Quote by ASH-HikariI thought of doing
this scan too, but I'm not disappointed since there's other great ones and now I
have a wall of it
It looks good, it's too bad we can't see more of the background because it looks
great. But I liked how you cropped the scan anyways.
2 months? Has the calendar even existed for that long? Although maybe you mean
the background.
Anyways great job, a nice winter wall with a scan I love
I got the scan from a friend of mine,
she gave it to me about 2 months ago
But I think the calander just got on the net since
I've had this one for a while now.
Thanks so much for the comment, it's good to
hear some nice feedback on it <3
and also:
Sorry if it looks plain or uncreative
I've injured my arm so thats the best
I can do, Happy Holidays Hikari <33

Yup, it's a talent
Why~ do I need to join? You're very persistent about this, aren't you?
ZOMG a layout!
yes i am. u are capable to draw. not everyone has it. there are so many people
that want to draw and they cant, and u have it but u dont want to. it will be so
stupid if u'll say again that ur a vectorer in heart and u will keep vectoring
until the end of time... if u reject my request this time, i wont disturb u
anymore, but ull deeply dissapoint me
um.... tthe layout ur talking about is an old try, idky mt saved it, i wanted to
have just a blink white page
though i fixed it
PS sorry for he lateness, i was too darn busy, im answering the om now bte
Omedeto Meri Kurismasu, Ashy-chan. Are you trying to get back to vectoring? I'm
trying my hardest to get back to it myself, but if you need anything from me,
don't be afraid to ask for my help. You're one of my best friends and one of the
best vectors here at AP, and I'm glad to be a friend in need. ^_^

I'm too lazy to search for links too
Especially when I'm supposed to find the link to the original scan of an
artwork.
My reply's later~ I can only imagine how cold you are. We had a big snowstorm
last night; the snow is higher than our fence. This morning I went outside in my
pajamas just to see the snow. It was freezing and windy but for some reason I
love it I'm weird like that. Maybe you can get just a small electric
heater from someone to plug in so you're not so cold?
Well I'm sure your mom wouldn't have let you drink when you were five No one
would want their kid to do that.
Niagara Falls is pretty far from me. On the trip we stayed in Toronto, which is
a six hour drive, and then to go to Niagara from there it was a 1 hour and a
half drive, so altogether I'm about 7.5 hours away. People visit Toronto often
though.
Yeah, maybe I should try and cuddle my fish Well I
hope he doesn't do it again. The other little fishy died too (he seemed sick) so
the big one's all alone now. At least he can't kill anyone.
No, my bunny likes the snow. But rabbits are supposed to be able to live in snow
anyways. Although the rabbit does get cold sometimes and wants in, but usually
he loves playing in the snow.
I still have to reply to the PM (I've been soo lazy with everything lately) but
hopefully soon. I wouldn't be able to go without internet for long so I hope
you're not without yours for too long.
Sorry I am late again and I won't have time to answer you the next weeks/month.
You already know I don't have internet access in my new apartment. I really hope
i get it soon but it is kinda expensive because I am the first who gets internet
in the house. I need 100euros..
I moved yesterday, and todays night is my first night in my new apartment. I am
kinda nervous. I don't know the sounds of the apartment. luckily my sister
sleeps together with me =D
haha It snowed today too But
it's already melting and it wasn't so much snow. I already such a small electric
heater but it doesn't really help and yehaa just one more week. wow a snowstorm.
So mch snow. I am envious But I
think I would do the same. Going out in the pyama just to see the snow. Is youre
rabbit still outside? I mean when the snow is so high like your fence the rabbit
vanished in the snow
Yehaa that's pretty far away but at least you live nearer then me But it
would be strange if I would live nearer then you wouldn't it?
I am sorry that your other fish died too. But you have a really violent fish
ôo I asked a friend of mine (she has a lot of fishes) and she
never had this problem
You know what? I got a job yesterday. i start on january 2nd. another point why
I won't answer you so soon. So really take your time to answer the pm. I REALLY
won't have time to answer you.
Maybe I don't have the time to go online again so I wish you a happy new year =D

Thanks for the encouragement, Ash-chan!
Woah, never thought that making wallies is this hard
I'm quite clueless as to what background to make...any ideas maybe? *puppy
eyes*
Oh, that's no prob...thanks for letting me know ^_^
It's hard at first but you get used to it fast
Hm...well I guess the background of a wallpaper depends on the scan you're
using.
No problem ^_^
Quote by ASH-Hikari
Do you skip the anime opening/ending sometimes? I can never do that, for some
reason. The songs just set the mood for the episode I think. Oh, except one time
when I was waching the Naruto fillers, there was one or two ending I would
skip.
The weirdness of Myself;Yourself is my favourite part! I know a lot of people
went into that anime hoping for a normal, good romantic comedy, but I get bored
of that fast. I have a weird love for unexpected twists~ Like Shuffle, I didn't
really like it until episode 19, when Kaede lost it. I loved that episode! I
also wouldn't care for School Days at all if it didn't have the bad ending.
Sure, it was horrible to watch, but it made the story interesting. Anyways I
never expected Asami to like Syuri, I actually had to pause at that part and
think it over. But I cried at the end with Sana running after the train. The BGM
made that scene so sad. And I think Sana's watch is covering a certain scar on
his wrist, which is why when he sees knives with blood he can't handle it. Just
a theory. Maybe next ep will have more Sana/Nanaka romance; I'm rooting for them
as a couple. I've heard KimiKiss is good, I may try it out when I have time.
