Well, I'm writing a Pokemon fan fic. I havent named it yet though. I've named some of the chapters. (like the one where my characters meets a certain other character ) The main charater is Etana Darae Nishazura (dont ask). She lives in Azalea and obviously starts her journey in Johto. From there she is going to go to the Orange Islands, then back to Johto and take the train to Kanto, then probably ferry to Hoenn, then somehow get to Sinnoh.

Im using Crystal as a guideline, so I'm playing crystal and practically writing every move And I've sworn off all other games (except the other 3 in my now playing list) until I beat Crystal. Then I'm gonna have to get Ruby and Pearl.

And there's also other characters created by Rave, Kingdom, and a certain someone. And speaking of those characters, Kingdom and Rave if you two are reading this, feel like creating character bios for your characters? (I'm kinda thinking something like the character profiles on absoluteanime.com) I'm gonna put Etana's character bio up on my geocities page and post the link once I'm done ^_^ And if anyone wants to create their own character, be my guest. I can certainly use more characters.

Happy New Year!

I'm back! I'm not gonna be on all day like I was before though. I'm kinda wondering why I did that now. And if anybody wants to catch me off of GS I'm all over the place. I'm on Myspace, Facebook, Bebo, devaintArt, theotaku, Yahoo 360, Flixster, LiveJournal, etc. Just PM me for the rest of the links (cant name them off the top of my head ) I'm gonna spend quite a bit of today reading PMs and attempting to catch up in unions (and maybe giving my profile a makeover...). I'm sorry I've been gone so long. I've really missed everybody. And I'm also on AIM and Yahoo IM (PM for SN)

Also, I'm seriously thinking about handing over the reins (lack of a better wording) in my Yu-Gi-Oh unions. I just don't have the same passion for it that I used to. The anime is gone and I seem to the the only one who cares about it, and I'm behind in it! The only thing that still seems to be around is the TCG and I dont want to focus on that. If you're interested in being leader if Yu-Gi-Oh! Universe or the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX union, PM me. I'm still gonna be a part of the union. And please dont change the names. And who knows, maybe someday I'll regain my passion for Yu-Gi-Oh!.

I came up with a great holiday idea too. As I'm pretty sure everybody knows, I have quite the creative side and I love designing. So if anybody wants a new banner, sig, avatar, whatever, let me know, and I'll happily make one for you (hehe I'm even working on myspace contact boxes. ) I'll be happy to show off some of my recent artwork, if anybody wants me to. Again, sorry I've been gone so long. I have a lot of catching up to do. Hope to talk to everyone soon!

UPDATES

1 - Wow I cant believe everybody missed me so much. Awwe! *hugs* But like Sen and N_P said, it'd be better if Tanao were back too. I've missed everybody.

2 - GS keeps logging me out so its difficult to catch up. I'm surprised I managed to get through my 74 PMs. (I had a lot more on dA...) I've still gotta go to unions and a couple forums, but I did update my now playing list.

3 - I'm working on a Hinata/NaruHina wallpaper, but I'm kinda stuck. I finally found a perfect pic of Hinata I want to use, but I cant edit it right. (damn I wish I had photoshop) I wanna use this pic, but I cant change the background color (plus I need to take out the first 3 pics of Hinata). Otherwise it's perfect ^_^ Once I'm done with the wallpaper I'l put it on Photobucket and maybe dA.

Ok sorry for the really long absense. Although it kinda seems like I didnt miss much   I've been on Facebook quite a bit though. If anyones on there let me know And thanks to Naruto_Phonetic and meteorgun7 for keeping me posted (no pun intended ) and since I havent been on in what feels like forever here's one heck of an update on me -

I've also been working on Harvest Moon Another Wonderful Life. Luckily I'm only working on one file here and the seasons are only 10 days long. On my current file I have Gustafa (the one I'm gonna marry) at 4 hearts and I think I'm in Summer or Fall (dont feel like checking - i was already going back and forth checking MM ) and I have the Blue Feather on the shelf. I forget what I named the dog, farm and cow , but my character's name is Carrie, and I did make this sig -

Arent they just the cutest couple *awe look*
And I've restarted one of my Harvest Moon More Friends of Mineral Town files (the one where I'm gonna marry Cliff), but I'll update on that later (I hope )
And for anyone who wants to see a lot of my work (sigs, tags, banners, avatars, etc) i'm gonna be posting it up on Anime Creations
Well talk to everybody later I missed you guys!!! (and i still need to change my theme Sorry N_P )

Ok, I'm working on the avatar for Yu-Gi-Oh! Universe, and I have this -

and this -

All I need is Joey and Flame Swordsman/Red Eyes Black Dragon. I'm working on a new logo.

