Whoa, now. Please don't use my Photoshop edits, especially not without asking. EDIT: Thanks again for taking it down, and no hard feelings. It was cool that people on all "sides" were putting effort into this thread. I'm glad I participated: it was a good chance to use some of my rusty PS skills. END EDIT

However, if you had asked, I would have refused, because I'd rather see you put original stuff together, like what you did with your slant on what Motoko might be looking at with her visor/head gear.

Or how about seeing the same thing over and over and over again?

I'm done with this thread.
Heh, I posted about sparkles twice, but I guess I needed to use the F word to be noticed. ;)

One rule I have about effects is, if it's too easy to do (couple clicks to "apply effect"), other people can tell. It's kind of like using the cloud effect in Photoshop to simulate clouds (well, worse, since the sparkles are all animated). The cloud effect can sort of work in some situations, but you still have to hand edit it quite a bit. Can't just apply and go and have it look like anything but a cheap fast food drive through effect.

Now, I like that one. /no1

Hopefully, I can come up with another image edit or two, but I have less free time on weekends.

Thank you for taking it down, kathpatty.

By the way, one problem with using the "opponent's" pictures is they can work as a double advertisement. Especially the beautiful DVD cover and Motoko's backside. ;) Of course, it looks like Sai's pulling away at the end after all, so it doesn't really matter.

Wish I could have joined you two in posting pictures. It looks like I'll be home even less on Sunday... Have fun with the remainder of the poll; I hope to see some more clever selling.

I just have to drop a huge apology to everyone for not being around these last 2 rounds, and giving Motoko the support she deserves. Life has me by the ear and is sort of just taking over (and not always in a good way), so I don't have the time to come up with new banners and stuff, so in the few moments I do get... I've been using old ones, and cheaply editing in photo bucket others. Motoko deserves better from her backer, and Sai deserves better from his competitors backer, but its the best I can give right now. So this is just a public apology to everyone from me not being able to do much.

READ THIS POST!!! READ THIS POST!!!

It's been a really exciting race, hasn't it? I think that regardless of how you feel about either character, only in anime could you have a race for a favorite character be a female futuristic cyborg against a male ancient ghost. Pretty cool, no? 8)

We're now entering the final day of the race and it's time for our 2 nominators to take center stage. :D That's right! I'm calling you gals out. :P

The nominator for Motoko Kusanagi from Ghost in the Shell is HotIce! :woot:

The nominator for Sai from Hikaru no Go is Gonzai! :woot:

These 2 lovely ladies will now be the only ones promoting their characters. Let's cheer them on! :wave: Everyone else, please feel free to congratulate both of them on having their characters make it this far and have general conversations regarding the two anime. However, banners and such selling are only for them. In the manga thread, the final round was dedicated to the nominators. This final day of the anime characters will be too.

Congrats, ladies! :yay May this end in a tie! :yay

(Can you tell I'm trying not to take sides? :wink: )

Well, the nominator for Sai has pnemonia. I will
do what I can, though, while I am strong enough
to be up and about. I wanted to yesterday, but
that just wasn't going to happen. Couldn't even
make it to my granddaughter's b-day party. X|
However, Sai needs the attention he deserves, and
even though I am not as good with these types of
things as Hotice, I will see what I can do. :o
