Hi there~ my name is Jessica and I'm new around here! I've been a fan of Sailor Moon for well over a decade now... I got into the anime back when I caught an episode on Cartoon Network during one summer vacation (I didn't get the CN station back home!) and then happened to find some of those old DiC VHS tapes (http://www.smuncensored.com/coverart.php?id=6) at Toy's R Us one fateful day and it all grew from there.

I go to into web design because of Sailor Moon. I started off with a little site on Geocities probably around 5th or 6th grade (It was seriously named 'Sailormoon and Scouts World' haha) and I've become the anime & manga fan I am today because of Sailor Moon... its crazy how everything comes full circle and I still love SM today!

I still do web design and own a domain: http://cosmic-dare.org I really enjoy making graphics and whatnot. I also watch way too much anime than I probably should... Everything I've watched and am watching currently is all listed on my MAL: http://myanimelist.net/profile/peacecraft (Feel free to add me if you want!)


Usagi & Chibiusa are my favorite senshi, Usagi/Mamoru is my OTP, S is my favorite anime season and Dream is my favorite manga arc.

Welcome to GC, Anemone! You've certainly come quite a ways because of the fandom, didn't you? ^^

I really have... its crazy when I actually think about it! Haha.

Hehe, that's hardly an issue. I got into writing (and RPing) because of my love for the "Legend of Zelda" series and Anne McCaffrey's "Dragonriders of Pern". They were both major influences.

Hihi! ^^

Welcome to GC! I think that's awesome how you caught Sailor Moon one day while on vacation and you happened to find VHS tapes at Toys R Us. I'm taking it as love at first sight? And that's cool how Sailor Moon got you into web design and graphics

Hey! Welcome to the forums!!

XD mamoxusa forever~

P.s. Pluto, imma hafta talk DRoP with you sometime.

Oh my god, that reminds me I used to RP waaaay back when as Sailor Jupiter and some other characters via Yahoo Messenger and on some Yahoo Clubs. I'd completely forgot about that... wow. I never got into any other RPs though (I dabbled in a little Hetalia RP awhile back)

Aah, Gundam Wing got me into writing fanfiction. I remember running back home after school to read fanfiction on the old Shades of Gray site. (no one but wing fans world remember this site though!) I'M STARTING TO NOSTALGIA, HALP.

Hehe, well, we do have RP boards here! They could use a little love, too.

I actually haven't watched Gundam Wing, though I intend to. There are just so many things to go over with that series, XD, that it's a bit overwhelming for a newbie that hasn't been following it.

Welcome to the forums ^^

It was so crazy thinking about it know. I would specifically run back to our hotel room for a week around 4PM just to catch the episodes! I don't know how I found those VHS tapes but it was a sign, I'm sure.

There are actually a lot of people (at least older fans I've talked to) that SM was the fandom that got them into webdesign. SM fansites used to be the bomb back in the day. LOL




Sailor Uranus: Thank you! :3

I'll have to check them out then!

If you like mecha and political munbo-jumbo, you should enjoy Wing. Its actually not too hard to jump into because you don't have to have watched any other Gundam series before hand. Most people just watch it for the cute pilots, but there is other interesting stuff to it too! LOL



bunbun: Thanks for the welcome!!

*Laughs.* Well, the "scenery" is a bit of a plus, but I'd be more interested in story and character interaction. (Funny note: How "General Louise Armstrong" has pink bishi sparkles in the FMA fandom, all three versions [manga, and two anime].)

Welcome to the forums!

*fangirls* I just LOVE your site! I think it's definitely one of the best shrines out there for cosmos!!! Who is one of my favorite Characters, as well as Kakyuu and Human Luna. <3 I'm honored and thrilled that you decided to join I'm sure you already know our member director, Sailor Jupiter, (who is amazing) who runs Isshou-ni! ^^ If you ever need anything be sure to drop her a PM.


I hope you enjoy your time here! I'm always thrilled to see new graphics designers come in, we have plenty of projects for them! =^^=

Anjyu & Tsuki-no-Kagayaki: Thanks guys~

Awww! :3 I didn't even know my little site even had fans! I tried my best with what I could do for a 1 page shrine (the site was built for a contest actually lol) and what little information we have on Cosmos... I do hope she shows up in the new anime so I add more content!!

