About the skin
Hello Everyone!!!

Seconds are ticking away like no one's business, and soon, we will be welcoming a brand new year in matter of days! It's time to sum up this Seasons Series project by submitting this last work, Winter.

A very versatile skin which you can use not only during Christmas, but also anytime of the year. And because this skin elucidate joy and a burst of energy which has a cooler colour tone, this skin is not restricted to only certain occasions. Colour theme is something for you to contemplate about, no colour in the skin portrays joy, yet you'd probably not sense a feeling of despondency. Some contrast it is.

An ideal skin for everyone to use anytime. A jubilant fake-vector against a lonesome winter scene, what a sui generis combination. (LOL, i can't act chim for nuts, so yea, i am sui generis)

This is more of a digital-art-turned-into-blogskins work. Yet another, 100% self-made. A thorough breakthrough finally! Alot of effort made okay!!!??

T'is the season to be jolly, let's enjoy this Christmas and make the best out of the holiday season. Go donate to salvation army, bake cookies for your friends or something.

OR,

I need something off my wishlist please, so someone, get me what I want for christmas. LOL. Yay!!~

Additional Note
Please,
-change the fonts according to what you desire.

(PLEASE!)
-do not remove my credits from my skin, please appreciate the effort I've put in for the skin. Thank you!
-enjoy my skin and have a fantabulous day!

Seasons Series// Autumn [Kuku] (Blogger Main)

[Edit]
Resubmitted

PS/ OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG BLOGSKINS PREVIEW IS NOT WORKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NEVERMIND! Please view the exact skin at http://gingganggooligooli.blogspot.com
[/Edit]

At last, I am launching the next skin of the series.

Autumn
About the skin
I spent almost 2 week completing this design (painting the fake vector and designing the whole skin)and the most vexing part was

the colour combination and also to incorporate the autumn theme to the fake-vector. (Yes, not the other way round... I'm weird, ha!)

Nothing seemed right and and I wanted a break through. Sigh, what a hassle!

As you can see, I combined ruffled curls with the sharp maple edges. And from many areas of the design, you can spot my usual

style of combining elegance to rigidness. I believe that one can sense the stark contrasts in my skin.

And my first attempt to assimilate foreign resources to my skin after a very very very long time. Ha! But I am really satisfied with

the outcome!

The transition of the seasons; how much have you seen?
四季的变化，你又看过了多少？

Penned proudly by my very very best pal, Wang Guan (Li0nheart) and I wish to dedicate this skin to him.

Remember my friend, it's not the wind that detached the leaves off from the tree, nor is it the tree that has forsaken the latter. It's

time the leaves have to return to the warm embrace of the earth, return to where they hail from, while waiting for spring to arrive.

Same goes for all of my friends in blogskins. Never let your determination waver and your courage wane. Think about the

sweetness you may yield after every ordeals of your lives.

You may noticed that I embedded a song to this skin. "Stay" by John Hoon. Ha, please use Quick Time to listen to the embedded

song. If you dislike this song, please remove the song code from the codings of the whole skin. Thank you!

Why the song, you asked. I wanted to bring out the full melancholic effect of Autumn. So yea, please enjoy the song.

Yay! I think I've spoken enough.

About This Series
This skin is part of the Seasons Series which I am going to put forth. This series of skins which I made/ am making fits inline with

the theme: The 4 Seasons. So you can expect 4 different types of skins that attributes the 4 Seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn,

I will release these 4 skins, one by one, so please check back often for this series of skins ya?

Additional Note
Please,
-change the fonts according to what you desire.
-upload the pictures in your OWN photobucket/tinypic server.
(PLEASE!)

Seasons Series// Summer [Kuku] (Blogger Main)

nobody@blogskins.com () — Sat, 11 Nov 2006 05:19:39 -0600

Hello! A recent commotion here had unveiled the perilous and fugly side of many blogskinners. How people turned their backs towards one another, and churned out unhappy pasts just to get even with each other.

Unhappy commotions aside, I think blogskins has turned into a ground not only for showcasing designing talents, it has also grown to be a view exchanging platform, whereby people of different entities get together and exchange their opinions. Harsh opinions or not, I think my friends in blogskins have outgrown juvenility and proceeded on to the next phase of their lives. Ofcourse, friendship has also mounted a huge step forward (or backward).

Let's all take things in our stride and make a difference in the lives of the people who deserve more of our attention.

Oh, back to business, I think it's time I launch this second skin of the series;

Summer

I hereby dedicate this skin to xragdollx, QUEEN-RACH! my ha0 jiiemuiix. She rocks totally lah. To think that our friendship have grown from a dispute in the forum! Haha!

We used to exchange fires online too... but we are all happy people now. This shows that friendship can also emerge from "Wars" when disagreements are eventually sorted out. Chinese saying, Bu4 Da3 Bu4 Xiang1 Shi2, Haha... very spot on can! So now, those who are involved in the "war", my advice is, attempt to know and befriend your "opponent", though chances of not fighting again is slim, you can manage to accept others with a open heart.

