I'm actually mostly done with the wallpaper, just a few finishing touches are needed. :) It looks nice so far; I applied the somewhat-finished version to my desktop to see how it would look.
Aww, I hope midterms went well. :)
Okami: Omg, love the name. >__>;
And thanks a bunch ^___^;;
Nadindi: Err, that does sound messed up. Free college/university, eh? Are other people still applicable for scholarships and financial aid? :/
Over here, I believe that in certain areas exam requirements are getting harder. However, high schools are doing certain things I'm not quite in favor of such as strongly persuading students to take AP courses even if it may not be the right choice for them. It makes the schools look better if more students are enrolled in their honors courses (like AP).. even if they're not doing so well. >__>;

Here's a general question. Does anyone here have an inferiority complex (regarding anything, like artistic ability, academic ability, etc.? I realized I may have one - I feel like my work is never good enough in comparison to other fantastic artists on other websites or compared to industry professionals (for obvious reasons). I don't get depressed, but it does kind of put a damper on things. I did some thinking and came to the conclusion that it's best not to stress so much and compare your work so much to others.. the best you can do is self-improvement by your own rate and standards.
If you've ever felt inferior (in anything), how did you improve? How did you get out of that rut? :)
Second question, much less serious:
Does anyone cosplay? If so, what have you cosplayed? If not, what would you like to, if you could? :o)

*inferior complex problem*
Personally, paying attention to the little things always helped me (and still does!).
Sometimes, I think "Meh, my drawings are SO inferior compared to others", but then I take a closer look and compare. For example "I'm still pretty good with hairstyles" or "I don't like how this artist draws eyes, I prefer how I do them" or "the angle I chose for my drawing pleases me a bit more" or something along these lines. There's always someone who's better than you, but even bad drawings can still have something good about them, like the idea, the pose, the hair etc.
Paying attention to that always cheers me up!

Answer to first question: Academic, no. The people in my US History I class make ostriches look smart, and I always make high honors (I take all the honors courses and find them to be no different from the regular ones.)
But artistic? Oh god yes. During grade school, I had an artist friend who drew in a cartoony style, while I drew in more realistic styles. I really admired her and tried to be just like her, but failed. The art teacher always praised her instead of me, and while she won "Best Artist," I won "Most Creative" - I don't know whether I was honored or disappointed. But now I'm in high school and taking Art I - following my passion. My artist friend still goes to my school and still draws, but her mom wouldn't let her into Art I, she had to take double math. My geometry honors class is VERY tough, so I'm glad I went the way I did, or my grades would be plummeting. But I'm not saying that Art I is an easy class, even though I do well in it. I spent over 24 hours (but not consecutive) on a cut-paper mosaic, and there's STILL spots that need to be touched up.
Answer to second question: Yeah, I cosplay, but only when the occasion calls for it, like halloween. I was Franziska von Karma last year, but the colors were way off - blonde wig, black whip. It was only a halloween costume. I'm going as Machi Tobaye this year, wearing a wig, sunglasses, and some kind of Father of the Bride suit o___O
I also have a ratty black wig, black silk kimono, and white sandals that, when combined, would probably equal what Morgan Fey would look like in solitary.

Well, we've all heard about my lack of academic confidence, but I guess I can tell you how I deal with it. Whenever I need to present something or teach something to someone else, I make sure I'm overly prepared and know the material without having to check over my work. On some things I still bring the cheat sheet in case I get nervous, but for the most part I try to fake confidence in myself so that others will see me that. Eventually, and with things I really do know well, the confidence is real. I hope to one day get over my confidence issue, but for now I just work on it day by day.
I have never cosplayed before, but I am planning and Older Ema one for sometime in the future.
Thanks to Blinq for the awesome sig. Click the sig, see my stuff.

Once again, I've never been of the opinion that any individual exceeded my own abilities from an academic standpoint. Sure, my Honors and Gifted classes have some pretty smart people in them, but they aren't exactly geniuses. And I'm always that freaking genius who keeps anyone from getting a curve, aces every test without studying, etc. At the same time, I'm also the freaking liberal (raised by my beloved liberal feminist mother) who is constantly spouting radical ideas, going on tangents about how the way we do things isn't working, talking about how progressive President Obama is, etc.
On the other hand, my perfectionism
in the academic regard has caused me to avoid any area in which I cannot be the best, including sports, art, music, etc., which in retrospect has been an unfortunate loss. So I'm afraid that I have taken Karma-esque precautions to protect my huge superiority complex and ego while ensuring that I never try to do anything that someone could best me at. Not exactly something I'd recommend to others; I'd offer Lunaria's suggestions as saner solutions to such issues.To answer your second question, I've never been much of a cosplayer. Heck, I never even dressed up for Halloween unless my mother made me.

