Paranoia is a small graphics blog and layout shop owned by me (Kristun). I use this site to showcase my work, but I also offer a small range of graphics for you to use on your own site(s). If you have any concerns, or need any help, feel free to contact me. I hope you enjoy your visit, and come back soon!

As promised, graphics!

Updated on 29 Jul 2008.

Hello again. As I promised, I updated the site with a new batch of graphics. I feel a little guilty that it's such a small amount, but I have more to post very soon. My computer is currently going through problems, and keeps freezing every now and then. It kept freezing after I tried uploading a large amount of graphics through FTP. Now I'm stuck with uploading a small amount at a time. I feel so sad :[

Anyway, enjoy the new graphics. Today I added:

x 1 New Tutorial - I finally came around to making a tutorials page, and my first tutorial. This tutorial will teach you how to make a certain style of avatar with a warm color scheme.

x 1 Brush Set - I was playig around with basic shapes and came up with a really neat brush set called "Hearts."

x 20 Textures - This is where I hit the motherload, and my computer froze. I have about 30 more textures I am slowly uploading, and will add to the textures page soon. They are basically all stock images and light textures. Enjoy.

x 4 Color Palettes - If you are having trouble finding the right colors for a layout, then check out my newest set of color schemes.

My site is finally finished! Yay! All of the pages are working now, so I'm basically creating new pages and new types of graphics. I will be releasing a set of premade layouts and free layouts very soon, once I get around to coding everything. Enjoy!

Version One

Updated on 27 Jul 2008.

Welcome to Version One of Paranoia Designs. I completely despised the so called "version zero" I had before this one. I had to take it down. I admit, the rotating pictures were awesome, but everything other than that just got on my nerves. This version features Bill Kaulitz, for those of you who don't know, he's the lead singer of the amazing german band Tokio Hotel. The pictures in the layout were from his younger days, haha.

Besides the new layout, I also made a big change to the website. I opened up a Layout Shop, where I will be selling professional premade layouts for fansites and such. I will still be making free graphics as well. To take a look at the FREE graphics and resources I have to offer so far, take a look in the goodies section. There you will find brushes, textures, avatars, etc. I will be constantly updating this section, so be sure to check back often. The next batch of graphics will be coming soon, I'm working on them as we speak.

If you are interested in hiring me to make a layout for your website, please be sure to check out the packages I have to offer, and order here. I also updated the rules section with a few new rules reguarding ordering a layout. That about sums it uo for today!

[EDIT]: I forgot to tell everyone that I will be opening up for affiliation again, though you could probably tell already because I have affiliates.

Besides that, Paranoia has a new affiliate. Please welcome Sushy of Xixa! Go check out her site, the web comic is amazing, and I can't wait to see more.

Also, that was fast, I have finished my first order. Check out the layout I made for the SONNY MOORE FAN FORUM.





I will be back later with a new batch of graphics! Bye!

Shhhh. I'm concentrating!

Updated on 24 Jul 2008.

How many of you hate, I mean dislike this "temporary version?" *raises hand* Yes. I don't like it that much. I put it together in a small matter of minutes and to me it shows. Over the past few days I finally managed to finish the first version. Now all thats left to do is code it and put it on the site. Yay!

For the next few hours Paranoia will be going through some serious layout changing. So, if the layout looks funny, the images are different, or the colors don't match, no need to worry. I should be done in the next few hours, or maybe *gulp* tomorrow. [I hope not]

I'll update again when I'm finished posting the new layout, along with some new graphics! Later...

EDIT: The new layout is finished coding, and I will be posting now. Some of the colors might be off and some pages might not be working. I'm fixing them as we speak and they should work fine soon.

Grand Opening

Updated on 21 Jul 2008.

After about two months (or more), I can finally say... "Welcome to Paranoia!" This is the grand opening of the site! Now, it's time to make a proper introduction. :-)

Hai! I'm Kristun, you might know me from my past site, also called Paranoia. I decided to move my site to another host, but keep the name. I'm really looking forward to updating, and creating more graphics for the site. I don't know what else to say, I'm bad at introductions, so... on to the graphics! Some of the graphics were transferred from my old site, but I made a lot of new graphics also. Since this is the grand opening, I wanted to start out with a big update. Today I added:

x 8 Brush sets. Seven of them came from the old site. I made a new set, titled Tornado, that features a lot of swirly brushes. I know the name isn't that original, I couldn't come up with anything else. blush

x 12 Textures, stocks and scans. About half of these are light textures. I have a lot of these that I made stored on my computer. I'm too lazy to sort through them all and add the good ones XD

x 2 Patterns. Both of these are new. They're rather simple and really colorful.

x 16 Avatars. 15 of them are from the old site, and only one of them are new. Sorry about that.

x 12 Color Palettes. All of these are new. I just started making color palettes when I was in a designers-block. I couldn't think of anything to make so I spent my time putting colors together to come up with cool color schemes to try and come up with some sort of graphic, and... tadaaa! The color schemes section was born! These are all the graphics I have to offer for this update.

I'm in the process of transferring the rest of my graphics, so you'll see more on the next update. I'm also making layouts, and a few tutorials to add to the goodies section. I'm not opening up for affiliation at the moment, my site is still unfinished. When I do open up for affiliation I'll let you know. You can apply for a link exchange though :)

NOTE: The layout you are currently viewing is not version one. This is a temporary version featuring Tokio Hotel's vocalist Bill Kaulitz (in his younger days). Note that the layout has no title or version number on it... kinda strange and bare looking sad

I will be adding version one very soon. (Crap, I have a lot of stuff to add, haha. I'm multi-tasking times 100.) laughing I will be graduating high school this year, so I am also working on a graphics portfolio. (Another thing to add to the heaping list of what to add, haha).

That's all I have to update about now. I'll update in the next few days with more stuffs. See you later!

~ Kristun.

[EDIT]: Please note that some pages (the about me page, the contact page, the terms of use, etc) are not finished yet. I'm working on them right now.

[RE-EDIT]: The pages that were unfinished are finished now. But.. there is still a lot of work to be done.

Please welcome my first link exchange: Brittany of SMF.
