hm normally when I blend the markers I color the paper and let that dry for a little bit before adding the next color.
If the marker gets the color the another, I clean it off by scribing on a clean sheet of paper.The marker should still work fine unless you use it a lot.

Thank you so much for taking time to read this! XD

Sai is a painting program that is really easy to use, it's similar to Photoshop, but Sai doesn't lag and it's really simple.

I like to use cryola markers alot, they can blend really well.

for your image to be in the center, just highlight :image: and then go the face that looks like this: and under that there is a bunch of lines, when you put your mouse over that, it should say center, just click that and it should center your image when you post.
Hope that helps.

@MangaKid:

it is, it's been 1 year and I'm still not use to it! XD

@toyotami kun:

Lol yes!
Yeah, I would think! 5am is way too early! O_O

@MangaKid:

lol they pick on him to much, but he's funny! XD
XD a job that drives me crazy by making me get up so early! XD

@toyotami kun:

Lol yeah, and everyone asked him "Who are you?" I'm laughing right now xD You're making me excited to see your future fan art!!!
Thanks! I haven't read your comment yet, but I will and I'll show my sisters too^^
Thats so good!! Enjoy your sleep ^_^
>_< Aw man! Working weekends would be hard.. But to look at it in a good way, at least you have a job!

@MangaKid:

lol that was so funny! I didn't even know it was him at first!!! XD he looked so much better with his blonde hair! plus it fits him perfectly! I think Sunohara might be the first one I draw! XD
I just saw the pictures! they were really cute! your sisters are really good with clay!
yup I get to sleep in, I get so happy! XD but I'll be working weekends soon! T_T sometime in febuary I think.

@toyotami kun:

Lol I agree! And remember when he had to change his hair back to black? lol! I think I like his blond hair!
I can't wait for your Clannad fan art^^

Hehe! I posted it right now, with a couple other clay pictures :D
Yeah, I understand! Tomorrow is Saturday so do you get to sleep in?

@MangaKid:

lol he just makes everything better! XD no this won't be my first fan art, I have done some, but not to many. Maybe this will be the forst one I'll take my time on though!

aw it wasn't a bunny?!! lol I'll just have to wait then! XD
I'd rather just stay home and draw too! I don't like getting up so early to go to work! T_T

@toyotami kun:

HAHA! Totally xD I laugh every time Sunohara even appears on the screen xD OOO I can't wait too! It'll be one of your first fan arts eh? Thats so awesome!! :D

Ah! Its not as complicated as a bunny... way simpler. Actually its so simple that I'd probably be able to make it even though I don't like clay xD I'll post it today!

Yeah!! I'm trying to manage my time better these days as I have so much to do... If I could, I'd draw all day x3

@MangaKid:

I like Sunohara because he's an idiot! I like Tomoya because he's really down to earth and goes helping everyone even though he thinks he's bad. I'm looking forward to doing fanart soon, there's this one guy I'm really lookking forward to drawing because he's just so awesome! XD

hm cute? Oh is it a bunny?!! XD jk I'll wait then!

lol that happens all the tiime when I'm drawing, I always think: "Eh?!! why so fast? man I have to go to bed now, dang!" XD

@toyotami kun:

LOL I know, they are so awesome! But I like Tomoya... then Sunohara. I agree, characters are all really nice^^
I'm looking forward to your fan arts! I bet you'll have lots of fun. I found that it helped me practice on getting a better image in my mind before I drew it.

Lol I can't wait to show you, but yep its a secret till tomorrow! Only don't expect a big detailed clay character or anything... they are the simplest things but super cute (big clue!) xD
Yeah, I know how that feels =_= I like my job though, but I have been stuck in those situations where time just won't go fast when we want it to! xP
Have you ever sat down to draw and then looked at the time and its passed so fast? xD
I like the later hour also but when it goes an hour ahead, its bothersome!

@MangaKid:

ugh! I can't choose between Sunohara or Nagisa's dad! I really like them both since they are so hilarious!!!! XD But I really like all the characters, it's hard! I wanted to draw fanart after I watched it but because I had that one rule of not doing fanarts, I never did, but I'm breaking that rule this year anyways! XD

oh what is it?!! I'm curious!!! XD But it's going to be a secret isn't it?!! XD

lol I think time flies by fast in the afternoon here at home, but at work it goes by so slowy it kills me because I just want to go home! XD
I don't mind daylight saving, I like it when it's an hour late, I hate it when we loose an hour because then I feel like time goes by faster! My mom does the same thing and she ends up confuseing me! XD

@toyotami kun:

Yes, I agree! Who is your most favourite Clannad character by the way? Oh it would be awesome to see you draw a Clannad fan art! After watching it, I feel like drawing it too x3
Oh my sister made something out of clay that you might like! I'll post it on the Artist Cubby probably tomorrow! just for fun^^
Yeah, same here. I always end up staying up late whenever I can. But time flies so fast, its hard to stay on top of it xP One thing that really gets me is the Daylights savings time change. My mom goes around saying 'Its not really that time, it actually would be an hour earlier/later!' It makes me feel like I'm actually losing time, and my schedule gets all wacky xD

@MangaKid:

lol Clannad made my sister and me cry so much too!!! I really love Clannad, I agree it's a really beautiful story and the animation is just breath taking! I think it's a must watch! I really should draw fan art of it sometime! XD

When I don't have to work I like to stay up, the latest will be 1am , but most of the time I get sleepy around 11pm. I have a bad habbit of sleeping late and that's not good because I have to get up in the morning!!! XD

At least you get to sleep in a little!

