LAST UPDATED :: 13th November 2008
And, I'm back again! Cut a long story short? I dropped the NEW computer too...and had to send that away. (You'd think I didn't look after my bloody stuff!) Three new wallpapers in the RECENT ARTWORK section!
And a new video up at YouTube - a Buffy Summers/Sam Winchester Video, made and edited by meeee. The clips and the song don't belong to me, of course, but... I did edit it. And I'm quite proud. :)
Buffy/Sam - Breath :: You Tube.
And the fanart to go with it.
:) :) :) :) :)

New wallpapers. One Buffy one ala S4 - College Girl. Featuring Buffy/Riley and a host of images. One Cordelia/Angel one featuring lyrics from an EE Cummings poem. =)

A whole month and a bit between updates? I am shameful. In my defence, I've been working lots so I haven't had much time to open PS. Boo-hiss. :p Only one new wallpaper this update. A Sam/Buffy one located in the X-Over section and the recent artwork section.

Am apparently a layout-making machine atm. Have one uploaded now and another in the works. =) Just finished uploading a new layout at my Cordelia Chase/Dean Winchester fan-site, The Weakness in Me. Enjoy! =)
Added two new affiliates, too! The lovely Kathy at Silver Glass and the equally lovely Josh at Kissing Daylight. :) Am welcoming them to the (slightly nutty) family and telling all my thousands of visitors (I just don't do modest, sorry, LOL) to go visit! :)

New layouttish. Keeping with the theme ala the last
one and the fantastic JJ's decorations coding...just a
different header, reflecting my love for the movie 'Honey'. =) I've seen this film a million times (thanks to el Nieces,
lol) but I found
some HiRes pictures and the layout was born.
HAPPY SPRING, EVERYBODY.

Well, I guess it was a long time coming but I've cleaned up my site. I've removed links to sites that hadn't been updated in forever. The only one's I kept - and they were more for nostalgia sake than anything else - were my old icon/wallpaper sites. It's strange! Liberating, in fact, LOL.
My FanFiction site has been updated with a new layout - yay! - and it was about time too. I added new chapters to multi-part fics and some of the things I've written the last couple of years that I was more proud of than anything else, LOL. And that's it really. No art. For which I suck. But I've had a clean out, which is clearly important. :)

No new wallpapers or anything but I do have a lovely new affiliate. Kimberly of 'Viva La Revolution' who makes gorgeous and art and layouts. Welcome to my small (yet mental) affiliate-family! :D
16th April 2008
New wallpaper. Again. Made for a BuffyWorld Forums challenge featuring Cordelia Chase from the BTVS S1 episode 'Out of Mind, Out of Sight'. :)
Check in the 'Challenge Pieces' section! :D
14th April 2008
One new wallpaper - new crossover, SPN-wise in that it's not Cordy with Dean now. It's... *breathes* Buffy. Yes, I know. I'm a Cordy/Dean shipper, SHUSH. But this was too pretty NOT to make. Especially when I saw some of the beautiful manips/art over at Dana's site Chosen Art.
Go look and leave her feedback because hers are way WAY more awesome than mine. (No, I still can't do manips very well, LOL. Mine are more like... Blends for beginners, no? *G*)
Thanks to Marilyne, May, Katie and Elwyhen for the lovely tags since my return as well! :D *love to you all*
30th March, 2008
New Cordelia/Dean-ish wallpaper in the Crossover Piece section. I'm actually quite proud of this, even though it came out NOTHING like I imagined it would, LOL.
I owe a few of my friends some long overdue things so I'll be working on those and attempting to update this site in the mean-time, so keep checking back for updates and such. :)
March 7th 2008
I'm back!!! After a long, long long period of being away *cries* I have now returned, layout-whore.COM-netless...but layout-whore.NET-netted up! Yup, I bought layout-whore.net to save me from mourning too much about the other site... y'know, the one that was apparently snaffled by a PORN place. *shudders* Art will come from me! :)
September 25th, 2007
New page in the Artwork section called 'Challenge Pieces'. This is where I post art made for challenge pieces and waffle at great length about what it was I tried to accomplish. ;)
I've changed the navigation a little, to make it easier to get around my site. Siteinfo would be where you'd find all my gorgeous affiliates, along with a few other random stuff.
I have two new affiliates! *dances* :) The lovely Ehlwyen of 'Quicksand' and the equally lovely (and tolerant of a Spammy!C on her tagboard) Marilyne of 'Shadow of the Day'. Click and go visit - they both have gorgeous art. ;)
Thanks to Ehlwyen, Marilyne, Katie, Line & Cali for the tags! :)
September 20th 2007
Lorne wallpaper in the Recent Artwork/Angel section. Inspired by a challenge at the Buffyworld forums of which I am a lurker. :)
September 11th 2007
Busy with work so the updates are lacking for me. =/ I redesigned my other domain (beyond-help) out of which was made a Cordelia/Angel wallpaper. :) Someone asked me on a message board if I never got bored of making C/A centric art. Uhm, no. LOL.
Check the 'recent' artwork pages for the layout-inspired-wallpaper! :) Hopefully I should be back with news of icon updates and such. Until then you can find me at:

Looong time, no update. Two new art pieces to speak of. One wallscroll - yes, I really attempted one - and a new wallpaper. The Wallscroll was semi-frustrating because I had to match all the images up myself...and then I found there was a completely easier way to do it. *G* The word 'duh' comes to mind.
And another wallpaper, C/A, of course. Check the 'artwork' pages! :) Hope y'all are well!
July 2nd, 2007
Back from family holiday with Sister and Kiddies with a new wallpaper from Supernatural. Am getting rather into my wallpapers lately, so I am. =) No new affiliates to speak of. Am considering putting Beyond-Help on Hiatus until I can think of something to do with the damn thing. =/ Ideas, anyone?
I love my site but it's mostly used as a dumping ground and I'd like it to have something else there!
June 27th, 2007
Added one new piece of art ( Cordelia/Angel :: Your Love Carries Me ) and a new affiliate, the lovely Katie from Midnight Tears. =)

This site has undergone a pretty major overhaul in recent, er, days. I've removed a couple of sites that haven't been updated in a while, updated my Joined page and stuff...but the absolute best thing about it is this fabulous new layout, created and coded in full by the equally fabulous JJ @ More Adventurous.
See all the pretty links at the side, the pretty patterns, the div layers, the way the links move (*gushes a little - hee!*)? That's her doing, I just created the header for I am too lazy (and definitely not talented enough, LOL) to create something like this. *G*
You may also have noticed that I'm hosting my fanart here now. This, mostly, is an effort to get me to update my sites a bit more, instead of being lazy and just using my LiveJournal. :p
