Hey! Thanx for liking my Cowboy Bebop scans... I really like this anime, which I
consider one of the best of all times. Thanx for your kind comments! Sorry to
answer kind of late..but I had a lot to deal with the past months... See ya!
Ciao ciao!
hey there appreciate the coment on my pic Sai/saku
and I know Sai doen't wear the shirts that long but if you were cold would
you?
:D LOL
I don't beleive in Tenten/Neji (p>O<p)
and Sasu/saku is alright but sasuke is obviously with *caugh* I think you know
who I mean LOL not really I think he might like Sakura but honestly Sakura is
way nicer to Naruto so there is a chance and Sai obviously likes her *go
Sai!*
Sai is kool :X
I dropped Sasuke ever since he betrayed konoha so............I can't really
support his otherwise but hey we all like different things and if Sasuke can
redem himself there should be no reason why he can't be with Sakura right?
:D but for now I stick with Sai/saku
glad you even took the time to look at the pic........I really appreciate it

The time limit is 2 weeks... so start as soon as you get this gbook entry
^^
Category: Anime(Or Game) wallpapers (or vectors)
Villainy: definition AS follows
1. The line for this contest is 'The line between insanity and genius is
measured only by success.'. This time, think of it more as inspiration, than an
actual guideline.
2. When walling, just try to capture a feeling. Really make the wall`s point
come across without having to tell anyone anything. Whatever it is you`re going
for, make it come alive.
This time, no real limitations on scans or categories. Go nuts!
HAVE FUN!
Rules:
1. Tutorials are allowed to help you, but bear in mind that it is very obvious
when you use tutorials
2. Vectors are allowed.
3. Make sure your wallpaper is at least 1280x960 pixels in size! Other
resolutions 1280x1024 and 1600x1200. Believe me, they are fun to make. And
people love em more. The bigger the better. Now you know that size matters, at
least in wallpapers.
Judging criteria:
1. Technicality/ balance of overall composition
2. Colour combination
3. Originality/ artistic expression (message being carried out)
4. Overall feel/ reception of audience

3. For votes, you have three votes 1, 2 and 3. First being the one you like the

entries
CLOSING date: 28th August
SCANS: Kino no Tabi - any image from Kino no Tabi on minitokyo or off.

in your wallpaper, just make a wallpaper based on the motorads) with grainy
manga scans and clean lined anime scans to boot.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Large size wallpaper
- provide a link to a wallpaper that covers all the other skills you couldn't
display in this wallpaper when posting in the guestbook.

The {Now Fornightly} UnderAppreciated Group Competition
We`re crazy, but at least that`s a good thing..usually!
As soon as this guestbook entry is time marked 2 weeks ago, your time is
up!
WELP! First time around for lil ol` Teryon to be doing this, so bear
with.
What was Round one for?
Round one was to increase the activity.
What was Round two for?
Scabbing favourites
What was Round three for?
To blow your mind away. Haha.
What is Round Four For?
Well, to see what we can do.
This fortnight's theme is QUOTATION
The time limit is 2 weeks... so start as soon as you get this gbook entry
^^
This means the category Anime wallpapers (or vectors)
STIMULUS: definition AS follows
1. Below ye shalt find a quote from a song.
2. Based on that quote, ye shall make a wall.
3. In your wall you have to have something dealing with taking chances, living
life..fire is optional
4. Here`s the whole fun of it all:
You must use a less-popular scan! Thats right, none of those that get the 100+
favs, or are seen on every wall. I know its a little vague, if you have
questions feel free to bug me eternally(since I came up with this
limiter).
5. When you submit your wallpaper in the group guestbook, have the link to you
wall and state your category, along with fav #. Anything under 20, basically, is
alright, again unless its been used a million times.
Here is your quote:
"Life is not tried it is merely survived when you're standing outside the
fire." - Garth Brooks "Standing Outside the Fire"
Use this as a basis to create the theme of your wall. So go get the song and
listen to the music, or just go with it as ye will! Most importantly, HAVE
FUN!
Rules:
1. Tutorials are allowed to help you, but bear in mind that it is very obvious
when you use tutorials
2. You can just have a single crotchet or whatever floating randomly on the
page. It can be tiny, but make sure the judges can see it, cuz if they
can�t you
didn�t go by the theme!
(Even so, minimalising the theme to such an extent is pretty sneaky anyways
lol)
3. Vectors are allowed.
4. Make sure your wallpaper is at least 1280x960 pixels in size! Other
resolutions 1280x1024 and 1600x1200 Believe me, they are fun to make. And people
love em more. The bigger the better. Now you know that size matters

