Hello, everyone. You all may have noticed that Pirouette has gone inactive. Yes, it's finally time for me to leave Neopets. However, I'll
not be taking down this site; I've spent too many long hours working on it and I love it to pieces, so the content is still available for you all to use under my terms & conditions! Thank you to all who made my time here so wonderful and memorable:
Sophia - My best friend on Neo, and the sister site of several of my sites (old and new).
Rika - An AMAZING, WONDERFUL person who has honestly taught me so much. I won't say goodbye to her because we still talk! :*
Delaney - I'll miss her so, so much. She inspires me in so many ways.
Pip - He's just hilarious. My Canadian buddy.
Heidi - My little skateboarder! She made WHTFP the funnest guild ever.
Well, goodbye Neopets! If any of you would like to find or contact me, I'm still making graphics, but I'm now working in the grand world of tumbling, under the name
criminoso. :)

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you help me with HTML/CSS?
No, I don't offer CSS/HTML help. If you're having trouble, you can find some coding guides at Soroptimist Directory. If you need help with the newest filters, I've put together a page here.
Can I use bits of this page's coding?
No. You will be reported if you do.
Can you make me a custom ___?
I don't have time to make customs. Sorry!
Can I use your pixels in my own layouts or graphics?
You can't use them in graphics or layouts, even if you credit me. Please don't ask!
Can I review you?
No. If you ask me this, your neomail will be deleted.
Will you join the SOTM/BOTM at my site?
If I'm looking to join, I will join on my own. Please, don't ask me, even if I've been "nominated". My answer will be no.
Can you teach me how to make a pixel?
Click here.
Can I use the scribbles/pixels in your layout?
No, you can't.
Where does your inspiration for pixels come from?
As you may have noticed, most of my pixels are Neopets items! TNT has a very broad imagination. I am also inspired by images I find on my computer - default icons, themes, and even clip-art.
I found someone stealing your content / breaking your rules!
If you see anybody doing this, please do not hesitate to report them to me, giving me your name, the thief's username, what they stole, and the url of where I can find the stolen content. Thank you!

Sugarette
Welcome to Sugarette! This section contains pixels that have been made by both myself, and my twin sister site owner, Sophia. We wanted to really unite our two sites by making pixels using both of our skills - one of us makes an outline, and the other does the coloring. The result? A beautiful and unique pixel!

Twin Sister Site


Sugarrush is a beautiful pixel and graphics site by my best friend, Sophia. She's very talented and makes gorgeous pixels, scribbles, icons, and vectors that will surely leave you in awe. Sophia and I planned to open our sites on January 1st, 2011, so we're twin sites!

Site History
Past Layouts









The Story
In mid-2010, I began making pixels. I enjoyed it, so I opened my first pixel site
Sweetness on
July 12, 2010.
Sweetness was a small resource site at first. The graphics were horrible, and I was using a premade that looked messy in popular browsers. My link-backs, made by me, were hideous.
I soon grew tired of it and gave up. I started browsing the sites listed at Soroptimist Directory and came across Kawaii Fridge (now closed), which inspired me to re-open Sweetness as a pixel site. Slowly, my skills improved and Sweetness became rather popular, ranked among the top three in most rankings. However, after a few months, I noticed CSS-thieves, people who didn't read the FAQ or rules, and I was getting busy off-neo. So, on October 27th 2010, Sweetness was closed.
I started to miss making pixels terribly. So, on Christmas day of the same year, me and my best NeoFriend Sophia made plans to open two pixel sites on the same day (January 1st, 2011) and emerge as twin sister sites! Pirouette and Sugarrush have been here ever since.
About the Owner
Although I don't normally make "about me's" anymore, I thought it would be fun to "personalize" Pirouette by adding one. :)
Facts About Me!
- Lola is not my real name, but it's close. People called me "Lola" because of my username, and I liked it, so it stuck.
- I love wearing ties.
- My sense of humour is very dry and sarcastic.
- I have a pretty bad temper and get frustrated very easily.
- My biggest dream is to enroll in the military and become an infantry or artillery officer.
- I am an American/Canadian Frenchie and proud of it!
- I'm impulsive and stubborn.
- I haven't an inch of modesty in me.
- I like to think I'm smarter than I actually am.
- The tiniest things bug me to an extreme level, and I need every single thing to be balanced.
- Space science, history, and art are my passions.
Music and Me
Like most people, I love listening to music. I dislike artists like Nicki Minaj (I absolutely despise her). I love David Bowie, Florence and the Machine, Evanescence, and Nirvana.
Currently, my favourite songs include
Hello by Evanescence,
No Light No Light by Florence and the Machine, and
Pennyroyal Tea by Nirvana.
Playground school bell rings again. Rain clouds come to play again. Has no one told you she's not breathing? Hello, I am your mind giving you someone to talk to. Hello...