I've never watch a Jap-drama though.
And now you're 3rd on the list! Yays~
My GIFs don't really have good quality. It depends on the lighting. Like these 2
with darker more gold lighting don't have great quality:
(Are you using Firefox? It makes GIFs go twice as fast as they should, it annoys
me.)
I use Virtual Dub and Imageready to make them. I just kind of guess how I have
to learn how to make GIFs from MKV files though, since everything is MKV now and
Virtual Dub can't read MKV files.
Ooh, which vector are you working on that uses soft-shading? Maybe if you master
it you can teach me since I've never done it :P
I'm waiting to post the School Days vector until after Christmas sometime. I
plan on doing 3 New Years works, all with dedications, I really better work on
them though.
You have a huge folder of wallpapers? I have like fifty folders full Well
when it comes to my comp I'm really organised, so every series gets its own
folder, with other folders insides other folders...well you get the idea. It's a
lot of folders but at least it's easy to find things.
Sigs don't have to be fancy anyways. But I'm sure you can make a good one.
Mine's nothing but a modified scan; I had to move the characters around a bit
and add some text but that's it.
Oh, I forgot to make the screencaps for you! Sorry, I'll do it tonight
^_^
I think all the girls have a thing for Tomoya But I'm
sure it will be a NagisaxTomoya ending, since they've developed those two's
relationship really well. Oh well, perhaps you could get the game and play
Kotomi's arc :P I think it's "Nandeyane" since I've seen everyone
writing it like that, but "Nande yare" actually sounds like it makes
more sense. Meh, I don't know
I haven't seen that YouTube video actually...*watches*
Lol! What a funny kid! I love the way she says it! And then look at the first
half of this
video, she's so funny ^_^
I don't see many videos on YouTube except for the ones my friends send me from
time to time or when I get the craving to watch some AMVs.
I don't mind long GB posts, that's what guestbooks are for~ Plus my reply is
probably just as long :P
Yes, I do actually skip the openings and ending sometimes. Usually I skip the
openings/endings after watching it the first time. But if I like the song, then
I'll let it play until it download it somewhere then I skip it .
I completely thought Myself; Yourself would be a harem/romance/school
life/comedy sort of anime. But I guess the weirdness came in.I'm still into that
genre since I guess it was the first type of genre I saw when I started watching
anime a few years ago. I'm still interested in it though. Shuffle got really
twisted! Kaede scared the life out of me. She's so sweet and kind then when they
were kids, she's killer crazyyyy. School Days, I still hate the main character,
and I've never hated any character before, so this is my first. The story was a
bit interesting, but he ended getting into bed with all the characters of the
anime , I guess I understand it now after reading a review since the GAME
had 8 (I think it was that number) different endings; the game came out before
the anime. I never thought that Asami liked Sayuri either! I kind of got a hint
from it from the earlier episode where they went to the amusement park and she
saw her crying and she was shocked from it. Everyone seems to have problems in
Myself; Yourself. Aoi seems to be the only normal one . I
think I was thinking the same theory you were thinking about Sana covering a
scar with the watch. Maybe suicide attempt before, being bullied at
school?(Another theory.) Well, if you ever have time or want to try/watch
something new, check out some J-Dramas, its interesting because the actors act
like how anime characters, pretty interesting in how they can pull it off
too.
Yay! 3rd on the list! I still don't understand how it works . When
does it get taken off? After a few days? I will ponder on that.
Those GIF's have really good quality still! (to me they're great). I'm using
firefox and the first GIF looks like it's a little faster than it would normally
look. MKV file eh, so that means you download your animes? Or do you watch them
streamed?
I am currently working on this
scan
I think her name is Coti from Shinkyoku Soukai Polyphonica. Just an anime I saw
just for the cute girls I guess. The story wasn't that great, and I was watching
it raw. The ending song was good though .
Some areas I would like to soft shade, if that's how'll it properly work out.
Her socks are what I want to be soft shaded I think. Unless you have a different
opinion then I might follow that. I just finished the outline today and I guess
I'll start coloring tomorrow . I
will try to learn to soft-shade a bit, if it works out and master it, I will
teach you .
Ohh, so you're going to submit 3 or 4 at the around the same time? Pretty
amazing! You should be prepared for lots of comments/favorites :P.
For wallpapers, I just have them organized by letters, but about 8 folders with
500 in each. That's when I went wallpaper crazy and downloaded whatever looked
good. I'm somewhat organized but sometimes I have to look through a lot to find
what I'm looking for. Maybe I should try yourself and break it down some
more.
You don't have to rush yourself to get those screencaps for me. I'll fix up the
outline a bit and then just guassian blur the whole outline; of course I'll
duplicate it first if there are any problems later on so I can fix it.
Maybe I should try out the game, but not much time at the moment. I want to
finish this vector asap! I actually lost 2 hours of vectoring time and I was
doing frills and I got about 60% of it complete, but I forgot to save it and I
had to redo it .
I'm still unsure what Kotomi really says. Nande yane or Nande yare.. the world
may never know .
I don't really youtube either, it's just that my brother and sister gets videos
from friends and then show me, then I tell my friends about it too.
"Sharing the fun" is how I would put it I guess.
--EDIT--
I'm surprised my vector is still in your personal highlights .
--EDIT #2-- Dec. 19, 2:38 pm, my time, not sure of the MT's time.