Well, it mustâve been the most busiest season, but heck we still have
the entries for ya ^_^ Also, this entry has arrived early in your guest book,

notifications in your guestbook or tidying the pages, but never fear ^_^ The

1. Below youâll find a cute looking gif file. It should be flapping around.
2. Use that gif as a stimulus. No, it
ainât the wings youâre meant to concentrate on. Itâs the
blasted music.
3. In your wallpaper you must have something music related. It can be in a hall, you can have the Sydney Opera
House in the back, a stereo on the table, a character wearing headphones, a few
obscure musical notes, a band score as the back, a CD shelf, a CD store, Michael
Jackson, an iPod, sony: it doesnât matter how large or small the
reference to music is. It just has to be there. And if you âreally-
want, have something flapping as well
4. Hereâs the whole fun of it all:
Your wallpaper must be submitted into a category
with LESS THAN 100 items IN IT
So say goodbye to that Naruto scan with Sasuke holding the guitar-
yeah!
5. When you submit your wallpaper in the group guestbook, have the link to you
wall, state your category and roughly state the
number of gallery items in it. You do not need to tell us 99 or 67, just
tell us close to 100 or 70, but it cannot have MORE than 100 gallery
items.

The {Now Fornightly} UnderAppreciated Group
Competition
It's more frequent now so that we can get a cycle going... and I realised how
restless the judges will get XP
As soon as this guestbook entry is time marked 2
weeks ago, your time is up!
The last theme has been quite a success to say, considering it was the first ^_^
This time, things will get even -more- interesting. You may have realised that
the themes have not been particularly easy, but after all, it's a challenge ^_^
You learn... ehehe
What was Round one for?
Round one was to increase the activity. Once other members realise that people
actually are entering, hopefully we'll get more members, and thus more entries.
There will be a thread that'll have the comp details and such... I'll get around
to it...
What is Round two for?
After realising that it is hard to get favourites in the original section this
time I have decided to revert back to the trashy scan idea. Haha. Anyway. If you
were a little upset about missing out on faves last time, this time you'll get
the faves for sure. Well, read on first
This fortnight's theme is APPROPRIATION
The time limit is 2 weeks... so start as soon as you get this gbook entry
^^
This means the category Anime wallpapers (or
vectors)
APPROPRIATION: definition AS
FOLLOWS
1. Below are three links to three very popular animes or categories
2. You can use any style you want. Don't care if you grunge, vector, abstract,
flip it, rotate it, crop it, cut it, invert it- it's up to you.
3. All three scans have some sort of "bad quality" to it.
4. It could be that there is text covering the chara, or that it is hard to
extract; either way, that is part of the challenge.
5. Pick ONE of the scans I have provided
links for. These images were selected pretty much at random, taken into
consideration what other walls have done. These are generally the not so popular
scans people wall.
6. Appropriation - Please read the following sentence I have typed:
There is no darkness where there is
light
Use this as a basis to create the theme of your wall. It ties in well for all 3
scans, so nobody should have any trouble. You do not need to incorporate it into
the title or whatever, but it will be nice if you copy and paste that phrase,
followed by what you thought when you read the line. This should be reflected in
the wall.
SCANS
Here are the 3 scans. Choose ONE. The categories are Sumi Keiichi, Tenjho Tenge and AIR respectively. They are popular
and high quality scans, that are not as popular and not walled as much. I
haven't seen any of the three anime, and it doesn't matter at present. Choose
your scan wisely. No scan takes precedence over the others, but makes sure your
wall will reflect the theme sentence!
Rules:
1. Tutorials are allowed to help you, but bear in mind that it is very obvious
when you use tutorials
2. You can use other scans in conjuction with those above. However, you must include the compulsory scans
3. Vectors are allowed.
Judging criteria:
1. Technicality/ balance of overall composition
2. Colour combination
3. Originality/ artistic expression (message being carried out)
4. Overall feel/ reception of audience
5. Relevance to the theme/ theme sentence

