I’m very sorry for neglecting this blog so badly. College has been ridiculous this semester between school work and friend drama and relationship issues, so I don’t have the time or energy to properly maintain this blog for the time being. I hope to get back into the swing of things once the semester ends in mid May, but until then, I probably won’t be of much help.
Also, it was recently pointed out to me that this blog’s askbox was still closed even after I said I’d reopened it, so I fixed the links and you can feel free to leave questions and comments. Just know that I won’t get back to them for a bit.
Thank you for your patience and your patronage! I apologize again.

I’ve gotten a lot of questions about how to do this since I have different icons on my personal, so that tutorial will hopefully be up some time this week.
Thank you everyone for your patience and continued use of my themes. I apologize again that I’ve been so bad with this blog. The holidays were a lot nuttier than I expected. Still three plus weeks of break left, so hopefully I’ll be able to get my shit together.
If I didn’t get back to your question and you still need my help, don’t hesitate to send your question again!

I realized a few days ago that I never released this theme, which I was using around late August. There’s no particular reason why I never shared it, I guess it just slipped my mind. If anyone’s interested, I can add it to the theme release queue and make it theme 028. Any takers?
I will be closing the askbox of this blog for the following week or two, so that I can focus on finals and catch up on the boatload of questions in there now. I will also be answering only the first 50-100 of those questions in the askbox. I assume that the rest have become irrelevant by now. If I don’t get to your question by the time the askbox is reopened, feel free to send it in again and I’ll be happy to give you your answer then. PLEASE do not send your theme questions to my personal askbox while this one is closed. They will not be answered.
In happier news, I hope to release themes 026 and 027 by the end of the month, so you can look forward to that!
Thank you so much for your patience, and for your continued use of my themes. I know I’m probably being annoying with my extreme slowness, but school and personal dramas are running me ragged. My semester ends 12/15, so I hope to be able to be more on top of things then. :-)

I’ll try to be more regular about answering questions here. There’s still a TON of messages backed up, so if you still need my help and I haven’t gotten to you yet, I apologize for the wait.
I have some time this weekend, so I’ll try to get back to as many messages as I can.
Also, how does everyone like the new theme?

Theme Makers Blackout was an idea, a month in the works. It’s a statement to show who we are, what we want to stand for, and hopefully, speak out on behalf of all the theme makers that have already decided to leave and/or remove their themes. During this blackout, all participating theme makers will not release any new themes, answer theme related questions, or have their themes availble for use for three days (72 hours).
More questions will be answered when it sorts itself out.
I hope everyone likes it, and more importantly doesn’t have any trouble using it. :-)