I had that problem once:
Last year i was in my school and during the technologic class that is not even useful (Sometimes we don`t do anything
). Well going back to the main point... A classmate asked me to draw him a snake and I obviously accepted, but when I was drawing I had problems with the head and tail, and then another classmate offered to do it, her snake was so cool that I felt depressed, but I try to don`t think in that kind of stuff, I just feel happy with the way I draw.Cosplay:
I`ve never done Cosplay, my older sister wishes to do it sometime. Me?... I would like to try once, sometime. If I do cosplay sometime I would like to dress as Fatman of MGS2 but I would have to shave my head or use something to look balled, wear a green suit, learn to use rollerblades/skates and suddenly adquire an obsession for bombs.
Spoiler: Fatman

That's interesting how Chile doesn't have this same trend. Then again, a good amount of Americans are known for their insatiable appetite for fast food and junk. These takeouts are just trying to cater to those type of people.
My class isn't part of my feminist club/organization, it's just a class I'm taking for my major (I'm a double-major). :)
U.S. Chinese food sucks (of the stuff I've had) unless you go to Chinatown or my dad's restaurant. :B If you ever come to New York I'll give you a free gift certificate!! XD

Well... It wouldn`t hurt anyone to get it done as a sig so... ok, I would like you to make it a sig. and thanks for offering! I though it was just to show how it looked as a sig. Thanks again.
I`m surprized chinese restaurants change their menu for such a stupid reason. People go to chinese restaurants to have chinese food! Not french fries! And I thought chinese food was way better in the U.S than in Chile (cause I heard they had camel, snake, anguilla and some other stuff)
Really!? A free gift certificate!? Awesome! That`s so kind from you! XD
Thanks. It was, is and always will be a pleasure.

And I seriously hated Fatman. Instead of attacking directly, he would run around planting C4's of death that I would have to disarm while he skated around shooting me with a submachine gun. I was thinking, "How can he be so fat and yet so fast?". That guy was pretty annoying. And he didn't have much of an explanation for his "crazy bomber trained by a regretful explosives master" backstory, which I found irksome. Additionally, I thought it was such a joke when he was all "you'll never find my last bomb" as he died, and I just started shaking his body down for dog tags, and the bomb was right underneath him. Oh, yeah, great hiding spot Fatman. What's next, under your mattress? Not to mention, he was the only member of Dead Cell who didn't even appear to have supernatural powers: Vamp is immortal and can walk on water and walls, Fortune can deflect bullets and disable grenades with pure luck, and Fatman... can... set bombs, and uh... roller skate. Really, Fatman? Really?
And... I spent way too much time on that Fatman rant.
But, this reminds me of how awesome the art style for MGS was, although you barely ever saw it in the games themselves. I was rather disappointed that there didn't seem to be any such art available for MGS4, though I suppose that it only had one or two new characters.

Well I just picked him cause he was funny with all the: "Ma`cousin Nicko! Let`s go get drunk!" XD
Maybe I picked characters that put you like that cause I`m listening to Dust in the wind (that BTW makes me a little sad, I just can`t handle the lyrics:
" I close my eyes...
Only for a momment and the momment`s gone" and I`m already crying XD)
Let me think of another character: Wario! XD I make a good Wario voice and It wouldn`t be a bad idea. I hope that makes you happy XD

Notes: Ok, so. I loved making this wallpaper (omg godot, omg blue). The original image had minor water/wave lines which signified that Godot was stepping in water, so I decided to be all FANCYSCHMANCY and add "real" water to that. :BB

ADDITIONAL NOTES: Gah, this post is already so MASSIVE that I hope this doesn't get ignored too easily.
First, I really want to sincerely thank everyone who's posted/supported this thread so far. Jeez people, 73 pages. <3 We've come a long way!
Second, don't think I haven't noticed that a good amount of you lovely people have posted links to this thread in their signatures. T__T;; <3 I appreciate it so much and am incredibly flattered that you have credited me in such a fantastic way.
Third, PLEASE DO NOT FEEL OBLIGATED to include a line of text that credits me in your signature. The signature limits are very limited here so if you need the room, by all means, use it for something else more worthy!
I often put "by vickinator" in my graphics so it's already credited, don't worry!! :)
[That is not to say I don't fully appreciate your customized credit <3 I'm just trying to make things easier for anyone who's under strict sig limits.]