1. Number of layers is not taken into account for judging
2. Amount of time taken to make it is not considered

As soon as this guestbook entry is time marked 2
weeks ago, your time is up!
We have decided to conduct a competition for our group ^^ So what is this for?
Well, we thought that this would be a great idea to get members to look at each
other's stuff, and it's just a bit of fun so that you can think through what you
want to do with this (^_~)
Basically we give out a theme or category and sometimes even a theme sentence
you must incorporate into the wallpaper or a sentence you must complete

ps: Those with problems accessing the guestbook, that has been long fixed so you
can post using Internet Explorer ^^
There have been a few complaints and it has been decided that the group needs
reform, and the best way to solve these problems is by expressing your views,
how you feel, and feel free to make any suggestions. Here are the 4 main issues
we are concentrating on:
01. Underappreciated/ Appreciated
Paradox~ People come here to be appreciated. Some feel they are even more
unappreciated due to this group, because it ironically has an inverse effect
:/
02. Popular Submissions We need to
feature underappreciated walls. Not those who are getting plenty of

hey there
appreciate the coment on my pic Sai/saku
and I know Sai doen't wear the shirts that long but if you were cold would you?
:D LOL
I don't beleive in Tenten/Neji (p>O<p)
and Sasu/saku is alright but sasuke is obviously with *caugh* I think you know who I mean LOL not really I think he might like Sakura but honestly Sakura is way nicer to Naruto so there is a chance and Sai obviously likes her *go Sai!*
Sai is kool :X
I dropped Sasuke ever since he betrayed konoha so............I can't really support his otherwise but hey we all like different things and if Sasuke can redem himself there should be no reason why he can't be with Sakura right?
:D but for now I stick with Sai/saku
glad you even took the time to look at the pic........I really appreciate it
The {Now Fornightly} UnderAppreciated Group Competition
You dont have to be crazy to join...but c`mon, its fun!
As soon as this guestbook entry is time marked 2 weeks ago, your time is up!
ROUND 6! walling fight ALL SET! READY...GO!
This fortnight's theme is MAD SCIENCE!
The time limit is 2 weeks... so start as soon as you get this gbook entry ^^
Category: Anime(Or Game) wallpapers (or vectors)
Villainy: definition AS follows
1. The line for this contest is 'The line between insanity and genius is measured only by success.'. This time, think of it more as inspiration, than an actual guideline.
2. When walling, just try to capture a feeling. Really make the wall`s point come across without having to tell anyone anything. Whatever it is you`re going for, make it come alive.
This time, no real limitations on scans or categories. Go nuts!
HAVE FUN!
Rules:
1. Tutorials are allowed to help you, but bear in mind that it is very obvious when you use tutorials
2. Vectors are allowed.
3. Make sure your wallpaper is at least 1280x960 pixels in size! Other resolutions 1280x1024 and 1600x1200. Believe me, they are fun to make. And people love em more. The bigger the better. Now you know that size matters, at least in wallpapers.
Judging criteria:
1. Technicality/ balance of overall composition
2. Colour combination
3. Originality/ artistic expression (message being carried out)
4. Overall feel/ reception of audience
5. Relevance to the theme/ theme sentence
Judging rules:
1. Number of layers is not taken into account for judging
2. Amount of time taken to make it is not considered
3. Member's level number, reputation or experience not taken into account
4. Number of favourites, comments, downloads and views of entry not taken into account
5. Accuracy of the application of PS filters not taken in account to prevent members from using tutorials
6. Effort is considerable
Members:
1. Also vote on the wallpapers and lend out their comments.
2. There will be a "member voted" wall.
3. For votes, you have three votes 1, 2 and 3. First being the one you like the most, down to the third. You do NOT vote for yourself.
4. Members will favourite the wallpapers they LIKE THE most. This doesn't mean the one you put down first or second etc. but do make an effort to support the wall you feel deserved a fave.
5. Will try to not seek external help, and if they cannot meet the deadline, contact in advance.
Extra info:
1. From the second time onwards, there'll be a new winner called "most improved" that everyone will vote for.
2. Obviously the more entries we receive, the more fun this will be
3. Please try to make an effort and respond to these competition notices. Please POST IN THE group guestbook whether OR NOT YOU WISH TO participate
4. When you have finished your wallpaper, you post a link in the group guestbook, and in the gallery description, write that it is for the UnderAppreciated Group competition so we will know where to find it. Preferably paste in a link to the group page so that other members can see other works.
Preferably upload your wallpaper when it is close to your deadline to prevent other members seeing your ideas. If MT is down, do not panic. We will know you were late because of that.
5. A day after the deadline, you are most likely to receive a guestbook entry like this with the new theme and entries. Winning entries and other entries will be on the page for one week before moving onto another separate page to clear up the space.
6. Even if you have not submitted an entry, you may still vote
7. Interested members who see this notice and are interested in judging, please contact us
8. Judges' decision should be final. Apologies if you feel you have been cheated etc. but such are the facts of life- there is always next time. (>_<)

