Fly... by °Phill 3 weeks 19 hours ago

This wallpaper captures the urban essence that proliferated the art of Ghost in the Shell in every incarnation of the series. Phill does an amazing job of capturing a moment of surrealism.

While there are a few, stray building angles and shadows, you find that your eye forgives the minor details and instead focuses on the overall scene that is larger than life, with lights trailing off into infinity.

Ah, I see. So after approving is possible to change to even a not listed resolution.

The first was a 4:3 wallpaper. The low res widescreen version has been added later.

Kath: That means that the first was 1440x900?

^hatesyou 36 minutes ago
The 1280x800 version has been uploaded by the user as a first revision. Might pay to get your facts straight before complaining.

°akiranyo 39 minutes ago
We should go up with resolutions not down. Btw AP resizes 1440x900 automatic to 1280x800.

What language do you read your manga in? Do you read Japanese fluently (or well enough to get by) or buy Japanese manga and get text translations? Or do you like scanlations and/or licensed manga?

I myself like getting Japanese manga as there's way more selection (obviously). I can understand a lot of it, but for everything else, there's dictionaries and translations. Plus, it's a lot cheaper to buy the manga in the original language, usually. Although, I do like reading the manga in English, it's just generally not my top choice.

I prefer English

Because:

1. for me buying manga in English is cheaper
2. I don't know how to read Japanese
3. I don't like to open the dictionary and translate

If I do know how to read japanese, yes I will buy in Japanese because there are more Yaoi manga in Japanese.

But for now, English is good

The language that I understand... so english...

But I have 6 japanese manga books... I try to learn japanese even if I don't have high expectations.
But I've bougth the first cause the french editor has stopped its edition and the others because I don't like the editor that's likely to edit it (because of the font, the size and quality of paper).

I know how to read Japanese for the most part, but slang is really hard. I would rather read scanlated manga because at least I don't have to figure out the slangs myself. Hahaha. XD Note that I said scanlated because published mangas usually have *really* bad translations or censors a ton of language or art. Eeeks! >_<

I prefer English manga, I can read some Japanese but not fluently enough to get through a whole book. -_- It's sad.

English, I couldn't get them in Japanese if I wanted to anyway, they don't sell them in Ohio. I read library manga because it's free and I can't download stuff thanks to dial-up. That and when I look at Japanese, I think, "hmm, I don't want to lear that."
