First off, thank you for visiting Cloud-Realms. Cloud-Realms is a small graphics site where you can get free pre-made graphics ranging from material for your own works to layouts and icons. CR also houses my personal portfolio where I have previews of old graphics that I have done that has not been lost to time. Cloud-Realms is a personal hobby of mine, therefore every now and then you may find PG-13 material such as non-explicit images of yaoi and yuri. This is a personal taste of mine. Any "explicit" works will be noted beforehand, so you have the choice to ignore any such material. Please refrain from sending any emails to me in regards to this material. Please keep in mind though that unless it is artistic, there will be no nudity on CR at this time. Again, thank you for visiting, and I hope you enjoy my stuff.

Updates

November 18th, 2009

Hey guys, no graphical update on this one, but I promise there will be one by the end of the month. I just wanted to let you all know everything's good and such. My delay in an update comes from the fact I've found a new program that I've been tinkering with and having a hell of a time. It's called Terragen 2. I've been having an absolute blast with it. While it's not specifially for layouts and such, I could end up making some bases for some awsome layouts and wallpapers. It's basically a program that creates realistic depictions of scenery, such as forests and planets. I've always been amazed by some GREAT galaxy based wallpapers, and I'd like to learn how to start making a few. It's a very complex program to just jump into. Heres a few samples of what I've managed to do so far, nothing spectacular as of yet, but these took over 4 hours to do for such a basic looking form.



The details look far more amazing in higher resolutions, so I'm very much hoping to create a beautiful base planet and create some awsome wallpapers and layouts using what I make in Terragen 2 in Photoshop. I will be linking the program soon in my credits page for anyone who becomes interested in trying this program out. Also, finals are coming up, so I've been bogged down preparing for that. I have some great ideas coming up though so! We also have one new link exchange, Starry Night, a pretty awsome Full Moon fansite.

Well, after a few months, I finally have an update. I apologize to everyone about having disappeared without a word or a hiatus notice. I got into college and I have all accelerated classes, so I've been way busy, and for a while I couldn't even look at my photoshop, let alone think about it. I'll try and keep in touch with everyone and keep popping out updates, and if I have to hiatus again I'll let you guys know. As you noticed, I've finally changed the layout of the site. It's along the same lines of the last layout, and it is dedicated to someone close to my heart. I really like it, and I hope you all do too.
Theres a few minor things I need to fix here and there, such as the icon alignment and some colors of the forms, but I'll get to those soon. The purple doesn't kill it too much though, haha. Everything major is in fine shape though. To the updates!

Well I finally managed to pull some graphics out of my bum lol. No layouts, but still, I hope you all like them. I opened up a new section, Wallpapers. I hate making wallpapers but the next part of my contests is wallpapers, so you'll be seeing more. The one that I put up is what I did for K.O. contest. I actually like how it came out. I played around with the pen tool and made the wings and the little abstract tentacle things. Its got some brushes and patterns too to spice it up. I'll try to bust out some layouts soon if I can find the inspiration to. I also cleaned up the side a bit; Mikomi Designs was finally removed due to she's been inactive for the past couple months and I haven't heard word from Muffin. If you come back, you're more than welcome to be an affiliate again =). I also removed some of the link exchanges due to lack of link back/site gone. Calis site was also switched over to Scarlet Designs. This update is dedicated to Patrick.
And I'll take with me the memory, to be my sunshine after the rain; It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday.

Edit:Please welcome Tenshi-Ai to the affiliation family! Hei, one of the owners, was actually one of the very few people who worked with me on CR before I shut it down a few years ago. It's amazing seeing how far along he's come in the years I was gone! Tenshi-Ai is really an amazing graphic site and I urge you ALL to check it out. It's great to have you as part of the family again Hei =).