[AMALGAMATION]
Here we are with the Preliminary guidelines for within our own group.
DETAILS: To create a wall with as many techniques as you can at your disposal. Also, try to create a piece of work that looks different to your other gallery entries
CLOSING date: 28th August
SCANS: Kino no Tabi - any image from Kino no Tabi on minitokyo or off.
- Chosen because of it's image diversity (you don't even need to have a person in your wallpaper, just make a wallpaper based on the motorads) with grainy manga scans and clean lined anime scans to boot.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Large size wallpaper
- provide a link to a wallpaper that covers all the other skills you couldn't display in this wallpaper when posting in the guestbook.
GUIDELINES:
Only ONE Amalgamation entry per person. You may choose to change your entry after submission, but only one is allowed to be entered.
Hi akhilliades,
I'm just stopping in to see what's going on. I'm trying to keep in contact with my friends. Hope things are fine and well. Later.
The {Now Fornightly} UnderAppreciated Group Competition
We`re crazy, but at least that`s a good thing..usually!
As soon as this guestbook entry is time marked 2 weeks ago, your time is up!
WELP! First time around for lil ol` Teryon to be doing this, so bear with.
What was Round one for?
Round one was to increase the activity.
What was Round two for?
Scabbing favourites
What was Round three for?
To blow your mind away. Haha.
What is Round Four For?
Well, to see what we can do.
This fortnight's theme is QUOTATION
The time limit is 2 weeks... so start as soon as you get this gbook entry ^^
This means the category Anime wallpapers (or vectors)
STIMULUS: definition AS follows
1. Below ye shalt find a quote from a song.
2. Based on that quote, ye shall make a wall.
3. In your wall you have to have something dealing with taking chances, living life..fire is optional
4. Here`s the whole fun of it all:
You must use a less-popular scan! Thats right, none of those that get the 100+ favs, or are seen on every wall. I know its a little vague, if you have questions feel free to bug me eternally(since I came up with this limiter).
5. When you submit your wallpaper in the group guestbook, have the link to you wall and state your category, along with fav #. Anything under 20, basically, is alright, again unless its been used a million times.
Here is your quote:
"Life is not tried it is merely survived when you're standing outside the fire." - Garth Brooks "Standing Outside the Fire"
Use this as a basis to create the theme of your wall. So go get the song and listen to the music, or just go with it as ye will! Most importantly, HAVE FUN!
Rules:
1. Tutorials are allowed to help you, but bear in mind that it is very obvious when you use tutorials
2. You can just have a single crotchet or whatever floating randomly on the page. It can be tiny, but make sure the judges can see it, cuz if they can�t you didn�t go by the theme! (Even so, minimalising the theme to such an extent is pretty sneaky anyways lol)
3. Vectors are allowed.
4. Make sure your wallpaper is at least 1280x960 pixels in size! Other resolutions 1280x1024 and 1600x1200 Believe me, they are fun to make. And people love em more. The bigger the better. Now you know that size matters smiley

The {Now Fornightly} UnderAppreciated Group Competition
Weâre crazy, but at least thatâs a good thing!
As soon as this guestbook entry is time marked 2 weeks ago, your time is up!
Well, it mustâve been the most busiest season, but heck we still have the entries for ya ^_^ Also, this entry has arrived early in your guest book, because Misa will be leaving MT. I will no longer be the one posting these notifications in your guestbook or tidying the pages, but never fear ^_^ The saga lives on *music*

