Pokémon Fanworx
From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Pokémon Fanworx is Ledian_X's site on BMG's server. However, it used to be on Tripod under a different name. The site is a place to download Pokémon related material and has had many different forms over the years.
At first it was a downloads section on PPN/Articuno Island and spread out on its own once Ledian_X started to make icons on the request of several Pokémon sites such as Bulbagarden, TPM and SPP.
After a stint on various servers, Ledian_X moved the site to Tripod and continued to make icons of Generation III Pokémon with the aide of several people such as Damian Silverblade, Lady Vulpix and more. Now the site has come full circle and is back on the BMG server under the name Pokémon Fanworx. Here is what the site has:
Contents |
Icons
The first part of the site are the icons which started back in 2002. Ledian_X originally had a handful of icons before that time but had since been lost. The icons were made with the help of several people from TPM including Lady Vulpix, Damian Silverblade and more.
Icons from the site have been used as smilies for BMG and SPP.
Cursors
Ledian_X's Pokémon cursors can also be found on the site. (As of this writing, the cursors aren't up just yet.) The cursors are for the most part revamped versions of the Generation I Pokémon cursors he made back in 1999. In time, the cursors will improve and include Pokémon from every generation.
The cursors serve as an alternative to the Windows Busy and Working in background animations.
Pokebuddies
The third section of the site is the Pokebuddies. Pokebuddies are based on Neko 98 and involve animations running to the mouse cursor, to it and free roaming. They generally do idle animations as well. Several of these were made years ago for Articuno Island and even a special Bulbasaur was made for BMG. Ledian_X had brought them out of storage and has them on the site. More information can be found at the site.
