Special MentionsThe following people are... amazing... there is no easy way to explain or describe the depth of love I feel for these girls. They have all been excellent friends, but above and beyond that- they have always been never ending sources of inspiration and creativity for me. Essentially? These lovely ladies are my muses. When I'm down, personally or creatively, they are there for me... whether they are aware of it or not! Girls, thankyou for just being yourselves, and for helping me become a better person, and designer :) ♥ Phyress of
AsheNUFavourites: Seraphim, Maiestas & Ambrosia I have known Phyress for many years. Even before we met, I practically stalked her, because she was made of such inspirational awesome! I followed her around the 'Net, watching her grow and become the amazing webmistress she is now. Back in the day, she had to leave the webdesign world at what I would personally call the height of her webdesign life... to begin a new and amazing journey as a mother to one of the cutest little girls I've ever seen. Now, Phyress is back after a few years respite, and she's back on her way to the top! I know how hard it is to 'get back into the swing of things' creatively, so I completely empathise with, and admire Phyress' courage and determination to bring her beautiful, and exceptionally popular collective AsheNU back to life! I love you Phyress, you really were/are the webmistress and owner of the domain that made me want to build character shrines and one day own my own domain.  Airi of NamineORGFavourites: Phoenix, Go! My Heaven & Candy Girl I have known Airi since her days back at Wind-CharmerNET, when she was still a secret to the webdesign world. She wasn't as popular as she is now, but even then, her designs and content just screamed that she was a girl to keep your eye on in future! In the two years I've known Airi, she has become one of the the big 'IT' girls in the gaming domain business. She went from small town girl to superstar in what seemed a very short time. Now, there isn't a self-respecing webmistress in the community that hasn't heard of her! I was very cautious to ask Airi for affiliation and friendship back then... she seemed like a goddess, and I was afraid she would reject me. To my absolute stalkerish delight however, she has become one of my best friends. Whilst some of our fandoms are different now, we still have heaps in common and I will always adore you Airi, for your tenacity and love of crack!pairings. 
Sofia of SohryuNUFavourites: Endless, Soulshadow & Emotionally Unstable I have known Sofia by far the longest out of any game domain webmistress still online today. Back when I owned FataldesireORG, and was going in search of my first ever affiliate, I came across Sofia's old domain ShuyinBiz. I instantly fell in love. Her collective was sexy, dark, always featured hot FF men, and she herself was a huge FFVIII fan, just like me! I think it took me about two months to pluck up the courage to finally email Sofia- and she turned out to be the sweetest, most fun-loving fangirl I've ever met. To me, she had all the style, design and skill of an 'elite' webmistress, but none of the snotty, "I'm too good for newbies" attitude. Sofia and I became fast friends, constantly fangirling over Sawyer of Lost or Shuyin of FFX-2. Whilst Sofia has been kept busy with her university studies, she is once more trying to revive her wonderful network to its former glory, and I couldn't be more excited! I love you Sofia, you've been there for me since the beginning. DisclaimerAll writen, medial and design content is the creative works of Kitty, unless stated otherwise.