It really fullfills what I had in mind. It is still simple and sketchy, but you also did very well in the creative department!
Thumbs up, it is indeed awesome!
If I could, I would be pleased to give something back. Though I am really not a good drawer, I would be honored to draw something for ya. Any wishes?

My mother is still alive, if it wasn't clear.
My mother's really too busy with her job as a teacher (same profession as my father) to be an "activist," but she's ensured that her sons grow up to have respect for women (and strong disdain for sexism), and that her daughter doesn't let anything hold her back. (I must say, my little sister is also a beast at Halo, as it is something of a family activity in my home.)Vickinator wrote:

YggdrasilsSword: Oh, I apologize. I used the past tense because some older women are no longer activists. ^__^;;
That's really awesome that she's been involved in educating her sons and everything! Also, I find it adorable that your little sister plays Halo. :]

That was a comic edit, so the original comic was not made by me. If you'd like to do me an edit like that one, I'd be pleased of course. Do you want something like that or a comic I drew myself?

I hear ya about the art courses. I was often praised but damn, there was this one guy in my general art/drawing class who literally could produce MASTERPIECES in one class period. I envied him so much, but I had social support from my friend in the class. We often laughed at our own artwork in a joking way and it made the class fun rather than OH GOD I'M SO HORRIBLE IN COMPARISON TO THIS GUY. :o)
That's so cooooool; do you have pictures?
I LOVE MACHI COSPLAY. You must take pictures!~
Do you go to cons? I'll be going to Otakon this year. ^___^

About the artist guy: there was someone like that in my school too, but he was 3 grades ahead of me. He's a college freshman now. His name was George and he drew old-school celebrities like Marilyn Monroe and Lucille Ball. He was as close to a prodigy as our art class ever had. The stuff was photorealistic. What's more, he was supernice and even gave me his senior picture, which is sitting framed on my art desk at home!
About the cosplay: I don't cosplay in front of the camera, due to household rules, my age, and privacy reasons - so no pictures. But I can tell you about the costume. It's a Daymor Couture petite suit I had, all frilly on the neck and sleeves. It IS a mother of the bride suit, but I made it look ten times less feminine with the whole Machi motif. The only problem is that the bottom is a skirt, and I'll have to substitute something there. The wig is the perfect length and color.
I don't attend cons, but I'd like to. The library at which I work went last year (I forget to where though.) Shoulda went.

Yeah, it always seems like every school has that ONE (or several) person who's absolutely amazing at art. I wish I had that sort of talent where it's like you doodle for two minutes and the result is absolutely incredible. *can dream*
I'm glad to hear that he was nice :) Unfortunately, the kid who was in a grade lower wasn't too nice but I wouldn't call him a jerk, either.
Understood about the picture, no worries. :)
Ah, wigs can make or break the costume in most situations. Where did you get the wig?
My university actually has a sci-fi (but includes anime/video games) convention. This year is the first year that the convention is off campus which completely sucks because this is my last year.
It was so awesome to go to a lecture hall and instead of attending a boring class, a lesson on origami by the voice actor of Winry Rockbell (FMA) was presented there. It was a surreal experience. Imagine seeing Darth Vader or some other random cosplays walking through your campus. AWESOME. ;___;
Perrydotto: Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't know.
I have seen your drawn comics though and they're as awesome. :)
I really enjoy the combination of drawing and sprites, so could you incorporate the sprite heads into a drawn comic? I would love that <33 (If it's too difficult, please don't bother. Anything will do; I'm not picky.)
Selom: The pink ranger was actually my all-time favorite (*eyerolls at childhood*) but in that year, all the pink ranger costumes were sold out by the time my mom took me to the store :(
I liked the yellow ranger though, because she resembled me more in terms of the asian appearance. (But eh.. the yellow ranger being asian and the black ranger being black... *eyeroll*)
I enjoy reminiscing about my childhood. Anyone have a particular toy or craze or whatever they like to reminisce about?

