Hey! Thanx for liking my Cowboy Bebop scans... I really like this anime, which I consider one of the best of all times. Thanx for your kind comments! Sorry to answer kind of late..but I had a lot to deal with the past months... See ya! Ciao ciao!

hey there appreciate the coment on my pic Sai/saku
and I know Sai doen't wear the shirts that long but if you were cold would you?
:D LOL
I don't beleive in Tenten/Neji (p>O<p)
and Sasu/saku is alright but sasuke is obviously with *caugh* I think you know who I mean LOL not really I think he might like Sakura but honestly Sakura is way nicer to Naruto so there is a chance and Sai obviously likes her *go Sai!*
Sai is kool :X
I dropped Sasuke ever since he betrayed konoha so............I can't really support his otherwise but hey we all like different things and if Sasuke can redem himself there should be no reason why he can't be with Sakura right?
:D but for now I stick with Sai/saku
glad you even took the time to look at the pic........I really appreciate it

You dont have to be crazy to join...but c`mon, its fun!

As soon as this guestbook entry is time marked 2 weeks ago, your time is up!

ROUND 6! walling fight ALL SET! READY...GO!

This fortnight's theme is MAD SCIENCE!

The time limit is 2 weeks... so start as soon as you get this gbook entry ^^

Category: Anime(Or Game) wallpapers (or vectors)

Villainy: definition AS follows

1. The line for this contest is 'The line between insanity and genius is measured only by success.'. This time, think of it more as inspiration, than an actual guideline.

2. When walling, just try to capture a feeling. Really make the wall`s point come across without having to tell anyone anything. Whatever it is you`re going for, make it come alive.

This time, no real limitations on scans or categories. Go nuts!

HAVE FUN!

Rules:

1. Tutorials are allowed to help you, but bear in mind that it is very obvious when you use tutorials
2. Vectors are allowed.
3. Make sure your wallpaper is at least 1280x960 pixels in size! Other resolutions 1280x1024 and 1600x1200. Believe me, they are fun to make. And people love em more. The bigger the better. Now you know that size matters, at least in wallpapers.

Judging criteria:

1. Technicality/ balance of overall composition
2. Colour combination
3. Originality/ artistic expression (message being carried out)
4. Overall feel/ reception of audience
5. Relevance to the theme/ theme sentence

Judging rules:

1. Number of layers is not taken into account for judging

2. There will be a "member voted" wall.
3. For votes, you have three votes 1, 2 and 3. First being the one you like the most, down to the third. You do NOT vote for yourself.
4. Members will favourite the wallpapers they LIKE THE most. This doesn't mean the one you put down first or second etc. but do make an effort to support the wall you feel deserved a fave.
5. Will try to not seek external help, and if they cannot meet the deadline, contact in advance.

Extra info:

1. From the second time onwards, there'll be a new winner called "most improved" that everyone will vote for.

4. When you have finished your wallpaper, you post a link in the group guestbook, and in the gallery description, write that it is for the UnderAppreciated Group competition so we will know where to find it. Preferably paste in a link to the group page so that other members can see other works.

[AMALGAMATION]
Here we are with the Preliminary guidelines for within our own group.
DETAILS: To create a wall with as many techniques as you can at your disposal. Also, try to create a piece of work that looks different to your other gallery entries
CLOSING date: 28th August
SCANS: Kino no Tabi - any image from Kino no Tabi on minitokyo or off.
- Chosen because of it's image diversity (you don't even need to have a person in your wallpaper, just make a wallpaper based on the motorads) with grainy manga scans and clean lined anime scans to boot.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Large size wallpaper
- provide a link to a wallpaper that covers all the other skills you couldn't display in this wallpaper when posting in the guestbook.
GUIDELINES:
Only ONE Amalgamation entry per person. You may choose to change your entry after submission, but only one is allowed to be entered.

Hi akhilliades,
I'm just stopping in to see what's going on. I'm trying to keep in contact with my friends. Hope things are fine and well. Later.

The {Now Fornightly} UnderAppreciated Group Competition
We`re crazy, but at least that`s a good thing..usually!

As soon as this guestbook entry is time marked 2 weeks ago, your time is up!

WELP! First time around for lil ol` Teryon to be doing this, so bear with.

