Well, it is Christmas eve, and I am updating with a LOT of graphics and new things as a celebration. To be honest though, this holiday season doesn't really have the warm and fuzzy feeling that it usually does, and many people agree. *sigh* Nonetheless I am not having a bad holiday season... it just is not how it used to be. Anyone agree? Ahh, I'll shut up and let you all know what's new with shuriken!

For Resources - First and foremost.. I finally made more graphics from Dead or Alive, as you will see in this update. The first one I will inform you of is a PNG of Ryu Hayabusa as he is in Dead or Alive 2 Ultimate. :D I have always loved that specific picture of him, and so I finally cut it out. Second and last of the resource section that has new additions are the textures. At the size of 100 x 100, there are two new textures. They are my best in this size yet and were very useful when I made some of the avatars in this update, which I will get to now.

For Graphics - Avatars are most numerous in this update racking up with the count of 11! Kingdom Hearts comes in first with over half of the new avatar being from that one series. Some of my favorite avatars are in that bunch, so go check them out if you are fans! The five have Kairi, Terra, Saix, Zexion, and 2 Axel. The Kairi and Axel avatars are the best :P Now onto the other five new avatars. Like mentioned before, I made Dead or Alive graphics. Only one, but still better than nothing, especially since the one avatar is one of my best. Very similar to the avatars of Ayane and Kairi, there is a new Yuna avatar from Final Fantasy X. Other additions are under the categories of Other, J-rock, and Jade Empire. MOVING ON FROM AVATARS! I have FINALLY made new enter signs :D One has a sparkling romantic them, while the other is of Cloud and Squall (Leon) when they appear in Kingdom Hearts. From the same series as the man featured in the current layout, there has been a new wallpaper added! It was different compared to what I am used to working with, and I am glad it turned out decent. The series it is from is called Aion. Last and not least for the graphics is an update for the forum sets! Three new sets have been added. One is starring Terra from the newer Kingdom Hearts games yet to be released, another is of Utada Hikaru jamming out on the guitar, and the last is of Aoi from The GazettE.

For Interactive - 2 new videos! Yay! Though I HAVE made videos of other than Kingdom Hearts, they are larger files and it takes longer for them to upload. I will get around to uploading them over this break however. One of the videos has Breaking Benjamin's Unknown Soldier. Check it out if you want. The other has Time by Timbaland. I love this song and the video was fun to make.

A final note is that avatars have been arranged to show the newest at the top and oldest at the bottom. Plus, I have rid Shuriken of most of its lower quality graphics. I am still slowly cleaning it out. Enjoy! I will end this post here before it gets so long that people are too scared to read it XD And have a MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!

Version X already?? I'm particularly fond of this one though ^^. It's all bluely and icey looking to make it look more wintery themed. I think the character featured in it is from KHIII But I could be wrong (probably are too).
I for one am happy to have the regular navigation back ^^; Image links get old after a bit ne? Hope you all like it <3
