (since this one is dying like hell - I don't even know who bothers to come here anymore) Other than that, I will also be working on a few things myself and with my online good friends.
In the meantime, I am also hosting a Valentine's Day competition with my friends purely out of interest and fun. The winner will be given a commendation on my blog and on my blogskins' profile page for 4 weeks. (and I do hope that my site will be revamped by then, but I am having a lot of doubts as to whether I can dig up enough time) I am really hoping to see some impressive entries. It will be tedious to judge all the skins but I am sure it will turn out great. So please do not hack me up into pieces for being too strict with the judging. :-)
As for a little sneak update, Lix, Evone and I are working together on the TBB website. Everything is under construction for now but we really look forward to people supporting the website. Without anyone else, it is nothing.
That's it for now. I'm going to try and get some sleep for school tomorrow.
It has been more than a month since I have updated here. Well, basically I have stopped making blogskins for a while because I am so caught up with projects, I don't even feel inspired to design a new skin. In fact, I need to do something for a living, and skinning is only an alternative to give my mind some form of relaxation and space to explore for new ideas. So far, schoolwork is alright but it is just not exciting enough. Everyone is doing last minute work and I am ashamed to say that I am one of the sinners as well. I guess it is because I have grown so used to doing all this work that I've begun to lose a little focus.
However I will be having my internship in a few months' time and I must say I am definitely looking forward to it. So for a whole of 9 weeks, I will be interning at this studio and gaining some experience for myself. I am looking forward to learn new things, too. In the meantime, I have to crawl back to my packaging assignment and pour my brain cells over the loathesome, useless and disgusting 3D Maya programme. I am sorry, but I absolutely hate 3D Maya. It is the worst thing to ever happen in my life - period. I am a noob at this software because I have completely no interest in 3D rendering.
But thankfully my current lecturer is very nice and patient with us. I am actually beginning to pick up a handful of useful skills.

Born in the year 1990, I grow a little younger and a little more charming on every 23rd of January. I am your average human being with an ordinary pair of beautiful eyes, an ordinary beautiful nose and an ordinary pair of beautiful lips. I think, I feel, I sleep and I eat like any other ordinary human being does.
My fields of interest revolve around web design, interactive design and illustration. I like to venture out on my own and explore the world for great ideas and works, even if it may be in my imaginations or a sandcastle built in my dreams. My inspirations and motivation come from my family, friends and fellow mates who share the same passion for design. They are the greatest things alive, just like the seven wonders of the sea. Except they have a pair of eyes, a nose, and a pair of lips.
I enjoy genres like alternative rock, indie and piano rock. Music plays a part in my life. It never fails to influence me and inspire me. I am not a fan of the colour pink and I absolutely hate it, but I enjoy using the colour - often resulting in my works being a contradiction of my personality. Please do not question my mentality. I could be bipolar, but no, I would not bite or gnaw or chew or gobble you up. One day, I hope to meet someone influential and inspirational. Someone who is charming enough not to knock me off my senses and sweep me off my two-inched feet.