What was Round one for?
Round one was to increase the activity.

What was Round two for?
Scabbing favourites

What was Round three for?
To blow your mind away. Haha.

What is Round Four For?
Well, to see what we can do.

This fortnight's theme is QUOTATION

The time limit is 2 weeks... so start as soon as you get this gbook entry ^^

This means the category Anime wallpapers (or vectors)

STIMULUS: definition AS follows

1. Below ye shalt find a quote from a song.
2. Based on that quote, ye shall make a wall.
3. In your wall you have to have something dealing with taking chances, living life..fire is optional
4. Here`s the whole fun of it all:

You must use a less-popular scan! Thats right, none of those that get the 100+ favs, or are seen on every wall. I know its a little vague, if you have questions feel free to bug me eternally(since I came up with this limiter).

5. When you submit your wallpaper in the group guestbook, have the link to you wall and state your category, along with fav #. Anything under 20, basically, is alright, again unless its been used a million times.

Here is your quote:

"Life is not tried it is merely survived when you're standing outside the fire." - Garth Brooks "Standing Outside the Fire"

Use this as a basis to create the theme of your wall. So go get the song and listen to the music, or just go with it as ye will! Most importantly, HAVE FUN!

Rules:

1. Tutorials are allowed to help you, but bear in mind that it is very obvious when you use tutorials
2. You can just have a single crotchet or whatever floating randomly on the page. It can be tiny, but make sure the judges can see it, cuz if they can�t you didn�t go by the theme! (Even so, minimalising the theme to such an extent is pretty sneaky anyways lol)
3. Vectors are allowed.
4. Make sure your wallpaper is at least 1280x960 pixels in size! Other resolutions 1280x1024 and 1600x1200 Believe me, they are fun to make. And people love em more. The bigger the better. Now you know that size matters smiley

We’re crazy, but at least that’s a good thing!

As soon as this guestbook entry is time marked 2 weeks ago, your time is up!

Well, it must’ve been the most busiest season, but heck we still have the entries for ya ^_^ Also, this entry has arrived early in your guest book, because Misa will be leaving MT. I will no longer be the one posting these notifications in your guestbook or tidying the pages, but never fear ^_^ The saga lives on *music*

The time limit is 2 weeks... so start as soon as you get this gbook entry ^^

This means the category Anime wallpapers (or vectors)

STIMULUS: definition AS FOLLOWS

1. Below you’ll find a cute looking gif file. It should be flapping around.
2. Use that gif as a stimulus. No, it ain’t the wings you’re meant to concentrate on. It’s the blasted music.
3. In your wallpaper you must have something music related. It can be in a hall, you can have the Sydney Opera House in the back, a stereo on the table, a character wearing headphones, a few obscure musical notes, a band score as the back, a CD shelf, a CD store, Michael Jackson, an iPod, sony: it doesn’t matter how large or small the reference to music is. It just has to be there. And if you –really- want, have something flapping as well
4. Here’s the whole fun of it all:

Your wallpaper must be submitted into a category with LESS THAN 100 items IN IT

So say goodbye to that Naruto scan with Sasuke holding the guitar- yeah!

5. When you submit your wallpaper in the group guestbook, have the link to you wall, state your category and roughly state the number of gallery items in it. You do not need to tell us 99 or 67, just tell us close to 100 or 70, but it cannot have MORE than 100 gallery items.

Here is your friend:

Use this as a basis to create the theme of your wall. So listen to the music, move with the beat: turn up the volume and get it on! ^_^

Rules:

1. Tutorials are allowed to help you, but bear in mind that it is very obvious when you use tutorials
2. You can just have a single crotchet or whatever floating randomly on the page. It can be tiny, but make sure the judges can see it, cuz if they can’t you didn’t go by the theme! (Even so, minimalising the theme to such an extent is pretty sneaky anyways lol)

So last reminder:

MUSIC and BIG wallpaper resolution!

Ara... I'm fully writing too much for my own good

The {Now Fornightly} UnderAppreciated Group Competition
It's more frequent now so that we can get a cycle going... and I realised how restless the judges will get XP

As soon as this guestbook entry is time marked 2 weeks ago, your time is up!

