Quote by MapleRoseah I see you've added
some text. Actually I kinda like it better without text, 'cause it looks too..
extra and unnecessary
Yeah, I just thought it looked a bit empty in that area, but your right, the
feel of the wall isn't the same with the text ^^" Thanks for pointing that
out
So, the nominations with 4 and more votes will be added to the gallery. Don't
chu want to highlight any of the featured vectors, like giving reasons? Or you
just want to be totally democratic, like at Simple-ism?
Quote by MapleRosenice work, I like the
atmosphere ^__^
a few things to point out though: first of all, the outline stands out too much,
because it's black and sharp while everything else is either brightly-coloured
or pastle-coloured, and soft. I suggest using dark brown for the outline, and
perhaps blurr it a bit?
like chloe-chan said, the hair looks a bit too smudged and blurry compared to
the rest of the wall, possibly due to lack of outlines. Same with her
eyes.
the blanket thing over her shoulder, the two bits that are draping over her
shoulder looks over-smudged, so that it loses its texture and edge, and looks
kind of odd.
the shadows from the flower branches in front of her should be more
diffused/blurred, as shadows are rarely that sharp.
the bushes on the bottom left corner, although is a good idea, looks too sharp,
esp compared to the painted-ness of the rest of the wall. Also, things tend to
get blurry as they get farther away if your focal point is in the foreground. So
those leaves should be blurrier/less in focus than the girl and those branches
to create depth.
That's all I can see. just some minor details to point out. overall, it's really
nice and I see you've put a lot of effort into it
^^
hiya Maple-chan
thanks alot for the sweet comment &
thanks for pointing out my mistakes I really
appreciate that
talk to you soon & hope you have a sweet day

Quote by MapleRoseHi Lord DREAM, just
dropping by to say congrats on being featured on MTM ^__^ and thanks for those
scans ^^ (and I'd love to see more or your walls, your vectoring style is really
neat ^^)
ah thank you for the kind words Lady MapleRose, i really appreciate that. ^^ i
was surprised about the honorable mention in MT M#2. i hope to finish a few more
walls myself. i have 5 separate works in various degrees of completion.
Quote by MapleRosehaha cute design, I
love the fairytale-like setting, and nice colours. Nice border, though there's a
black area on the top left corner of the border that looks like it shouldn't be
there.
can't wait to see your tea entry
lol cute, I didnt wanted to admit it but I guess that's the correct word for it
and if you liked the, how you called it, fairytale setting , then you like the
whole thing, so I'm glad, the border thing, hum it's not that it shouldnt be
there is just that it didnt look bad for me and at the end thought it was giving
a detail, some sort of weird rustic detail, kind of think it goes with the
taste.
and well, you put the scan I'm walling as the tea one in the request section so
I'm thinking you'll probably like it.
aaah sorry for the late thank-you =.= I've been too attached to PS lately. The
Bread wall was... er... the day I went crazy, to use that much pink.... glad you
liked it though.
Quote by MapleRosenice vector, you've
improved so much since your first one ^^
yeah it does look exactly like the scan... I'm not sure if that's a good thing
or not, but I do kinda wish you'd put your own touch on
it...
Glad you like it! Though maybe you're right! I'm not sure what kind of touch
could I put to a vector? Different colours on it or a ceratin backgrond that's
the same for each vector to be distinctive.
It's not bad that you said that, but it does make me think. I mean to me I guess
when it comes to vectors I just vector them away and make colours brighter. Though I
can't think of what would it be that would give it my touch? It's
just like drawing, where everyone has their own style and colours so you know
who's who. >:D Thanks for the advice though.
Oh yeah, can I ask you this question? Can elite members change catergory for a
certain wallpaper, vector, or doujinghi just like moderators?

hmm, maybe try using textures and patterns? Or instead of using brushes, use
multiple layers of vectored shading (like this vector)? Just a
thought ^^
Yeah elite members can move gallery items, do you need something to be
moved?
Oh yeah, I remember seeing that from carbon. It was very unique as you said and
it was his own touch. Thanks so
much for the example, now I have a better idea of what you menton.
Yes, I do need something moved. This [url=wallpaper]wallpaper[/url]
was in the catergory of Kannazuki no Miko
instead of Kyoushiro to
Towa no Sora. I know the character couples look the same, but they're not in
the same series. Here's the scan I used from the
wallpaper to show proof it's in the Kyoushiro to Towa no Sora catergory.
Hi!
I just stopped by to congratulate you for the 'Did you know?' articles you write
on MT Maigetsu. I always read them first, they're extremely funny! You go girl!
XD Can't wait to see the new adventures of pOpuLaR-cHan
Cya around!
ohh thanks a bunch for the nice comment and the favie! .. that vector gave me
headaches to finish lol..
btw.. i have a little question about the codes at MT...
i tried to put the thumbnail of "the painting steps" but it doesn't
let me...
i use a lot this things on AP [img] [/img] to show little size images instead of
putting some text as link, but they don't work in here... is there another way?
or is it just that MT doesn't support those stuff?..

thanks for the information
i guess i will have to be happy with the links :P
Quote by MapleRosenice job ^^ wow...
you must be insane to vector all those things in the background *-* ...
the shading and highlights on the characters look a bit over-smudged, thus
losing some of the texture and clean-ness, I like the subtle painted shading on
the wings better.
anyway, the background is amazing, and congrats on the highlight(s)
^__^
sorries for replying late.....
hehe insane.......really dont know...
thnx for the advice on the smudging thing...im new at those things...
im glad you liked the wings
many thanks
bai-cha ^___^
Quote by MapleRoseI love the colour
usage ^__^ and the scan extension, looks seamless. Love the subtle textures and
patterns too. congrats on 2nd place!
Hello MapleRose,
thanks for the comment and the fav! I am
happy that you like my wallpaper... next time I'll try to submit something with
more paint technique again...
It's always fun taking part in competitions! However since I want to finish my
uni diploma paper in October I don't have as much time left as I wanted...
that's why it always takes me quite a while to come up with something
new.
Well thanks again and I'll be seeing you around! Take care!

Canada, which is crap because Canada sucks)
Hey! That was uncalled for! *grrr*
Hey you know you love me. Canada stabs are good times ya know. If you're
Canadian then I'll say I'm sorry. Sorry for insulting and sorry you're Canadian
which is reason for sadness... HA!
Quote by MapleRoseOne relatively flat
pillow to rest my head on (although by morning I'd someone end up off the pillow
^^' ) and one very comfy pillow to hug ^^ . I find that if the pillow is too
high I end up with a crick in my neck the next day... I can't understand how the
ancient people used blocks of stone and wood as pillows,
ouch!
O.O omgosh they used stone for pillows?! i would die b4 i could get to sleep on
that X-x
well, how about the monthly feature? Like for the item with highest votes in the month?
I did, but I'm not sure about my score yet. Either below or above 50%. How about you? And your wallzz....
merged: 08-11-2007 ~ 06:22pm
Lol, I live in a cave.
Anyhow,
it's good to read that popular-chan article, what a random name you picked. 
Yeah, I just thought it looked a bit empty in that area, but your right, the feel of the wall isn't the same with the text ^^" Thanks for pointing that out
