Open Revamp!

So here is the deal. Deadly Nightshade is going to change big time. I'm not all about graphic designing anymore. I am still really into it but, I'm also into other things as well. Deadly Nightshade's name will stay. I am going to go on a open revamp. I plan to make a new site layout for D.N. as well. Now, I know that since D.N. is going to change some affiliates might drop me. I understand because here is what is on my to do list.

Make new site template

Clean out all designs

Add more interactive features such as guess the character, and a chat room

Update the affiliations page

Merge my site Whatever Julia with this one

Start blogging here as well as graphic designing

Add PNGs, icon textures, bigger wallpaper sizes, more icon bases, more templates, buttons, banners, more signatures, more large textures, and lots more

Re-organize the site navigation

A lot of other things I feel that I want to be done

Thus, please email me if you would still like to be an affiliate. Link Exchanges, please email me as well if you want to be linked here. I will still answer my emails. So you can still apply for affiliation, join the Two Worlds Design Contest, and etc. I won't be late replying to them either. This revamp is going to take me a while. So, for a month or two, perhaps more, no graphic updates. I will update the site if I receive a new affiliate, link exchanges, or contest entries though. Sorry about this. Another thing... the Two Worlds Contest deadline to join is extended until the revamp is over. Well, until the revamp is over (or you happen to email me) TTYL!

Changed Again...

So... what do you think of the new site template? I couldn't stand the last one. At first I thought it was great but, I took another look and thought to myself "Anyone could do this..." This template features Akito from Fruits Basket. Deadly Nightshade is still tableless. I figured out how to overlay content without tables or absolute positioning with dividers. I have to say this template goes with the site name very well! In other news... I'm still in the process of validating all of the site's templates. Well, here are the small updates for today.

Four new Anime Icons

Restarted the Extreme Tracker

Changed the site template

Brand New Look

  Deadly Nightshade is back with a brand new look! I hope you all missed me. Well, I have done a total re-vamp of the site while I was on hiatus. I have deleted all of the transparent PNGs because I'm not very good at making them. I deleted all of the Bleach screen shots because of lack of quality. I have pruned every single design in this site. Layouts are now called website templates if you are wondering where those went. I believe that is the most correct term for them. This site is now 100% tableless. I'm very proud of myself for pulling that off.
  In other news, I have one new affiliate to introduce to you all. She applied and became accepted as an affiliate right before the hiatus. Please welcome Rezina from Avia! Make her feel welcome, pay her a visit.
  The July S.O.T.M contest is now over! The winner is Manhattan Love Song! I will send out the participation award to all the participants very soon. So be on the look out for it. Well, here is the complete list updates for Deadly Nightshade.

21 new Icon Bases (14 Anime, 6 Game, 1 Cosplay)

Updated the F.A.Q.'s

One new affiliate

New site layout

Transparent PNGs, Bleach anime screen shots deleted

Re-wrote the Introduction on this page

Re-arranged the site navigation

You can no longer apply to win an award

Re-coded entire site

SOTM for July is over. I'm now accepting participants for August.

Received a 2nd Place award

Here is a list of things that will be done:

Validate all CSS and HTML for all of the templates
