[b][size=1]Ah.. excellent drawings Ginny. Everything just looks very 'right' and defined. ^_^[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]This is a banner I did of Yuna's eyes, because I just think they look very cool. I tried to keep it as simple as possible, but I'm not sure if it's too dark or not. Ratings/comments/improvements are appreciated. ^_^[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]It might be his own life, but the people fighting the blaze will have to save it if he goes in and risks it. They can't just stand there and let him possibly die, can they? He's putting other lives at risk by running into that house and I know I would run in there, but I wouldn't necessarily be surprised if I was arrested.[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]I think it's reasonably fair that did so. When they have to go in there after the man, when he gets his legs burnt to a crisp so he can't walk; they're endangering lives that really don't need to be. However, I would have done it for my cat, or anyone else in the house.[/b][/size]

[quote]I think they want a Mitch, I really do. That's what they want.[/quote] [b][size=1]I agree. In fact, it's not limited to women, I want you too. *shifty eyes* *cough* Anyway, I wouldn't know what women want in a man, and I think every woman is going to be different anyway.[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]If you are asking yourself this question, I think you have reached a point where you want people to be sorry for doing things to you in the past after you die. Trust me (I know), a lot of people would cry.[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]If you guys are talking about summer holidays, geez, you have it easy. The only reason I get out on June 16th this year is because my 'final' exams finish then, so there is no point to our year being in school and stressing out the teachers, lol. Normally, I would get out of school on July 20, and go back on the 6th of September.[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]I tried resizing it for you, I hope that's okay. ^_^ I think it looks excellent.. very well done. I can see why you're aspiring to work on anime.[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]I just saw the final trailer version of the Matrix : Reloaded, and I must say I was impressed. The scene where Neo takes on all those copied agents on the rooftop looked excellent. Now, I just can't wait. :)[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]This is my first banner that involves something that I didn't make in quite a while. The character is Akuma from Street Fighter the anime. Ratings/comments please. :)[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]They would have fit together with the old character limit, too. And the new character limit is there for a reason and has been here since you first posted. Please do not do this again.[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]The reason for my comment was simple and clear. Shift was putting other members down consistantly with his attitude. His attitude, in the eyes of me and others, was just a case of him being 'better' than everyone else, so he felt a need to put others down. Granted, it is his opinion. But his opinion was insulting others and putting them down. If I posted my opinion on one of your hard-worked on graphics and said it was "frikin noobish", with "very bad gfx skill", how would you feel? I'm flaming? If you took a while to look at Shift's posts and didn't just trapse on here because he told you to, you would see that he did plenty of flaming himself. So here's some advice. Next time you want to talk to me about something, don't post completely off topic in an old post about something you could easily take to Private Messages. Since this is only going to stir up further debate etc. I'm going to close this thread. If you want to talk to me further about this you can contact me over Private Message or AIM. [/b][/size]

[b][size=1]Wintermute, the quote tags are (without the spaces): [ quote]quote here[ /quote]. You can also use the 'quote' button at the bottom right of someones post, next to the 'edit' button. ^_^ Anyway, I think I have a talent for writing. I've always loved doing it, creating my own little worlds and characters using my imagination. It's given me a use for my very strange train of thought. I suppose one of my other talents is music.. but I have yet to excel in anything within that yet. I mean, I can play lots of stuff, but not very well. I sing, but that needs improving. :)[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]Yar, that be a tough one Cloudy... but I shall try my best at 3.15 in the morning. EDIT - Was a tad bit too rude there. ^_^ "This was never on the ultrasound" - "Well, honey, I got drunk over in the barn, and one thing led to another.."[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]Altron, please do not double/triple post unless your story exceeds the character limit, which it does not.[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]*Decides to post once again.* Of all the relationships I've ever been in, this one means the most to me. I never thought I'd be 'dating' someone online, but now that I am; I'm glad. It's really hard for me to explain, but it's just the way it is. Her being so far away is both good and bad. Good because it's just a new experience, and bad because I'm not able to hold her in my arms and tell her I love her in person. My feelings for her are completely and utterly real. I can honestly say that I'm in love with her; and that's a big word for me to use. The internet is like having a wall between me and her.. and we just shout over it until it can be broken down. To me, it's just something someone has to experience before they can really say anything about it. I didn't expect to suddenly fall for someone over the internet, but I did, and I have no regrets following that. I might have said the same thing as some others here at the time, but now, I'm posting this argument. To put it this way : It's as real as it could ever be. Excuse my rant, it's 5am and I'm rather tired. ^_^[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]To be perfectly honest with you; if you have that idea jammed in your head all the time, you're always gonna end up at the bottom. Change your attitude and realise that every once in a while, life really sucks, and although it may seem like you're always ending up on the bottom, there are plenty of others going through the same thing. Nice or not.[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]"And - as clearly displayed by me - the laws of physics do not stop one from removing one's head."[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]Love? Love is something that binds you eternally to someone, something you have [i]never[/i] felt before in your life. Love is when you would die for a person.. when you would give anything and everything just to hold them for 5 minutes in your arms, to tell them how you feel just one more time or to just [i]be there[/i] with them. Love, for me, is having that person on your mind 24/7. Everything you do, you think of that person, how it might relate to them and so forth. In my warped mind, my perception of love is crystal clear.. but when I try to describe it to others I go on for a long time, and generally make little sense. To me.. love is all I have left, but is everything I ever wanted.[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]The good thing about 'dating' someone online, is you get to know them for who they are. First meeting someone isn't based on looks and then finding that they're a great person -- it's (sometimes) the other way around. In my mind it's a great thing.[/b][/size]