This fortnight's theme is STIMULUS
The time limit is 2 weeks... so start as soon as you get this gbook entry ^^
This means the category Anime wallpapers (or vectors)
STIMULUS: definition AS FOLLOWS
1. Below youâll find a cute looking gif file. It should be flapping around.
2. Use that gif as a stimulus. No, it ainât the wings youâre meant to concentrate on. Itâs the blasted music.
3. In your wallpaper you must have something music related. It can be in a hall, you can have the Sydney Opera House in the back, a stereo on the table, a character wearing headphones, a few obscure musical notes, a band score as the back, a CD shelf, a CD store, Michael Jackson, an iPod, sony: it doesnât matter how large or small the reference to music is. It just has to be there. And if you âreally- want, have something flapping as well
4. Hereâs the whole fun of it all:
Your wallpaper must be submitted into a category with LESS THAN 100 items IN IT
So say goodbye to that Naruto scan with Sasuke holding the guitar- yeah!
5. When you submit your wallpaper in the group guestbook, have the link to you wall, state your category and roughly state the number of gallery items in it. You do not need to tell us 99 or 67, just tell us close to 100 or 70, but it cannot have MORE than 100 gallery items.
Here is your friend:
Use this as a basis to create the theme of your wall. So listen to the music, move with the beat: turn up the volume and get it on! ^_^
Rules:
1. Tutorials are allowed to help you, but bear in mind that it is very obvious when you use tutorials
2. You can just have a single crotchet or whatever floating randomly on the page. It can be tiny, but make sure the judges can see it, cuz if they canât you didnât go by the theme! (Even so, minimalising the theme to such an extent is pretty sneaky anyways lol)

Ara... I'm fully writing too much for my own good
The {Now Fornightly} UnderAppreciated Group Competition
It's more frequent now so that we can get a cycle going... and I realised how restless the judges will get XP
As soon as this guestbook entry is time marked 2 weeks ago, your time is up!
The last theme has been quite a success to say, considering it was the first ^_^ This time, things will get even -more- interesting. You may have realised that the themes have not been particularly easy, but after all, it's a challenge ^_^ You learn... ehehe
What was Round one for?
Round one was to increase the activity. Once other members realise that people actually are entering, hopefully we'll get more members, and thus more entries. There will be a thread that'll have the comp details and such... I'll get around to it...
What is Round two for?
After realising that it is hard to get favourites in the original section this time I have decided to revert back to the trashy scan idea. Haha. Anyway. If you were a little upset about missing out on faves last time, this time you'll get the faves for sure. Well, read on first
This fortnight's theme is APPROPRIATION
The time limit is 2 weeks... so start as soon as you get this gbook entry ^^
This means the category Anime wallpapers (or vectors)
APPROPRIATION: definition AS FOLLOWS
1. Below are three links to three very popular animes or categories
2. You can use any style you want. Don't care if you grunge, vector, abstract, flip it, rotate it, crop it, cut it, invert it- it's up to you.
3. All three scans have some sort of "bad quality" to it.
4. It could be that there is text covering the chara, or that it is hard to extract; either way, that is part of the challenge.
5. Pick ONE of the scans I have provided links for. These images were selected pretty much at random, taken into consideration what other walls have done. These are generally the not so popular scans people wall.
6. Appropriation - Please read the following sentence I have typed:
There is no darkness where there is light
Use this as a basis to create the theme of your wall. It ties in well for all 3 scans, so nobody should have any trouble. You do not need to incorporate it into the title or whatever, but it will be nice if you copy and paste that phrase, followed by what you thought when you read the line. This should be reflected in the wall.
SCANS
Here are the 3 scans. Choose ONE. The categories are Sumi Keiichi, Tenjho Tenge and AIR respectively. They are popular and high quality scans, that are not as popular and not walled as much. I haven't seen any of the three anime, and it doesn't matter at present. Choose your scan wisely. No scan takes precedence over the others, but makes sure your wall will reflect the theme sentence!
Rules:
1. Tutorials are allowed to help you, but bear in mind that it is very obvious when you use tutorials
2. You can use other scans in conjuction with those above. However, you must include the compulsory scans
3. Vectors are allowed.
Judging criteria:
1. Technicality/ balance of overall composition
2. Colour combination
3. Originality/ artistic expression (message being carried out)
4. Overall feel/ reception of audience
5. Relevance to the theme/ theme sentence
Judging rules:
1. Number of layers is not taken into account for judging
2. Amount of time taken to make it is not considered
3. Member's level number, reputation or experience not taken into account
4. Number of favourites, comments, downloads and views of entry not taken into account
5. Accuracy of the application of PS filters not taken in account to prevent members from using tutorials
6. Effort is considerable
Members:
1. Also vote on the wallpapers and lend out their comments.
2. There will be a "member voted" wall.
3. For votes, you have three votes 1, 2 and 3. First being the one you like the most, down to the third. You do NOT vote for yourself.

