This is a static copy of In the Rose Garden, which existed as the center of the western Utena fandom for years. Enjoy. :)

Re: Rate the signature/Avatar above you!

Meh, it's actually just a nod to T-Rex.  But I am indeed a part of the army known as Anonymous, so any nods to the motherchan would be appropriate, given who I am.

I am rather juvenile in general actually...

And I love your sig and ava.

Sig seems a little small, but the text is very lovely and even though I usually object to text with no background, I feel that this one looks quite nice.

And I think the way you framed Anthy in the avatar is a lovely touch.  Both symbolic and aesthetic.


EDIT FOR THE NEXT PERSON WHO POSTS: You don't have to rate my sig/av if you don't want to.  I just always have to respond to anything and everything.  T___T  Please do let the thread carry on without my whoring it up.  Feel free to rate Alexandra's

Re: Rate the signature/Avatar above you!

I'll do both~! 'cause I'm not going to ignore Hya~ emot-biggrin

Hyacinth: Both avatar and signature are simple, which is actually very nice. Choice of subject matter is a little odd, buuut.... we're all a little odd here. All around, it's simple, distinctive and not terrible on the eyes.

Alexandra: On the avatar, part of me is wondering how you got that effect so I can apply it to a crop from the other side of that same picture for an RPG icon. And that is indeed a compliment. The signature is simple, but says a lot about your personality. It's also shaded similarly to your avatar. So, all around, it's pretty and talks about you without being overwhelming.

Re: Rate the signature/Avatar above you!

Lady Chani, I really love your avi/siggy set.  Your avi is funny, but your poor sim-self must be crying alot.
I love the picture you used in the sig, and the quote fits very very well.

That avvie was taken from the icon thread!  I just took it and applied a brighter contrast so it looked white, no blue.  And thank you! emot-smile

Iris:  I see you have a Kozue thing going on, and I like it.  The wording on the avvie was a bit hard for me at first and I question the grammar in the sig but I like the music notes for the sig.  It reminded me that Kozue and Miki were about the piano. etc-love

Re: Rate the signature/Avatar above you!

And, the weird wording is taken directly from Kozue's quote.

That's actually the point of the avi, to make the Utena fans on this forum laugh, because my sim-self cries a lot. emot-keke And, actually, doing this reminded me that I've been meaning to fix my sig, so I finally did that. >>;;; It's not much different, but enough to make me happy.

I like how your avi and sig flow together and make you look at both of them to understand the full meaning. The icon's text could use a little work to make it more readable, but that's not a terrible thing, really. It's also a really interesting crop job on the sig.

Re: Rate the signature/Avatar above you!

I love your ava, not only because it's cute, but because someone has to stand up for the underdog! And I know that most of us haven't made that easy. So, 10/10 for the ava! I think your signiture sums up this forum pretty well.

Uuuaaaaa!  Dollface, your avi scares me.  It's pretty, and catches the anger perfectly.  I like the sig too; it's short, simple, and sweet.

Re: Rate the signature/Avatar above you!

I LOVE the Kozue theme.

It's perfect and beautiful!

Really nice.  And the text is really good too.

10/10


Also, next person, you don't have to grade mine if you've graded mine before...

Re: Rate the signature/Avatar above you!

Tea is refreshing.

I rarely drink it, though, except when I'm feeling social.

I guess 10/10 for a nice subdued signature...

Re: Rate the signature/Avatar above you!

7/10 For having no signature like myself, but having a picture that reminds me of a librarian/Harry Potter/some lady I used to know/cartoon of some sort that I can't quite pinpoint and for making me think of so many things at once it deserves credit.

Siggy? What siggy?

Re: Rate the signature/Avatar above you!

I'm kind of afraid to rate you Tamago because it changes at a moment's notice, but here goes. Actually, honestly I miss the one you had when I first came on here. The one with the anime character who looked like they had a headset on. As for the signature, though there are definitely idiots who were not able to handle disasters it still speaks to me.

Re: Rate the signature/Avatar above you!

I really like the change, hyacinth.  It's very pretty, romantic, and period.  The signature is beautiful.  The avvie matches well enough with the theme, but maybe not with the sig's sunlit serenity. 8/10

Re: Rate the signature/Avatar above you!

*makes purring sounds*

I really love that avatar, Alex-dear. You see Anthy's body, but not her face, which sorta is reminiscent of her "to be used" quality. The sig is simple and uncluttered, which is nice, but a picture in there somewhere wouldn't hurt. 7.5/10

I am still not sure what your ava represents.

I also tried to translate your siggy but I cannot figure out what language it is (I thought it was French but it didn't translate.)

Re: Rate the signature/Avatar above you!

You're getting a 10/10 for switching it back to that. Don't know if it was what I said or if you just felt like it, but it's still awesome. Anyways, I'll try to live up this moment as long as possible before it is changed once more and I get a new avatar to look at.

Yes your comment did convince me to return to the Chiri with headphones piccy.

Looks like the Utena in your ava is about to shoop the woop!emot-rofl

Lovvin the Chiri w/ headphones.  Looks like she's about to say "Ready my ship general! Lets show these dogs what we're made of!"

Mmmm. Delicious creepy Kozue. And the siggy and avatar match! emot-dance
But you used my almost least favorite font (a very picker fonter, I am).
A good seven out of ten!

Edited because I remembered Curlz MT and Comic Sans MS. *shudder*
