Maerua Nariana Yeah, I'm gonna like change a sentence. Watch it take me half an hour. xD (Sorry for being afk, was stuck washing a ton of silverware that I didn't use at all) I was more hoping you'd put it into your own words. Fifteen minutes is my minimum. I always end up writing something out, then rephrase it a few times, then change it outright, rephrase again, then I notice there's a typo...you get the picture. And sometimes there's still typos that get through. I've been rewriting it for 40 min. What'd I tell you. orz Eating now since it's taking too long. Idk why I thought 1 sentence would do anything.

Chieftain Twilight you are seriously a codesaver (like a lifesaver, but for computer code). emotion_hug Thanks smile I went to check out your character profiles in progress, opening all the spoiler tabs at once, and the alignment turned out completely different than I expected. Your large image is on its own part, then everything else is nested as if it were the content of a post style.

Peanut butter and banana toast DEVOURED. emotion_dowant
Anyway. I was about to comment on Twi's pic, coincidentally. I opened the tabs out of curiosity and saw the same.

Rewriting is: Reading -> Decoding -> Rephrasing -> Typing much like how Replying is: Reading -> Decoding -> Interpreting -> Holistically Analyzing -> Reacting/Responding -> Typing Replying might be a (proportionally) longer process but there's still a lot of brainwork involved in either.

Brainwork or not, I still say rewriting is more difficult. It's done for now, though. emotion_donotwant Managed to keep it the same length as before, too.

I may need to put Twi's image on the right instead of the left.... unless I can find out how to resize it. it's the image that Soubi drew for me. all the Avatar Art I have for Twi is either too big or not high enough quality.

If you use software like Photoshop or GIMP, there's a menu option where you can resize the image. In GIMP: 1. Image->Scale Image 2. Click on one of the dropdown menus where it says px, change it to percent. If done correctly, the values in the x and y boxes should both be 100. 3. Change one of those boxes to your desired scale (multiples of 25 work best by default). 4. Click out of the box or press enter and it should change the rest to match. 5. Then click apply or whatever. Keep in mind the zoom that you're using, and if you screw it up you can always hit ctrl-z (undo).

If you have an up-to-date installation of Windows XP, it will be SP3. IIRC service packs were part of regular Windows updates. If you run Windows Vista, Win7 or 8, you're fine. 32bit and 64bit refer to computer architecture. Chances are you're running 32bit, and if not, it's still safe to install programs meant for 32-bit on a 64-bit machine (but never the other way around). The GIMP installer will be able to figure out which version to install for you. Regarding what's "worth it": I don't know what you're asking about. The program itself? Absolutely. There's a lot that you can do in GIMP that you can't do in Paint, and it also sizes up to the costly Photoshop very well for something free and cobbled together by a bunch of volunteers. Scroll down to GIMP for Windows on the downloads page, then click the HTTP link on the line that says "Download GIMP 2.8.10 via...". Should download the .exe that you then run. HTTP ( hyper text transfer protocol) is regular web protocol, and will start the download with no hassle. FTP ( file transfer protocol) ends up working exactly the same on modern browsers, but is also accessible through FTP clients for situations where using a web browser won't do.

You can always use Photobucket.com If you make a free account, they have loads of options to edit photos, including resizing.

@Nariana: I like the revisions to your profile. Very nicely written.
On a side note, I think I may have finally finished Rose and Louie's profiles. I may go back and adjust a few things but for now I'm calling it done.

Pshawww. emotion_awesome I like yours, too. 3nodding I imagine new Rosemary like Mikasa from Attack on Titan if you're familiar with the show. If this isn't spoiling anything for later, why does she just follow what her uncle says? Is it to stay with Louie, or just some part of her personality?