I need some help sensei! I need your opinion the colors on the hair of the scan
I'm vectoring. If you look closely you can see the darkest shadow is brownish
and thats for the top half of the hair. Then there's the second shadow which is
grayish/purplish and that's the one I'm not sure where it ends. I don't know if
I should have it both on the right and left side on the end's of the hair (sorry
if this sounds complicated). It seems to me that the colors get lighter once the
hair passes the arms but I'm still unsure. I would like some of your insight if
you will Okay thanks!
Quote by ASH-Hikari
Yeah, my wallet is getting thinner and thinner~ Especially now that it's holiday
time (I don't celebrate Christmas, but I have another holiday). But on this
holiday people tend to give me money so hopefully I'll get lucky
Oh, I really want to work at that anime store! But like you suggested, they're
not hiring. I won't give up though; one day I eavesdropped on a conversation by
the workers talking about how they got their job (well I didn't really
eavesdrop; they were talking loud in a circle and I was right there). I won't
give up!
My desk is full too. Plus I already have my Lacus figure here. My bookshelf has
some room though. My room doesn't look very anime-ish though since I can't put
posters on the wall (I won't get into why). But I have one on my closet door and
one inside the closet, and some little anime things. Along with my DVDs. But
it's still not too noticeable. I'm always so envious of the people with
anime-covered rooms.
Yeah, Comiket is in Japan ;_; They have some awesome stuff... I can't read
Japanese at all unless it's in romaji form. I'm trying to learn some kanji but
it's impossible~
Konata's right; I love browsing the stores. Like one day I found some nice anime
mousepads. It's the weirdest thing that you wouldn't think of buying online. And
last time I found an interesting little Haruhi figure of her sitting at the desk
in the clubroom with little accessories. I'd never seen it before.
Walking with your eyes closed is dangerous but it's not so bad when you know
your surroundings by heart. Ever since I was little I've been walking around the
house at night in the pitch dark; now I can go pretty much anywhere in the dark
without a creak :P So it works when your eyes are closed too.
That's alright if you don't join~ Ooh, you have stuff to scan? Anything pretty?
Hopefully you'll get lucky enough that that money lasts for the year =P. Or
you'll have to be thrifty ><...but it's always nice when you can buy
everything you want without worry (though it never happens ).
Ganbate ne! Maybe if you frequent the store enough they'll be more inclined to
hire you ^^'
Yea my room doesn't have much anime stuff either ><. I share a room with
my brother, so only half at most would be...anime-fied...? XP But there is a
wall scroll that I put up on the door and the bookshelf is filled with manga
.
When I get an apartment though....
ohh kanji is so annoying ><. If everything was in hiragana it'd be
alright, but....meh...must be nice for all those chinese people though. It'd be
nice though to go to Comiket since there'd be tons of limited edition
stuff....such a horrible buyer's trap...><.
I've never been in an anime store, so I guess I'm missing out =(
=O talented! I'd never be able to walk naturally in the dark...trip over
something ><.
haha I haven't drawn in such a long time. Most of my stuff relies on refs, so
nothing original. Like I have a drawing of Eve that I got from a chapter page in
Black Cat. And some other Black Cat chars in different poses. Hopefully I'll be
able to draw them in original poses....and not even gonna talk about clothes
>__< (the folds....).
ahhh I just watched Clannad 8 (widescreen). Poor Fuuko T__T. Her tongue twister
was unbearably cute though... I know it's Fuuko's arc, but something's bothering
me. I'm not seeing enough Kotomi . Or
Tomoyo...sighhhh
. It's like...a combination of Makoto and Ayu....but like a million times as
sad
What are your new songs from? Don't recognize them ><
No problem, glad I could help I'm
sure you'll be able to make great walls
And thanks, I'm glad you like the layout
Thanks for the invite, I thought about joining, but in the end I decided not to
for my own reasons (weird reasons ).
Thanks for thinking of me though
Thanks for the encouragement, Ash-chan!
Woah, never thought that making wallies is this hard
I'm quite clueless as to what background to make...any ideas maybe? *puppy
eyes*
Oh, that's no prob...thanks for letting me know ^_^

Really? I love that song too! And I've just started liking the opening, but the
ending is still the best~ Are you caught up on Myself; Yourself? The last 2
episodes were awesome in my opinion.
Ha don't worry, sometimes I don't notice merged messages either. I never liked
the merging thing.
And now you're even farther up on the frontpage! Congrats!
I just discovered the art section recently myself. Lol, you should see how many
screencaps I have for myself
Hopefully you'll get elite gallery with your next vector Kya,
I haven't been vectoring at all lately either. But I don't have a good reason,
I'm just lazy. Thankfully I finished that darn School Days vector, but still a
lot more to go.
For some reason making userpage layouts is hard for me. I can never come up with
any good ideas.
Nagisa's my fave because I feel the most for her character, not sure why. And I
do love those dangos ^_^ It was adorable when Fuuko and Nagisa were singing!
Kawaii~~
(I love making GIFs :P)
That's okay. You know what? I didn't even understand credits until like, 2
months ago. Because I never needed to use my credits since my free download was
enough. I wondered what I needed credits for if I had free downloads. Then one
day I used all my free downloads just to see what happened and then I realised:
it costs credits to download things! Lol I've
still never used them though. I also just realised that people can have a
signature recently. I was always "where's this sig everyone's talking
about?" Now I know
merged: 12-18-2007 ~ 08:40am
Ooh looky, I see Primula!
Ah, jagged lines...well you could try the gaussian blur, but it would blur the
whole outline unless you did the hair outline on a separate layer. I have a
suggestion but it's something I'd have to show you; I'll try to screencap it
tonight Jagged lines seem to happen with thin outlines.
