Har, I’ll go first! =D I feel like I stalk this site (but I kind of do).
Name: Megori
Age: 21
Owner of: Intoxicated Designs; Afterglow; Tetsunosuke.com; Zabimaru Network; Afterthoughts
Fandoms: Yaoi (and all things of that sort really); D.Gray-Man, Final Fantasy VII, Tales of the Abyss
Other Interests: Writing, reading, playing video games (on my PS2 or PSP only)
Looking For: Um…friends to share my love!
Contact Information: MSN: love4tkari@hotmail.com
Anything Else: Somehow or another, I feel like lately, I’ve had no time to do much of anything anymore. But, I still try to come online as much as I can and comment on the websites of people I admire and/or like. I try to be as open minded about everything as I can, but I can also be extremely stubborn at other times. It’s a hard struggle but heck, I love all my friends no matter what.
At this current moment, I’m working on getting my network site up and running and hopefully, redesigning my portfolio (although doubtful) as well as working on a separate site more geared toward a serious topic (prayer requests/listing and other Christian related subjects).
Mmm…there are multiple ways of contacting me, but the fastest way to get a hold of me is on MSN. However, since I’m kind of a nutcase sometimes (a lot of the time), you’ll have to introduce yourself to me first if you talk to me on MSN. Otherwise, I’m also reachable through email at megoriATgmailDOTcom.

Since I like the idea of meeting new people, I’d like to participate in this too!
Name: Beverts
Age: 21
Owner of: My Weblog, The Placid Soul Network
Fandoms: Blah, I have so many fandoms, but the main ones that are going on at the moment are: Host Club, Bleach, Naruto, and Soul Eater
Other Interests: I enjoy other anime/manga, and the classics like DBZ and Sailor Moon. I also love to read too. I have too many books to list though, but the ones at the top of my head now was, The GlassWrights Apprentice, The Circle Trilogy, Chronicles of Narnia, and The Banned of the Banished. Just to name a few. I also enjoy listening to music too. I love some slight heavy rock and normal rock, sometimes a bit of hip hop and pop hear and there, and I definately enjoy Jpop and Jrock too. Man I have so many interests. xD
Looking For: Uhm, I’m kind of confused on what to put here. .-.; Friends right? I still don’t get it, but ohkey. xD
Contact Information: sukinozomi[at]hotmail[dot]com - always on MSN, well not always, but most of the time. I usually keep it on anyways. bonbeverage[at]aol[dot]com - my AIM address, but I don’t use the chatroom anymore much although I use it a lot for my e-mail. I check it everyday…
Anything Else: Well, I’m actually really shy. When I first meet new people it’s kind of hard to open up sometimes. And sometimes I don’t talk to people much because I don’t have anything to say, or can’t think of what to say when wanting to talk. Other than that though I really do enjoy meeting new people, and making new friends. :3

I love the idea. =) Anywho:
Name: Ariane
Age: 16. Only just.
Owner of: Yoakemae/YM (Log) // Surrealle (”Expressite”). I also used to own winter-skies.net; now replaced by Surrealle.
Fandoms: Ionno, I’m not really a hardcore fan of anything. Perhaps some animanga, CSI (all three), House and various other TV programs.
Other Interests: Fansubbing, reading, cooking, composing, playwriting (comes with the GCSE Drama class I take.)
Looking For: Definitely people to get to know and befriend. Ways to improve my design skills, and my writing.
Contact Information: Email - carolxann[at]gmail.com (checked nearly everyday) | MSN - cynical.affection@gmail.com | Livejournal ID: arianex
Anything Else: If you haven’t noticed already, I’m a talkative lass. I probably have a bit of a “past” behind me in this…er, “community” of designers; but I’m looking to forget it now and get on with life.
Since I’m living in Malaysia but studying in an English boarding-school, I’m probably classified as a seasonally-active designer now - you’ll only see me on during the end-of-term holidays. This is due to the restrictions I have during term-time, facilities-wise; but I’ll spare you the details.
That said, when I’m actually “involved” in designing, it’s fun in its own right. I love challenges; which is why I enjoy taking on coding bugs - HTML or CSS. (Ironically, I rarely design layouts.) I’m probably not the best person with colours is when it comes to design; be it blending or vectoring or whatever the trend is currently. But it’s picking up skills and interacting with the people that makes it enjoyable.

Sounds interesting!
Name: Catherine
Age: 16
Owner of: Honet Lies and Paratears. Some fanlistings and stuff too. Used to own graphics site but closed it down.
Fandoms: Like Ari I’m not a hardcore fan of much…
Other Interests: …I like anime, manga, music (Japanese with some Korean and Chinese), reading, asian dramas, browsing the web, Japanese culture and language…and that’ probably it. I like webdesign too but I’m no means a proffesional. I don’t watch much TV apart from the occasional Heroes, asian drama or Family outing episode.
Looking For: Someone who won’t mind that fact I’m really shy, and may say weird/random things if nervous/meeting new people. I like to meet new people though!
Contact Information: my email is paintedmoon[at]gmail[dot]com and my msn is paintedmoon943[at]hotmail[dot]com.
Anything Else: I’m very shy! I prefer to be the one to answer questions, not answer them (if that makes sense). I’m online alot, and frequently check my emails though I only check msn once or so a day. You might be better emailing me! (Or arranging a time to meet on msn)
