Twelve Days of Christmas Wallpaper SP
Dec. 14th, 2007 02:10 amクリスマスの12日間始まります!
(Please forgive grammatical inaccuracies in the line above. ^^ It's 1.10 am and my mind's not very clear at the moment... Do feel free to correct me, though!)

What's to come?
Wallpapers (of course)
Special wallpaper request days ;)
Extras (E.g. I'll be uploading some of my Photoshop patterns and some of the background elements I use in my wallpapers, etc. So those of you who are more graphically-inclined can try them out if you like ^_^ )
And perhaps a couple of other things - which I haven't figured out yet. :P But mainly those things I've mentioned. heheh.
I will be trying to post at least 2 wallpapers a day, depending on the theme I've set. All the following 11 posts will be linked to this one here so that it's easier to refer to. This way you won't have to add me to your f-list if you don't want to. You can just bookmark this post to keep track of this Wallpaper SP. =)
So here we go! Twelve-day countdown to Christmas day, starting with V6, Aiba Hiroki, Shirota Yuu, Arashi, Takizawa Hideaki, Hana Yori Dango, Sakurai Sho, Matsumoto Jun, Aiba Masaki, Ohno Satoshi, Oguri Shun, Nakamura Yuichi :D *hums Joy to the World*
Day 1: A Partridge in a Pear Tree.
Let's start off with two Christmas-sy ones! Not Arashi nor Shirota Yuu-related, surprisingly. Instead, 'tis V6 and Aibacchi!
V6

I love this. I really do. Somehow the colours just work together. It's got a rather warm, "comfortable" vibe. More of a subtle Christmas air, as opposed to sticking Christmas trees and presents and candy canes and stars all over.
Aiba Hiroki

And here's the opposite extreme. Blatantly Christmas. :P (But I'm fond of this in a way... One of my earliest attempts at making my own Photoshop pattern and using it...)
Now for my "regulars."
Shirota Yuu

As my fearsome photography lecturer used to say: K.I.S.S. Keep It Simple, Stupid.
Arashi
1.
2. 
#1 was an experiment in a new background method. Interesting result...
Takizawa Hideaki

This one seemed fairly popular when I put it up in the preview a couple of posts back. So here it is! For all you Takki fans :D (Yea, I kinda like him too. Why else would I make a wallpaper of him? :P There'll be another one coming one of these days, by the way. hehe)
Hana Yori Dango: F4

F4 よ!
There are two versions of this - the other version doesn't have their names on it. Drop a comment (see notes below) if you would prefer to have that version. :)
Initially, I planned to stop there for today. But I decided, "Hey, might as well start with a bang."
So... Here is one of my personal favourite styles. I like to call it the:
Wave Series
W1.
W2.
W3. 
W4.
W5.
W6. 
W7.
Yea, I know I've posted #7 before, but since it is part of this series, I figured I'd just put it up here too. hehe
(In case you can't see the names on the thumbnails and can't recognise the guys, it's Sakurai Sho, Aiba Masaki, Matsumoto Jun, Ohno Satoshi, Nakamura Yuichi, Hanazawa Rui, and Shirota Yuu. )
EDIT: I almost forgot! Here's a lighter version of W1 (Sho). :)
**********
NOTES:
- 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.
- 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. And please, do state the name of the wallpaper OR, if I have numbers there, state the number. This is for my sanity. ^_^
- Do drop a comment if you like them, or if you have any suggestions. :)
- Also, please do not post my wallpapers anywhere else without first asking me. Generally I won't say no if you ask nicely and credit me. hehe
