Hello Dieu :)

I'm thrilled to see your application, you have some nice work. I love the last banner and your fashion and stock icons. Perhaps you could experiment with textures?

I'm so flattered that you love us here at uvi!

I would love for you to join our team.

First, I would like you to post four samples as a comment at the makers sample post.
I will then make a post introducing you to the community.

Familiarize yourself with the tagging system. It's pretty self explanatory, and when you post please add the makers tag of '&deiu_deiu'. There are already a crapload of tags and you can see them here: http://community.livejournal.com/ultravioleticon/tag/

The other mods are samiam1023 and .

Check your community invites, I sent you an invite to be a posting member of UVI. Also please join ultra_makers to keep updated with the members of the community.

You're kidding me. o_O
I'm SO hipper-ventilating right now !! Thanks much, I'm extremely happy that you like my work and that I got accepted, it's such a great honour to be part of such a wonderful team.

Oh , believe me .. I'm familiarized with everything. ;] I read the rules a couple of times, the tagging system, the crediting, etc. really well before applying. I wanted to be prepared, just in case. :]

About the textures, you are perfectly right, and I'm so happy that you'd like to see how I deal with them also, because I plan on trying new and, in my opinion, gorgeous colourization and texturing as soon as I possibly can.

Again, thank you, and I hope I won't let you guys down. :]

p.s. : Yes, I have posted 2 identical banners ( the last two ) like the stupid cow that I am. My only excuse is that it was about 3:30 a.m. when I posted the application and I was tired and.. right.. Still a cow. *lol*

Oh gosh, wow! You're too cute!

I can't believe you went about and read the rules and stuff. And a couple times, lmao.

Lol, it's okay i noticed and I didn't care, I do silly stuff at that time too. Don't put yourself down!

Bonjour! Je m'appelle Jillian.
I speak a wee bit of french :|

I really love your coloring and texture use, I can't even tell you which icon is my favorite.
I would love for you to join us here, if you're still interested.
Your stuff is beautiful. I love that lily donaldson banner. that editorial was so ridiculous but hilarious.
You will be interested in crossposting your posts so they get some attention? That would be lovely :)

First, if you can, leave four of your favorite icons as a comment at the makers samples thread. I will use those also to introduce you to the community.

Please familiarize yourself with the tagging system. You can see the mess of existing tags here.
Whenever you post be sure to add the tag '&sunset_lights' That will be your maker tag :)