The last theme has been quite a success to say, considering it was the first ^_^ This time, things will get even -more- interesting. You may have realised that the themes have not been particularly easy, but after all, it's a challenge ^_^ You learn... ehehe

What was Round one for?
Round one was to increase the activity. Once other members realise that people actually are entering, hopefully we'll get more members, and thus more entries. There will be a thread that'll have the comp details and such... I'll get around to it...

What is Round two for?
After realising that it is hard to get favourites in the original section this time I have decided to revert back to the trashy scan idea. Haha. Anyway. If you were a little upset about missing out on faves last time, this time you'll get the faves for sure. Well, read on first

This fortnight's theme is APPROPRIATION

The time limit is 2 weeks... so start as soon as you get this gbook entry ^^

This means the category Anime wallpapers (or vectors)

APPROPRIATION: definition AS FOLLOWS

1. Below are three links to three very popular animes or categories
2. You can use any style you want. Don't care if you grunge, vector, abstract, flip it, rotate it, crop it, cut it, invert it- it's up to you.
3. All three scans have some sort of "bad quality" to it.
4. It could be that there is text covering the chara, or that it is hard to extract; either way, that is part of the challenge.
5. Pick ONE of the scans I have provided links for. These images were selected pretty much at random, taken into consideration what other walls have done. These are generally the not so popular scans people wall.
6. Appropriation - Please read the following sentence I have typed:

There is no darkness where there is light

Use this as a basis to create the theme of your wall. It ties in well for all 3 scans, so nobody should have any trouble. You do not need to incorporate it into the title or whatever, but it will be nice if you copy and paste that phrase, followed by what you thought when you read the line. This should be reflected in the wall.

SCANS
Here are the 3 scans. Choose ONE. The categories are Sumi Keiichi, Tenjho Tenge and AIR respectively. They are popular and high quality scans, that are not as popular and not walled as much. I haven't seen any of the three anime, and it doesn't matter at present. Choose your scan wisely. No scan takes precedence over the others, but makes sure your wall will reflect the theme sentence!

Rules:

1. Tutorials are allowed to help you, but bear in mind that it is very obvious when you use tutorials
2. You can use other scans in conjuction with those above. However, you must include the compulsory scans
3. Vectors are allowed.

Judging criteria:

1. Technicality/ balance of overall composition
2. Colour combination
3. Originality/ artistic expression (message being carried out)
4. Overall feel/ reception of audience
5. Relevance to the theme/ theme sentence

Judging rules:

1. Number of layers is not taken into account for judging
2. Amount of time taken to make it is not considered
3. Member's level number, reputation or experience not taken into account
4. Number of favourites, comments, downloads and views of entry not taken into account
5. Accuracy of the application of PS filters not taken in account to prevent members from using tutorials
6. Effort is considerable

Members:

1. Also vote on the wallpapers and lend out their comments.
2. There will be a "member voted" wall.
3. For votes, you have three votes 1, 2 and 3. First being the one you like the most, down to the third. You do NOT vote for yourself.

The {Monthly} UnderAppreciated Group Competition

As soon as this guestbook entry is time marked 2 weeks ago, your time is up!

We have decided to conduct a competition for our group ^^
So what is this for?
Well, we thought that this would be a great idea to get members to look at each other's stuff, and it's just a bit of fun so that you can think through what you want to do with this (^_~)

Basically we give out a theme or category and sometimes even a theme sentence you must incorporate into the wallpaper or a sentence you must complete ^_^

This month's theme is ORIGINAL

The time limit is 2 weeks... so start as soon as you get this gbook entry ^^

3. You may colour these scans yourself or vector them as you like.
4. Preferably this is incorporated into a WALLPAPER.
5. Stock photos may be used.

Rules:

1. Tutorials are allowed to help you, but bear in mind that it is very obvious when you use tutorials
2. You cannot use the above mentioned scans, even if you invert them or vector them.
3. Vectors are allowed. Scans that are coloured by manga groups are NOT allowed.
4. The wallpaper does not necessarily have to include a character. It can be a landscape you have created if you wish.
5. It may be a abstract wall for desktop use if you wish, though keep in mind they need endless experimentation and extensive knowledge of filters.

Judging criteria:

1. Technicality/ balance of overall composition
2. Colour combination
