Kandy-Sugar I've given one to Caius, who is now The Nutcracker. :)


I must also give one to Little Sister for her awesome GFX work! I admire your style and you've made others some fantastic sigs! You work hard at each piece, which is super! :)

Dragon King because I have been terrible in getting back to him about writing! >_< It's partly an apology, partly a thank you candy cane for not getting irate. I've been very busy with work and PGCE stuff, but we should do some writing in the New Year! :)

Shu for being an incredible and witty mod. Your posts are always thoughtful. I appreciate certain views/ethics you have. You seem to be fairly balanced in your approach to debating and life, but also quite certain of your views...That's a difficult balance to strike! :ness:

Lulu-Urie for your comments on my GFX (this is true of a lot of fellow GFXers, actually, and I appreciate the comments from you all) and for always being an active member of the GFX community/helping to keep it alive. :)

Kyoshiro Seiji for his fantastic GFX work, for posting some interesting threads recently, and for the numerous comments in the GFX section. Your work is getting better and better and you've done a lot of requests for others, for which you deserve something in return. :)

Gingerbread Man for being incredibly friendly in posts and in past visitor messages! The fact we went to the same Uni is indeed awesome and it's a shame we only found out after leaving. :ness:

Fleur for your kindness over the past few months and as thanks for the credit given for a post in which I stated that I'd like to teach English! (long winded much :gasp:) Anyway, I assume this means you like the idea, which is fabulous! :)

I really should talk to you all via msn or via private messages more. :hmmm:
 
Ducky Ah, Toni - one of the few people who can put up with me, and won't glare at me afterwards. Nah, but seriously, it's always fun to talk to ya in the shoutbox. you're a sweet gal :ryan:

The Nutcracker Martel, the only person on the forums I know who has been able to conceal almost every bit of their true identity but still maintaining a great contact with most people. Your posts are always a glory to read. Love it when the bashing of XIII comes into play. :wacky:

Little Sister Ari, you are probably one of the most mature people I know, but you can still be immature like the rest of us. You always improve on graphics, and you're just a delight to converse with. ^_^

Six - Boss Lady Kira, another fellow gfxer, a bit on the wacky side, and overall a great person. Your dedication to the clans is admirable. And you make me laugh, so that's a plus ^_^

Kyoshiro Seiji you're overly-sarcastic, and the king of Trolling, but you're equally as funny, and probably the only person who can match me inappropriate joke for inappropriate joke. I can converse with you about almost anything, and you always bring up some great points, especially about gaming, even if you throw the "Ps3 is superior" in my face alot. :hmph:

Starfruit Mar-mar~ A great gal overall, a fellow Degrassi and PLL fan, and just great to talk to. You always seem to make my own feelings about my artwork become positive. You go girl :ryan:.

Shace We have quite the weird friendship. One day I'm calling you Shacy and same for you calling me Kendra. And then another day, we're talking about stuff like Netflix and such. Originally I knew you as the fake-damon, but now I know you as Shace, the dude who calls me Kendra, and the guy who is a good friend of mine. :ryan:

Rorolina Frixell Damon, the forum pervert. You are many things, you have the most inappropriate jokes at some of the most inappropriate moments, but you still find a way to make me laugh at many times. Also, you can understand my weird sense of humor, which barely anyone can since it's so far out there. That's all the reason I need to consider you a friend of mine. and you're also as much of a pervert as I am. :britt:


Yeah, eight is enough for now. I have 12 more, so gonna be back to give out more. :neomon:
 
Here are mine then:

@Kandy-Sugar for being the most active person to comment on my GFX, thank you very much!

@Zipper, because I think you're cool.

@Sugar Plum Fairy because you've been so kind to me lately and I am grateful for that, and you're comments on my GFX too.

@Six for being an awesome Clan Leader.

@Kyoshiro Seiji for being an awesome GFX artist.

@Lirael for your comments on my work as well, plus you're GFX is pretty nifty :).

@Cardiac Kid, because I miss you.

@Stevie, because you're cool too :).

@Cid Raines, because I'm blown away by you're GFX, you've done in months what's taken me years to do, I'm soo jealous of your Zack sig :sad3:

That's all I can think of at the moment, if I can think of anymore I'll add as I go along :).

