Art New banner -- also a request

[Syk3]

Yes, yes, another banner so soon. As I was saying, it was another request, but this time from OB; I'm sure she'll come and reveal herself shortly. ~_^

The banner was done completely in black and white, which is hard to accomplish, and was created in accordance to what the person requested. Comments and critique are welcome, as are suggestions on inproving it of which the requester will take into consideration before I go about changing the banner. So without further [color=teal]adieu* (thanks)[/color], I present you with another one of my banners..

Oooh. Very well done, Syk, lol.
I wonder who this person could be, lol ^.~
*wonders if anyone'll guess correctly*

Anyway, I like the way you laid it out, Syk. Not a lot of empty space gaps, and it seems.. balanced, if you know what I mean.[/b]

What are the things in the circle? I forgot what they're supposed to be, and I can't make them out properly >.>[/size]

They're supposed to be two cats, a white and a black one. The banner may have looked better without the circle, but she wanted it, so nyeh.

Ooh very nice. It is not centered, but that's a good thing. It seems like it is centered, sort of, yet at the same time... *brain hurts* I'm confusing myself.

Puffy Amiyumi is a music group, correct? X_X I don't know American music, and now I've discovered the horrible truth that I don't know Japanese music much either!! NO!!

Hm.. In black and white, the little cats are hard to recognize.. (I didn't know they were cats until ya posted stating that, Syk) IMO, it looks like a panther attacking a baby human.. (I need a psychiatrist)

As always, Syk, great work.

But who am I to critique? I don't even have a photo editing program. -_-

[color=#9933ff]DOMO ARIGATO GOSAIMASU! ^_^ You are THE master at banners, man!

Geeze, I'm surprised no one could tell the banner was for me. I mean, really. It's been in my sig since this topic was firt put up yesterday. lol.

Anyways, it's entirely my fault about the back and white. I asked for him to use this certain image of the CD cover, which was in black and white. So everything else had to be that way. Greg is SO awesome!!!

For any of you who have no idea who the he-[i]eeack[/i], yeah, that's it, [i]heck[/i] I mean [i]heck[/i], the people on the banner are, they're Ami and Yumi, from the duo, Puffy. Or in the US, Puffy AmiYumi, since when they got here, P. Diddy held that title. And he changed his name anyway. Stupid artist made them chagne their name, and he THEN changes him own. Baka! -.- As Michael Hill said, "Go figure."

So anyways, I picked up their CD in NYC, with the help of a really nice friend. ^_^ They have a new CD, [i]Nice.[/i] coming out August 12th, so I asked Syk if he could make me this banner, as I wait for the CD release. How I'm going to find it beats me, but that's cool. He obliged to do this, and this is the totally awesome result of the phenomenon(s) called Syk (and Puffy, too).

Puffy AmiYumi is a really great team, but you have to be willing to put up with Japanese lyrics being sung, and you have to sort of like oldies, and odd stuff. I mean, they've got Beatles type rock on here, Brasilian samba, Go-Gos like pop-punk, and some disco stuff in here too. So if you're opened minded about that, adn the language, you'll like the CD. It's really cool.

Anyways, back to the banner, there isn't anything better that I could ask for, since I actually did ask syk to change it once before, and he was SO nice about it. ^__^

As for the little bubble in the corner, that's what I asked for. I was so cruel to syk (who ACTUALLY put up with me. o_O WOW.), but he black and whited the picture, shrunk it, and put it in the corner over there. The original image is at [url] [url]http://www.sonymusic.co.jp/MoreInfo/Chekila/Rodney/t_bunny/img/main_p.gif[/url][/url]. Thunder Bunny is for Ami and Wonder Mew is for Yumi. They're SO cute. So I had to put them in. Thankies for putting up with that, Syk. You're SO patient. ^^

So anyways, yeah. The banner is totally awesome, as it's already in my siggy. You are THE best, syk! *huggles him but lets go rather quickly before Mei whacks her with a large object* It was a friendly huggle, I swear! But thank you SO SO SO SO SO much, Greg. ^___________^[/color]

[Syk3]

Hehe, as I told you before, you were too kind in your last post.

So yeah, the updated banner. Today is August 12th, and here it is, as promised. ^_^

[size=1]Did I mention how jealous I am of Roxie? I always beg you for banners, and you just make her one because she [i]asked[/i]?! What's up with that, man.

It's black and white, so I instantly love it. The music group seems pretty interesting, too. I'll have to check them out next time I'm in Tokyo... yeah.

That's an awesome banner! It's really well done. BTW, it's spelled adieu ^-^.

[Roxie Faye]

[color=#9933ff]Yes, thanks again, for the updated banner (NOT BANANA!!!). lol. Ish cool.

To Shy, well, you'll have to talk to Syk3 about the banner issue, but you can buy their CD here in the US. I've found their CDs at the local Borders Books and Music store. I plan to buy the CD tomorrow at this huge mall near Boston (b/c I'm on vaca. there right now).[/color]
