[QUOTE=affection][SIZE=1][FONT=Georgia]I wear those butterflies everyday in my hair I guess it just adds personality..[/FONT][/SIZE][/QUOTE][color=#007520]Don't assume that what you wear changes your/adds personality. It might bring out your personality to make it more visible, but keep in mind that your personality is who you are, not what you wear. Let me reiterate: Wearing something nobody else wears may be a reflection of your personality so other people can see it, but it doesn't really add it. [img]http://r2vq.yamifarao.net/pics/The_More_You_Know.jpg[/img] By the way, nice work with the fancy dress. Usually that colour would have me stabbing my eyes out to see if I can draw neon blood, but you make it work. It actually seems to look good on you. xD -r2[/color]

[color=#007520]DB you shouldn't say that about yourself. You're not little at all~! -cough- No really though, you're not ugly, you look like an acquaintance of mine actually. If you want to see ugly, you should see me when I'm half drunk and in the dark... NEVAR AGAIN. I really should untag that from Facebook... Well, to see pictures of me just click "Vew Photos of Ke~" oh wait, this isn't that site. :3 Actually, if you want to find more pictures of me... I'm not that hard to find on said site. ;) But on to the subject. [size=3][b]!~~PICTUREZORZ~~![/b][/size][color=#ededed]..nessnessdome.[/color] I have this picture which was taken when my girlfriend and I were fooling around with the camera in the field behind her house. I like it because my head doesn't seem as bloated as it usually does. I guess it's because of the light of the sun making way to much shine on right cheek. Actually, this is what I usually look like, just with dress pants. I made this one an image instead of a link since the title of the thread says "Image Heavy" so I'll try not to disappoint. [indent][img]http://r2vq.yamifarao.net/selfpics/epic.jpg[/img][/indent] I also have this picture which was taken when we went out to eat at the Japanese/Korean restaurant that I don't really like at all. I'm not sure if it's just Korean food I don't like, or if it's that restaurant. I do like Korean BBQ though so it might just be the restaurant. Their Dragon Rolls were good too. But I digress. This too hides my head size since I'm not facing the right way. [indent][url=http://r2vq.yamifarao.net/selfpics/hungry.jpg]This one stretches the layout so click this link instead.[color=#ededed] Please. =)[/color][/url][/indent] Now, if you'd like to see the size of my head, you'll have to take a look at a picture I took a few years back... it's the only one I'm not all ninja like. Instead I actually look at the camera straight on... [indent][url=http://r2vq.yamifarao.net/selfpics/moo.jpg]This sentence is also a link, but for no real good reason considering the picture is a lot smaller. I guess I'm just a sucker for dial up users. :)[/url][/indent] I've really changed eh? -r2[/color]

[color=#007520]I just pictured the older pixel drawn (8-bit?) versions of Mario and Sonic jumping on one another. [color=#ff0000]

[quote name='Treble']As for characters, the legendary Samus makes a return and is now shinier than ever. And I guess that means that Samus and Zero Suit Samus will be two different playable characters instead of just one as I originally thought.[/quote][color=#007520]Didn't Masahiro Sakurai say in an interview that Zero Suit Samus would be a version of Samus? I guess in the same way that Mario and Dr. Mario... or maybe Zelda and Sheik. Here, I found the wiki. :) . [quote]Samus Aran has changed the most of all; "under certain conditions," she will remove her Power Suit, taking up the name "Zero Suit Samus". Donning only her Zero Suit, she wields a gun that can transform into a laser whip.[/quote]I'm looking forward to Sonic the Hedgehog. Apparently Nintendo already contacted Sega about it since he's the most requested character, but Sega hasn't put out word if they'll do it. Considering there's a Sonic/Mario Olympics game coming our way for the Wii, I'm sure he'll be in it though. :3 -hums the Sonic 2 theme- -r2[/color]

