"Im sorry to say this but i think that the rain doesnt look much like a rain. looks more like light. in any case, i think you overdid it. the guy looks faint.
yeah the wall looks too empty... maybe you'd like to add a bloody katana beside him? bloody cloth? i don't know, i don't watch the anime...
you can adjust the lighting... try using the spotlight lighting effect. i think it'll look good."

"Seriously if you're crazy about KH, you should play KH:Chains of Memories as well. I think it's an important link to KH2. Well as they say, CoM fills in the gap between KH and KH2. BTW, i love playing Riku than Sora in CoM.

i'm currently so crazy about the new song for KH2, by Utada Hikaru. the song's name is Passion. maybe you guys should listen to it as well."

chobits wall

3 years 11 months ago

"The wall is quite good. if you're doing it on a night bg, perhaps you should some stars... but put them scarcely.
chi lacks details about her... you really have to look closely to make out the details... e.g. the hairband.
the title seem a lil bit out of place... consider a somewhere else maybe...
the texture you used does not fit in with the whole thing. yeah symmetrical texture is just not right, especially with your font.
at the upper right corner, the bg has some checkered box look... it doesn't look that nice.
make the light on the lamp post more bright... so that there's the feeling of 'illuminating light in a dark night'. (whatever am i talking? lol)
you have hidden chi's hair too much i think... hide the hair at the edge would be okay..."

Sakura - Tsubasa Chronicle wall

3 years 11 months ago

"I think your wall is great... love it...
sakura and shaoran doesn't blend too well...
i suggest you use spotlight lighting effect... you can find it under render if you're using PS. adjust the brightness and angle.
and to further improve it, drop inner shadow for sakura and shaoran layers.
i usually use them both and my character's tone and shadow looks great...

look forward to your wall... ^_^"

"Whichever you want to focus on, i think it will still be too plain. well, maybe it's intention but the wall is way too plain. you might want to introduce one more color to the wall, like dark red perhaps... i don't know... maybe you like to keep it monochrome. in any case, try adding something on the black void... something lil bit abstract... but don't overdo it. maybe some suitable texture as an alternative. whatever it is try exploring more, and your wall is gonna be great.
be waiting for your final product."

what is the true meaning of 'nerd'

3 years 11 months ago

"No offense to anyone, but this is how i see a nerd is...

Nerds are guys or girls (although it's usually guys) who need not necessarily wear 'button up or polo shirt and kakhi pants', they tend to dress quite 'formal' in any occasion (not formal as in you wear your tux or whatever), and rarely dress casual. they don't usually involve themselves in any sport, which means that when others are out playing some sport or games, nerds are actually reading books or doing their assignments. this explains why they are skinny and not well-built. you usually see them carrying around books, doing their assignments quietly, studying like crazy etc. because of such behaviour, they are usually very smart and knowledgable and intelligent, always getting good grades. and it is because of these behaviour that they don't really socialize around. people in any society will actually perceive those who don't social around and only doing their own business as somebody who is weird, just because they are different from other 'normal' people.

In my college, they are some nerds (at least the way i see it). but i just befriend them, and they are actually quite nice. i don't quite agree with their behaviour of only doing their own business and not socializing around, because it's not giving them a very happy life. in any case, i always admire their vast knowledge and great intelligence.

like i said, no offense!"

Smoking

4 years 2 weeks ago

"

Seems that there is a lot of smoker haters!!

it's not like i HATE smokers...
it's just that i don't agree with them smoking with people around...
i got friends who smoke... but get along with them... coz they never smoke around me...

Jesus!! I know its going to kill me, so what! Same as drugs, and alcohol, people just don't mind, and its not imposible to quit , just if you really want to quit. I sometimes need something that relax me, and conffort me, maybe thats why i smoke.

i understand most people smoke coz they need to relax
i don't mind people smoking... but it's best for them to smoke away from people... you know, be considerate.
coz people have the right to breathe fresh clean air...
studies have shown that the smoke produced still contain chemicals that promote cancer...
smokers are endangering themselves are one thing (which is completely not my business coz they can think for themselves and they have their own arguments anyway), but they are endangering other people as well...
that's why i said it's better for them to smoke away from other non-smokers...

no offense intended!"

