More Random Stuffs

1. I bought new shoes for Germany seeing as how my sneakers were literally falling apart. I got a pair of comfy sneakers that I'm breaking in, and THE most comfortable pair of shoes I have ever had. They feel like slippers. Literally. I love them so much and I've had them for 24 hours. I bought them because I need something lighter than a ( Read more... )

Oh, very nice shoes! The style is so different.

That is awesome about going to Germany, and in - only a week! I love travelling; there's so many places I want to go! I'll miss you, but have tons of fun! :) Take pictures, for when you get back! I want to see, hehe!

You are sweet!

I am so excited. I guarantee I'll take loads of pictures, especially when I'm visiting castles and Rhine river villages!!

Hey, could you possibly make 2 icons for me? (yes, I'm calling out a favor *sheepish grin*)

The first one is this picture with the words "It's the old Cadel Evans coming back"

The second is this picture with as much of the bike as is possible and simply "Cadel '06" for a caption.

There are no Cadel Evans icons out there. :-( He's my favorite cyclist.
Whenever you get the time... that'd be grand. Thanks SO much in advance!

Yay! I can't to hear about your trip when you get back!

Of course I'll make those icons for you! I owe you especially after you gifted me with the paid account *bows eternally*

I'll work on them right now :)

thank you so much! I REALLY appreciate it.

I'll also probably ask for a cycling header/layout at some point, but I'm still debating which images I'd like to use... but just a heads up. I'll definitely ask for it before July, because that's the Tour de France. And I'm a cycling nut. Which you probably already know. *grin*

You're very welcome!

Sure, thanks for the heads up! Anytime, just give me the details of what you want when you're ready. And yes, I do know you're a cyling fan ;) Sadly I don't know much about the sport but I'm looking forward to making the layout/header for you!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!

You are MUCH awesomeness!! Thank you so much, they're great! YAY FOR CADEL ICONS!!!

That quote, "It's the old Cadel Evans coming back," is something he said after he had a tremendously good day in last year's Tour de France. He had been injured for a very long time, and people were surprised he had such a good day - they asked him if it was a new Cadel Evans coming out. That quote was his response. I love it. Then he broke down and started crying and thanking his family and girlfriend and friends for constantly supporting him and believing in him. It was so sweet... that's why I love him.

Aww, thank you *blush* I'm glad you like them! I'll keep him in mind for future icon batches ;)

That is very sweet! He seems like a very admirable man.

you are... too much. *squee*

He seems like a very admirable man.

He does. He married his girlfriend on a spur-of-the-moment decision last year - they'd been dating for a couple years - in a romantic ceremony in Italy. He has pictures on his website, and it looked SOOOO sweet. (of course, I can't figure out how to save the pictures because they're in flash media, otherwise I'd have you make an icon of that... grrr...) Cyclists are like any other professional athletes - there are some that are gits and some that are arrogant bastards and some that are nice, good people. He's one of the nice ones. He won a big race this year which makes me VERY happy.

Hehe, I'm not saying anymore... yet... *innocent smile*

That is so annoying with flash sites! I've had problems with that and using images and trailers from the FF: Advent Children site. The only other way I try is taking a screencap and using the image from that to make graphics. Sadly it's never as good quality as the original, but it's a way to cheat ;). That is SO sweet about him getting married, hehe, I'm such a romantic I love stories like that! Makes me all mushy lol.

Haha *is glomped*... EEEK!

No problem! It's harder and takes more time as you need to be at the page, take the screenshot, paste it into the graphic program, then start making the graphic - but meh. Sometimes it's worth it when there is no other way to get it! Like at JK Rowling's site, it's all flash so people take screenshots of the site instead.