5: Ness For being cool and playing CoD with me. Need to play more, though. :ness:

7: G. C. Hardesty For being cool and stuff. HURRY UP AND GET YOUR LAPTOP IN SO WE CAN STARCRAFT! :gasp: (Also, Chargers suck. :wacky:)

I'll throw up some more later, when I think of more. :hmmm:
 
I am really bad at words and expression, but anyways, I just want to say thanks to these people: =)

Kandy-Sugar, for creating this awesome thread, and for being a constant visitor in our GFX threads, giving wonderful comments. Thank you!

Six, for being such a great clan leader. You are responsible yet understanding. Thanks for the great work!

Stevie, for being so friendly and funny. You are such a nice and helpful fellow GFX artist!

Lirael, for being such a kind GFX artist and for being a fellow XIII/XIII-2 fan.

Lulu-Urie, for your wonderful comments in my GFX threads. I really appreciate them! (P.S. I think you mispelled Lirael in the post above)

Kyoshiro Seiji, for being a cool yet nice fellow GFX artist. You should cheer up a little in your posts!

Ducky, for being supportive of my graphics works and giving wonderful constructive criticism.

Starfruit, for appreciating my graphics works. I am happy that you love them!


I think that's all for now.
 
Time to give out a few more. :reptar:

8: Kandy-Sugar For being a valued member of this community and for setting all this up again, even though you probably didn't have to.

9: Mitsuki For everything that you do that you want to take part in. If I could give more than one candy cane, I totally would.

10: Harlequin For that one great Halo round, where you kicked the crap out of me, and stole my shotgun right after I got it. :wacky:

11: Tate Langdon 30STM, and all that other good stuff that we both like. :joey:

12: Terrible Terry Tate For letting me rant about my crappy football stuff to you, and for actually listening. :gasp:

More to come tomorrow, when I can actually think without falling asleep. :yawn:
 
13: Fusionist For being really awesome and one of the few people I constantly talk to now.

14: DeadFantasy Even though you are long since gone, you were my first friend, and you gave me my first user note. :sad2:

Shit, I'm late for class! :gasp: *dashes off*
 
My last 5, I'm gonna give some to the amazing GFXers.

Six - My favorite sig I've ever used is from you, you probably don't remember it though, and I am too lazy to upload it. :lew: But, it was purple :jess: So thanks for all ya do in the GFX world and for that awesome siggy. I used it for about 2 months hahaha.

Little Sister - You have made quite a few avis and a few sigs for me and I've always loved them. You do them so quickly too :gasp: My favorite avi is from you, it's the Mayer Hawthorne one, with the hot pinkish purple background :inlove: So thank you for making me shtuff ever since I first joined :yay:

Cid-Raines -For the amount of time you've been GFXing, you are amazing dude. Even if you've been doing it longer you are still amazing dude. You are also crazy good at animation :gasp: Thanks for doing all my requests whenever I have them, I am in love with my current set :inlove:

2 left, I'll do them later.
 
so basically, who are your favourite people on here :hmmm: i honestly think i'd have struggled to come up with 10 people, nevermind 25.

jim, kelly, conor, hal, lew, jay, dave, john. that comes to 8 and i can't think of anyone else.
 
I think now is a good time to do this. Let me just start by saying I have a lot less to give this year, and I am probably not even going to give out ten. A lot of people I originally wanted to put on the list may or may not be on it. :grin:

Anyhow

I. @Fleur - Livi, you are always so hilarious in everything you do, and by that I mean going into my shouts :lew:. I am glad that you can finally take it easy on the alcohol now, and as well as sleep well without any noise now that you are done your first term of Uni. I will blame your crazy flatmates on this one though! You show extreme dedication to what you do, and I truly love that about you. You never do change, and that is fantastic. I know you will never try and be someone you are not. Drunkard or not, you are still the same awesome girl :awesome: Oh and, I am glad that you finally chose to play some Uncharted 3. The pestering sure worked!

II. @Mitsuki - Ah, Mits. I always found Mits to be one of the best and most dedicated ever on this site. Hell, she is an admin, but she does a hell of a good job. Organizing events, and to make the site a better stay. I will be honest, but if we did not have you here, Mits.. the site would be a ghost town. The site has been terribly dull lately, and just imagine if you were not here, Mits. She is always truly friendly, fun, and nice to get along with. Look forward to playing some more Uncharted 3 with you.

