(old openings)
Digital art is pretty high on my list of stuff I like to mess around with. These are all images and pages that were on the front cover of my site.

You're very funny. Now give me my life back.
Um, I don't have any explanation for this one worth giving, except that I was kind of fucked up at the time. i think it's pretty, though.

4/24/98
We'll see how brave you are. We'll see how fast you'll be running.
This was meant to reflect a sort of "I'm at the very end of my patience" mood.

5/6/98
You're a little late. I'm already torn.
With part of what I refer to as the dark litany in the background, this splashpage was me focused on the upcoming final severing of my relationship.

5/18/98
Don't judge me so harsh, little girl
I was obsessed with 'from the choirgirl hotel' for several weeks. I used the words and the image to ask for forgiveness from my own 'little girls'.

6/5/98
a genius or a fool
A statue swimming on a sea of vines. Were I to do it again, I think I would have changed the colors.

6/10/98
you live for the light and your own desires
I love this one, because I think it's just plain pretty.

6/17/98
a note to my favorite girl
one of my very favorites, so far.

7/1/98
are you someone I need to be?
it's a really, really long story.

7/8/98
how many things there are to lie about
I'm not sure why, really. I just knew it had to be done.

7/22/98
to the misogynist, all sex is an act of war
this stemmed from long conversations with Melanie.

8/7/98
unmarked helicopters
I think the Soul Coughing song is hilarious, for some reason.

8/24/98
shrapnel into my own future
part of a poem called drag hour zeroish. Plain. I like it.

9/2/98
even zarathusa, another time loser, could believe in you
I'm not explaining this one, except to say that the page title is "requiem for mother of pearl" for a reason.

9/10/98
she's your cocaine
I went to see Tori and it ROCKED.

9/18/98
in over my head and happy to drown
I figured out about this time that I was in way too deep and I didn't even care.

11/1/98
there are monsters, there are angels
Me with a halo.

1/3/99
I am not your fucking target demographic
Rolling Stone thought it had me pegged.

1/22/99
august/exile
a bit of escaped yearning.

3/28/99
belong
"The breath, the song, how long? and knew, knew, belong."

4/12/99
like she's walking on a wire in the circus
remembering the dunes

4/27/99
the ways in which we drift
This pretty much marked the end of me changing the splash page very often. I really like this design.

7/99
we drift, remix
For about a year and a half, this was the splash page to /idat--it changes images and quotes when you reload it.
