Oh, and I am sorry, vilkacis: I seriously didn't get it was Imoen. I think the scar(which I mistook for a line on the face) and the mouth fooled me.

:wall: I think that means I need more practice... :lol:

If you have the Gimp, create a new image of suitable dimensions (150x80), add as many layers as frames you need, and paste every frame into a separate layer, putting the last frame of the animation in the top layer. I believe something similar holds true for Photoshit or similar payware editors.

Thanks, I'll take a look on it :)
Heck no, b - I used the word the way I use things like "twitter", and "iPod" - my first inclination is to ask "what birdcall are you studying?" and I think of "I pod, You (singular) pod, He pods, She pods, They pod, You (plural) pod, We pod..."

I just couldn't keep myself in check so I had a go at another one.

Well, the first entry was BG1-before romance; and now I gave it a try at BG2. I don't think it's particularly spoilerish because it doesn't actually say anything but anyone who had played the mod will know what this is about.

A short conversation post Spellhold in the bowls of Underdark between Narra(PC) and Xan. And I blame vilkacis for the muse that made me do this :P

Fantastic. Absolutely - both the pictures and the story. I especially love the first picture and the text grouped around the fire. (And I giggled quite a lot, too! Thanks! :D )

And nice banner, too. :) (Though Xan, saying: "Maybe not [doomed]"? The world is coming to an end, definitely.)

Damn you all, now I think I'll have to play this romance mod!! I'm already working on Imoen and ToB Edwin, then I've got Tsujatha, Kelsey, Sola, and I'm waiting breathlessly for ToB Nathaniel to come out... haha, thanks for giving me another excuse to keep playing!

Now I just had to go and add "I really do not care about you any more" option to the player-initiated menu, together with the moonblade upgrade. And one more angry option, too. Drop a line on the forum, if you want something else. Or just post another comic here. :)

@twetwe123: And there's a romance with Kivan(http://gibberlings3.net), too. And if you download TUTU, there are three more romances - Ajantis, Coran and Xan, so the possibilities are really endless.

Heh, I didn't expect that but I'm glad if I could inspire an idea or two.

I just never really liked the way taint was handled in the game and I doubt a soulless Bhaalspawn would give damn about anyone at the time.

Thank you people, this is a good practice for me as well. On a side note I'm working on ToB picture, to complete the circle so to speak. We'll see how the romance proceeds there ;)

Wow. Wow. Wow. Great pictures and stuff. I loved Xan, too.

Fin. No more. Absolutely no more. I'll probably sleep through the next challenge.

Black and yellow... I might be mistaken, but let me guess. She has chosen godhood?

This is Saradush(sp?). And I didn't put any color because of the theme and the burning city in the background. Mmm, I don't think it had worked out the way I wanted it to.

But long story short, yeah, she had chosen godhood (or it had chosen her) eventually - just not here.

f not for the ears, this Xan reminds me of an all-time Russian hero: Ivan the Fool(not a monarch, a hero of kids' tales). He really had this simple, broad face, this kind of shirt with embroidery, and exactly this hairstyle. Though this black around the eyes might be a little confusing. :)

Oh, and Orthodoxia: if it is not clear, I enjoyed your ToB submission. Xan looks very aristocratic here, just like he does in Domi's portrait. Loved both.

IMO (heh, I wanted to write EMO :lol: ) was Ivan The Fool the first who wore that haircut :)

And here another entry from me - just a slightly changed the previous one :)