Thank you for such kind words! I've seen ads over Tumblr for the Cauldron and I finally couldn't resist anymore. -- Yes, I actually became affiliates with her domain not too long ago now!

I'm always up for fun projects. I can't wait!!

Hehe, I just checked out your Cosmos shrine. And I love it! <3

You've actually given me some ideas on my own Sailor Moon timeline(s), so thank you for that. And oddly enough, I actually haven't seen pictures of the Cosmos fuku having golden shoulder piping in fanart. Weird, huh?

It is so nice to meet you, Jessica! I am Rebecca of Isshou-ni.net and I am hugely enamored over your shrine to Sailor Cosmos. Aside from it being an incredible page with solid content, I adore your design aesthetic. I did not realize that you had collective of your own as well. Welcome to our forum!

Also, I want to say that your siggy is amazing. Where is it from? It is so unique. And your avatar is gorgeous as well.

Well, again, I am very happy to see you here and hopefully get to know you better. ^^ Please also come to me, your Members Director, if you have any questions or need assistance navigating through this forum.

Aw, thanks!

I tried to make myself not read anyone else's theories on Cosmos before writing and try to come up with ideas on my own.... they might be totally off-base to what Naoko intend (or what the fandom thinks) but hey it at least brings up new conversations!

Nice to meet you too~ I guess we never have gotten the chance to really talk outside of a few emails LOL. Aww thank you though--- I feel the same way about your domain!! (I never think I design as good as other people, I guess the grass is greener.) XD

Heh, its actually from a piece of art drawn by the amazing Kate Beaton of hark a vagrant fame (http://www.harkavagrant.com) I love that comic so much!!!! It is hilarious. - The whole original picture can be found here: http://www.harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=337

Hehe. I'm always worried about overstepping my boundaries with other webmistresses so I never know if I should keep my emails short or try talking as I want to.

Thank you for your kind words. I think seeing other incredible website designers spurs us to be better ourselves! I love seeing fabulously designed sites and then getting all excited to design something new. ^^

I've been wanting to make a character shrine myself like yours, but I wonder how to organize it all. I start writing and I realize that I am not properly formatting the different sections. But your site is very inspiring and I would love to make a small shrine like it. ^^

And I think that was very clever to try to keep your own theories clean when putting together your shrine. Poor Cosmos receives so much contraversy, it's best to stay true to your own theories, despite how others may or may not disagree.


So happy to see so many loving your site!

#1 - Oh yes, I've known about your for a long while! Your site is one of the best shrines, and it's just so amazing and detailed! I've been thinking the same thing about the new anime for sure! (Actually I was thinking more along the lines of, YES HOPEFULLY MORE IMAGES FOR GRAPHICS) Buuut, that is just me >.>)

Your site is just adorable, definitely let me know if you are interested in a link exchange or even affiliation

#2 - :O YOU ARE ON TUMBLR?! What's your tumblr?? so I can stalk follow you in a totally fangirlish normal manner


#3 - We have the Siggy Request section, which is always a great way to fix an itch to create, or a play place, the Premade section, where you can dump ones you've made playing around ^^ It's always so interesting working with different image size restrictions compared to site layouts, and graphics, and siggies and such.

Just be sure to post in the R&U section before answering or making requests

Welcome to the forums Jessica! I'm sure you will love it around here!

Oh well if there's ever anything you need or whatever, don't worry about shooting me an email!

Totally! I'm always looking around and saying to myself, I wish I could make something like that! It actually really helps give you new inspiration and ideas.

You should definitely try making something!! The nice thing about shrines is, there really isn't one set way to make them anymore. You can set up and write stuff how ever you like! I think the more unique you make your site the better, it gets more people to come back! LOL

LOL! Having more than those few manga pages would be nice as well!! It would let me actually make another layout too for the shrine.
Oh wow, yeah I'd love to partake in an affiliation or link exchange!!

Hahaha, yep. You can find me at moongorgeous.

I will make sure to do that ASAP.

@JoJiaMystie Thank you~~
