I apologise again for the lack of updates. I have been flooded with hmework and other stuff over the past week or so, so I have had little time to do anything. I'll update properly with new pics tomorrow!

I apologise for the lack of updates. It was a micture of lazyness and revsing for a german speaking test coursework thingy. I'll try to make some more sigs and stuff later on today.

Sorted the images page, all of them are now hosted by tripod (*gasp*). Made two more, the 'Flamingos are Pink' one and the Laurel and Hardy 'Oldskool'. Enjoy :D

Pages are currently being made. If you are on the images page, and the images don't load, try right clicking them and clicking on 'Show Picture'. They're hosted by another host so they might not load first time for some reason.
I have just notices my gramatical (?) errors, most of them being things like an s at the end of a word instead of a d. These have been changed.

Just a quick update. I altered a few things on the website: I increased the border widths from '1' to '2'. The background colour of the table the updates are in has been changed from black to the same grey as the actual page background. The pages are still being made.
Edit (5 minutes later): Changed the border widths back down to 1, they looked quite strange.

I have made new buttons with transparent backgrounds! I saved them as PNG files before, and I'm not sure why. Anyway I made new GIF ones, which seem to work. I will probably make and upload the new pages over the weekend. You'll be able to tell when because there'll be an update telling you, and the links will actually be links.

As you probably noticed if you've been here before, there are now images below the header (which is shorter!) which should be linked to other pages. BUT, I'm too lazy to makepages at the moment. I was planning on making them yesterday, but my monitor cable broke and I had to use my old one. I never realised how huge it was when I used it all the time, but now, it takes up my entire desk! I sorted it out, and I'm back to using my normal (flatscreen) monitor, so I'm quite chuffed.
*edit* Arg! The backgrounds of the links aren't transparent :( I'll sort that out tommorrow.

Welcome to Advising Octopus, my bloggy thing. The name came from thinking up an adjective and an animal, and advising and octopus were the first that came up. As some of you can probably tell (or know), all of the images were made in photoshop. I think i made the header too tall, but I can't be bothered to change it at the moment, but I probably will in the future. There might also be some other stuff on here in the future, such as more pages and more exciting stuff.