Your Most Embarassing Moment Ever

4 years 2 weeks ago

"I remembered mine back when i was in my high school...
it was a farewell party for all the students in my grade...
i was 17 at that time.
so we had some performance by the students themselves... and i decided to sing with a girl i know...
the song we chose to sing was a famous one... i mean all of the students must have heard of the song before...
the duet was going fine until in the middle of the song i forgot the lyric...
by instinct, i just keep on singing... but i made up the lyric myself.
i was so embarassed, right after the song finished, i went straight to the back of the hall...
i just couldn't see any faces, especially my friend's.
they knew i got the lyric wrong...
GOD! and it was the famous song at that time...

well the next morning, i couldn't get up... coz i got a really bad fever...all because of the embarassment last night..."

Smoking

4 years 2 weeks ago

"I guess i don't really like people smoking NEAR me...
not that i'm an anti-smoker, but the smoke is just choking me...i can't breathe... and i mean it literally...
i mean... those smokers already know that it's bad for their health bla bla bla a waste of money bla bla bla...
but it's just that it's hard for them to stop smoking... at least that's what i ALWAYS hear...
seriousy, smoking is just going to kill yourself...
that's why sometimes, when some guy smoke near me, i feel like saying "LOOK IF YOU WANNA KILL YOURSELF, GO AHEAD... I DON'T GIVE A DAMN... BUT DON'T KILL OTHER PEOPLE NEAR YOU AS WELL, GOT IT?"
the smoke other people inhale is almost as deadly as smoking itself...
jeez... these guys just don't understand...

yeah... i just remembered a poster i saw not too long ago..
it was a picture of a newly wed couple, still in their wedding attire, looking at each other while smiling like they don't give a care about the world...
the guy said, "MIND IF I SMOKE?"
the woman said, "MIND IF I DIE?""

I need a lot of help here

4 years 3 weeks ago

"Here's my honest comment...

the perspective is out...
you really have to change the fence...especially the right and left side... it just wouldn't do if you do like that...
and the court is way too small... but the court line is too big and you need to take into consideration the perspective...
the door doesn't look like a door...
the pillars really need improvement...
the sky is empty... just add cloud and the sun and some birds if you want...
the bushes... maybe you can use some brushes to make it...
i don't really like the ball... it's not convincing enough... but it's not as bad as the others...
oh and the court looks as if it's on top of a hill... really weird... add something?

you really need to do some major change to your wall...
it wont make it through..."

Final Fantasy 7.

4 years 3 weeks ago

"Yeah.. people play games for their stories...
that what makes a game so popular (or not)...
but you can't deny that a game's popularity depends on the graphics...
coz the graphics makes people wanting to play the game even before you know the story is good...
i'd love to play the remake of FF7 on PS3...
hey... come on, you don't just expect better graphics...
surely the gameplay will be slightly different but still using materia...
maybe some extra scene...
extra sidequests... more exciting ones i suppose...
and don't forget the added voice, which will improve your gaming experience...
the remake idea is not so bad!"

"Hmm...

is it night or what? ...in the wall i mean...
if it's night, reduce the brightness of the guy and experiment with shadows and lighting...
and add some water effect on the guy...

the sky doesnt look so real... too many clouds... the further part of the sky should be darker...
and i dont think the grass should be glowing... it seems a little bit out...
try adding something to the bg... it's too empty...
maybe a house? hill? trees? i dont know... but if you were to add, make sure it's dark enough...

maybe you should change the font? it's not really easy on the eyes... like puppychow16 said, it's confusing...

anyway, it's a nice wall...
dont give up!"

More reward???

4 years 3 weeks ago

"

And creating walls is not about gaining papers. It's about personal satisfaction of having made a good wallpaper or having improved by leaps and bounds over your last wallpaper.

i do agree with Dias...
yeah creating walls is all about personal satisfaction...
i do feel it when i create my wall...
but, if wallers are given more papers, i'm quite sure they will be even more happy...

Besides, if the reward was increased, then the amount lost through deletion would increase too - I'm pretty sure that wouldn't make many people happy.

is that really necessary?
i mean... if the reward were to increase, then amount loss through deletion would have to increase as well?
is it possible only to increase the reward?
and it doesnt have to be a significant increase...
it's just that i think 100 papers is not really enough...

thanks..."

it's sad square-enix delayed its release several times before...
KH is already great...
though it's a lil bit childish, but hey... merging square and disney of course it's gonna be that way...
but i hope KH2 is more matured, considering the Another Side Another Story and Deep Dive...
yup the blindfolded guy IS rikku...
not sure about the dual keyblade guy... could be the blond guy... but the macho dual keyblade guys with all that fighting should be sora...it's only appropriate...

i went crazy waiting for KH2 that i replayed KH with hard difficulty level... in the end... ansom is just a wimp after all... *sigh*