I know! Kotomi is too cute for words! "Nandeyane~"
(Again with the GIFs )
I also really loved at the beginning when she went "Bo~n~jouuur?" It
was too kawaii!
I like the ending more than the opening. I always end up listening to the whole
ending song of every episode. Yep!
I'm caught up on the last 2 eps. I guess for me, I used to like the weirdness
thing, but now I guess I feel like watching more of the romance/comedy side. I
still don't know what's up with his watch. I'd like to see more of Nanaka and
Sana in romance mode .I'd
like to watch more romance/comedy(not really) Kimi Kiss Pure Rouge. I recommend
to you if you're into the romance genre.
And lately, I've been watching Jap-Dramas. Hana Kimi(completed and REALLY GOOD,
probably my favorite) & Brother Beat(pretty hilarious).
Yess! I'm happy! I'm 4th on the list! I
never would've thought I would get to front page though .
Happy days!
Screencaps are very useful though. Good for record/reference and motivation . I
took a few screencaps of being on the front page or being in the popular section
.
It feels real good to get comments and favorites . I
shall try to make more! But I must learn to soft shade properly, I tried soft
shading a little, but nothing really happened . If I can soft shade this next vector then maybe I can get into elite!
That's my current goal at the moment! OUSHU!(I can't spell it correctly , a
saying that karate fighters use for motivation or yes I think.)
I haven't been vectoring for the past couple of days either . The
weekend is time to spend with family and the weekdays is vectoring
(during winter break that is, not sure if I'll have enough time to vector when
school starts up). You finished the School Days vector? Why not submit so I can
comment and fave right away ? A
lot more to go? More vectors on the way? :P Or is it not complete? I'll be
looking forward to it anyway .
I finally understand layouts a bit, but still a long way to go. Your layouts are
awesome! The one with Rukia is stylish and cute .
Mine's just Primula downsized, I should fix it another time.
And wow! Your GIF's have great quality! How do you do it?! Image ready? Master
of GIF's! That's my Sensei! . I
tried to make some GIF's but ended up with bad quality so I quit making them
heh.
I didn't understand credits until a couple of weeks ago haha. I don't use
credits either, the free downloads are enough. Although lately I haven't the
time to download wallpapers/vectors. I already have a huge folder full of them.
.
I used to collect wallpapers all day long and change wallpaper everyday. Which
is why I was here so long, but never participated in MT, but here I am now,
trying to vector my way in .
I was looking at personal option section in the control panel and I wanted a sig
too! Though I don't think I can make one that's fancy. I guess I'll give it shot
later .
Ohh.. jagged lines happen to thin outlines eh, I would've thought it would've
happened if they weren't thin as well. I've learned something new .
Kotomi is wayyyyyyyyyyyyy toooooooo cuteeeeeee! I think she's got a thing for
Tomoya now. I hope he chooses her if he had a choice . But
seeing as this anime is from the same creator of Kanon and Air, I guess I should
expect something dramatic. I'm glad the anime is 24 episodes long (from
anidb.net)! More fun to come . Oh,
it's "Nandeyane", not "Nandeyare". I see I see. I like it
when she just hides behind Tomoya when she's trying to make friends. Wayy wayy
too adorable.
Hey sorta off topic, but have you seen the little girl on youtube, and what she
would do when a monster came to get her?
Here's the link of Kassie's
kicking monster ass. ENJOY . It's
hilarious! Unless you saw it already, but still hilarious to watch .
Tell me if the message is too long, I don't wanna take all the space in your GB
so I'll just PM if it you want.
Quote by ASH-HikariWow, a detailed

Now I'm the one who can't get motivated for vectoring. I just can't bring myself
to do it.
Just so you know, that pic of Lacus has been done before. I still want your
version though!
I've already downloaded your Haruhi vector from AP
Oh, no, Ashy-chan needs some motivation to get back to vectoring~! *puts on
cheerleading outfit* Raa, raa, raa!
OH NOOO, it's been done before? Aww, darn it. >< Well, I'll still do it

Thanks entity-chan ^_^ Just the thought of having someone cheering me on helps
It was done before (see here), but there's things I
don't like about it (the text, the BG, the blurred eyes...) plus I like your
vectoring style so I'm glad you're doing it; it's a nice image
I love the background! (I'm -obsessed- with snowflakes; you should see my room)
and the colours all looked pretty together. I may be biased though since
anything with snowflakes looks great to me ^.^
I didn't even bother to look at MT for the scan, I just downloaded it at AP
because I was in a rush. But the scan I have cuts off Lacus's bangs, but now
that I have a fuller image, my papers were wasted haha. I did want to vector
Kira, too...It would be possible but it's so hard to figure out Kira's hair
shading. I'd have to look back at previous Kira vectors of mine to get the
pattern, but I don't wanna handle that much stuff right now. (And Asya's version
isn't so bad =3)
Ohh, you probably lost motivation for vectoring, because you're doing too many
projects at once, or they're too hard for you to do. I had that once, it was a
phase, after doing three hard vectors I just slowed down. That's why the monthly
challenge is a good idea for me so I don't have to do like three complicated
vectors in a row, but to narrow it down to once a month. Maybe you should try it
out. No matter how simple your vectors are, they always end up on the front
page~ (so jealous, lend me your watchers )
I love snowflakes too. They're the simplest design you can make in a winter
wallpaper. *points to Haruhi wall* hahaha
Sensei! I have a question! How do I get rid of jagged lines . It
seems That usually shows up for me for hair . Would I just gaussian blur it? But it would also blur the whole outline .
