Hi! I'm sugoi and I've been a fan of Japanese entertainment since I was 13. The first thing I ever watched was Fushigi Yuugi, and I got hooked with the interesting plot and the wide display of bishounens. From there, I progressed to even better (in my opinion) animes. There was, of course, the widely popular Rurouni Kenshin, which captured the hearts of many anime and non-anime fans alike. And then there was Escaflowne, which personally became my #1 favorite anime. A lot of animes followed - from cutesy shows like Ultra Maniac, to deep, disturbing ones like X|1999. It seemed, and it still seems that way, that there was something for every single personality in the world.

My love for anime dwindled after a few years, and I started going for live action shows - JDramas. To this day, I enjoy watching them. Acting is always A+, always genuine, passionate, sincere. Plots vary from the profound to the mundane, but it is the collection of scenes, the way each scene expresses each characters' emotions impeccably, and the way each scene leads to a particular feeling for the viewer, that makes the shows memorable and fun to watch.

Of course, with my love for these Japanese shows, the obvious course of action for me was to make wallpapers, and to download other people's wallpapers so I can showcase them on my computer, and remember again the beauty and prowess of each show and actor I have watched. The wallpapers, in some way, represent my current emotion.

This is when the idea started brewing in my head. Looking for other people's wallpapers have been quite a challenge to me. I constantly have to go from URL to URL to get one or two wallpapers, and looking for wallpapers categorically has been difficult, if not impossible. This is why I decided to create a website where everyone can upload their wallpapers into. Wallpapers are categorized by anime, jdrama, video game, music group, and actor. It makes for easy searching and easy viewing. I simply call the site JWallpapers.NET:

http://jwallpapers.net/

I hope that pretty soon the site will be filled to the brim with lovely wallpapers so that all fans will need to remember only one site to get their daily dose of Japanese entertainment. This livejournal will serve as the spot where I can keep track of all the changes in that website I have just created. I hope you all can visit the site one of these days.
