130% Mad Crazy Cel-ery [v.The Beautiful People]
Welcome!
I guess I've been into cel collecting for a fair while now, though I'm certainly not
one of the real old hands in the field. I'd like to think I've amassed a decent collection in the time
I've been into the hobby. I realize full well that they aren't all the perfect, "A+
Centered, Face-forward" cels, but I love them and I think each of them have
something special, even if they aren't perfect by some arbitrary standards.
While there may be a lot of "white space" here, I hope you enjoy them anyway. I know
I do.
I started this page out as a fun thing to do, to catalog my cels and display them,
as much for myself as for everyone else. I realize I can't hold a candle to a lot of
the galleries out there, but that's not really my goal. I just want to share what I
have got, and have an easy way to look at 'em all when I can't do it in person. ^_^
What I lack in monstrously expensive perfect shots, I make up for in feeling and insanity.
This page started out for that reason, some time ago, initially simply known as "Mala's
Cel Page." I used up all my strange naming on my main page, in those days.
Some of you may actually remember it from those very early days, and at least you know
how much this place has improved, compared to what it was (even if that's not saying a
whole heck of a lot..) The full
title, gained in early fall '00, was "Addle-Minded Mala's 130% Mad Crazy Cel-ery,"
usually shortened to the slightly-more-simple "130% Mad Crazy Cel-ery." I've
decided to use that as the official title now, and still have no intention of
explaining it. ^___^ I'll probably just
keep shortening things, and some day the page name will be "y."
I should note on the main page, these cels are generally not for sale. Please
read the page, conveniently labeled "Sales," listed above, if you want that kind of info.
And please, have a pleasant stay, and feel free to look at my other stuff if you
were linked here directly.
Updates: 08 February 2005
Once again, it's been quite a long time since my last update. However, I haven't as many cels to update
this time around. I'm finishing up with my final year of veterinary medical school, and finances have been tight.
I was able to take a trip to AX last summer, which was the source of many of the cels from this update. After
AX, I went on a long cel-hiatus, with the exception of one (very lovely) purchase from Mandarake's Big Web
Auction.
33 cels for today's update, bringing the gallery total (if my math is correct) up to 1847. I bet something
important happened in the year 1847. I couldn't tell you what -- let's make that your homework assignment, shall
we?
This update is dedicated to the absolutely-faboo, lovely, and wonderful yaten,
without whom I would not have two shiny, lovely
new GUITAR CELS. T_T (Note to self: Firstborn child -> yaten).
There's also one other homygoodness cel
updated to the VoH TV section, and a Big O cel with which I am quite enamoured. Many new Powerstone
opening (JACK!) credits cels, as well. A couple of beautiful cels
up in the Tenshi ni Narumon section, several new VHD: Bloodlust cels, and a few assorted others which -- as
usual -- may be found by the sections marked with an asterisk ("*").
It's also time, once again, for a layout-image update. I finally made it through all the title
categories (villains, masked men, and the horribly disfigured,) and figured it might be nice to
move on to the pretty folks...because I do collect those too. Sometimes.
(Interested in Past Updates?)
Special Note: As a joint project, my ex-roommate and I added alt tags to
some of the cels. Well, I mostly just typed things, and he came up with
the nearly all of the captions.. I also did my best to curb his vulgarity and make
these acceptable for a public page, but there is still some..questionable humour and
minor cursing. Nothing more than you'd see in an issue of Toy Fare, for example.
As such, if you are young, impressionable, or easily offended, I'd recommend you simply
not hold your little mousey over the pictures. If you're an adult, and possessed of
a decent sense of humour, please enjoy. Also, please be aware that these captions,
while produced at a very, very late hour, have no mistakes. Everything is
intentional. These jokes are the
result of prolonged exposure to Awake. And lead paint. Lots of lead paint.
As I am no longer living with said ex-roommate, and we only did them on one occasion, only a
small portion of
the cels actually have the alt tags. It's like an Easter Egg hunt, but without
the eggs. Or the rabbit.
Additional credit for the captions goes to: MeowMeow Kitty, DumbDumb Rei, and
FunFun Sleep Deprivation. And the letter "F."