Kotomi: "Igi meko? Nande yare." -- SHE's TOO CUTE!

Lol
I started changing my room a bit now. Not much, buy my dresser was always a huge
mess of stuff, so I cleaned it off and it looks much nicer. But now my floor is
covered with the stuff I took off
I remember one time when I was small I cried after some fireworks saying that I
hated them. I don't really remember why though. Wow, drunk when you were five?
That must've been weird. At least it seemed to get rid of your fear of
fireworks.
I'm afraid to fly in a plane too. It was kinda crowded there, and it was funny
at that place under the waterfall, because everyone has to wear these big yellow
raincoats because you get soaked, and so trying to find the people you're with
after is almost impossible. Everyone looks the same The
view at night was amazing, maybe I'll go again one day (when I have a better
camera :P).
Yeah, I get frustrated too if I can't beat a game. And usually my dad always
beats me at all the games, but when we got the tennis game he couldn't beat me
so he was the one that started hating it. It was nice to be better at something
for a change (isn't it weird that my dad plays the same video games as me?)
I think all animals always want food. Even my fish. As soon as I go near him he
swims to the top looking at food. But I'm mad at him right now. Yesterday I
found one of my tiny fishys dead, and his tail was missing. This is the second
time a tiny one has had his tail missing. I think it was the big fishy's fault,
but I don't know how to punish a fish.
And last night I took pictures of my rabbit in the snow. He's so cute because
when he goes in the snow, he starts pushing it with his nose and making paths
like a little snowplow, it's very cute. Here's a
picture of him in the snow (with his evil eyes). Next time in the daytime I'll
make a video of it.
Well I should probably save something to say for the PM
Ja'ne!
I always try to link back to the work, even it is just a name link, but most of
the time I am too lazy to search for the link
I am really sorry for the late reply. but it is getting colder and colder and
you freeze right after you go into my apartment. But well, I got the key for the
new apartment friyday. I really hope I can move this week. my room is kinda
messed up because all my stuff is packed in boxes and i don't have any furniture
more. I sit on the floor. really cold. I wished I had wlan. :_:
Yehaa drunk when I was just five. My mother didn't know I was drunken it. She
would forbid it to me. At least I hope it
All looked the same? I
would have lost my family. I am bad at finding people. if i lost someone, i have
to wait until the person would find me I would
definetly visit the place again. Do you live near it or further away?
Yehaa my sister also is better than me, although she doesn't like the kind of
games we play and that's made me even more frustrated. yehaa it is a bit weird
you and your dad like the same games but otherwise my dad and me always had the
same music taste
wow. what a mean fish you have, kinda violent. and i also don't know how to
punish a fish. If I were young again I would put him out of the water. Maybe you
remember I killed all my fishes
what a cute rabbit you have. but didn't he freeze in the snow? my rat would die.
ah, please take your time to answer the pm. I won't have to much time for the
internet for a while. and the last day I ccan go in the internet is the 31.12.
but i will go to a friend sometimes. I hope I get new internet access very soon.
OMG! Myself; Yourself ED song in your playlist! That's my favorite song ever
since the anime came out! LOVE IT!

Quote by ASH-HikariI know, it's great!
If any of the popular walls move over then you'll be on the frontpage Oh,
and your vector was also featured in the Art section when you first submitted
it:http://img522.imageshack.us/my.php?image=primulafeaturedrk8.png
(Wow I screencap everything don't I.)
Primula will make a nice layout =)
I know, it's hard not to love Kotomi ^_^ Nagisa's still my fave though
And wow, I just realised I never even added you to my friendslist
What's wrong with me~
Sorry I didn't notice this message right away! I don't like merging messages
because I don't get notified of it. I should start looking through my page
thoroughly in case .
I can't believe it! I'm on the front pageee! !
That makes me even more happier!
I didn't know I was featured in the art section too!
That's awesome! I'm glad that you screencap everything . I
never knew about the art section because I only click on 'Minitokyo' or
'Browse'. I'm nearing my goal in favorites! Almost 50! Right now its 49 . I
guess Elite Gallery is too soon for me. My goal is to reach it! Hopefully my
next vector will do so! But I gotta learn to use soft shade properly, I haven't
tried it yet though. Haven't had the time to vector since my brother bought a
new video game (Resident Evil Chronicles for Wii), so I've been playing that
today with him .
I still haven't worked on the userpage layout yet. One day.. when I get the time
to heh.
Nagisa for the dango right? I remember from an episode (forgot which one), that
she sang the dango song, then Fuuko sang the 'starfish' song. That was so cute
and adorable heh. But Kotomi still rules on top of all .
I forgot all about the friend's list. I still don't know much about MT even
though I've been a member here for so long. I'm just starting to learn bit by
bit at the moment .
Quote by ASH-Hikari
Yeah, I already have most of my fave series downloaded and burned onto DVD but I
can't help but buy them anyways.
The prices at my anime store are normal. One DVD is $30 dollars, etc. (These are
Canadian prices.) Once in a while they have a sale though. It's a very tiny
place but I swear I could live there.
I just have two tiny figures (Lacus and Orihime) but I would love the better
quality ones...they look so gorgeous! I don't know where I'd put them though.
*Sigh* Darn anime.
I've never been to a convention but I hope to go someday. Once there was one
right in my city but I wasn't able to go.
