Personal thoughts
a.k.a. me rambling
Im tired of out of focus, soft-colored wallpapers with the tiny, meek little girls surrounded by flowers and glittery sparkles. They all look like those damnable Precious Moments figurines.
I really think it is hypocritical for scanners to complain when their scans are posted somewhere other than where they want them posted. To be clear, I'm not talking about issues of credit. I think the scanner should always get credit for what they do. I am talking about the scanners who moan and complain that their scans are being 'redistributed' without their consent. I mean come on, isn't that exactly what the scanner is doing to the original artist? Do you really think any of the scanners out there have contacted the copyright holder for an image and gotten their permission to scan the image and then upload it to the internet? Those who live in glass houses should not cast stones at others. Apparently the original scanner thinks it is just fine to redistribute scans of artwork he/she didn't create but somehow has the moral authority to say that no one else may redistribute it.
Annoying Commentary
insert generic saying here --->
This is just a list I'm making of the generic, non-specific comments that I constantly see people making as gallery comments. If you want to add to the list, just leave a message in my guestbook.
1. "The scan really fits the background." - What does that even mean?
2. "Very nice." - That's what mother's say about macaroni art to their 5 year olds.
3. "They are huge." - I'll give you one guess as to what they are referring to.
4. "owww,it's magical* add to fav* ." - And I thought that guy trying to sell me a magical scan was just drunk on rice wine.
Funny Commentary
obscure references, insided jokes and just plain odd
Like FOX News, I am fair and balanced. Therefore, I am also making a list of the funny, unique and really odd comments that I see. If you want to add to the list, just leave a message in my guestbook.
1. "Now that I have defeated you it's time for your punishment you bad Pirate."
2. Main Entry: red hot Function: noun1 : one who shows intense emotion or partisanship 2 : HOT DOG1 3 : a small red candy strongly flavored with cinnamon

About me
I have no formal training in graphic design so whatever I know, it was learned through hands-on experience. Mostly trial and error.
I don't just keep scans that I find because I can make wallpapers out of them. I am a collector of scans for their own sake. I have a lot of anime related images where I know nothing about the anime that they came from. This makes it somewhat difficult to know if I am posting a duplicate but I try my best to make sure that I don't. If I do post a duplicate image, it is usually because the one I have is larger and/or better quality.
About this userpage
Customizing this userpage was frustrating but fun at the same time. I used Willem's page as a sort of template to make my own. Thank you, Willem.
Note to those on my friendlist
I will try to comment on all the submitted works by people on my friend's list. That commentary will be honest and not just another "Great wall" or "Great job. Such a pretty scan." Those comments are generic and virtually worthless. You could cut and paste that comment onto anything. I will try to make individualized commentary that may be critical but never mean spirited. Keep in mind that I have no formal training in graphic design so my comments/suggestions are based on instinct.
Final Note
If you have something you would like to comment on or offer some information about, feel free to either send me a private message or write in the guestbook. If it is about a certain selection in my gallery, please include the name of the image.

Thanks for commenting on my Last Exile Postcard. ^_^
Do I sence that someone actually did watch all of Sky Captain? My sympathies to you.
By extracted I mean that I copied it directly from the game, so this is the highest quality possible with the current software I am using, I am still searching for a better software though, the only modification I do to some images is cropping them to decrease their file size if there is plenty of empty regions around the character.
-poke, poke- How are you doing? And I do have another wall up. ^_~

Ahh. I'm not too sastified with MT myself. Is there another place you hang? That deals with wallpapers, of course. I'd just like to hear more of your critique and to keep in touch. And I'm happy to be of service. I'm just recently becoming more active on the site.
Oh, and thank you very much for your critique.
Sonotori ^^
Hi elessar007! Thank you for oyur fav on my lineage 36 scan, i'm glad you liked it.
Have a nice day!
Thanks, for the comment. It was my first time ever attempting this style. I'm starting to see a dislike in text as well, however, I cant just kiss it goodbye just yet. I hope I have more comments from you for my upcoming works. Sadly, I'm kind of fixated on this style at the moment.
Okay Elessar007, as it is your 2nd time warning from CW, I am so sorry I will have to remove you from the group. Actually you can rejoin us later if you want and make sure of your action ^_^
Okay see ya around and good luck anyway.
Hmmm...I see, but perhaps if the Lingerie includes an outer lingerie layer is ok. Lets hope, the reason I feel this is justified is because what it actually shows is more like a girl with a singlet, and wearing a bikini bottom of sorts. It is more to that.
Anyhow, thanks for all the lovely comments. Appreciate them a lot.
I am so glad you understand for us CW, sweetie ^_^ Yup, just visit the group, say smt and join the newest cotest "Banner cotest" with your vote ^_^ So you should read all the annouce too for all the news ^_^
Good luck and i am so appreciated you care that much ^_^ See ya sweetie *kisses*