Selom: The pink ranger was actually my all-time favorite (*eyerolls at childhood*) but in that year, all the pink ranger costumes were sold out by the time my mom took me to the store :(
I liked the yellow ranger though, because she resembled me more in terms of the asian appearance. (But eh.. the yellow ranger being asian and the black ranger being black... *eyeroll*)
I enjoy reminiscing about my childhood. Anyone have a particular toy or craze or whatever they like to reminisce about?

Great job on that Max Galactica sig.
The Pink Ranger was my favorite as well, but I never dressed up as a Power Ranger for Halloween. Even when I was young I though it was odd that they made those choices for the Black and Yellow Rangers. What were they thinking?
My favorite show growing up was Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I used to watch it in the afternoons on our local station (It came on after Transformers). I also got up to watch it on Saturday mornings on CBS. I liked a lot of shows on that CBS Saturday morning line-up during the years I watched TMNT: Alvin and the Chipmunks, Muppet Babies, Pee Wee's Playhouse, Garfield and Friends, Hey Vern, It's Earnest!, Beakman's World, Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventures, and Mother Goose and Grimm.
Okay, some of those shows weren't that great, but they filled my Saturday mornings with happiness from the late eighties into the mid nineties.
Thanks to Blinq for the awesome sig. Click the sig, see my stuff.

Ah, wigs can make or break the costume in most situations. Where did you get the wig?
My university actually has a sci-fi (but includes anime/video games) convention. This year is the first year that the convention is off campus which completely sucks because this is my last year.
It was so awesome to go to a lecture hall and instead of attending a boring class, a lesson on origami by the voice actor of Winry Rockbell (FMA) was presented there. It was a surreal experience. Imagine seeing Darth Vader or some other random cosplays walking through your campus. AWESOME. ;___;

I got the wig at a halloween store...it was originally for my Franziska von Karma cosplay (yes, I went as a blonde Fran - that is a broken costume in and of itself, even though I have seen blonde Frans before.) Then I played AJ and I'm like "wow, this wig is sooo Machi~" All I had to do was tack the bangs up into a wing, and everything was a-ok.
And that convention sounds like pure win. I know someone who cosplayed Trucy on her campus (I'm best friends with her sister) and nobody knew what it was all about. Poor girl - more colleges need little diversions like that.

Over here, I believe that in certain areas exam requirements are getting harder. However, high schools are doing certain things I'm not quite in favor of such as strongly persuading students to take AP courses even if it may not be the right choice for them. It makes the schools look better if more students are enrolled in their honors courses (like AP).. even if they're not doing so well. >__>;

College here is free, from ages 16-18. There are limited scholarships, though and they're usually biased towards private schools. >_>
I hate it when people 'encourage' the students to do something. Makes it feel like there's no choice in the matter, and that they have to do what they're told to be successful in life, which sucks.

Here's a general question. Does anyone here have an inferiority complex (regarding anything, like artistic ability, academic ability, etc.? I realized I may have one - I feel like my work is never good enough in comparison to other fantastic artists on other websites or compared to industry professionals (for obvious reasons). I don't get depressed, but it does kind of put a damper on things. I did some thinking and came to the conclusion that it's best not to stress so much and compare your work so much to others.. the best you can do is self-improvement by your own rate and standards.
If you've ever felt inferior (in anything), how did you improve? How did you get out of that rut? :)

Don`t worry I don`t mind you didn`t make such a change in the sig. It`s still awesome for me.
I didn`t know you liked the Power Rangers!
I really never liked the same things as the other kids like Power Rangers or Dragon Ball Z, I usually was the different one. And in that way I started finding friends as weird as I`m XD. I really loved "Rocko`s modern life" XD it was my favorite cartoon.
Just like you Vicki:
A general question... Were you the different boy/girl in your school when you were younger? If you were... What kind of things did you liked that others didn't? Or backwards... What kind of things did the other kids liked that you didn't?
Thanks. It was, is and always will be a pleasure.

I'm currently drowning in school work, so a drawn comic isn't possible right now, I'm afraid.