Where I'd really love to go is Comiket73, since they have some total love
Clannad stuff, but oh well...has that con even happened yet? I know it was this
month.
I still have a lot to figure out when it comes to ordering online. I'm working
on it though.
I'm working on getting a job too, I just keep weird hours but I might be able to
get a job that I can do from home in my own time. Thanks to my uncle.
Ha I love sleepy Nayuki too She's
so funny, although she kind of reminds me of myself in the morning. I would walk
with my eyes closed
You don't have to submit something to join. It's mainly just a place for people
who like the series to gather and talk about it. Glad you like the page, I
couldn't come up with anything
=P You wallet seeming a little thin lately? Anime did that to me too
><.
You could work there! Or they aren't hiring ><. I dno... Work from home?
=O *shock*
Haha that's gonna be a problem for me too...most of my desk is taken up by
computer and bunches of CDs and a CD player/radio thing. This guy has a post with pics of his room
layout....sooo crowded. And his display case for figurines is
packed....consequently he also laments over his descent into anime fandom
(ascent...?).
Comiket...wait...that's in Japan O_O (Konata's "annual summer
festival"). I just go to Sakuracon in Seattle (March-ish). Er I'm not sure
when it was happening this year...I would check the site, but I can't read
Japanese very well ><.
Buying online is nice since there's usually more stuff and you don't have to
travel, but Konata brings up a good point about going to the store....like you
can come across something interesting that you didn't know about (roughly
quoted...=_=).
ahh cute avatar ^^ *steals*. Haha I always check mail and stuff when I get up so
usually I'm pretty conscious when I start walking...but walking with your eyes
closed is dangerous, yea? Nayuki must be pretty skilled to always get down the
stairs safely in that semi-conscious state
laahh it says minimum# gallery submitted is 1...I think that's the min ><.
muuu well I'll get around to scanning some stuff...soon....
I got the scan from a friend of mine,


she gave it to me about 2 months ago
But I think the calander just got on the net since
I've had this one for a while now.
Thanks so much for the comment, it's good to
hear some nice feedback on it <3
and also:
Sorry if it looks plain or uncreative
I've injured my arm so thats the best
I can do, Happy Holidays Hikari <33
thanks
glad you like my wall
thanks for the really kind words
-huggles-
also, thanks for supportive words
i
really appreciate it
thanks for the lovely comment and thanks a bunch for adding my wall Freedom to your favs
i really appreciate it and im glad you like it
hope you have a lovely day~^^
yes i am. u are capable to draw. not everyone has it. there are so many people that want to draw and they cant, and u have it but u dont want to. it will be so stupid if u'll say again that ur a vectorer in heart and u will keep vectoring until the end of time... if u reject my request this time, i wont disturb u anymore, but ull deeply dissapoint me
um.... tthe layout ur talking about is an old try, idky mt saved it, i wanted to have just a blink white page
though i fixed it
PS sorry for he lateness, i was too darn busy, im answering the om now bte
Omedeto Meri Kurismasu, Ashy-chan. Are you trying to get back to vectoring? I'm trying my hardest to get back to it myself, but if you need anything from me, don't be afraid to ask for my help. You're one of my best friends and one of the best vectors here at AP, and I'm glad to be a friend in need. ^_^
Sorry I am late again and I won't have time to answer you the next weeks/month. You already know I don't have internet access in my new apartment. I really hope i get it soon but it is kinda expensive because I am the first who gets internet in the house. I need 100euros..
I moved yesterday, and todays night is my first night in my new apartment. I am kinda nervous. I don't know the sounds of the apartment. luckily my sister sleeps together with me =D
haha It snowed today too
Yehaa that's pretty far away but at least you live nearer then me
I am sorry that your other fish died too. But you have a really violent fish ôo I asked a friend of mine (she has a lot of fishes) and she never had this problem
You know what? I got a job yesterday. i start on january 2nd. another point why I won't answer you so soon. So really take your time to answer the pm. I REALLY won't have time to answer you.
Maybe I don't have the time to go online again so I wish you a happy new year =D
Hi there Ash-chan!
Ummm..I've finally finish making a wall which took me 3 days *lol*
What do you think? Any improvements that I should do before I submit it?
[img=http://img295.imageshack.us/img295/9776/stelcopynz5.th.jpg]
Sure why not ? ^^
Yes, I do actually skip the openings and ending sometimes. Usually I skip the openings/endings after watching it the first time. But if I like the song, then I'll let it play until it download it somewhere then I skip it
.
I completely thought Myself; Yourself would be a harem/romance/school life/comedy sort of anime. But I guess the weirdness came in.I'm still into that genre since I guess it was the first type of genre I saw when I started watching anime a few years ago. I'm still interested in it though. Shuffle got really twisted! Kaede scared the life out of me. She's so sweet and kind then when they were kids, she's killer crazyyyy. School Days, I still hate the main character, and I've never hated any character before, so this is my first. The story was a bit interesting, but he ended getting into bed with all the characters of the anime
, I guess I understand it now after reading a review since the GAME
had 8 (I think it was that number) different endings; the game came out before
the anime. I never thought that Asami liked Sayuri either! I kind of got a hint
from it from the earlier episode where they went to the amusement park and she
saw her crying and she was shocked from it. Everyone seems to have problems in
Myself; Yourself. Aoi seems to be the only normal one
. I
think I was thinking the same theory you were thinking about Sana covering a
scar with the watch. Maybe suicide attempt before, being bullied at
school?(Another theory.) Well, if you ever have time or want to try/watch
something new, check out some J-Dramas, its interesting because the actors act
like how anime characters, pretty interesting in how they can pull it off
too.
