Daystar Design ~ Anime and Video Game Bishounen Avatars, Layouts, and Wallpapers ~ Version 12.0

Anti Yaoi Fans ~ CAA ~ Dreamer's Light ~ MyrrhLynn.NET ~ Saint Cloud Library

Welcome to Daystar Design, the biggest site on the internet featuring anime, manga, and video game guys. You won't find any "cute anime girl!!" graphics here (although we do have some couple/group ones). If you don't know what a bishounen (also called bishie) is you can visit the About Us page for our personal defintion of it, or check out the Wikipedia entry for a more official explanation of the term. You can also check the About Us page for info about the series we have chosen not to include on this site. So whether you're fangirl looking for graphics of your favorite guy, or you are just sick of all the girl graphics out there then you've come to the right place!

The word "daystar" is a noun that can mean: 1. Morning Star or 2. Sun. I wish I could say I had a deep meaning for picking that word but I just wanted a word that started with the letter "D" and although I wanted "DreamWorld" PegasusRider said "Can you picture Squall (from FF series) saying DreamWorld Design?" So yeah that was the reason for choosing the name. XD

In case you are wondering a "Bishounen" is a Japanese word that means "beautiful youth" and it usually means a guy that is very pretty and sometimes girly looking. If you want more information you should check out the entry in wikipedia for the word, as it has a lot more information. Here at Daystar Design we consider it to mean basically "any male that isn't ugly" this can be a human or a non-human such as Sesshoumaru from the series Inuyasha or Haruka from the series Tactics. We do NOT accept graphics of non good looking males (Jaken from the series Inuyasha would be a prime example of a male that would be rejected). You probably noticed that we do accept couple graphics, so as long as a qualifying male is in it somewhere it is considered acceptable. ^_^

We do NOT accept characters from hentai, yaoi, or yuri series. Sometimes depending on the context an exception will be made such as we have a wallpaper of the anime series Air even though it is based on a hentai game because the anime did not have any major objectionable content in it.

Our goal is to become the number one source for graphics of all the anime and video game bishounen. We can only do this though with your help (so please submit graphics!). We have plenty of bandwidth and space to be sure to come back often and tell your friends about it.

This site was started on June 8th 2003. This page started as something of a joke. It was actually just suppose to be a way for me (MyrrhLynn) to mess around with PHP and give PegasusRider a chance to practice making webpages. After we realized how cool it could become though we decided to open it up to the public. Originally it was named Hottie Haven, but then after it was about 3 months old we found out there was a porn site that had stolen our name! Needless to say we changed our name pretty fast. In the beginning of August 2003 we changed our focus to be more on the graphics and less on the guys (meaning that originally we were going to have guy bios and stuff with only a few wallpapers or avatars but then I decided I didn't want to do all that work so I changed it to be all graphics and no guy bios). ^_^

In Febuary 2005 I took down the button, banners, and spash page sections. There are so many of those on other sites and we really never added to them anyway so I figured they were a waste of space. That way we could also just focus on Avatars, Layouts and wallpapers (which were the more popular parts of the site anyway). Also in December-April 2004 I worked on making Daystar updatable by the staff without them having to use HTML code.
