Wallpapers & a Tiny Contest Thingy.

[elenniel]

'Tis Jun's birthday!

So, for a change, MatsuJun and Arashi wallies lead the pack XD

Complete list: Matsumoto Jun, Arashi, Sakurai Sho, Ohno Satoshi, Shirota Yuu, Nakamura Yuichi, Aiba Hiroki, Slam Dunk, One Piece.

MATSUJUN
1. 2. 3.
4. 5.
#1 had an interesting angle (but editing out the text that covered the sofa was a pain). I like the result of #2. :)
Loving #3 ... A rare one where I actually stuff in a lot of pics. I was trying to see how I could use many many pics, but still be 'classy' about it instead of what I usually see with all of 'em jumbled together.
#4 I dug out of storage - I suppose when I did that wallpaper, it was a sign that I was starting to be Jun-baited. XP And #5... Is just for kicks. Hahahahahahah! Inspired by windrette  's birthday fanart for Jun...

ARASHI
1. 2. 3.
4. 5.
These are some of my best Arashi wallies - that's what I think, but I don't know if you'd agree. XD (Hate how Jun looks in #3 though.)
#4 was a huuuge success in my opinion. I managed to get a more "realistic" appearance out of it.

And this... Is because Skyura suggested I do something of the sort, since Jun's birthday is right before our country's independence day. Looks a li'l silly, but ah well... XP


SHO

Keio-boy looks good in this one, I think <3

OHNO

Because I liked this picture of Ohno. ("Leader of the Band" is the name of a song.)

----------
SHIROTA

This was done in 30 minutes. Super super fast... But turned out surprisingly well... Me likes :D

AIBA HIROKI

I kinda like how the colours go together here...

CHANNAKA

I still think that Nakamura Yuichi looks like Ikuta Toma...
(Yes, in this wallpaper, the pic is meant to be blurry-ish. I wanted a slight dreamlike effect.)

----------
A couple of anime/manga ones...

SLAM DUNK & ONE PIECE

Shohoku & Sanji!
The latter one's based off my latest fanart of Sanji. A rarity again where the pic turns out really well...


I meant to do more wallpapers, but didn't have the time. ;_; Gomen ne...

----------

- All are at 1280 x 1024 - because that's what fits my screen.
- The watermarks / sigs. They're there because I've had my stuff stolen before (a Bleach wallpaper) and I don't take well to that sort of thing....
- Credits are given on the wallpapers when possible.
- Please do NOT post my wallpapers anywhere else without asking me first. I usually won't say no if asked. Eheh.
- If you'd like any of them without the watermark, just leave a comment with your e-mail (unless you've requested before, then I'll just check my contact list for your add) and I'll send the 'clean' version over.
- Do drop a comment if you like them, or if you have any suggestions. :)


** Oh, a note to minna-sama.
If you like my wallpapers, I'd suggest you add my LJ to your f-list or bookmark it, because I don't intend to spam my own f-list very much from now on. I won't post to the comms which have no concern with the wallpapers posted.
EXAMPLE: If you usually find my wallies from yuu_shirota, but you like my Arashi ones as well, you should mark my LJ because next time if I have no Shirota wallpapers, and only Arashi ones, I won't post to the Shirota LJ comm - only arashi_on. And vice versa. Get it? ^_^;

---------

In "honour" of Jun's birthday and my country's 50th year of independence, I shall have a tiny contest of sorts. Well, two contests really. More like guessing games... Since no one on LJ knows me in person, there's no unfair edge anyone would have :)

Contest 1

Guess which song is playing on my new mp3 player here in this pic. It's from the Arashic album. Is it:
A. Wish
B. Runaway Train
C. Carnival Night
D. Love Parade

Contest 2
I've done soooo many Shirota wallpapers, it's crazy. Out of the ones shown below, which do you think stayed the longest on my desktop?
A. B.
C. D.

Just answer in the comments in this format: 1 A, 2 A.
I won't be screening comments (don't see a need to). Only one try each, okay? ^.^

The prizes?
For both the prizes are wallpaper requests. The first to get the right answer wins. If you're the first in both cases, then you get two wallpaper requests. :)
You may request wallpapers in any dimension you like (whatever your own screen size is), of anyone at all.
Please note that if you want a wallpaper of someone apart from Shirota Yuu, Arashi, Aiba Hiroki, Endou Yuuya, Nakamura Yuichi, Igarashi Shunji, Katou Kazuki, or characters in Prince of Tennis or One Piece, then you need to provide me with the image(s).
For any of those mentioned, you can send me the images you'd like me to use, or leave me to use one of the pics I have in my collection. :)
(Did that make sense?)

