    Amikarashui is in this week's Beauty Contest! Feel free to vote for her HERE; her real entry is on her petpage, since it kept geting rejected T_T. So please look at both before you vote ^o~.

    I've added two more userlookups; these feature Lust from Full Metal Alchemist, and Oruha from Clover ^o^.

    Happy New Years to you all! I know it's been a while since I've updated last, but I've been busy with real life. I've edited the anime puzzles so the medium and hard levels are a bit more difficult. I've also added in two new userlookups, a Full Metal Alchemist one, and a Naruto one ^o^; I might be adding in more later today (ended up finishing it just now; it's an xxxHolic one!) . I hope you like them!

    I've added a new userlookup, featuring Sakura from Naruto! I hope you like it :D

  • Sunday, October 28th, 2007
    I've decided to add the updated userlookups that I've made so far to the site. I'll be making more as soon as I can. I hope you like them ^o^.

    I'm still working on the userlookup redesigns; basically I'll add them to the site once I have a decent amount made. In other news, I thought I'd advertise for my guild, The Quadrillionaire's Guild 2. Although we currently don't have vey many active members, the people who are active are all very nice, and we try to help each other out as much as we can. If you're new to Neopets, we try to help you learn abut the ways of Neopia, and don't treat you badly just because you're starting out. So if you'd like to join a guild that is very loyal to it's members, feel free to join the guild I'm in. And once we have enough active members we can start running more guild events, like giveaways and guild games.

    I finished updating the Neopet related lookups, and I have decided that I'll be redesigning the anime lookups to make them similar to the neopet ones. My main reason for doing this is that Neopets keeps on changing parts of their site, which messes up the anime lookups mostly. I either have to change my coding, change my background size, or both. I've already seen a couple of my favorite sites that offered premade userlookups quit offering them; they can't keep on updating all of their lookups each time Neopets changes the site. I think that by changing the anime lookups to the neopet related format, it will be easier to update the coding when I need to. This format will also be better for different screen resolutions, as the current anime lookups look either too small or too big depending on your screen size. I'm sorry for those of you who prefer the current format, but I'd rather take this option than the alternatve: simply stop offering userlookups.

    I've noticed that my lookups are appearing differently on Neopets, so I think they've changed their coding again -___-;;;. So I'm going to have to fix them all T_T. I may consider changing them to look like my neopet related ones, with a header image and repeating background, because I can't keep on remaking them everytime Neopets updates.

  • Thursday, August 23rd, 2007
    I just realized that my anime puzzles weren't working, so I fixed them. I see a lot of people saying they'd like to send me Fan Art to put up on my site, so if you're sending me anything, please put "Avista's Forest" in the subject so I know not to delete your email. I'm also going to be working on some reviews of anime series I like, so if you want to send reviews of anime series as well, I'd appreciate it ^o^.

  • Saturday, August 18th, 2007
    I've added Enthusiast to all my fanlistings ^o^. So now I won't have to spend so much time typing in all those entries by hand. I had to add all the previous members in myself though, which was especially hard for my Haku fanlisting, which had a lot of members T_T. But now it's done with, and I can have a well deserved sleep ^o^. And by the way, any future anime lookups will be made the same way as the other ones, so the mini poll is now closed ^o~.

  • Sunday, July 22nd, 2007
    Sorry for the lack of updates T_T. I'm entering Amikarashui in the Beauty Contest again! You can vote for her HERE. The original picture is bigger and better, so you an see it on her pet page.

  • Saturday, June 2nd, 2007
    From the mini poll results, I've decided to continue making neopet related lookups; this new one features Team Shenkuu of the Altador Cup! If you couldn't tell, I've joined Team Shenkuu, and so while I wish everyone else good luck, I'm secretly hoping my team wins ^o^. Speaking of the mini poll, I've changed it; this time I'd like to know what you want for future anime lookups. Should I make them like I'm making the neopet related lookups, with a header image and a repeating background, or keep them the same, with just a big background image? Feel free to vote for what you want them to look like ^o^.

  • Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007
    I've added in an Eliv Thade userlookup. Also, I got rid of the rules page from when you click on "Neopet Userlookups"; it was from when visitors needed to fill out a form to get a lookup, so I felt it no longer necessary to be there. Don't forget to vote on the Mini Poll to let me know what you think of the new neopet related lookups ^o~.

  • Tuesday, May 22nd, 2007
    I've added a new neopet related userlookup; this one features Florg from the Feed Florg game! I added in a mini poll as well, to see if anyone likes the new neopet related lookups I've been making. Feel free to vote to let me know what you think of them ^o^. I also updated the award winners page; I had forgotten to add some past winners in, sorry -__-;;;.

  • Monday, May 21st, 2007
    I've added a new neopet related lookup, featuring the Happiness Faerie! I've also updated all of my fanlisting sites. I think some of my older emails are missing; I know I had a lot more emails than are in my inbox, so I think my email service got rid of my older ones T_T. So if you sent an email to me to join a fanlisting and you have not been added to the fanlisting, or you have applied for Avista's Awards and not received a response, then please resend your information to me. Sorry for the inconvenience, but it can't be helped.

  • Sunday, May 20th, 2007
    I made a new neopets userlookup! It's a neopet related lookup, featuring a Chocolate Chia ^o^. I've removed the previous neopet related lookups, since they no longer work due to the updated neopets layout. But when I have the time I'll see if I can fix them ^_^.

  • Saturday, May 12th, 2007
    My pet Amikarashui is entered in this weeks Beauty Contest! Feel free to vote for her! Amikarashui's Beauty Contest Entry. You can also see the original image on her pet page: Amikarashui's Forest

  • Saturday, May 5th, 2007
    I finished updating the premade anime lookups to work with the updated neopets layout. I still need to update the neopet related lookups though. Also, I got rid of the pattern lookups because I really don't like how they look anymore; in the future I might make nicer patterned backgrounds, but at the moment I'm wanting to focus on improving my anime lookups.

  • Saturday, April 28th, 2007
    Sorry for the lack of updates; I'm still busy with real world things. I just thought I'd mention that due to Neopet's new site design, none of my premade userlookups will look right. I'm going to wait and see if anyone figures out how to go around the new site design, and then I'll update all of my coding. Hopefully it won't be too much work -__-;;;. I also hope they give an option to revert your pet back to the old pet designs; I painted Amikarashui to be a Royal Aisha, and the new look is awful T_T.

  • Friday, March 16th, 2007
    I forgot to add this to the updates, but I've created a new fanlisting about Rosemon from Digital Monsters called Digital Enchantress. I've put a link to it in my Site Collective Section.

  • Sunday, March 11th, 2007
    I have finished updating all of the pages; I have added in some new poems, and updated the link to Avista buttons. My next big plan is to add graphics such as avatars, sigs, signs and wallpapers, but for now I need to rest, since I'm still ill; the graphics will probably have to wait until next weekend. I hope you enjoy the changes that I managed to add this weekend though ^o^.

  • Saturday, March 10th, 2007
    I'm currently updating the site; since there's a lot of pages it may take a while, so please be patient. One update I hope you'll appreciate is the anime layouts page; no you can just download the layout you want instead of applying for it! I'm still looking for a simple to use download counter, but it's not necessary. I've added more gifs, such as smilies and other cute things. I'm also trying to make the site easier to navigate, so I'm organizing pages differently.

  • Monday, March 5th, 2007
    I was going to update the site yesterday, but I've been ill (I still am), and so I won't be updating until I'm better. To see the image I'll be using for the header, go here: Avista: World Tree revised.

  • Sunday, March 4th, 2007
    I'm about 90% done with coding the new layout; I've finished the design, and am now working on refining the code it and updating all of my pages. I'll hopefully be done before Monday.