OMG, i luurbe` moii muiimuiix.

Hahaaaa....

Seasons Series// Spring [Kuku] (Blogger Main)

nobody@blogskins.com () — Sat, 23 Sep 2006 04:04:32 -0500

HELLO! Gosh, it's been so long since my last skin submission!

Haha, major exams are going to take their tolls in my life... and although I seem so busy and occupied, I'm enjoying it. In the midst of getting ready for my exams, I have created this skin out of boredom and fun. Heh =D

Now it's the exams period and it looks like everyone's mugging real hard. Good luck peeps! FIGHTING, WANG GUAN! FIGHTING, ANNE! FIGHTING, BLOGSKINNERS!

Lol, pardon my long and irrevelant message above. XD

About This Skin
What an ardent fan of fake-vector art I am! This skin features the Sakura flower which are painstakingly drawn by me in photoshop. I daresay that this piece of work is 100% created by my own resources. And I am proud of myself. Are you? Heh, :D

I adopted gradient coloring in this skin and I really enjoy the colors.

This skin portrays undying hope and passion. Hope springs eternal. Need a meaning for your blog? CHOOSE MY SKIN LAH!

Make it thru' the rain. [KK] (Blogger Main)

nobody@blogskins.com () — Mon, 10 Jul 2006 15:33:57 -0500

If you think you've seen this before... yes, I resubmitted.

Through the rain

And if you keep falling down don't you dare give in
You will arise safe and sound, so keep pressing on steadfastly
And you'll find what you need to prevail
What you say is

"I can make it through the rain
I can stand up once again on my own
And I know that I'm strong enough to mend
And everytime I feel afraid I hold tighter to my faith
And I live one more day and I'll make it through the rain"

About
A lyric-based/ abstract imagination layout. Through the rain; a wonderful piece of song by Mariah Carey.

Deeply moved by it's simple lyrics with a heartfelt meaning, I created a skin featuring the idea of a steadfast will when one is trapped in times of difficulty. *EMO EMO EMO EMO*

Color scheme used is to bring forward the loneliness and desolation that surround when one is yearning for a helping hand.

Once again, it's a endless divider-layers skin.

Additional Notes
Hi everyone, after making a failure animal skin which has like 5 download counts, I decided to be back with another skin which I think is one of the bests. *Prays*

I've turned into an emo freak, too bad, you have to use more of my emotional skins in the future. Hahaaa... Happenings in school have not been pleasant. Sigh.. lol :D.

Personal Configuration
Please configure your tagboard size to a suitable tagbox resolution: Width 150 x Height 210.

And bear in mind that any pictures posted in your blog entries must be resized to width lesser than 280, otherwise, skin would be screwed up pretty badly. LOL.

Please read this before downloading, thanks!

PS/ I am open to PAID designing requests, please email me at erikku.k@gmail.com for more details.

Esophoria [Kuku] (Blogger Main)

nobody@blogskins.com () — Sat, 10 Jun 2006 02:20:59 -0500

Update: Tweak the code, changed the directory of the images, please re-download this skin for use! Thanks!

---

About
Features an abstract- floral digital artwork drawn by me in photoshop. This layout is appropriate for all genders. The grandiose design is laid freely on a simple canvas and they complement each other pretty well. The sudden gradient change is applied to create one contrasting element. I created a 3D effect on the vines and they seem to jut out of the yellow canvas.

Why the name? The design, as you can see, is abstract and it gives a double-vision feel, therefore, Esophoria, a tendency to squint your eyes inward to create a double vision. LOL.

Additional Note
Hi people! I am back into business. How's this layout? 90% of this layout is done by me, and minimal brushes are used. I am so glad that this turned out pretty well. I am so effing proud of myself, hail me. XD.

It's gonna be a long time again, I design another skin. So farewell people!

PS/ Upload the images in your own server, thank you and enjoy!

PS2/ Try looking at my design while deviating your eyes inwards. You'll see something amazing. *winks*

It's all in the mess [Kuku] (Blogger Main)

nobody@blogskins.com () — Sat, 27 May 2006 07:04:21 -0500

Yes fuck it, I resubmitted.
Why?
1) Font sucks.
2) Some nice commentor gave me a 3.5 Star rating (I am not so cheap am I?)
3) I want this skin to hit the top 15 chart, so what?

So?
1) Changed the font
2) Allow people to continue rating from the beginning FAIRLY.
3) Resubmitted me skin.

BAH!
----------------

About:
This skin features a random model from Foto Decadent. My inspiration came from my lousy mood I had just before designing this. My emotion was running low and I really wished to gather myself. "It's all in the mess, I have to dive into it and gather them little by little,"

It's only mozilla firefox compatible. The skin is kindda screwed in internet explorer.

