OH HAY LOOK it's that thing I wrote for hakkais_shadow at potcrackxchange . It's still ALIVE. :D /shot.

Title: IM~PE~TUS (alternatively, “i’ll make you crazy before you cry”)
Pairing: Niou/Oshitari.
Rated: PG-15~R (swearing, non-descriptive sex…and packaged condoms)
Summary: The one where Yuushi’s batshit crazy enough to name a toilet and Niou gets turned on by Yuushi’s crap, in a much more literal sense. Generous abuse of Royal/AtoYuu and uh…condoms (RLY). 2588words.

I'm actually really disappointed at the 0% turnout for dgray_exchange's layout contest.

We have icons made by ashoakandthorn but that's it. They are, btw, amazing. ♥

So now, before I start the sign up for the winter exchange, I'd like to know who's interested. Because it'd be sad if I get hyped up for an exchange when no one decides to participate.


And if no one does show interest, I guess that means the comm is a dead thing.

Heya guys. I colored a panel from latest DGM chapter. It features Kanda, of course. Last chapter is full of Kanda eye candy. Gonna be coloring more soon.

Beware the spoilers

Aaaand because of that I leave no preview this time =/

Throw down your sword, come out of your chamber

Just thought I'd offer this up, and since the community is so active with such diverse posts, hopefully it's allowed. I made a Beatrix Fanmix. Check it out, if you're into that kinda thing.

Notes augmented

We've enhanced and de-bugged Notes. If you haven't tried it yet, now's the time! You can create a private note when you ban multiple users. You can also delete multiple notes at once. Lastly, paid users have the option to add a note (visible only to you) whenever you add or remove a friend (guaranteed to avoid embarrassing social mishaps). If you don't currently have a paid account, you can upgrade now! It only takes a few minutes and costs less than a bad shopping mall haircut (plus, it's way more fashionable)!

Product tweaks and bug kill

1. In another effort to zap spam, comments containing links from domains LiveJournal deems untrustworthy are now automatically screened
2. If you sign up to get notifications of the Writer's Block question of the day, you'll now see the daily question in the email notification, so you'll have a little extra time to ponder before you post. You can subscribe to Writers Block notifications here
3. The issue causing random comments to vanish has been fixed!
4. If you visit a LiveJournal page and get prompted to log in, you'll be returned to the same page after you sign in (Thanks, Dreamwidth)!
5. If you don't edit the timestamp for an entry at all, the entry timestamp will indicate the time the entry was posted instead of the time the Update Journal page was loaded
6. Comments with paddings/backgrounds render correctly within the comment box (and will no longer wrap outside the box and break frames/margins)

New FCK fixes rich text editor!

1. We've updated our RTE (Rich Text Editor) to FCKeditor version 2.6.5
2. When switching from the RTE to HTML editor, links for syndicated feeds are no longer broken
3. RTE now functions properly in Safari 4.0
4. An extra line/space will not be auto-inserted whenever you switch from RTE to HTML editor
5. The insert image link now works correctly in all browsers

LiveJournal Cares

We’re pleased to introduce you to lj_cares, a new LiveJournal community dedicated to raising awareness and funds for U.S. charitable organizations that improve the health and well-being of people around the world. Each month, we’ll spotlight a nonprofit that is making a significant global impact through medical research, public outreach, and/or humanitarian social programs. Charities will be selected in accordance with the U.S. calendar of national health observances based on a high rating (of over 60%) on Charity Navigator and global scope of impact.

In this, our inaugural month of November, we will celebrate national adoption month by offering a charitable virtual gift (priced at $2.99) to support Love Without Boundaries, an organization that saves the lives of orphans with life-threatening diseases and places them in loving homes around the world. LiveJournal will donate 100% of the proceeds from the sale of charitable vgifts (we'll cover the cost of credit card transaction fees). To learn more about Love Without Boundaries, please visit lj_cares and read about how they helped save Baby Kang and the Rainbow Twins from fatal illnesses, who are now thriving in nurturing families. You can purchase your Love Without Boundaries gifts in the Virtual Gift shop.

Papered in postcards

A couple of weeks ago, we asked you to send in postcards to surround us with LiveJournal community. Thanks for coming through! We've received postcards all the way from Germany, Finland, and Canada and from all over the US, including Texas, Florida, Alaska, Montana, Wyoming, Indiana, Hawaii, and Oklahoma just to name just a handful. We're thrilled with our improved decor.