Yay! 3rd on the list! I still don't understand how it works
. When
does it get taken off? After a few days? I will ponder on that.
Those GIF's have really good quality still! (to me they're great). I'm using firefox and the first GIF looks like it's a little faster than it would normally look. MKV file eh, so that means you download your animes? Or do you watch them streamed?
I am currently working on
.
Some areas I would like to soft shade, if that's how'll it properly work out.
Her socks are what I want to be soft shaded I think. Unless you have a different
opinion then I might follow that. I just finished the outline today and I guess
I'll start coloring tomorrow
. I
will try to learn to soft-shade a bit, if it works out and master it, I will
teach you
.
this scan
I think her name is Coti from Shinkyoku Soukai Polyphonica. Just an anime I saw just for the cute girls I guess. The story wasn't that great, and I was watching it raw. The ending song was good though
Ohh, so you're going to submit 3 or 4 at the around the same time? Pretty amazing! You should be prepared for lots of comments/favorites :P.
For wallpapers, I just have them organized by letters, but about 8 folders with 500 in each. That's when I went wallpaper crazy and downloaded whatever looked good. I'm somewhat organized but sometimes I have to look through a lot to find what I'm looking for. Maybe I should try yourself and break it down some more.
You don't have to rush yourself to get those screencaps for me. I'll fix up the outline a bit and then just guassian blur the whole outline; of course I'll duplicate it first if there are any problems later on so I can fix it.
Maybe I should try out the game, but not much time at the moment. I want to finish this vector asap! I actually lost 2 hours of vectoring time and I was doing frills and I got about 60% of it complete, but I forgot to save it and I had to redo it
.
I'm still unsure what Kotomi really says. Nande yane or Nande yare.. the world may never know
.
I don't really youtube either, it's just that my brother and sister gets videos from friends and then show me, then I tell my friends about it too. "Sharing the fun" is how I would put it I guess.
--EDIT--
.
I'm surprised my vector is still in your personal highlights
--EDIT #2-- Dec. 19, 2:38 pm, my time, not sure of the MT's time.
I need some help sensei! I need your opinion the colors on the hair of the scan I'm vectoring. If you look closely you can see the darkest shadow is brownish and thats for the top half of the hair. Then there's the second shadow which is grayish/purplish and that's the one I'm not sure where it ends. I don't know if I should have it both on the right and left side on the end's of the hair (sorry if this sounds complicated). It seems to me that the colors get lighter once the hair passes the arms but I'm still unsure. I would like some of your insight if you will Okay thanks!
oh and if you havent noticed it's dedication for you all(my friends) once again
Glad you liked it!
Hopefully you'll get lucky enough that that money lasts for the year =P. Or you'll have to be thrifty ><...but it's always nice when you can buy everything you want without worry (though it never happens
).
.
When I get an apartment though.... 
Ganbate ne! Maybe if you frequent the store enough they'll be more inclined to hire you ^^'
Yea my room doesn't have much anime stuff either ><. I share a room with my brother, so only half at most would be...anime-fied...? XP But there is a wall scroll that I put up on the door and the bookshelf is filled with manga
ohh kanji is so annoying ><. If everything was in hiragana it'd be alright, but....meh...must be nice for all those chinese people though. It'd be nice though to go to Comiket since there'd be tons of limited edition stuff....such a horrible buyer's trap...><.
I've never been in an anime store, so I guess I'm missing out =(
=O talented! I'd never be able to walk naturally in the dark...trip over something ><.
haha I haven't drawn in such a long time. Most of my stuff relies on refs, so nothing original. Like I have a drawing of Eve that I got from a chapter page in Black Cat. And some other Black Cat chars in different poses. Hopefully I'll be able to draw them in original poses....and not even gonna talk about clothes >__< (the folds....).
ahhh I just watched Clannad 8 (widescreen). Poor Fuuko T__T. Her tongue twister was unbearably cute though... I know it's Fuuko's arc, but something's bothering me. I'm not seeing enough Kotomi
. Or
Tomoyo...sighhhh
. It's like...a combination of Makoto and Ayu....but like a million times as
sad
What are your new songs from? Don't recognize them ><
Thanks for the encouragement, Ash-chan!

Woah, never thought that making wallies is this hard
I'm quite clueless as to what background to make...any ideas maybe? *puppy eyes*
Oh, that's no prob...thanks for letting me know ^_^
I just wanted you to know that I made a group dedicated to Kira Yamato
If you
want to join,pls. visit the group's page-
.......Thank You
On "soba ni iru" wall X3
I like the ending more than the opening. I always end up listening to the whole ending song of every episode.
Yep!
I'm caught up on the last 2 eps. I guess for me, I used to like the weirdness
thing, but now I guess I feel like watching more of the romance/comedy side. I
still don't know what's up with his watch. I'd like to see more of Nanaka and
Sana in romance mode
.I'd
like to watch more romance/comedy(not really) Kimi Kiss Pure Rouge. I recommend
to you if you're into the romance genre.
And lately, I've been watching Jap-Dramas. Hana Kimi(completed and REALLY GOOD, probably my favorite) & Brother Beat(pretty hilarious).
Yess! I'm happy! I'm 4th on the list!
I
never would've thought I would get to front page though
.
Happy days!
Screencaps are very useful though. Good for record/reference and motivation
. I
took a few screencaps of being on the front page or being in the popular section
.