[quote name='Lady Asphyxia][font=Arial][size=2][color=DarkGreen]The first seasons were the originals and classics, and I think that's because of Matt Groening's influence. When he left, it became a little lackluster.[/color][/size'][/font][/quote][color=#007520]Matt Groening left? His wiki page says nothing about it... Though it does say 4 of the episodes that he was credited with writing... 3 of which I wasn't a big fan of. I liked the Simpsons a lot when I was younger. Ironically I wasn't allowed to watch it, but was enough of a Simpsoniac to get a Bart Simpson Doll, and a [i]whole[/i] lot of books. All of them (sans Bart Simpson's Guide To Life - which was stolen in Grade Six :() I still have today. In fact, I can honestly say that I've seen every episode in the first 12 seasons at least once, and every episode in the first 8 seasons at least 5 times. Heh, I still remember the words to "See My Vest" and "Who Needs the Kwik-E-Mart". I haven't seen any of it's more recent episodes though... I think I stopped watching when they visited Toronto... -r2[/color]

[color=#007520]The original question was posted in April and there's been little discussion since. The original poster hasn't even returned to reply. I think it's safe to say this thread has died, so I'll be closing it. Miss April, please try to not ressurect dead threads, unless they're listed in the [thread=38208]Official Anime Threads Directory[/thread]. Thread Closed. -r2[/color]

[quote name='Nerdsy][color=deeppink']You all can thank me with candy.[/color][/quote][color=#007520]I will thank you with candy, and because you reversed time I already did, meaning I don't have to anymore, meaning when I give you candy you'll be owing me candy. In fact that argument folds itself over a million times over so you now owe me all the candy you can muster. That my friend, is my surge fist. -r2[/color]

[color=#007520]Madarame! Anyway, this is a really ugly one... but I had to guess the answer to the previous entry. :3 I love Genshiken. [url=http://www.miieditor.com/?mii=000000640065006600610075006c00740042006f00793f4180807f5fc2428998c0048520518024e1908e06406170b8b1008a008a25040000000000000000000000000000000000000000]Character[/url] 1. His Japanese name means "Sword" and "Cleverness" 2. He wouldn't object if... actually he would. 3. He owns a pink GBA SP. -r2[/color]

[quote name='2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkOrange']Dragon Ball has been around longer than Street fighter...[/COLOR][/quote][color=#007520]Oh please. Everyone who's anyone knows that Dragon Ball is actually the brainchild of a time-travelling esper from the year 2359. In fact, he stole the idea from the game "Street Fighter II - Super Extreme Ultra Fanatic Dragon Ball Edition". If it weren't for the fact that I'm still defrosting my hadouken from the time we fought on the Titanic, I'd hadouken you back Ryu's home planet, Kakarot, for insulting Tori Akirayama. [color=magenta]*r2vq shakes his head in disappointment.[/color] -r2[/color]

[color=#007520][quote name='Jeremiah']So I guess my trick of dubling the canvas size and placing the two images side by side isn't going to work? I need to eyedrop sample them somehow because my laptop screen doesn't always accurately reflect true colours.[/quote]Like Desbreko did, I suggest you use a tool that will sample the image colour and give it to you in a numerical value so as to reproduce it exactly. I'm not sure about the programs you use, but I'm guessing that most advanced image editing programs would be able to do that. If you're comparing them side by side, though, I'm guessing that you probably did the sampling properly, but the compression used when saving would be the main issue. Make sure when you save the file that you aren't compressing the image, or if you are, at least the colours attaching the image to the previous one are preserved. -sigh- I've been watching this thread with a green eye, wishing my computer was working... [color=#cccccc]and that I wasn't, so that I would have the time to join. T_T ... and you know... change my avatar or something.[/color] -r2[/color]

[color=#007520]lol, the hints make it too easy. Those are pretty good Mii's though. By the way did you know [b]Chuck Norris'[/b] tears can cure cancer? It's too bad he never cries. :3 I made one, not as good as yours, but it's a little more "hardwired" oriented, I think. ;) [url=http://www.miieditor.com/?mii=09c0006f002e006f0000000000000000000000000000404400000001c2000001c40079c092400af2946d466061c0b05104690e8a2504004d0069006900200045006400690074006f0072]Click for Character[/url] 1. Originally just a pallet swap. 2. World Warrior, Champion of the U.S. Martial Arts tournament 3 times in a row. 3. Uppercut! -r2[/color]

