Meh. I stink at making avatars.
Dragyn- This one or the one before this one? I don't remember which one I had before. WAAAIT, i remember. The "psychotic" one, right?

Yep - that's the one indicated. ;D I know, I'm not Dragyn - but I did know the answerer to your question! You don't mind my answering that one - do you, Dragyn? My current avatar is all pixilated, with the shading in solid lines that are way to easy to see.  But, now I'm trying Paint. net - It's awesome! I think I'm getting the hang of it, for the most part.  Though, when I get my first avatar from it - be forewarned: It'll probably make no sense and appear a crazy mess or a distorted, blurry object. |

You could try Gimp- Photoshop for the rest of us.

Gimp - photoshop? O.o
Not sure what you're talking about...
Is it just me, or have we strayed from topic, again?

Yeah, we've strayed, but no worries. I'll set it all back on track, now.
The Gimp and Photoshop are both basically the same as Paint.net. The real difference is that Photoshop costs several hundred dollars (unless you decide to break the law), and the Gimp is slightly harder to figure out (to me) than Paint.net. Both Paint.net and The Gimp are free, so it's up to you.
Anyway, as topic goes, We should probably start a new topic for further discussion on this.
Further commentary should have something to do with PE or be placed in a new topic. Feel free to make some!

Okay.  How'd you get the background on the most recent update to look like that? Will you use markers often in PE? Why does The Mysterious have a star thing with him? Is it normally with him? Or just adding to the picture? |

He always has the orb/sphere. There is a reason for this, but I don't think I'll tell it to you.
I will be doing a lot of work in PE with my Sharpies, yes. Using Sharpies gives it the dark feel I've been enjoying so much. Since the whole thing is going to be deliberately dark, I'll be using Sharpies an awful lot.
To look like what? The weird, twisty, spirally loopy thing? I made the background by putting it under the other frames (using layers) and just made it a "Gradient" in a circular pattern using blue and red, then I used a "polar inversion" distortion, and topped it off with a "twist" distortion.

Oh - okay. I wondered. ;D I'm going to see if I can do it, too. |

Is the place he's at, a particular, certain place in the story - or is it simply that he needed to be somewhere, so you put him there?

He is on top of a certain hill, yes...though I can't think of many important things that happen on said hill...

Is there a map, of the places in Pending Else? A map, where everywhere the characters go and all the places that exist in that world are set out?
That'd be kinda neat, actually...
Anyways, whether it exists, but only in your mind, or not - I'm asking because, well, you have particular places in mind, where important things will happen, right? And I wondered if you had them drawn out on a kinda map. Would that make it easier, or only give you more work to do?
I think that would be neat...
Wow, that was repetitive...

I have drawn several maps of the various areas in Pending Else, as well as a few world maps, but they never look the same twice in a row.
I almost have it set in stone at this point, though.

Are you going to put it or them on the site, for people to see?  |

Maybe I'll put a finalized version up, but not until much later in the story...I tend to mark places you don't need to know about yet.

Oh - well, I look forward to seeing them. Is there one map you keep, or more? |