[quote]I think its terrible, whenever I see "married to 'whoever' since 00/00/00" I just begin to laugh, its the stupidest thing...Meet someone in real life, just so you know, its right....Lies and deception, thats all people do over the internet, tell lies and decede others, dont you love it?[/quote] [b][size=1]As others have said, I think those marriage 'tags' are a bit of harmless fun, not really an intention to actually marry someone. Sometimes you have to take a chance and trust someone without actually meeting them. And, should I treat everything you say as a lie? Since, you are using the internet as a tool for communication, and it's all 'lies and decete' on the internet. I'm going out with someone online. My feelings for her are as real as they can get...which I'm not going to go into right now. To be perfectly honest; I couldn't give two monkeys if someone thought it was fake or whatever. [i]I[/i] know it's real, that's what matters to me.[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]I really like the second A.I avatar, except for the font used for 'intelligence'. It just doesn't seem 'techy' enough to me.. to go with the theme of the movie and avatar background. The second A.I banner is very nice. The background is good and the colours mix well, and the text animation isn't too fast. :)[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]This is something else I made. Not red; but I thought it would be better to reply than to create an entirely new thread. ^_^[/b][/size]

[quote]Personally, I think that anyone who tries suicide is trying to take the chicken-**** way out of a problem. There is no excuse for killing yourself (or saying you will) to escape trouble in life or gain attention. There are other ways to do that in life, even if they are harder.[/quote] [b][size=1]I have a serious problem with attitudes like that towards suicide. The problem is, to a person that far down, there isn't any other way out. For me, my life is still a complete and utter mess, and sometimes I wonder why I even bothered to live a few days longer. The chicken-**** way out of a problem, huh? When having hades tickle your toes seems more inviting than life, you tell me the same thing.[/b][/size]

[b][size=1]I think suicide is perfectly justifiable. But, I also agree that it is pretty selfish; since if you are doing it to end your own pain, you're only going to cause pain to those who care for you. However.. I think some people fail to see how depressing and bad life can really get. Many people get to the stage where they just think "what's the point?" and decide to end it all. It just feels as if there is no point in living through another day of pain and anger, why should you have to put up with one more day of it when it can be ended so easily. Recently I tried to kill myself, twice. I wasn't doing it to gain attention, or to make people feel bad about treating me badly 'after I was gone' or whatever. I did it because I had never felt so bad in my entire life. Depression didn't even go near how bad I felt, and I know that I had viable and valid reasons for feeling so down at the time. To me, it seemed as if ending my life would have just given me a release; since, to be perfectly honest, my life was an utter pile of steaming crap.[/b][/size] [quote]And, I wonder. I wonder who's more selfish: Those who take their own lives, or those who view suicide as unjustifiable because they don't understand kind of pain the suicide victims were dealing with--because it makes them take a step back and look at their own mortality. And, in some cases, they have to look at themselves in the mirror and realize that their own ingorance played a part in the suicide victim's demise. Hm?[/quote] [b][size=1][i]Very[/i] well said, Charles.[/b][/size]