III. @G. C. Hardesty - Jay, my good friend. Is there any reason why you should not be on this list? Hmm you did ditch me for someone else on your list last year, but I will forgive you. You are a good guy, Jay! and you know it. Oh wait, I ditched you on CoD, :tehe: Ah, no matter, we will just have to play something else sometime. You are always fun to talk to, whether you bring up The hot church girl or not. Wait! That is a hot topic! I am definitely going to say that you are in my top 2 in terms of close friends.

IV. @Shu - Oh, Tyler now he is a good one and he deserves a lot of these uhh virtual canes. Over the last few months, you really sure helped me, Tyler. Whether people call you a tyrant or not, I just think you are a good guy. You are just as good as Mits, in my honest opinion. You told me how much work you do to not let this place die. Is that work enough? Well, I certainly think it is, although there are some terribly dull moments. I am not going to just give you this because you are an admin. I have a reason to put you on this list. That reason is because the last time we talked, you really showed me that you are not in fact a "tyrant". I will just leave it at that.

V. @The Nutcracker - Martel, there is no reason for you to not be on here. You are just hilarious, and make us all laugh. You hate Final Fantasy XIII with a passion, and that is truly fine. I think you are a good one, Martel xD. What happens in the news section, happens. At least you are not calling everything shit, like hatifnatten. Oh and Xenoblade is coming over here now too, so our argument was rather pointless!

VI. @Gingerbread Man - Dan/Argie, probably one of the best ones I can ask for on here. Dan, you are just truly friendly, and awesome. Hell, you are the lord of all awesome's, as I used to call you, and probably still do. I look forward to playing Uncharted 3 with you, when you finally get it for Christmas. I hope that we can have a lot more fun times than all the fun we had on Uncharted 2. You have a rightful position in Gaia, my friend. I always wanted you to be up there from the beginning. You and Stang.

VII. @Coco - Micci, you are probably one of the best gfxers on the site and you made my Elena Set after I encouraged you. I am glad I encouraged you, after you thought you could not work with the image. You are a very friendly person as well, and I hope you enjoy your ps3 to the fullest. I never even knew you got one till I asked you. xD

Alright, now I am taking a break. This took a lot of thinking, but more will probably come later, or not :griin:
 
Updated yet again!

Now to add a few more people to my candy cane list:

Millie Mackintosh (Ryan): You're so fun to talk to. :ryan: You made me a few awesome sets over the years and I appreciate that alot. :)
One day I will get that Jack and Coke from you. XD

The Nutcracker: I love reading your posts. You're an interesting member and although we don't really speak it's always nice to see decent members on the forum. :ryan:

That be all for now.
 
New ones. :andry:

Kandy-Sugar, for dedicating her time to this thread every year. I always get a kick out of reading these :lew: (Also, i'm Poison & Wine, so if you wanna fix that on your next edit :lew: )

Millie Mackintosh: mainly cause he's another that, at least sorta, helped guide me in GFX when i first started. Thanks. :monster:

Mitsuki and Shu for being awesome and amazing admins. :ryan:
 
Time for some more before I run out of time. :wacky:

Lulu-Urie Lou you're a doll. Surprising me with your improvements, and you using your own drawings as stocks in your gfx. You might be a little bit more shyer than the rest of us here, but you are also one of the sweetest. And you use Gimp and you're still kicking ass at GFX. :griin:

Big Casino Quite the friendship we have, huh? When I first joined the forums, you were among the first friends I've made, and it's been an up and down cycle since then. You're one cool dude even though sometimes we get into some minor fights. :lew:

.Riona Jess! Absolutely a delight to talk to. You share my luck with insomnia, and share the same heated passion of hatred for it. I remember when I started to be fully active on the forums, you were the first person I added to msn from the site. We need to have more talks. :sad3:

Coco An inspiration to almost every GFXer on the site(i imagine). Your skills are matched with your technique and your own unique style. It also reflects off of your personality, which just so sweet and caring. It saddens me that we haven't had much time to converse about topics and such, but of the times we have, I grew a ton of respect for you. ^_^


Mitsuki Miss Admin Lady. I don't know you that much personally, on some levels anyways, but what I do know is that you are unpredictable. You do as good as a job of running things as you do being a laugh riot in the Shoutbox. Your gfx works are just so great. I am jealous.

