I want a blog
soo bad! I need somewhere to rant and rave about my sucky life because according to my friends, I talk them to death. But to add a blog I would have to create a new site with a new layout and new content and yaddah yaddah yaddah. And most importantly, it would be taking time away from NQ Designs and I can already hear the outrage. But I tend to start blogging on this site, and NQD is certainly not the place to be blogging. You guys don't wanna hear about my boring life anyways, you just want free stuff. But I love to talk so you guys are just gonna have to deal with it. Muahaha. For instance, a friend sent me this bumber sticker on facebook the other day.
 According to her and everybody else, I take too long to tell stories about stuff that happen to me over the weekend and stuff like that. They say I ramble and go into detail about pointless stuff that are irrelative to the story and I take forever to get to the point. Whatever. I.. like... prologues, okay?! I try to tell them that prologues make the story better and they're like "well, you don't have to map out the whole scenary and the weather and the time of day and the humidity in the atmosphere and the name of the street you were walking on and the clothes you were wearing...." Haha okay maybe I can cut down on the prologues. That same friend also sent me this bumper sticker.

Mehehheh. I thought it was funny. And yes, I did read the rest of Twilight. It definitely got a lot better near the end but still, it's nowhere near Harry Potter's legacy. However I'm looking forward to the movie. I was very disappointed with all Harry Potter Movies, maybe this one will be better. I think they picked the perfect cast so that's a start.
Uh there I go again... BLOGGING. Let me shut up and get to the point... the updates.
4 New CSS Templates Alright, I have a confession. Remember when I said earlier that the templates where 100% X/HTML and CSS Validated. Well... I lied. *flinch*. They were 100% CSS Validated but maybe only 98% X/HTML. But now they are! So who cares what they were 5 days ago. You can check for yourself, they're 100% validated so don't bite my head off. Oh and there are 4 new ones so go ahead and take those off my hand.
2 New Transparent PNGs There's another Twilight PNG. Popular isn't it? And another War of Genesis PNG.

1 New CSS Tutorial The New CSS tutorial shows you How to change your text with CSS styles. I meant to add several others but then I suddenly got lazy and didn't. Eh, well it's better than nothing. I also noticed something very shocking. My CSS tutorial on How to Create Rollover Menus had a missing tag or piece of coding that made it virtually useless. I can't believe it! How long has this tutorial been up and nobody told me?! Like over a year. I must have overlooked it when I wrote it. I went ahead and fixed that, and while I was at it I went and also proofread most if not all my tutorials. I found so many grammar mistakes. Gosh I hate finding grammar mistakes especially right after a revamp. I thought I already took care of those during the last revamp. Guess not. I also fixed the PSP Fake Vector Tutorial since all the images in that tutorial were missing.
2 New Manga Samples I added the first volumes of Lovely Complex and Hana Kimi for sampling. I recently watched all the episodes of Lovely Complex in one sitting (That's 24 episodes people!). I couldn't stop, it was sooo good! It was actually really really funny, surprisingly. I can definitely relate. A tall girl and a short boy. I too have suffered the stigma of being the "tall girl". I'm 5'9' which isn't that big of a deal now that I'm 18 and all my close friends are tall too. It's above average but not freakishly tall. But I've been that tall since 11! Haha I'm so glad everybody else caught up... finally. Oh and about Hana Kimi, well I just added that one because and I needed to add another one to keep the numbers even. :P But I've heard good stuff about it so go read that too.
New Affiliate/Link Exhanges Hey everybody listen up, NQD has another new Affiliate, Nise of Flamboyant. She has a great site. See for yourself. And for the other's that have applied for affiliate positions that have yet to be contacted yet, I haven't completely ruled you out. I'm still in the process of reviewing applications so by the end of the month I'll be done so wait till then (at the latest) for my response. Oh and before I forget, there are also 3 new link exchanges: Aesthetic Designs, Quintessence, and Savoir Faire.

I am so tired.
I pulled an all-nighter last night? Why? To code this freakin layout that just didn't want to cooperate. Gosh I have no life. Lol. Well, I was invited to go clubbing last night and the night before that but for me to do that requires a well constructed plan to sweeten up my mom in order to convince her to let me sleep over a friend's house *wink wink*. The plan usually consists of me sucking up to her and cleaning the entire house. But have you seen my room?!?! Not worth it. It's a wreck in there. *Sigh* I'm 18 but I'm still treated like I'm 12. Well good thing I start college in 10 days!
2 New Premade Designs There are two new premades. The first, an iframe layout, was inspired by the Ed Hardy Brand. The second, a div layout, features art from Oh! Great. This layout gave me the most problems, but I'm glad I pulled through. I didn't want to give up on it last night because I was afraid I'd come back to it today and forget where I left off.

Expect a CSS Template of this design in the following couple of days, after I get some sleep.
4 New Transparent PNGs I also added 4 new transparent PNGs from the following: Oh! Great, War of Genesis, and Nana. Check them out.

New Affiliates I'd also like to point out that NQD has a new Affiliate, Sarah of Reminiscent-Designs. Be sure to check out her site, it's awesome! With that being said, I hope everyone is aware that the Affiliate and Link Exchange applications are open. I only have three more spots open for affiliation.
