Logo Requests - setting the records straight!!!
I have been noticing a high volume of Nokia Logo requests lately, but almost all are requested via email. Please, I only read my email if I'm expecting a message. My email is full of spam (all you Hotmail account owners know) and when I open it, I usually search for a particular user name, select all others and bam, all spams are deleted. And for some reason, I clicked on one of the spams because the "sender" has a "real" person's name and without a "subject" line. And guess what, it's a request for a logo. I even have to go to my email trash bin and check all emails and lo and behold, I received 20+ logo requests. I am able to send the logo to those 20+ requestors but I really would not know how many never even got a reply from me.

Another instance is that when I checked the forum, I have I think an average of ~10 local registered users. But these 10 never even posted anything. So please, if you register a global or local account, you need to post your requested logo so I will know.

And to those who send me email, I would suggest that you state the request more clearly, specifying not just:

"3210, a2, +16720819" - now, i will never know what "a2" logo is, right? I need the category and i don't know what carrier are you using/subscribing to, right? And no, I'm not joking, I really got this one-liner email and I have no problems with that as long as the request is clearly stated.

So to set the records straight,

a) please post at the forum (no, you don't have to register a username anymore).
b) information you need to post in the forum are: Nokia phone model, logo category and grid (i.e. a1 Animal), carrier/network (i.e. GlobeTel, SingTel, PaccBell, etc.) and your cellphone/mobile phone number in International Format. Or if you prefer, email me your phone number. This is the time that I will check my email and look for your logo.
 
This is a bad moment for me.
My host, TBNS.NET seems to be going for pop-up banners. I don't like banners, in fact, I hate them. I understand that they provide the web space to me for free but I don't want to give my visitors an ad-full site. It annoyed me so I am thinking the visitiors feel the same way. I am planning to move my site, if not completely shut it down. In the event that you, visitors, feel the need for logos, please visit my pilot beta site at http://arcie.netfirms.com. It has the logos all the logos (i think), just go the gallery section. The only thing that's keeping me from migrating completely there is, again, the "ad banner".

In any case, I am posting at TBNS forum and requesting if they can spare this site to be an "ad-free", "pop up-free" site. They have a paid ad-free system but I have no money for that.

Ahhhhh......more sex-related logos
Thanks to my visitors for sending me these sex-related logos. Hehehe, well, it sure raised some eyebrows but I hope we all consider it as a funny one rather than an offending thing in my collection. Again, thanks to so many people who emailed me and contribute to my growing collection of logos.

Thanks to my Host
This is just a thank you note for my host and domain redirector. I have been asked several queries about it and it just occur to me that it is only right for me to refer you the best domain and web site hosts. TBNS provides me with a 20mb web space and DomainZero provides the domain redirector for the http://www.arcie.org. I will place their link as soon as I have their buttons ready.

Web Interface???
I used to have free web interface in my old site but since only a few likes them, i decided to put it down. Beside, I am extremely low on web space. Right now, I only have less than 4mb free. Anyway, since February, I got quite a few emails from some who want to do web design and those who want to have their own site and asking where to get sample interfaces. I figured I'd provide some free ones as well to help them start out. I am not a MASTER myself. I am too lazy to be a web designer hahahaha. So, to set everything clear, I consider myself a web hobbyist rather than a true web designer. I enjoy doing design. If you really want to learn more, check out the links that I have placed in here as well. Join in the respective forums (not mine, mine's only for Nokia logos hehehe). You can still check out my forum since all but one in the ezBoard links in my forum are related to Web Graphics and Web Design.

As for me making a free web interface available here? Well, we'll see if I can get some more free space. In the meantime, check out the links I have since some already offer free interfaces.

Site of Moment and Site of The Month- Polykarbon and Emode
I have been frequenting Polykarbon for quite some time and even placed a direct link below but I can't believe I haven't placed it on my Site of The Moment :). Emode is also a very cool site indeed and I just tested my I.Q. score in there. The first try I got 115 (above average), and the second try I got 135 (which means a genius)...hahaha, no wonder some genius are cheaters or repeaters.