Kandy-Sugar First of all, thank you for making this thread every year. Your candy cane made me smile. I hope never to lose touch with you! You're such a darling and a sweet friend to me, and I love making sets for you. Stay bubbly and pretty! ♥

Six One for Kira! I've shared many things I don't normally talk about to you, and I never really got to thank you for listening. So...thank you. I find you genuine and absolutely talented. I'm forever a huge fan of your amazing designs and ofc, music. ♥

Elena Fisher Another for Adri. For the support you gave me then, I wasn't expecting your encouragement at the time. Thank you so much. :ryan:

Kyoshiro Seiji One for Kuya Raul. Just because...you're Kuya Raul. I've enjoyed running into you here and there, kababayan. :ryan:

Nathan Drake Leeki my friend who is currently in black. I enjoy talking to you because we pretty much talk about everything. :britt: Come back soon. Much love, Hemsy

Millie Mackintosh Ryyy. From your GFX to your fashion...you got style. :mokken: To top that off, you've been a fantastic friend and one of my favorite people here. :ryan:

c a l i l i l y We don't speak much, but I just wanted to say that I absolutely adore your designs. Also, I find you passionate when I see you post, and I admire that. ♥

Starfruit I hope all is going great with you! Anytime, hun. :ryan:

Big Casino (paranoid) Lew :ahmed: ... :wacky: We rarely get a chance to talk anymore. </3 I hope you're doing great. :ryan:

Sugar Plum Fairy We share the same love for vintage, movies and pretty things. I think you're smart and gorgeous to boot.

Zipper Ken! Thank you for what you said, I'm so very flattered. ♥ You've gotten tremendously better at your designs, it's fantastic. You've advanced faster than anyone and it's developing to a style that's detailed and strong.


Phew. I think I'll leave it at that for now.

20: Amizon Still talk to you every now and then, and hopefully you are still hanging around this joint. :hmmm:

Throw up the rest before Sunday.
 
(chuckles at the tyrant comments) You Better Believe it Ariano, I am the tyrant, on the outside, but it's only to keep you "whipper snappers" in order.

@Little Sister

Ariana. Ooooh what can I say about you that hasn't been said before... :mad: - I kid. So yea, Ariana, most don't know this, but she has some pretty excellent taste in music. I have sort of fallen out of touch with her, but the same goes for most folks on this site. She might lose her temper every now and again, but at least she's up front about it. I respect that totally amongst people. She's honest as well, and which in turn leads to both impassioned logic. She is very passionate about stuff she loves, which means of course she is very lively. Folks resonate around her, and she of course is a good friend... unless you cross her ;). Not saying she is funny sounding.. but on PS3 she did make me chuckle when she raged a little. Very cool person in general.

@
c a l i l i l y

Ooooh cali. How you've been a team player to this here community for sooo soo long. I remember back in the day when you created the thread that I identified most with.. something to do with music club. I definitely started becoming interested in your posts from then on. You've brought quite a bit of spice to this here community and are very passionate in your debates. Becoming clan member was a bit odd at the time I bet, but you filled Raye's shu's err shoes nicely.

Shabba Ranks

Ok Ok, I gotta bust your balls Hal. You might say this that and the other about certain people, or you might think no one gives two shits about you, but you my friend have been around for ... as long as I can remember. You've been more active than I have from the beginning of your membership and on. I still remember your debates, your very level headed views, and the ability to argue yourself out of any situation with the intellect you acquired over the years. I have to say, you might be indifferent and don't have the give a damn attitude, but for someone who was suspended for 6 months to come back and be as active as before.. you indeed are one of the top Members on the forums. Staff might butt heads with you a few times(all the time), but that's only because your talent of Goading people out of their little bubbles. Everything you say is without heat.. but whatever it is.. it will drive a man/lady off the wall. Best yet, you do have great taste in music, and are pretty wise beyond your years about certain artists. I think overall I tend to respect you, due to I see a lot of myself in you.. in the non forum life.

@Tia

Aside from Modding, she's been a great asset on the staff. Though aside from normal staff issues. She's actually a very cool person. As a person who worked customer support I highly respect, I hope you and danimal are doing very well! Even with the alcoholic father jokes I throw at her, she still likes me for it heh. Thanks for the great convos on the side, and the excellent help with the staff. As always you'll always be a good friend!