[quote name='Aceburner']BTW: anyone who hasn't seen the original: Yu-Gi-Oh is supposed to be about death, not friendship. Guess who got their grubby little hands on THAT franchise.[/quote][color=#007520]I'm going to argue that even if it dealt with death more than Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters, it was still about friendship. Take for example the first episode, where Yuugi [spoiler]defends[/spoiler] Jounouchi and Honda [spoiler]from that bully.[/spoiler] Yes, it was a death [spoiler]defying stunt and psychotic torture that he used,[/spoiler] but it was still in the name of friendship! That, and the first part of Yuugi and the first part of Jounouchi put together creates "Yuujou" which means friendship. -r2[/color]

[color=#007520]So does that mean I'll be getting the first four episodes as a double dip? >.< -r2[/color]

[quote name='Darren][B]EDIT:[/B']After reading up a the previous posts I realize that it was all AFTER the credits with the 10 years later and such!!! Why do I never stay after the credits???[/quote][color=#007520]Yeah, Pirates has had stuff after the credits since Movie 1. P1 CotBP - [spoiler]Monkey steals a gold coin to become immortal again.[/spoiler] This explains some scenes in Movie 2. P2 DMC - [spoiler]Dog runs away from cannibals.[/spoiler] Short, cute, and pointless. Doesn't really explain any scenes in Movie 3. P3 AWE - [spoiler]We see Will meet his daughter for the first time after 10 years.[/spoiler] Nice way to close off their storyline. My question is, why was [spoiler]Barbossa one of the Pirate Lord Captain things? I thought he wasn't in command before they marooned Jack...[/spoiler] -r2[/color]

[color=#007520]I'm pretty sure it's not from any Anime proper, but it is from a Japanese visual novel or sim game. I'm not sure which, since I don't know what the title is, but it might be "Princess Witch" considering the name of the image. Another thing I can't confirm, whether or not it's a perverted game. -r2[/color]

[quote name='Dagger']All the subsequent special editions (after v. 1) really get you are the broadcast order discs and the CDs--and the broadcast order can technically be recreated with the regular editions, if you have the energy for it. I think the CDs might also be sold separately.[/quote][color=#007520]Hey Dagger, did your Box have [b]The Adventures of Mikuru Asahina[/b] and [b]The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Parts 1-3[/b]? Or did I get the wrong (non-special edition) Box? >_> I thought the Special Editions would be broadcast order... meaning [b]The Boredom of Haruhi Suzumiya[/b] should've been in there... [size=1]I hope I didn't pick up the wrong box at the con because I also bought an extra copy of Genshiken 6...[/size] But I digress, I wasn't as pleased with Kyon as you were, especially in the first two episodes. JYB as Itsuki, though, I fell in love with the moment I heard him. Asakura gave me a similar impression when I first heard her, but she sounded better as she went along. There was that moment when we had to stop and say, "Oh! She sounded good there!" -r2[/color]

[quote name='Nerdsy][color=deeppink]Okay, though, here's what I want to know. [spoiler]How did the conspiracy know that Peter was going to asplode? Clearly they have either a precog or a time traveler. Charles may fit the bill for precog (assuming for the moment that my "vision" theory is correct), but it could also be one of the Petrellis. Or for that matter, Kaito. Or it could be someone completely different.[/spoiler'][/color][/quote][color=#007520]Well, they already said that [spoiler]Dallas had a power. I'm not sure who, but i think it was his wife who said this to Nathan. And remember that Linderman had a room full of predictions for the future. I'm sure there were a few precogs before Isaac. They wouldn't have been around at the same time, otherwise Noah (snicker) wouldn't have relied on him so much during the "Save the Cheerleader" arc.[/spoiler] Question: Why did [spoiler]Nathan have to fly Peter away just to have them both die? Why couldn't Claire just shoot him if he was going to die anyway? Or did Nathan drop Peter in space so that they could both survive?[/spoiler] On second thought, [spoiler]if Claire had shot Peter in the back of the head, he would have died, but the explosion would be stopped. If Peter had exploded, he would have survived (like in the alternate future timeline where Future Hiro is from) but everyone else would have died. So, Nathan flew Peter into the air and distanced himself from him enough to survive. This way Peter can still recover from his explosion, and New York wouldn't be destroyed.[/spoiler] New Question: Why couldn't [spoiler]Peter have just flown himself?[/spoiler] Possible Answer: He could have been [spoiler]way too distracted by his body exploding and thus unable to concentrate....[/spoiler] -r2[/color]

