This wallpaper gives us a perfect example of how a simple manga scan can be turned into a beautiful vector. Not only did danalm trace the lineart, but he also added amazing details and a simple, yet wonderful background. Furthermore, the wallpaper shows us how the monochromatic style can make your work look really interesting.

What would a complete stranger of the opposite sex have to do to convince you to date them within 30 minutes of meeting you?

Talk casually, probably to try to get to know each other as soon as you can.

Well, she'd have to talk a lot, about at least a couple of things she likes, and she'd have to be very passionate about them. Not frivolous stuff like clothes, money and such, but something to show me she has found something in life that's worth it, so that I she's worth the while. Now good, extra points would be talking about Japan (language, food, anime, whatever), awareness about the current political situation in our country (Mexico), and maybe an insight on why is life a funny thing ^.^

Half an hour is not time enough for me 'cause I'm rather shy and don't open up to people I just met. That could be enough time for, say, finding we have something in common and be interested in getting to know each other a little more. Dating right away can end up pretty bad if not be dangerous.

To convince me to date them? They'd have to be a person that can stretch 30 minutes into 3 or so months. I'd rather get to know a person as a friend before I get to know them as a girlfriend. And yes, I make that distinction - I think if you can be good friends, you'll be a great couple.

That, and I'm pretty shy. They'd probably have to be the most talkative and patient person, as I'd probably make a fool of myself. I definitely get tongue tied with women.

Well, if someone wants to date me, all they have to do is ask. I'm single, high-spirited, and always looking for a good friend. I take the concept of dating rather lightly. What i mean to say is, the purpse of dating is to see if you and a certain someone get along really well, right? So let's go on a date. If we get along, fantastic! If not, neither of us should beat ourselves up over it. Assuming the date wasn't a freakish disaster, we could still be friends, just not *close* friends.

The only way I would date a stranger in 30 minutes is that he looks, talks and behaves like my Rutherford *check images below* |(VcV)| emoticon or that the person managed to charm me on first sight...

Back to seriousness, 30 minutes is too short for a person to go on a date with someone else, and girls should be more cautious of dating someone they barely know. Like gilead said, the ones who are unlucky might end up on 6 o clock news or have their faces plastered on the 'missing' column the next day. It's not a wise move to date with strangers. Better start with being friends, get to know him or her better and observe them.

Mm it is too short. but that's the point no?
anyway, I think that he have to show me he's smart and that we just... have really fun together in those 30 minuets.
oh and its probably help if he's a friend of someone I know..
so i really wont get to the missing people report #(u_u)# emoticon

All they have to do is make eye contact and smile.
Majority of the time, its me who has to do the talking. There was one time I was at work at the front register and these older girls came up. One of the girls says "My friend thinks you're cute" and she was standing right there. I honestly was speechless because at that exact moment the thoughts of my past and how much courage it took to even talk to a girl went through my mind and here is someone who openly says it...
What should I have said? I just smiled >_> When girls try to talk to me at work, its ALWAYS busy T_T
Guys arent used to hearing compliments, because its usually us who say them. Hell I even say them without even realising it.

She would have to catch me off guard and ask me something completely, yet semi-important, say for example my feelings on religion or abortion, which tells me I could have an interesting time with this person.

@ gilead: Word. I agree. But not everyone you meet is a serial rapist O_O There are good people out there, they're just hard to find... Go out in 30 minutes... Well you have to talk first and get to know each other. That's the only thing I can think of. Oh, and chemistry... well you have to know each other first to find that. But I don't think it's possible in 30 minutes, you probably THINK you can date them but not yet.

In half an hour? o.o I don't even think anyone could convince me to go on a date with them within an half an hour. Especially if I don't know them... I like to get to know people really well before I decide go out with them. It's a lot safer and plus you get a chance to see if they really would be worth pursuing a relationship with.

That's tough...

I doubt that it could be done for me, I'm sure there is some exception, but I haven't had this exception yet. I generally become friends with someone, before I want to go out with them.

I don't think its possible for two people to get together within a span of 30 minutes.

It takes time and patience to get a relationship going and I sure am a testament to that. It took me 2 years trying to get the attention of my girlfriend and I sure was relieved when she said "yes" when I finally asked her out on a date.
