Questions:
can we have special characters in our username?
ie. [ ] ~ ` : . | or space (ie M P h n x)
if not, is it because it will cause problem to our own domain? ie. MPhnx.minitokyo.net
thanks. :D

f

charaznableamurorei: thanks for that. yes the name "Kaze-Hime" certainly rings a bell, in fact, I probably DA watch this user (not sure though). and seeing at the date, it's kinda make sense, maybe I did saw it on Kaze's gallery. thanks again =)

f

hmmm..... the mascot looks very familiar...
I feel like I've seen it outside of MT u_u
anyway....

f

well at least more people know malaysia or Indonesia, or even Singapore. how bout that small country, near Australia, and they are brothers?

f

*catch it with a superficial black hole, shake it then throw odd bits and pieces of an ancient spaceship out of the black hole to next poster*
*hopes that'll fill you up, oh and warning of food poisoning* *grin :D*

f

that could be of low resolution. I usually work on either 300dpi or 600dpi (yes, and large pic too, 1000 to 2000px size or more), and depending which line style suit that particular pic (thick or thin lineart), I'll use 3px to 6px hard brush. And never had problem pixelated like that. printed fine too. for screen view, of course I'll bring the dpi down to either 150dpi or 72dpi, or even reduce the image down too (ie. from 1000px width to 500px width)

f

its not about who does better. its more about... which one brings more capital gain. If people start recognizing anime, won't the America or european people will try to get some slice of it? and if Japan wants to branch out to west side, then won't they try to do what attract westerner?

f

fighthing because of this would be (sorry) stupid, though.
My parents do thought its for kids, the same with consoles games, and cartoon. But they never really get mad or something. if they mad, it'll be more likely that I "waste" too much time on it. Replace "anime/manga" with TV (ie, watch too much TV), won't they get angry too? or replace it with DVDs or video games, and if you waste too much money on it, won't they get angry too?

f

if you mean.. general drawing, well I guess most people do start early, as early as when they can pick up pen crayons etc. But if you mean drawing "anime" art (which.. the majority of arts in Minitokyo), then....
I've been drawing/practicing this kind of art for about 10-11 years. but there was a gap, where I kinda "stop" drawing. but since I found this good site, plus minitokyo, I've been doing it a lot again =)

f

yup, but it's not perfect. By perfect I mean.... it always be in development stage, I just can't make it whole. like... the hair style, the outfit, etc. so everytime I "tried" to draw, it usually different from the last. ^^;;

f

ah.. that's tough choice.
I like shiva too, and Leviathan.
I think for this one, I go with Carbuncle ^^. it can me me "invisible" xD.

btw... Yojimbo, Odin and Gilgamesh, their attacks kinda the same eh?

f

*teleport out of the way. after that gone, casting lots of ice pikes to the next poster.

f

uniforms are fine. at least I don't have/need to think what to wear everyday xD

f

Hi. Question.
I deleted my own item from my gallery, and now it's in quarantine. So.. you cannot delete an item straight away? So I just leave it until the deadline when the item will be purged automatically?
Thank you.

f

Quote by shinsengumi...and agree that you have as much a right as anyone else to a response...
I hope that sounds reasonable. Please accept my apologies for the delay.

Thank you. for the response, as well as your understanding.
It is much appreciated.

Hi, currently not so happy. I feel that I've been ignored all this time. I know that it's holiday season, and maybe most moderators away on holiday as well, but I've check the thread back every now and then, and find that everyone else question has been answered except mine. If one can not answer a member question, and perhaps awaiting other mod to answer it, why can't that mod say something, ie. "hi, I've read your question/complain/suggestion etc, but I have to discuss/ask other mod or still working on the solution. We'll try to get to you asap", so that particular member feels acknowledge. Just like it retail/food industry, where the shop assistance says "I'll be right with you".

Now.. hope this one is not being ignored again. :/

f

still can't view all the images from Minitokyo, either using Firefoz, IE or Safari. or are all the images in Minitokyo somehow coded only for PC? then in that case, that's kinda explained why no pictures show up using Mac.

f

Hi, and welcome :D

f

right. thank you for your direction. *Quickly copy and paste to the right place.

Another one of my wallpaper submittion got deleted, thank you for the notification, but I have to object on this one.

Note: I do not have the image, because I'm posting this through my Mac, but it something like this (plus background of course)

1. I know it's a simple one, but can't we have a simple wallpaper once in a while?
2. Although it looks simple, I did not use any scan or anything, I drew it from sketch, even outlined in using computer, up to the finish stage. So It does look simple, but the process is not (unless I use scan and just chuck in the background, now... that is effortless).
3. IF you think this is not up to PAR, then I would be greatfull if you could suggest me what do I have to add to this piece so that it's in the best state to be publish in the main gallery.
4. when you (or any moderator) deleted a submittion, I really hope (and will appreciate more) if you guys give us the EXACT reason, and not just copy and paste using the general refusal comment (especially the automated reply)
5.

Quote: It was a low effort wallpaper


Quote: We only accept wallpapers where the members make a true effort


now if anyone could suggest me what is the TRUE EFFORT. If sketching it from scratch is not effort, then what is?
6. It’s look simple, but the thought behind it is not. I know the “bunny” stamp kind of backround looks just like a last minute thought, but if anyone CARE to know, it actually gone through some process as well (design wise).

So it is a pity that only things that looks complicated got accepted. I wonder if the gallery moderator even “observe” the submittion more closely. Another pity is the rejection itself, can’t it be at least be a bit more personalize. Because the one I submitted is certainly not

Quote: It used screenshots or unmodified stock photos

, nor

Quote: It featured a poor quality extraction or had many artifacts on the images

, and certainly this one does not apply to mine

Quote: It did not feature an anime-style image

What kind of wallpaper can be submitted then? With lots of grunge background? Or if I draw it myself, with lots of characters?

Now, I do not looking for a fight with MT moderators, especially MT gallery moderator. I’m sure it’s a hard job, and one that is under appreciated (just like a teacher). I am merely another powerless MT member (who is somehow always at fault) looking for a enlightment.
I am just annoyed (reason, read above).
Now, any responses, I thank you in advance. And let’s hope this thread does not get closed down, just because one member voice her disagreement.

Thank you
Sincerely,
MPhnx/Wynnter/Win.

for me none. If I don't have a loving family, I would easily end my life. Yes, they're the only people holding me back to this mortal world.

f

I love K-drama.
not very fond of Jap, but then again, I haven't watch the manga Jap drama.
don't like MG2, so boring, but I heard MG2's not as good as MG.

f

Makin friends over Gaia and Neopet is hard, unless you are super friendly and outgoing. Eventhough I "belong" to several "thread", I'm pratically still "lonely" ^_^ T_T
For me, friends over internet, are just hard, in generall. even in MT (but then again, I only visit MT occassionaly ;P)

f

Yes of course! ^_^ what do you think, when I'm a member of Bubble-tea MT group.