I should know how drowning in schoolwork feels like, so don't worry about it.
Gray Godot: Ok, good. :]
I was a huge fan of the Power Rangers (the original cast) when I was young. My friends loved Rocko's Modern Life, I personally never saw many episodes of it. You shouldn't feel like that's a weird choice though - I know lots of people who liked Rocko.
Uh, well, in elementary school I was the only asian kid in my entire grade. My school wasn't well-known for its diverse population. >__>; So, I stood out in that aspect. Besides appearances, I was kind of quirky, weird, and quiet/shy. Other little girls enjoyed playing Princess stories while I got bored of them quick. Sure, I played with Barbies but instead of going OH YAY *insert hyperfeminine voice and dreams of living in a castle and doing nothing for the rest of life* I would actually play out these "elaborate" stories where there was always this powerful, evil witch character and then she would capture other characters (like a mini action figure). Then, the other characters usually got entrapped forever in a dungeon or something. o__o'''
Um, I loved (and still have a great passion for) technology. I used to have one of those Vtech kid's computers with many minigames that tests you on basic math and vocabulary.
I also loved stickers. I had over six full sticker books and lots of kids liked to trade stickers with me during recess.
I watched Sailor Moon a lot as a kid. I loved Sailor Mars. :B
Ummmmm... I don't think I was too different in comparison to other children. I would consider myself as more nerdy and definitely shy.
How about you? (or anyone else?)
Nadindi: Ha, I wish college was free here. Then again, we have university for ages 17-21, for most students. My tuition per year is about $14,000. Oddly enough, my graduate school tuition will be less when it is normally not.
Yeah, I hear you. Let me choose what I want to do! :|
What kind of sports? I've never been a sport/athletic-type of person, so I've felt the same way. Nowadays, I do yoga and pilates with some friends. It's really fun! :)
I believe I've heard of some cons in England.. not sure where they would be in relation to where you are. Travel certainly is an annoyance. -__-'' Otakon is approximately 4-5 hours from where I am. AnimeNEXT is only an hour away (New Jersey) but frankly, it can't compare to Otakon so I don't bother to go. I may go this year just because I like meeting new people at cons. :)
I would love to cosplay Trucy or Maya as well! ^__^
Asaki: You're so lucky to have found the wig at a store. Most people have to buy them on Ebay or Amphigory.
Awww, that's a shame about the girl who cosplayed Trucy. I would love to see some random students cosplaying on my campus!
On Halloween, I see some really great costumes on campus and I wish I could take pictures but I feel weird doing so. After all, at conventions it's perfectly normal to be like "CAN I HAVE YOUR PICTURE"... however, it's not the same social environment on a college campus :X
Furuba: PM'ed the result!
Baron: Great question! I tend to listen to music while working on graphics because music puts me into a good, relaxed mood. As for particular songs that inspire me... it depends, but not really. I'm unfortunately not a big music-buff like many other people I know (people who know all about a certain band/singer's music, listen to it 24/7... etc.) so I don't have a specific, deep song that "speaks to me."
My musical taste is in almost all genres of music so my playlist is like randomwoah. :o)
How about you? Does music inspire you for anything?
Lunaria: Thanks! :)
Haha, and then when they did a cast change, the yellow ranger "became" black, while the black ranger became asian. @__@
I liked TMNT too. I asked my parents for a TMNT figure (Michelangelo's came with a pizza accessory) but they declined and said it was a "boy's toy." :( Boo, gendered toys.
Yeah, I watched the Saturday morning line-up too. I don't remember most of the shows I watched but I never watched most of what you mentioned. >__<;

I used to be really into pokemon (the original 150, I don't care for the new ones, but I'm giving them a chance with Platinum.) I still have a shirt with Misty on it from when I was a little girl. It was like a nightdress on me then and it's still pretty long on me now. I still wear it sometimes.
I also remember having a set of Nickelodeon pajamas with the characters and logos for various shows on them (I remember the Angry Beavers being on them, the Figure it Out logo, the big yellow screaming "All That" mouth, among others.)
Finally, I remember seeing the VERY first commercials for Invader Zim back in 1999 - they just showed the Irken symbol and the date of the show's premiere. I remember being baffled out of my mind and complaining about why they just didn't come right out and say what the heck it was. XD

Maybe you were watching one of the other Saturday morning line ups when Ninja turtles wasn't on? There were many to choose from then, and I'll look up some more cartoons later.
I used to watch Sailormoon all the time. I got so mad when they got to the middle of the second season and then went back to the beginning.
That was funny on Power Rangers when they did that switch. Then they made the red ranger Hispanic/Indian. Correct two ethnic stereotypes and add a third I guess.
I was like you when I was in school, Vicki. I was shy and quiet (and often mistaken for a Chinese person, but I think I've told that story before). I didn't have alot of friends, but the ones I did have were very close to me.

