Skemaholics Anonymous

Layouts 4 Ning and more!

Come on in and introduce yourself! I'll start.

I'm AnGella, I started this network after we lost the use of Skem9.com. I had so much fun there learning how to do this stuff and seeing all the work other people made that I wanted to keep posting with others. I had started my own site to offer my design services but it was no fun posting alone. So here we are!

I'm pretty easy going. I'm modest. I'm an artaholic. I always wanted to be an artist when I grew up. My Senior year in High School was all art classes except for one required class... Econ. I wanted to go to MCAD (Minneapolis College of Art and Design) but didn't have the money post graduation. Then I guess I fell into the trap of believing I could never make a living with my art. Ok, I'm still not making any money on my art... but maybe one day. I really only got back into creating it in the past year.

I went to college when I was 25. I was able to apply for loans and grants at that time. I put art on the back burner and went for a degree in Anthropology with an emphasis in Forensics. (Death Investigation) I love it as much as art but just can't picture myself around dead people all day every day. I'd much rather make art even if it doesn't pay as well. There's that modesty... I don't need much in the way of possessions. Happiness is much more valuable to me.

Anything you want to know, just ask. :)

Nice to meet you Bonnie! Doing graphics can be addicting! I'm still learning new tricks myself. :)

I'm Bonnie and I too hate doin this but here I am. I am a chef by night haha and I have just recently started learning graphics thanks to BABYDIABOLICAL. She has been awesome. She also has great "dirty" graphics : )
Anyway, I'm glad to be here and hope to learn lots from you all.
Hello everyone since this is the introductions I feel the need to do so .
I go urbantribesman online but I go by Scott in the real world, I am married to angella and co-owner of this site and one of it's moderators.
I am a huge fan of music, you can say that i am obsessed with it and am also a musician, I play the bass,drums and the guitar a little.
I have played in a few bands and heavy music is my true calling when it comes to music, it's in my blood.
I have two very cool kids ages 8 and 3 , a smart and beautiful wife.
I also have a dark and sometimes twisted sense of humor and can be very blunt sometimes but for the most part I am pretty easy going so if anyone has any questions or comments please feel free to message me . m/ m/ m/
Great to meet you! I'd love to see a sampling of your art. :D I haven't seen miss Mendy in a while. Hope she's well!

Hey, Everyone! My actual name is Holly - I go by a few different ones on the net... Scarlet, Pandora, Persephone, CrimsonRegret(13)... Here I am Pandora - I feel as though I hold the box of mystery in my hands - a veritable world of wonder when I am exploring the realm of the internet....
Enough about that. I am 37, an Aquarian, mom of 2 insanely wonderful teenaged sons, and wife to an amazing woman. I went to art school for the traditional fine arts training, so this site building stuff is really new to me - and fascinating. I was a member of Skem9, and stumbled across Mendy's layouts - I sent her my praises for her work, and we became friends. So when this site was founded, she told me about it, and here I've been! Angella has done a great job at keeping the dream and intention of Skem9 alive. I will follow my friend Mendy anywhere she invites me to check out because I trust her recommendations and taste!
I am a very odd girl... my favorite things on the planet are tentacles and the beasties that have them. My fascination began as a child when I dreamed of sailing with Jacques Cousteau, and being a marine biologist. The depths of the sea hold the answers to many of life's unsolved mysteries... Anyway, I was an epic failure at mathematics and the sciences, so my dreams were shattered early on of marine biology. I fell to drawing the seas, and what I imagined lie at the bottom... Ideally, I would love to create a site that would encompass my passion for the unknown....
If there's anything else you's like to know, just ask - I am very open minded and accepting of all people. I belong to several ning sites that are based on paganism and magick, as well. You can almost always find me here or on facebook...
Peace and Blessings to you all!
:D these smilys are cute

Hi I'm Green Briar,
Baby Diabolical and I first met on MonstersofMetal we were both admin and we have really grown since that time.
Hard to believe we knew nothing.... LOL still looking for that full page of fire BABY!
I'm a photobucket junkie, there I admit it.
I cried when they took skem9 away but learned how to make my own layouts cause pimp-my-profile sucks a$$
I have too many ning sites already but Baby is a great friend so I'm here!
Hope to learn one or two tricks along the way too...
Stay Green
Nice to meet you Gianni and Green Briar! Thanks for taking the time to stop by and introduce yourselves!
It's so great to be here! Everyone calls me Vladia or V; actually, I make them call me that *little snicker*. I too, am an artist. I have taken several years of college starting out as a Fine Arts major (local college nothing real great) then attended OSU (Ok State Univ) to continue my art degree only to change to Wildlife management then to Veterinary Medicine.......then Life happened. So, now I'm getting a degree in Life!

My true passions are Science and motorcycles, whata combo eh? Hey, there's alot of physics involved in riding motorcycles. I also study and practice Heathenism. For those not familiar with that subject or lifestyle it is the study of pre-Christian Northern European traditions and mythology particularly Scandinavian territory dating as far back as 4000 years ago. I also love to study Theology/Mythology and Anthropology, Sociology, Etymology, Archeology and inevitably History. Studying Heathenism incorporates all these subjects.

My personality is very faceted. As I gain wisdom through trial and error and aging, I have found myself becoming more and more outspoken. I grew up on the family farm dating back to 1903 founded in the Oklahoma Land Run. Our century old house was very 'active' in a paranormal sense--whole other blog there lol. I'm sure this is why I love mythology and just plain creepy/scary stuff.
Welcome everyone! Glad you are all here and this is very interesting bunch indeed.
Nice to meet you! I love Anthropology and history and a little bit of the paranormal... Can't wait to hear about the house. :D

Nice to meet you! I started this site as a place to post layouts with friends after Skem9.com closed down. We did mostly Myspace layouts there but since finding a new home here we have started branching out to Ning Themes.

We also use the stuff you need to do digital scrap booking since one of my policies is to not use copyrighted images for layouts unless we have the original artist's permission. That means all of our layouts are one of a kind and if you find them on another site they stole them or have used the same artist's works. Or maybe the poster has opted to post them on other sites as well.

Another difference from our site and Theme Worx is that I do not claim ownership over your images or layouts. You must grant me rights to host them but if you choose to remove them then they are still yours. I do however claim ownership of my code. Members are welcome to use my code to make their own personal layouts or to post layouts on our layout site, but they may not post work with my code on any other site unless they ask me and follow my terms of use. This is because I wrote my code based on Ning source code and am not just using the code from a Ning Theme. (My code is also much simpler than the Ning Themes)

If you have any other Questions feel free to ask!

Hello Skemaholics I am Connie and I create very simple Ning Themes on Theme Worx . I am just learning and I absolutely love it! I would love to do digital scrap booking and learn blog backgrounds. I don't know what this site is all about just yet but it looks so exciting.