Additional note from designer:
Y'all! People, I am not leaving blogskins, it's just that I hate how people insulted my dignity and integrity by saying that in order for me to win Skin of the day, I resorted to cheating, by favourite-ing my own skins and my friends' (LEK) skins. Well, this is how people assume things when they think that my skins are of no substance to win the SOTD. It's a sin to express your views, it's a sin, babeh.

No, never will I leave and allow people to gloat, I am teh ultimate survivorrrr.

-enough of shit-

ENJOY LUH PEOPLE!

Yes it's pink.

I give you... Grunge (Blogger Main)

nobody@blogskins.com () — Sat, 20 May 2006 01:53:10 -0500

Yet another flowery theme. This time, hibiscus. Haha! A little dirty element makes it appeals more to young peeps.

To create contrast to the dark grunges, vibrant flowers are drawn!! wee!

The flowers are vectored by me, and everything is done by me, except for the grunge brushes. Basically this skin has no distinct meaning, just a random skin after suffering from a period of serious blogskinners-block.

View, rate and enjoy my skin!!!

Yes, view the terms of download before downloading.

As I've found people ignoring my terms, I am pissed. I may not continue designing for blogskins, unless people can really keep to the basic protocol of downloading people's work, that is to keep the credits intact.

Once again, enjoy!

Till then!!!

Beyond Redemption (Blogger Main)

nobody@blogskins.com () — Mon, 08 May 2006 02:54:42 -0500

FOR MAXIMUM VIEWING PLEASURE, PLEASE PRESS F11 FOR FULL PREVIEW!

My bold attempt to procrastinate my revision, to create this skin for y'all, yea, I know I'm so dead for Mid Year exams. *Rolleyes*

Yea, another flowery theme, I just can't get over it, forgive me people. Yes, skin for the chicks and in betweens, guys are welcomed to use my skin as long as you are not seeking for attention. ^.<

The flowers are drawn and vectored by me, since October 2005. ^^" The format of this new skin is different from other designs; I'm using div layers, so you might have notice the slight change in the side bar as well as the alignment, heh, I wanted something different.

I did not want a transparent scroll bar because, since it's not applicable in mozilla, so what's the point? And transparent scrollbars give font problems, according to Mr. Wang Guan aka Li0nheart aka lionny. Lols.

Please do comment, rate and enjoy!

PS/ Same rules, no removal of credits/ watermark, no plagiarism, no editting of graphics/ coding without prior permission. Failure to comply to these terms? I will get angry and stop designing for this corrupted community. Okay, as though I am generalising, but well, I mean it.

PS2/ Maybe you can host the pictures in ur own server? I don't have a stable host.

PS3/ By rating anything lesser than 3, it reflects what kind of person you really are, so cheers!

PS4/ <333 Love you guys for the wonderful comments on the previous skins, you people made my week!

Untainted Enrapturement (Blogger Main)

nobody@blogskins.com () — Sat, 29 Apr 2006 03:55:20 -0500

Current skin features a digital artwork of mine I did 4 months ago. I can't seem to find a decent picture to fit into my garden-theme skin, hence the digital picture of a bunch of flowers, slapped right on the top of the layout. Bah...

I am not pleased with this one, because this skin was done hastily. But so what? It still looks nice... bleah, irony.

Some terms of download:

1.Don't steal any of the images, for I OWN COPYRIGHTS for the work, and I might send my bitches down to chew your genitalias if I find you infringing this term.

2.Please do not ~~tweak~~ butcher any of my codings/ images and claim them as the hardwork of yours. If you can't make something out of nothing yourself, kindly retreat from making blogskins and die.

3.If you're generous enough, kindly host the pictures in your own server, my bandwidth ain't unlimited.

4.Strictly no plaguarism. Kamikaze your cat ass if you dare copy my work. Copycat.

Thank you, enjoy my skins, please comment and rate my other skins too. >.~

Perfect Escapade (Blogger Main)

nobody@blogskins.com () — Fri, 28 Apr 2006 06:27:30 -0500

Ugh, save the niceties, I'm here to present my second layout.

It's been a long time, very long. Aptly put, I haven't got time to ~~screw~~ cook up a nice skin.

Not giving detailed art reports anymore... just look at the skin, imagine and bloody figure out the skin yourself, I'm tired of explaining.

I sound pissed, why, I AM PISSED.

bah...

Targetted downloaders= FEMALEs or any in betweens =D.

Get a frigging life, if you're a guy downloading this skin, stop seeking attention.

Certain rules to be abided:

Please allow me to tie you up and roll u beyond the yellow line at the MRT station, and wait for the train to ram your sorry arse, if I catch you ripping my images/ codings/ watever.

Please DO NOT remove the water mark and credits (link backs to resource sites etc). I believe you won't.