[color=#007520]It took long enough, but I'm caught up. :3 [quote name='Kei][size=1][spoiler]it's going to end up being Neo Team 7 vs. Hebi before it's Sasuke vs. Itachi[/spoiler'][/size][/quote][spoiler]I pictured Team 7 and Hebi eventually teaming up against Itachi... Though I guess that's just way too predictable. The new swordsman battles will be epic...[/spoiler] I like yours better. xD [spoiler]Was anybody else disappointed that we didn't get to see Naruto's ultimate perverted technique that he invented during training? No? Just me? Oh... Did anybody else notice how quickly Sai was shafted to a secondary, Sakura-type character? He went from evil double crossing spy with no emotions to random comic relief. When the two of them went to back up Shikamaru, they didn't even [i]do[/i] anything.[/spoiler] -r2[/color]

[quote name='Nehszriah']Correct me if I'm wrong.[/quote][color=#007520]I'm pretty sure you're wrong. [spoiler]Nevada* or whatever his codename was stopped Linderman from healing Au Co. If New York* hadn't done that, Linderman would have been able to get to her in time and Linderman wouldn't have been so angry at him later on. That's why Linderman didn't back California* up later on.[/spoiler] And apparently [spoiler]Arizona*[/spoiler] has a power? I guess it was unlocked after the comic somehow? About Peter, I agree with you guys all the way. In fact as we were watching last weeks episode, everyone in the room couldn't help but comment on [spoiler]how stupid he was being. Just like how he was facing away when he was fighting Sylar. @_@[/spoiler] One Episode Left!!!!11one!!11!exclamationmark -r2 [size=1]*[spoiler]I don't remember his name. I think it was Dallas?[/spoiler][/size][/color]

[color=#007520]Well, I didn't mean to be idolizing Hiro, though I know that's how it sounded. More along the lines of... [spoiler]I think Hiro will be the one to make a drastic change in the next two episodes to prevent the events of the original timeline from happenning. Since nobody else has seen the future but Hiro and Ando (and[/spoiler] we all know Ando is only there for the yaoi fangirls in Japan ;) [spoiler]) they would continue to do what they did in the original timeline.[/spoiler] And concerning Season 2... I think one of my friends described it really well when he said "Heroes is one of those series where they should just make one season and then a movie." -r2[/color]

[color=#007520]I'm just happy that Sylar's [spoiler]humanity was played up[/spoiler] in the latest episode. The way his [spoiler]mom acted? That explains everything that is his character. The way he called Mohinder in desperation before giving up and hanging up? Beautiful.[/spoiler] Count them down with me guys. 2 more episodes left. [spoiler]The way I see it, if Hiro doesn't act any different from the way he would have acted before, the original timeline would occur... so Hiro is the one that will change everything, even if it's only by inspiring others.[/spoiler] -r2[/color]

[quote name='MistressRoxie][color=#9933ff']Wish I could see the cosplay. >

[quote name='Kirra][COLOR=RoyalBlue][FONT=Comic Sans MS]Do you mean Battle Tower?[/FONT'][/COLOR][/quote][color=#007520]By Level-Matching, I meant that if you played Wi-Fi with a friend and chose to battle either a "Lv 100" or "Lv 50" battle, all the Pokémon in your party will be at those levels, no matter what level they really are at. Ikillion and I tried it the other day. Your real level seems to still make a big difference so I'm not sure how the stats are calculated... Anyway, I haven't had much time to play this game since I've been working so much this week, so I've made no progress... and Tatsu if you keep posting how much you've beaten the game on Facebook, I going to start thinking you're showing off. :P -r2[/color]
