Credit card companies love it when young college students go into credit card
trouble... because mommy and daddy are always there to bail them out. Anyways,
where'd that continent-hopping stuff came from... like that's pretty far out.
Good luck on visiting them all... as for me, I'll just stick Google Earth. Beats
the hell out of travel expenses.
Ahh yes so true. The only difference is that it's my mom that is in debt. I'll
have to bail them out!^_^
I've always wanted to travel. I've just made up my mind and I'm going to do it.
My dad says it won't happen but I'm determined no matter what is pesamistic
ideas are!^_^
Google Earth is a terrible thing. Everytime I look on it I just want to jump
through the screen and be there but I can't!:( It makes me sad. It does beat
travel expenses, but you miss out on all the people you could meet. You don't
get to put your feet in sand and climb a new mountian.
If you're this busy while you're studying how about when you're working... what
do you do for fun now, misa? Stack boxes higher than you? Come on, you must miss
hangin' out with us a lil' bit...
.... in fact working will probably be more hectic than uni right now. I've had
several friends in the same course (different universities but it doesn't
matter) go into the profession and find themselves working 12 hours +. It
doesn't compare to menial work, but when you have several all nighters in a row,
meh.
As for what I do in my spare time, I have other things to organise. Of course I
will drop in every now and then, but I doubt Minitokyo will be my priority from
now on. Too much stuff to deal with normally u_u
Quote by jakulitoThis piece is very
good. I love the look and feel of it.
You did a great job on the linework on the character and the overall texture
complements the piece very well.
Thank you!

Quote by jakulitoIt looks really good
though the text on the right side ain't lookin' too good for me. It just pulls
you away from the feel of the wallpaper. You could try incorporating it in more
subtly to, just like you said, provide connection if it does indeed turn out to
be a series.
Anyways, nice work... after a long waller's block you bring out some good
stuff.
To be honest, I had no idea what to do with the text. The resolution of the
original wallpaper was OK for my monitor, but the standard resolutions at MT
didn't include mine, so I had to make it a bit wider. And since I didn't have
anything else to fill the extra space with, I thought, hey, why not put the text
there? ^_^; I'm not very fond of it either, though.

I dunno about your parents but for me, life is what you make it. Fill it with
pain and you're definitely not gonna enjoy it. I suggest you just face it head
on, go with it like I do; Enjoy every moment.
Thanks Thoughs are kind words I needed to hear. But to lighten the mood of our
subject I have 5 more days left of High School and then freedom............ for
the summer. Then off to college. But while I'm in college I plan to see the
world and rack up a huge debt!^_^ But who cares about money. My
goal is to visit every continent before I'm 40!^_^ I don't think I'll do it
because Antartica is freezing but the other 6 look good! I've already got North
America so I have 5 left to go.
Is that fire on the background? Its kinda hard to tell. And IMO, it doesn't
really go well with the foreground. I understand what's the meaning of this
piece but it just doesn't feel in sync with the character and flowers and
all.
Click me!
The areas highlighted by red are areas of contrast. Light foreground on light
background doesn't go very well. Though the large strokes does help defining
your character more. You could also try giving it a more defined blazing inferno
background. The more animated it looks or the more sense of motion it conveys
will definitely bring the focus on the character.
The flowers on the upper left side doesn't look balanced (highlighted by white).
They look like they were just copy-pasted on there. Also the branch that's
behind the character looks like its part of her hair (highlighted with cyan). It
looks off. I suggest moving it around her silhouette and try to work out its
angle and position. And I don't know if I should mention this but you're
signature is rather large and the Vista-esque taskbar... definitely
overkill.
Overall you got great stuff here. I love the detail work on the flower and
characters but its definitely the background that needs work.
I suppose it is fire. Since all I did was replicate the picture, I didn't really
feel like making detailed flame work. I wouldn't really know how anyways. I do
see the areas of concern that you brought up that will be worked on though. I
know computer screens are different...but the area around the hair is pretty
distinct where the head and branch are. I didn't know how big the signature was
either since I made it for my 1920 x 1200 laptop, but I made it on my sister's
1440 x 990 laptop (parents...). I usually make the signature so it is precisely
covered by the toolbar at the bottom. But I couldn't really tell, so I guessed.
Quote by jakulitoStep 2? You've got a
list for that sorta stuff? Maybe you've been babied too much... heheehe
j/k
No, I have no plans actually. The step 2 is more to help me face the future. My
parents have pretty much told me that life is nothing but pain and there is no
fun in it. But yes i have been babied too much. I can admit it. But I have had
my share of work and pain. Though Having a list might help me out!
Quote by jakulitoI opted not to post
immediately waiting for a little more interaction from you, Maple but I guess
I'd have to just post now.
Anyways on to my rev-rant... wait, I ain't got a rev-rant... I'd just be saying
what sho said. And no, you don't write like sho. He's conceited. Good review,
Maple. I'd suggest a little humour since I get a sense of reading a brochure
with this one, I ain't referring to the content just the feeling.
I love you, Maple... sho's a liar.
Oh right, I just replied
in his guestbook to be sure he'd see it
Thanks. I'm if I were to attempt humour, it'd come out like shoujoboy's
attempts... or worse DX But I'll try, for you.
Quote by jakulitoI got a weird feelin
when you said baby... I thought to myself: "18 huh, kids these days...
hehehehe"
Thanks I'm glad I can inspire that weird feeling. I
like how you added kids these day at the end there. I tell my friends that we
are still just kids and I get yet at because they are 18 year old adults ready
for life...........and I'm not. That is why I have College step 2 in
preparations for life!
Sorry this is a bit late, but it's just that everytime I read this I laugh and
think it's so true...
I'm now very cautious about where and what I post.
Ngayon ko lang nabasa to pero totoo nga.
nakakatawa! haha!

dali lang gumawa ng widscreen walls noh!
punta ka sa any designing software then create a new file and type mo dun sa
size/reso section
width is 1920 tapos sa height is 1200 pixel tapos you can now create a wallie
you usually do
Thanks for the comment and thank you much more for taking time and checking it
out!
Really appreciate it!
Well how've you been doin'? We haven't posted in each others' guestbook in like
ages!
Yah it has been a while.
I've been doing well. I'm off to college in August, so my parents are having a
hard time. They keep trying to get me to stay at home. Since I'm the baby in the
family they are afraid of being alone again. And It will be my first time out in
the simiworld!^_^
What have you been up to? I hope that only good things have happend.
~See yah Later!
Anong araw ka pupunta sa World Cyber Games, kukumpletuhin mo yung 10 - 13? Sa saturday lang ako makakapunta, sa sunday di me pwede e.
wait and see for my new userpage layout.. hehehe, though nakalimutan ko na ayusin page ko.