Please keep the love coming for one more week by writing to Frank the Goat, Esq., c/o LiveJournal, Inc., 539 Bryant Street, Suite 210, San Francisco, CA 94107. Be sure to include your username, since we'll be drawing the names of ten random contributors next Thursday to win paid account credits!

Photos of the week

We have more dazzling images posted by talented LiveJournal photographers from around the world. We're hoping to span the entire globe, so please continue posting and tagging. Of course, you can also sit back and enjoy the view at lj_photophile.

You can see a sample of this week's gorgeous photos and check out spotlight communities and awesome user content after the jump!

More translations from PairPuri vol 1, the latest Tenipuri fanbook based off of Shin Tenipuri~

Posting these in a batch to avoid spamming the community too much. :3 I'll wait until I finish several before posting again since I'm kind of finishing these faster than I thought I would.

Atobe and Sanada rival talk. A discussion between Atobe, Sanada, and Inoue.

Pimpin' out mah entry for potcrackxchange, oh yes~

Pairing: Tezuka/Ryou
Rating: G
Word Count: ~1500
Summary: It is a Monday when Tezuka finds the boy collapsed on his doorstep.
Notes: That was actually my first time writing Tezuka O_o But I hope I pulled him off alright~

“How can I miss something,” Kisarazu-kun replies after a long pause, “that I cannot remember in the first place?”

Teaser

 

Nine little regulars ^^

for the new d.gray man kink meme

Kink: Kanda in a girl's skinny jeans. (I don't care if there is a pairing or not but that nice ass has to go into a pair of tight jeans - preferably girl's jeans.)

A/N: This was entirely too much fun to write. Considering I had a crappy day, it made me feel much better. So hopefully it'll get some laughs? XD

Warning(s): Kanda in tight jeans, failed attempt at crack, foul language, and mentions of possible gayness, (though NO there aren't any pairings in this. )

On Saturday the 14th at 4AM UTC/GMT we will be upgrading the operating system of our network load balancers to a newer version, one that will allow us to use both CPUs! Nifty, because multiprocessing is nice.

Since we have 2 load balancers, the plan is to upgrade 1 at a time, and there really should be very little impact to our website. Hopefully you won't notice a thing and I'll get to go back to the hotel and watch some wonderful late night infomercials.

We've got a lot of exciting projects coming up for 2010 and we're hoping that we'll be able to deliver them all to you, that you will find it useful/cool/lovely and then you will use the site even more. Behind-the-scenes work like this will give us the capacity to handle the anticipated traffic, so expect a few more maintenance windows especially in the beginning of next year as we've got some neat ideas to improve performance around here! We had the recent 30-45 minute outage yesterday due to one of our logging databases filling up disk space -- not so great design coupled with my human error in handling the initial problem -- and it looks like we're going to finally have some resources to eliminate stuff like that. I can't wait!

As usual, I will be updating status.livejournal.org before and after, just in case you are not able to reach our main website during the work.

( more =) )

hope you like it ^^''

WIP. Mostly animated scenes from Bleach. Intended to be my 2nd version of my personal Bleach mood theme. MT2..because I'm a proscastinator it may take me a while to finish. Thought I'd post to let you guys have a look. free to use, for any reason be a mood theme or if you want to stick in anywhere in you page or profile ect. Batch 1.




here@rzrblade_petals

forgive me if this isn't allowed--i'll delete it if necessary, but this was driving me crazy and i thought perhaps the fandom at large could help. i was perusing icons and came across the work of the very talented mymorphine...and this particular icon:



does anyone know what that's from? it definitely looks like a canon panel, but i can't for the life of me place it or find it anywhere. anybody know? it's gonna bug me all friggin' night...

FOUND IT! thanks to those who commented!

[also, unrelated, but mods, it seems your photobucket account went inactive and now the profile's all borked. i hate that PB goes inactive if you don't access the account for 90 days; it's so stupid...]

(x35) Video game icons (final fantasy, chrono cross, harvest moon:ioh)
(x25) misc (animals, others)




here @ all_creation

At the bottom of every other page in PairPuri vol 1 are two lines that characters want to tell either Atobe, Sanada, or both. Even minor characters are included, like Urayama Shiita and Taki! I easily overlooked these lines at the bottom since they seem kind of periphery, but they're actually pretty amusing.

Translation over here~

I translated the table of contents for PairPuri too if anyone has a part they'd like to see translated more. :3