It feels real good to get comments and favorites
. I
shall try to make more! But I must learn to soft shade properly, I tried soft
shading a little, but nothing really happened
. If I can soft shade this next vector then maybe I can get into elite!
That's my current goal at the moment! OUSHU!(I can't spell it correctly
, a
saying that karate fighters use for motivation or yes I think.)
I haven't been vectoring for the past couple of days either
. The
weekend is time to spend with family and the weekdays is vectoring
(during winter break that is, not sure if I'll have enough time to vector when
school starts up). You finished the School Days vector? Why not submit so I can
comment and fave right away
? A
lot more to go? More vectors on the way? :P Or is it not complete? I'll be
looking forward to it anyway
.
I finally understand layouts a bit, but still a long way to go. Your layouts are awesome! The one with Rukia is stylish and cute
.
Mine's just Primula downsized, I should fix it another time.
And wow! Your GIF's have great quality! How do you do it?! Image ready? Master of GIF's! That's my Sensei!
. I
tried to make some GIF's but ended up with bad quality so I quit making them
heh.
I didn't understand credits until a couple of weeks ago haha. I don't use credits either, the free downloads are enough. Although lately I haven't the time to download wallpapers/vectors. I already have a huge folder full of them.
.
I used to collect wallpapers all day long and change wallpaper everyday. Which
is why I was here so long, but never participated in MT, but here I am now,
trying to vector my way in
.
I was looking at personal option section in the control panel and I wanted a sig too! Though I don't think I can make one that's fancy. I guess I'll give it shot later
.
Ohh.. jagged lines happen to thin outlines eh, I would've thought it would've happened if they weren't thin as well. I've learned something new
.
Kotomi is wayyyyyyyyyyyyy toooooooo cuteeeeeee! I think she's got a thing for Tomoya now. I hope he chooses her if he had a choice
. But
seeing as this anime is from the same creator of Kanon and Air, I guess I should
expect something dramatic. I'm glad the anime is 24 episodes long (from
anidb.net)! More fun to come
. Oh,
it's "Nandeyane", not "Nandeyare". I see I see. I like it
when she just hides behind Tomoya when she's trying to make friends. Wayy wayy
too adorable.
Hey sorta off topic, but have you seen the little girl on youtube, and what she would do when a monster came to get her?
. It's
hilarious! Unless you saw it already, but still hilarious to watch
.
Here's the link of Kassie's kicking monster ass. ENJOY
Tell me if the message is too long, I don't wanna take all the space in your GB so I'll just PM if it you want.
Oh, no, Ashy-chan needs some motivation to get back to vectoring~! *puts on cheerleading outfit* Raa, raa, raa!
OH NOOO, it's been done before? Aww, darn it. >< Well, I'll still do it anyways. That, and the monthly challenge. I'm committing suicide doing it but I must~For my fans~
Oooh, you already downloaded it, yay~ I liked how the background came out but I'm not sure...Dx
merged: 12-18-2007 ~ 10:38am
I didn't even bother to look at MT for the scan, I just downloaded it at AP because I was in a rush. But the scan I have cuts off Lacus's bangs, but now that I have a fuller image, my papers were wasted haha. I did want to vector Kira, too...It would be possible but it's so hard to figure out Kira's hair shading. I'd have to look back at previous Kira vectors of mine to get the pattern, but I don't wanna handle that much stuff right now. (And Asya's version isn't so bad =3)
Ohh, you probably lost motivation for vectoring, because you're doing too many projects at once, or they're too hard for you to do. I had that once, it was a phase, after doing three hard vectors I just slowed down. That's why the monthly challenge is a good idea for me so I don't have to do like three complicated vectors in a row, but to narrow it down to once a month. Maybe you should try it out. No matter how simple your vectors are, they always end up on the front page~ (so jealous, lend me your watchers
)
I love snowflakes too. They're the simplest design you can make in a winter wallpaper. *points to Haruhi wall* hahaha
Sensei! I have a question! How do I get rid of jagged lines
. It
seems That usually shows up for me for hair
. Would I just gaussian blur it? But it would also blur the whole outline
.
Kotomi: "Igi meko? Nande yare." -- SHE's TOO CUTE!
Since you are my friend,i decided to make wlp for all my friends(i just hope it wont be deleted!)

Beautiful story
Sorry for the late reply and I meant to actually leave a comment on your entry,but I was getting kicked off the pc at the time
I always try to link back to the work, even it is just a name link, but most of the time I am too lazy to search for the link
I am really sorry for the late reply. but it is getting colder and colder and you freeze right after you go into my apartment. But well, I got the key for the new apartment friyday. I really hope I can move this week. my room is kinda messed up because all my stuff is packed in boxes and i don't have any furniture more. I sit on the floor. really cold. I wished I had wlan. :_:
Yehaa drunk when I was just five. My mother didn't know I was drunken it. She would forbid it to me. At least I hope it
All looked the same?
Yehaa my sister also is better than me, although she doesn't like the kind of games we play and that's made me even more frustrated. yehaa it is a bit weird you and your dad like the same games but otherwise my dad and me always had the same music taste
wow. what a mean fish you have, kinda violent. and i also don't know how to punish a fish. If I were young again I would put him out of the water. Maybe you remember I killed all my fishes
what a cute rabbit you have. but didn't he freeze in the snow? my rat would die.
ah, please take your time to answer the pm. I won't have to much time for the internet for a while. and the last day I ccan go in the internet is the 31.12. but i will go to a friend sometimes. I hope I get new internet access very soon.