EDIT: Whoops. Forgot a closing date. Contests end on Wednesday, September 5th.


... I wonder if anyone's actually gonna try. ^.^;

[fishie]

Of course we'll try. :P I say... 1 A, 2 C!

Also, if I could have a non-watermarked version of the Shirota and Aiba wallpapers from this batch, please~? ♡ Thanks so much~ (Friending your LJ, too~)

[fishie]

And actually, a non-watermarked version of wallpaper B from the second contest would be great, too. (Am I allowed to ask for that? >>;)

[tampabayrocky.livejournal.com]

can i only answer no 2.. im not familiar with contest no 1 LOL


my answer:

2 D

[elenniel.livejournal.com]

lol!
All of it is basically a huge guessing game since there's no way to know the right answer to either unless I've told you personally - that's why I said it's fair to all. Everyone has to blindly guess. XD

But answer noted. It's fine to just answer one of them. heheh

[chibichan03.livejournal.com]

Ooo, this quiz sounds fun.
1 A
2 C

[chibichan03.livejournal.com]

Oh shoot, I forgot to add my request for a wallpaper that you posted. Can I have the aiba wallpaper sent to me without the watermark. You know my addy. ^_^ Thanks!!

[elenniel.livejournal.com]

[xxaibaxl0v3xx.livejournal.com]

Contest #1 answer:

Contest #2 answer:
B

IS IT RITE?!

Ur wallpaper is kool.
I like how u drew[?] the rooms for like Sho and stuff!
It's so creative! I love it! :D:D:D
Arashi #4 is ♥~
I'm just gonna take the watermarks this time! Thx.

[elenniel.livejournal.com]

Whether it's right or not, you'll know in a week XD

The rooms for Sho and Jun were actually mostly already part of the photograph.
For Sho's, the chest of drawers was already there, but there was a real lamp on top of the table. I erased the lamp and drew one in its place because it looked cuter :D
For Jun's I basically added in the floor, carpet and picture frame after I edited out this smiley face that was on the sofa he's sitting on. :D

[chineseathena.livejournal.com]

Um... 1 C, 2 B!

Btw, Aiba looks SO CUTE in that wallpaper!

[elenniel.livejournal.com]

Aiba generally looks adorable. heheh...

And thanks for guessing! I'll have results out in about a week :)

[shinichirouwaya.livejournal.com]

The Happiness PV is kinda cute... I like the fun vibe it has. heheh

[twistedhalo04.livejournal.com]

Hi! Still a huge fan of your wallpapers... I want copies of them without watermarks... please! I can't stop staring at them they're absolute <3 You're doing such a great job.

I want MatsuJun: 1, 2, and 4

Plus all the Arashi ones

And the Sho one...

Can you send it here: mischief_haruky_674@yahoo.com

[elenniel.livejournal.com]

Done! :)

[crux-australis.livejournal.com]

I never really check my flist (nor the communities I'm part of), but I went craving for wallpapers (weird, I know :P), and I don't know why I never thought of combing your journal in the first place, since I've already requested unwatermarked copies from you. ^^

Anyway, I really hope it's okay to ask for a ton of your wallies (because they're all so pretty and refreshing) without the watermarks. ^^

Anyway, if it's not too much trouble, would you mind sending all Arashi (even the individual members' ones) plus Cahannaka's in this post?

(I'll put my other requests for your other wallie posts under this one, as well, so I don't spam you; ^^v)

Also, from this post (http://elenniel.livejournal.com/32379.html), all Arashi ones (individual and group)as well as Okada's, Kazuki's, V6's, Toma's and Shun's.

And from this post (http://elenniel.livejournal.com/26084.html), Yuuya's, all Arashi ones and Aiba's and HanaDan's.

Ack. I feel like a demanding heel for requesting a lot, but I hope that's okay. ^^ Please and thank you. :)

[My e-mail address is australis.crux@gmail.com. ^^]

[elenniel.livejournal.com]

Sent!
Gosh, I hope I zipped the right ones. It's a bit dizzying to scroll through over 100 wallpapers (and I never quite realised until now that I had that many... though I should have realised that ^^; )

Wasn't much too much trouble anyway, so don't worry :)
It's always nice to know that others like the wallpapers I make. (It's a nice feeling, especially after having slaved all day in the office trying to please clients who don't like my designs... ^^ )

[almavmg.livejournal.com]

WoW!!!!
sugoi, your wallys are so kawaii

I'm taking Sawada Shin &
and Matsujun's(matsumoto jun desu) wallpaper.

thank you so much!!!
you do my PC looks great. ^____^

[elenniel.livejournal.com]

You're welcome! And thank you for the nice comment :D