The {Monthly} UnderAppreciated Group Competition
As soon as this guestbook entry is time marked 2 weeks ago, your time is up!
We have decided to conduct a competition for our group ^^
So what is this for?
Well, we thought that this would be a great idea to get members to look at each other's stuff, and it's just a bit of fun so that you can think through what you want to do with this (^_~)
Basically we give out a theme or category and sometimes even a theme sentence you must incorporate into the wallpaper or a sentence you must complete ^_^
This month's theme is ORIGINAL
The time limit is 2 weeks... so start as soon as you get this gbook entry ^^
(Original)
This means the categories Anime wallpapers, General wallpapers, doujinshi, Abstract art
Definition is as follows:
1. NO scans of anime, games or celebrities may be used.
2. Doujinshi, original sketches, and manga scans are ok.
3. You may colour these scans yourself or vector them as you like.
4. Preferably this is incorporated into a WALLPAPER.
5. Stock photos may be used.
Rules:
1. Tutorials are allowed to help you, but bear in mind that it is very obvious when you use tutorials
2. You cannot use the above mentioned scans, even if you invert them or vector them.
3. Vectors are allowed. Scans that are coloured by manga groups are NOT allowed.
4. The wallpaper does not necessarily have to include a character. It can be a landscape you have created if you wish.
5. It may be a abstract wall for desktop use if you wish, though keep in mind they need endless experimentation and extensive knowledge of filters.
Judging criteria:
1. Technicality/ balance of overall composition
2. Colour combination
3. Originality/ artistic expression (message being carried out)
4. Overall feel/ reception of audience
5. Relevance to the theme
Judging rules:
1. Number of layers is not taken into account for judging
2. Amount of time taken to make it is not considered
3. Member's level number, reputation or experience not taken into account
4. Number of favourites, comments, downloads and views of entry not taken into account
5. Accuracy of the application of PS filters not taken in account to prevent members from using tutorials
Judges:
1. Are not members of the group
2. Are willing to make unbiased judgements and some critical comments, not necessarily on each work, but as an overall conclusion
3. Even if they are a friend of a member of the group, she/he must be fair in their judgement and justify her/his choice. This has been changed because it is impossible to find members who are not friends of the members of our group. Urgg. Anyway.
4. Will mark the wallpapers in terms of artistic composition and originality
5. May take up to a week to reach a conclusion, to put a label: 1st, 2nd and 3rd on the top 3 wallpapers

~*UnderAppreciated Group ^^
For more information, check the The group page or contact an admin. The criteria and conditions are pretty clear, but if there are any enquiries, feel free to ask. Use your imagination to the max ^^
ps: Those with problems accessing the guestbook, that has been long fixed so you can post using Internet Explorer ^^
Greetings!! ^_^
i apologise because I don't have much time to spare and I hate to say I'm copying and pasting this to most members of the group =.=
Anyway, I'm writing to ask you to check the group page http://groups.minitokyo.net/theunderappreciated/ because we are in a group discussion
There have been a few complaints and it has been decided that the group needs reform, and the best way to solve these problems is by expressing your views, how you feel, and feel free to make any suggestions. Here are the 4 main issues we are concentrating on:
01. Underappreciated/ Appreciated Paradox~ People come here to be appreciated. Some feel they are even more unappreciated due to this group, because it ironically has an inverse effect :/
02. Popular Submissions We need to feature underappreciated walls. Not those who are getting plenty of attention.
03. Member Selection Criteria Can be harsh, or can be ok at the moment. There needs to be some ammendment.
4. Member Activity Yes. There are some inactive members (hahaha...)
We look forward to hearing your say... (^_^)
banzai!! (^____^) It'd be highly appreciated for any suggestion... no matter how lame or obvious or simple or complicated or trashy or whatever~~
There have already been some interesting suggestions so feel free to comment on those too ^^
~~ Toodles! *chuu*
PS: The gbook is playing up in Internet Explorer. Please use Firefox, and if that's something you don't have... pick on any member and make em paste it on for ya