Updated:Nokia Vehicles Logos -
I just found out that the vehicle section is a duplicate of bizarre logos. Sorry for the error. I have updated it to reflect the logos.
 
Logo Requestors -
Please please post in the forum if you're requesting a logo. I just got a couple or more "hate" mail saying why I haven't sent the logo yet (which reminds me not to read spams hehehe). Please, I don't want to send logo to the wrong recipient. I need a verification. As I've said in the forum, for confidentiality, you can email me your number and logo and as a means of double checking, please post in my forum and include your email address. I usually delete lots of spam email in my HotMail account so sorry if I failed to get back to you. If you'll post in the forum, at least i can sort out your name and read it :)

Great Web Site of the Moment - Fli7e
This site has always remained my favorite. Great WinAmp skin, not to mention this site is really cool and dreamy. I always like the dark theme and mysterious effect..

I didn't play any games yesterday and last night so more "New Wallpapers" -
I made another 5 brand new wallpapers. This time, I "play" with people. It's just so hard to make them since they are all so small to start with and resizing them to a bigger resolution always resulted to crappy graphics. Ewwww.....talk about being pixelated. Anyway, each wallpaper took me about 3-4 hours, most of the time I spent retouching the stock photo. Sorry, I have no money to buy great quality pictures so....

Post your thoughts or feedbacks in my forum and suggest what you like or would like to see in the future wallpapers. You'll notice that yesterday, the trend is about the scenery, and now, it's about people. I am thinking of animals next, I just  can't decide what animals to use: domesticated, wild, dangerous, extinct, ancient, or maybe fantasy. The next problem of course will be, should I draw them or will I use stock images.

New Wallpapers, Nokia Logos, and Zodiac Symbol Logos
Yep, they're all up. I made 5 brand new wallpapers  to spice up your desktop. All five of them are stock photos with 640x480 resolution and transformed into a 1024x768 wallpaper. I manipulated all of them and added some effects.

Nokia logos are all up as well. I don't have the "machinery" to have my site automatically send them to you so what you can do is tell me what icon you like and I'll send them to you. Make sure you note what set and what type of icon you like. I seldom read my email so if you want immediate response, post it in the forum so I can send them to you asap. Note, please include your full mobile number in international format (+country code-area code-mobile number).

Also, if you have a site or design which calls for a need to have a Zodiac symbol, you're in luck. Check 'em out in the gallery section as well. Remember, all my home grown images are for your personal use only. Post in my forum if you have any request.

Great Web Site of the Moment - Marshmallow Land
My friend, you got what you're aiming for, to be the spotlight awardee for  being an "Arcie's Great Site of the Moment" winner. Your prize include a lifetime membership and inclusion of all my on-line activities.

Seriously speaking, Marshy's site is one of those which I can say as mysterious. From an estranged forum newbie to forum junkie to a forum superstar to Web administrator and forum owner. Truly, Marshy deserves to be my awardee.

Oh, and last but not the least, make sure you visit his forum as well and meet the freaks......

Yep, Nokia Logos are coming in - 
Due to numerous requests, I am speeding up the Nokia logo gallery. The Gallery section is still under construction and still needs to be redesigned. Right now, the table of gallery is still up and and will be like that until  I have decided on what design  to use. Also, the Nokia logos will be uploaded very very soon.

Great Web Site of the Moment - EndEffect.Com
Well, I dare anyone else to go against me when I say that this site "Is Refreshingly Cool and Wacky with Graphics and Design".

Brand Spanking New Design - 
Due to the reactions I've got from my regular visitors, I decided to change, again, this site's design. I know that the last one have a background that makes it really hard to read text. And I succumb to the suggestions that I'd better come up with a better readable site since I am suppose to make it readable :). Since this again goes way out my usual abstract design and way way different from my early designs, I consider this a breakthrough for myself. I have always have a hard time making "lively" and "colorful" pages. If you are one who follows the evolution of this site, you'll notice that from my "dark" site, I tried and failed miserably to come up with a "colorful" site. I decided that instead of quickly jumping from one theme to another, why not transition slowly. And this is the result.

Welcome to Arcie's Web Page v5.0

p.s. I am too lazy to make roll-overs...so maybe later :)