I'm also working on a new avatar for the GX Union. I'm thinking Jaden and Winged Kuriboh, Chazz and Ojama Yellow, and the logo (which i'm also working on)

And I've figured out the level system for Yu-Gi-Oh! Universe I have a list of things that will count toward leveling up. including posting and other things. Unfortunately it's gonna take me forever to count all the posts, so I made a suggestion on the Site Enhancment Board on the GS forums to be able to sort posts by forum. So until a get some sort of responce, I'm gonna count up the stuff besides posts. And I'm making a new thread.

If I remember something else I'll add it later

Well, I just went back to my two unions (Yu-Gi-Oh! Universe and Yu-Gi-Oh! GX) and it's really sad. I had major visions for them, both of which I started toward a while back when I first created/became leader of them, but somehow, it just never came through. And now the members are forgetting what the related threads were there for I'm gonna try to recreate my visions, but I cant do it alone. Here is a summary of my vision for Yu-Gi-Oh! Universe (the one I created) -

Ok I was working on kinda turning it into Domino. Like during Battle City. I had duelist profiles, duelist levels, etc. I had a thread entitled "Kaiba Corp Mainframe" where I kept the profiles and kept track of the levels. Here's my profile:

And here is an example of the first 5 levels -

The problem with the levels is that I never figured out how I was gonna handle the leveling up. What criteria should there be? Should posting count? Creating new topics? coming up with new ideas? making banners, sigs, etc? how much should each count for? If anybody has any ideas to help with this, I'm all ears!!!

Here's a summary of my vision for Yu-Gi-Oh! GX (the one I became leader of) -

My vision for this was to make it like Duel Academy. I even I had Student ID's partially started as well as an "Entrance Exam" to decide which dorm the students would be in.
An example of the front of a student ID card (mine) -

The backs still needed work. I had trouble figuring out what to put on the backs besides username. (need help with this too)

But now the only conversation in them is about the TCG. Not the anime, not the games, just the TCG. Theyre supposed to cover all the Yu-Gi-Oh! (and Yu-Gi-Oh! GX) aspects, not just one. True, I've been away from my unions for a long time. I missed how they used to be, before some of the best members were banned. I was trying to run away from the pain and in a way I was dwelling on the past. But I'm ashamed of that now and I'm back. And I'm not giving up on them (or my visions for them) without a fight!! But I cant do this alone. Any officer who isnt cooperative may be demoted. And vice-versa, any recruit who is of great help, may be promoted (if the wish to be).

If anyone wants to join said unions feel free to do so. And also I need my officers to PM me. And motherofangels4 can you please PM me too? I have a question for you. Also if anyone else has questions feel free to PM me. (I know I may very well end up with a couple dozen plus PM's but I'll take that as a good thing)

Well this is YamiMoonMage - Over & Out! (hehe that part was fun )

Edit - ok I forgot to put links to my unions so here they are -

http://www.gamespot.com/pages/unions/home.php?union_id=YGOUniverse

http://www.gamespot.com/pages/unions/home.php?union_id=GX

And also I finally figred out the level up system!!! Woohoo!!!!!!!! I'll put them into effect once I have a couple hours on here. (which is likely tomorrow morning) I'm starting to figure out the backs of the ID's and I'm working on new avatars/icons for both unions. btw, if anybody knows how to animate those, let me know.

Yes, I've finally changed my theme Whaddya think? I've changed my tv.com, mp3.com, and filmspot themes also. And I've changed my layout on myspace. I've updated my main website too.

 While I was working on my new themes, I did some.. re-oraganizing of my sigs and banners, so if you have a missing banner or sig I made for you let me know and I'll give you the new link. And also remember when I had two Kakashi banners in with my Bleach ones? well I did that with my Naruto sigs as well, only it was all of them. I scared the sh!t out of myself on that one. but now everythings where it belongs.

I saw the newest Pokemon movie friday. Pokemon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea. It was awesome but it made me want Pokemon Ranger more and I cant get it!! I've never wanted anything more in my life! And plus, I'm not gonna be able to get Pokemon Diamond when it comes out, so now I'm gonna be the only one not playing it!!

 I've been playing my Harry Potter games lately and I've beaten Sorcerer's Stone GBC again. I'm still stuck on Sorcerer's Stone GBA. I've gotten a little further on Chamber of Secrets GBA and I started Chamber of Secrets GBC over again (and am nearly getting my @ss kicked...)

 I'm working on Pokemon Sapphire again and apparently I havent beaten the Elite Four yet, so now I'm working on that. And apparently I forgot I had caught Feebas on there, and that I had caught 2 of them and had been breeding them. I tried to evolve the female one, but it stopped eating the Pokeblocks. So now I'm trying to hatch 2 of the six eggs...

 Well, I'm pretty sure that's all I was gonna say, so talk to ya laterz (aargh! I'm turning into everyone I know!!) Oh and Yahoo Messenger's being a pain and closing on me so it can go screw itself for all I care. You wanna talk to me, PM me, comment, or get on AIM. (aim sn hampotter211)
