Go and make me things now. Please. And have fun... if you want. I don't really care if you do it in a dark corner listening to emo music. But do make me stuff, because I would particularly enjoy that.

Well, I did a set. Keep in mind I only have MSPaint and Adobe PhotoDeluxe, so it kinda sucks...

If you consider Green Day "emo music", then I did :-P



The fact that I chose this topic was an inside joke-- we were talking the other day, and I'm a Green Day maniac and she dosen't like them at all, so of course I HAD to use the Green Day-themed idea

[Bangel]

Haha :P

I love the image you used, thanks for the set, Robin. :)

[DM was on fire!]

I'm beating WIS to it, and making a House set.

[_jade_em_]

So I assume we're to take lyrics from the "Songs" category and using them as subtexts, right?

This image is from the cover of one of my Buffy comic books.

Great, take advantage of the fact that my monitor on my main computer is messed up. >_>

Well, would've been great if you had told me, SIW-SIW. I would've let you go ahead!

[Bangel]

Looking excellent, Stampsyne. :)

Is that comic book "Hush" themed, perhaps?

[stampsyne]

I don't recall

[WIS]

I just thought of this the other day. A set and a bump.

[kanashimi]

I made a set... only one so far, but i will be making some more soon...





Hope you like it.

[edit] Bleh, made it the wrong size x_x...

[Bangel]

Oooh, very nice indeed, kanashimi. Great job. :)

And great job to you, too, Wis- lime green and grey are probably my favorite colors. :)
