i'd say the image is by westonmi, or Sir_Darc

well all this to prove Aiko 3 has been soldiering on for all those years !

i wonder if i can find who made this image ...

ah the image is present at

http://animeartwork.net/gallery/?album=1&gallery=1&page=5&nggpage=2

which was mentioned in Daz Studio's ads

i'd say it's probably by Westonmi from http://faeriedreams.com/

ok this does not really really count, it was loaded in daz studio 2 and rendered in 2013 with Blender Cycles
but the daz scene is dated 9/12/2005, so it's an antique ;)

oh and the second image dates from 2007

Ah, memories... :smirk: I think I have some renders from way back then, but I'd have to go digging.

OK, hands up everyone who thinks that old bluey-green layout with crisp black text compares favourably with the one we just got on the store? I could read that easily and with no strain. Can't say the same for what we have now, or the last few attempts since the original (not-so-)Great Redesign Fiasco.
