Switch to firefox!
Today's new content
IE users may have already noticed the box telling why you should switch to firefox and how right above the updates (Firefox or Opera users won't see it!). If you didn't know it, IE is evil. It's a headache for designers because of the weird ways it shows our coding. Still, as most of the people uses IE, we should make our designs IE compatible.
I just love its features (the tabbed browsing is simply awesome). So, switch to Firefox, it's better and faster.
I received some layouts, but some of them didn't look good in Firefox... and others... well, they were too simple (don't get me wrong, simple is beautiful, but not that way) or simply didn't look awesome to me. So from all the layout submissions, only 2 were aded. Thanks a lot anyways for your submissions.
There's also another layout done by me: celestial-star.net's very first version. Some of you may still remember it.
A total of 50 avatars were added. Yes, that's a lot, but still all of them are gorgeous, thank you.
I had this great idea to add icon bases sorted by series and categories at the gallery... and I did it, so now you can get icon bases at the gallery for your avatars. The categories and series sorting options aren't still implemented, but it'll be done soon.
I wonder if the PNGs should be moved to the gallery too? hmmm...
Speaking of PNGs, they'll be processed soon, I didn't find the time to do it today.
Edit: I forgot to mention I have added a new brush set: flowing lines 2. I added information for the commercial use of our brush sets. Because of that, from now on, there will be only brush sets done by me at the site, sorry, but I think it's fair.
The Tales artbook, with images from Tales of Destiny and Tales of Eternia has been added to the gallery.

yep ff rulz, stopie.com
I love the new avatars. ^^ And the icon bases are an excellant idea! I'm going to have to check them out.
Whee! Update. =3 I was wondering where you went to. -runs to look at all the avatars and design- ^_^ I should submit more stuff, but yeah. ~.~; I fear I am not good enough and I fight with Fire Fox WAY to much. HA. XD -huggles-
IE never really gave me that much of a bad time. Most of the time I prefer IE more than Firefix because of the downloading issues. I have to admit, I do like the tabbed browsing, lol. I use Firefox only when I can't view something correctly on IE or when I'm testing my layouts. Like you said, making it compatible in all browsers. The icons you've just added are mighty lovely! I'm going to have to check those icon bases now. You must've worked hard on this update, it's so big. Nice job. Take care!
I just noticed the message and decided to listen to Melfina. =) Wow! So pretty...I like the avatar you're using right now for the update. Lovely brushes, too, Melfina!! =)
I actually prefer IE 'cause it won't give me such a hard time when coding, but since Firefox is with the html strict version, I guess I have to use it and it might work on all browsers.
YAY an update *looks to see if his avatars were submitted* oh... ok... i guess that mine wasn't that good neways.... but yay for update!!! I like the Avatar you have on at the moment btw!
IE is really evil! But my mom won't stop using it, so heh, we have both.
I guess it's not all bad, but Firefox is wayyyyyy better. :D
And woot for updates. :)
Nice idea about the icon bases. Woot! My layout is up!
I was there when you were putting that firefox thing up. I kept on refreshing the page, and the little box kept changing, hehe. At one point, some coding was showing, but it looks good now!
I may ask my dad for firefox. ^^
I love using firefox too..
but i have the problem of really low RAM at my dads house (where i am now) so i can't use firefox here. The computer won't even let me install it!
meaning i am stuck with IE if i like it are not
Can we submit bases? Because I probably have around 100 bases I could submit.
I've never had problems with my codings in I.E. vs. Firefox. I use I.E. and my co-owner uses Firefox, we do this so we can make all of our designs friendly in both browsers. The fact is, most people use I.E. because it comes with the computer and there really are no major problems with it as far as it being user friendly and all, so we try to be compatible to both. It would of course be easy if everyone had the same browser, but they don't, so we all just have to deal with it I guess.
Krazim: Still, don't give that for granted. Many of the layouts I code look good in Firefox and doesn't in IE... so I need to edit and apply tricks and "hacks"... it happens mostly with paddings and sizes.
Jess: Well, the thing is that unlike Firefox, IE doesn't follow coding standards... and it seems it still won't in newer versions -.-
lufiamanaelf: I don't see why not ^_^ I should make a form to submit them soon and add a link to the maker's profile on each base. Do send them to me to celestial.star.designs(at)gmail.com in the meanwhile and I'll add them.
Cool new layouts ^^
You can still get the tab feature on IE via Yahoo! Toolbar. D: And the coding still works. Actually I have a harder time coding with Firefox browser then IE. I don't see where that problem comes in. -shrugs- But whatever. It's still pretty. ^^
Yes... Fire Fox is better than Internet Explorer. ^^
*stubbornly likes Opera better than both of them* It has coloured scrollbars! Anyway, new stuff to look at! *scampers off happily*
I perfer Firefox over IE because both of them have advantages and disadvantages :)
Wahh I saw your site and stuff on a cd from advanced photoshop ^.^ The magazine. Well, it was on a disk
Great Updates. You did'nt mentioned the tutorial I sumited :( . Oh well.
WOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO!! Is happy cus i love the idea of icon bases!
Lots of updates. Yay. =D
All of it is so pretty. I wish I was near as good as these! =)
Tammy: Haha, yes, I got an e-mail from one of the people that run that magazine months ago, but never knew which magazine number they added them to and never saw it. If you could make a screenshot of it or something I would really appreciate it ^_^ I'd love to see it.
hp: Actually, yes, it was mentioned on a previous update, since I added it some time ago, lookie here:

Thanks a lot again btw for submitting that tutorial, it's awesome.

isnt this your brush? if its your account who post it then nvm ^^
I think that person says that he used a particular font to make those brushes, animegurl. I don't think he copied them. It's just that they are similar. ^^
Yes, I did them from a dingbat font too, so it's not that this person copied it or anything ^_^ Thanks a lot anyways.
I was just thinking, why not also have a signiture base as well as an avatar base... Newaya, Just a thought. ^^
Haha, I noticed that button too, it showed the first time I used FF, but then once I refreshed it disappeared.
With that in mind, I don't like IE at all. And since Microsoft's sad that way, mirroring what ff already has will make ie7 better? *grin* I might be speaking out of proportion, but from what I've heard it's an ff rip off that'll be 'much better'
I use both browsers.... Use MyIE most of times...
I love Firefox and IE. Mostly FF though. And it's twice the fun if you full screen it xD
Spifflicious update ;D
No problem Melfina. Sorry it was my fault that I did'nt noticed :(.
I just wanted to say that if you download the latest version of IE (which is still in beta, but works fine) from the Microsoft website, they've added in tabbed browsing and it works almost like Firefox. But I only use Firefox, and there's this great extension that lets you open a page in IE in one of your Firefox tabs. It's great for testing your website layouts ^_^.
I use IE, and though I'm not a designer I still know how much of a pain it can be. xP
I've always use FireFox to open other sites. but then when I found weird looking sites I try check in IE and I'm like Oooooohhh. No wonder. = =" It's very enbaracing when your site looks weird in FireFox. XD I love all the new Avatars the great! and Buhahaha I love the new Brush too~! >.< Awsome addition to my Fav brushes.
Have a nice day~! ^ ^/
Wow, all of the avatars are amazing. And I love the new brush set! Mind if I use it? =P
I want firefox, but i´m waiting until my dad buys me a new computer. *i think it will be the next year* and I will fill all the computer with the best software... *=3*
*love the avatars xD*