I`m not saying that Rocko was weird... well you have to admit it som,etimes it was a little bit weird. Anyway what I`m saying is that I didn`t liked what mos`t of the other kids liked, what you were telling about playing with barbies... it reminds me of me XD I used to play with my toys in that kind of way that we and some friends could almost an entire hour messing around with multiple stories or just a big one... one thing in common is that every story involved at least 35 explosions aprox. XD.
If I have to consider myself shy... no, I`m not. When talking if I consider myself different, I would say I was different: In school, the other boys allways loved DBZ, Power Rangers, and football soccer and none of those things interested me, always when something became popular I wasn't interested in it. Me and my friends used to have those trading card games.
If it is of being nerdy... more or less, I'm not sure.
My sister watched Sailor Moon (She even saw the live action version XD.
I never saw it entirely to be honest, maybe in boredom I watched half a episode.
Spoiler: Some stories and Why I HATE soccer.
Enough of those subjects...

Sometimes music inspires me, when I'm drawing or in the computer.
Sometimes some songs with a fast beat, make me walk faster without realizing it.
Sometimes music makes me really sad cause it remembers me of some things... I avoid listening to "So happy together" by the turtles it reminds me of the first time I declared myself to a girl... and it's obvious that it didn`t go so well XD.
Well hope you liked what I wrote. Bye Vicki.
Thanks. It was, is and always will be a pleasure.

Sorry I haven't been talking a lot 
I just tend to follow what everyone is saying
I watched Sailor Moon when I was younger - and whenever I hear the title music I always get this really creepy sense of Deja vu...
I remember DBZ too. There's a new live action film out soon I think! (sorry if already been mentioned) Let's see....I remember Power Rangers, TMNT, Yugioh, Pokemon. That kinda stuff. It brings back memories from when I was little
Ah, happy days. If I watched them now, I'd probably get lynched or something
D:
And since your request list has.....emptied....(I think Kimmy must have died or something)...please can you make me a new sig and avatar? Pretty pretty please with whipped cream and chocolate sauce and a cherry and sprinkles on top?

I hope you like it! I'm ok at drawing, but at least it didn't take as long as I thought to do. (Though paint sucks and the quality was actually better before...)

Anyway, hum...let's see, the most recent questions are...the inferiority complex and the reminiscences we have from the past?
Well, I never had any problem with my academic studies...wait, there was never much to study. As in, I never studied much beyond the regular school time, and even so I got good grades in general. Recently, they dropped a bit, but nothing that will hurt me big, hopefully...I just think I'll have to pay more attention. Anyway, this had never been an issue...but I do feel very inferior relating to art. As I am totally hopeless in that area, I kinda feel crushed whenever I see nice pieces of art, good sprites, etc...which, here, in this awesome site, is quite an often happening, so many talented people here! And I can't draw for my life...at my best condition, I write fanfics. And mostly in Portuguese, because I don't think I master enough English to write well, yet. As in sports, I can play volley, basketball, and nothing else, I think...but I never felt inferior in this matter.
For something completely different, I remember that I used to love watching Knights of Zodiac, Pokemon, and even Sailor Moon (though I would often neglect mentioning this last one from my classmates on purpose, out of embarassment). I also had this Phoenix Ikki's costume my mother bought me, and must be still hid somewhere VERY DEEP in the big mess that is my room. ^^"
I never played much with toy cars or dolls or action figures...but I remember I had a set of little soldiers from two different armies that I liked to play with, making them combat each other.
"Ah, the days of my youth...like the scent of fresh lemon...you see."
Strange how often I'm using that sentence lately. Maybe I'm getting old.
Anyway, your work is still incredibly amazing! Well, I will keep coming back to pester you every now and then. ^^
Keep up your good work! <3

Sad to say, I've left C-R. I may still occasionally come on, but, y'know...
I just lost interest, but, this is still an awesome site.
I'll live on through my sprites, I hope. And my major contributions to the Max fanclub. ^_^
Bye ;_; ^_^