@toyotami kun:

Well yesterday I stayed up way too late. My parents were up on the laptop so I couldn't fall asleep myself... I watched Clannad till midnight!!! AND I CRIED SO HARD AT ONE POINT! I thought my parents would hear me so I had to stop Dx Its such a sad beautiful story. Thankyou forever for recommending it to me! I've already told another Otaku about it and she's watching it now :D
I seem to just stay up too late. I should get into a better schedule like you!

@snow fox:

really?!! I discovered this site in 2005 a little before it got it's new design, back then I just found it for fancomic! XD
Yeah I noticed that the there are a lot of younger people here, a lot of the older ones are on DA. XD

@toyotami kun:

That's understandable, as the main population of this site is indeed much younger. There are some tried and true oldies (like me, lol) on this site, particularly the people who have been here since 2003 and before this was even an anime site. It started out as a video game site! I think I found it by looking for pokemon stuff. Then it picked up some anime content, and I stayed to read more on Dragon Ball Z, etc. And now look where we are!

@snow fox:

lol looks like there are a couple of people older then me here! XD I thought I was the oldest! XD

Hah, no - you're not the oldest on this site. I'll be turning 25 a few months from now... hah.

@MangaKid:

at least you get to sleep in a little longer, well a lot longer then me! XD You are lucky too! I wish my job started at 9 or something, but I have to be there at 6 in the morning! I'm lucky it's close by at least!

@toyotami kun:

Ack thats really early! Dx I actually ended up sleeping in til 10am this morning =_= I like getting up early, but I just can't sometimes. It doesn't help that I don't work till 12pm so I'm not pressured to get out of bed xD Talk to you later!

@MangaKid:

lol it's 10:26 for me so I have to go to bed now! I have to get up at 5 in the morning to get ready for work! XD talk to you tomorrow!

@toyotami kun:

Aha! Right now, I'm just getting sleepy too so I'll have to go soon Dx Lol I've been having so much fun and then I look at the time and its already 11pm! xD

@MangaKid:

lol okay! that's good then! XD I think I;m just sleepy then! XD

@toyotami kun:

Ok great! And no your didn't confuse me at all!! I actually just went and fixed all the images and videos I've posted so that they are in the center! its perfect, thankyou for helping me out! <3

@MangaKid:

I ended up like the picture smaller so it's okay! I hope I didn't confuse with the center thing, I just re-read it and confused myself! XD

@toyotami kun:

Oh no not at all!! Thats totally up to you, my friend^^
Ah thats good! I'm happy about that, cuz I really didn't want you to make it small if you really didn't want to :D It looks great! Lol my avatar pic is getting old I think... XD
Thankyou so much!! That helps me a lot :D *hugs*

@MangaKid:

lol that would be nice, but this little bunny is for this club's eyes only! XD I like to keep certain things for only certain places, I hope you don't mind!

It's okay, I actually like it better small! it looks nicer! and it would be better too.

oh to center the image? you know the tool bar above the area where we are commenting, where all th faces are under this face: there is this thing that's a bunch of lines and when you put your mouse over it, it says "center" . just highlight what you want to center and then click that. it should center what you highlighted.

@toyotami kun:

Ah you should post it in your portfolio so everyone on theO can see it too xD I feel bad for getting you to re-size it since you worked so hard on it!! Dx It is okay if you'd like it bigger!!! I think its so adorable!!!!!

edit: ok, how are you able to post your avatar in the middle of your page? I don't know how to do that >_<

@MangaKid:

Thank You! I spend a lot of time on this little thing! XD

@toyotami kun:

No no! Don't be sorry, its fine :D

@toyotami kun:

No problem at all!! Its totally fine! Thankyou though^^ I really love how cute your avatar is x3

@littlepooch:

lol for me it's the opposite, everyone's much younger! XD Thank You, It's a pleasure to meet you too!

Oh if you check some of the manga listed there, go ahead and let me know so I can give you the proper names so it'll be easier to find. Some of them I wrote the english name cause I forgot the japanese name...XD

@MangaKid:

okay I fixed the size! sorry again!

@MangaKid:

whoops sorry, Sure I'll resize it right now! I was thinking about asking about the size, but it slipped my mind! Sorry!!!

Oh gee, everyone here is so much older than me! But that's a good thing :D I hope I can learn a lot for everyone!

And I love your bunny <3 So cuteeee! The pattern for the ribbons I like a lot. It's lovely to meet you too, Toya~

Oooo, I haven't heard of very many of the animes/mangas on your list, but I shall check them out! I'm always looking for new things to read or watch. :)

YAY! Amazing profile, Toya! :D I really love it, its so wonderful and your avatar is such a cutie!! Everything looks perfect^^ Just one thing, could you resize your bunny to around 200x200 so its a bit smaller? Lol we're overloaded with her cuteness xD If not, its totally fine!
I really love this! I'll go link it to our intro^^ Thankyou so much!!

@IyamiNaHamusutaa:

Oh Thank You! XD I just noticed that everyone was younger then me, so I thought I might be the oldest! XD
