    Lol, alright.
    I'm the same way; I get along better with teachers than students.
    A lot of students are immature, so it was difficult for me to enjoy their company, but I have a few good friends. But I was totally a Teacher's Pet all the time. //laughs

    Aww...You should try to finish them. ^^
    Shes my favorite teacher, she just thinks I'm a bit emotional. I've told her about video games and stuff I've cried over, and she's just like "Haha, You wimp XDD". I tend to be friends with teachers more than kids my age. XDDD She loved Batman so i talked to her...XD And befriended her.

    Bwahaha, Like a boss.XD

    I've read many, but not all-
    and your teacher fails. D;
    I would've said, "Only emotionally powerful and significant people are into HP and can cry over it. Now, what's the answer to question #2? And grade my homework already." //like a boss

    Haha, I...noticed.XD Please tell me you've read all the books?
    The ending makes me sob like a small child.XD It was so great but so sad. I remember telling my teacher about it, and she laughed and called me a wimp. XD I'm glad I'm not the only one who gets upset by it.

    Sweet! I shall use it!

    Hahaha, lol, thank you. Yeah, I'm a big HP fan too, so the end of HP makes me feel all emotional. I'm totally in denial about Snape's fate in HP though, if you couldn't tell already. //laughs

    And sure, feel free to use it. I posted the full size version of the Snape wallpaper here too.

    Haha, I used to read HP, but after the 5th book I just wasn't into it any more... it's pretty tiresome to catch up to it now lol eh, I don't know, I don't mind HP, I've watched the last movie, but since I've missed so much it took me a while to catch up... I'm not too big into reading long books really unless it catches my attention. They're not bad series though :P go ahead and convert me, I want to see what happens haha.

    @SolemnSerpent:

    Yeah, I almost didn't see HP 7 part 1 cause I knew Dobby was gonna die. And then towards the end (in the movie) Dobby's like, "Dobby will always be here for Harry Potter" And I was like, "NO! WHY did you have to say that?"

    I liked Ginny more and more as the series went on. At first, she is depicted as an idiotic young girl with a painful (to her and to readers) crush on Harry Potter, but you see her develop a charater. She's strong, capable, and funny. Of course, when it comes to humor, no one tops Fred and George. For the record, in my mind, Fred did NOT die. I deny it. He was unconscious for a while, that's all. HP isn't HP without the Weasley twins.

    Snape dying almost made me cry. Seeing the whole thing from his perspective in the Pensieve...I mean, I make jokes about how Snape's cranky because of his lack of a sex life (haha) but it's much deeper than that.

    And Luna's just awesome. I think I'll go up to someone with my Luna Quibbler glassses and tell them their head is full of Nargles.

    Also, I SAW THE ACTUAL KNIFE THAT KILLED DOBBY! And then I kinda did cry. I went to that HP exhibit and it showed some of the movie props, and Bellatrix's dagger was there...

    How can people not like Harry Potter? I've been obsessing over it since I was six. Even then I knew it was pure awesomeness.

    Wow, thank you! <3

    And you're not a HP fan? ISHALLCOVERTYOU I had a friend who kept away from HP for over 7 years, cause the fandom was too big and time-consuming. Then, I spent like- 20 minutes gushing and talking about HP; sharing screenshots, clips, and artwork-

    she now completely hates me, because that's all it took for me to get her back into the fandom full force. //dies laughing

    I'm almost positive that if you look in the dictionary at the term, "double agent" Severus's picture has to pop up. He practically invented the term, he was so perfect with his roles. Still, I wish he didn't die. ;___; I'm so hesitant to watch the new movies, cause I don't feel like leaving the theater while crying fountains. //laughs

    I've always kinda, almost, disliked Ginny. I don't know why. It's just... gah. I couldn't bring myself to like her. I agree however, Luna is awesome. She's always so... in a dream? It looks like? Like, if her underwent Inception, her dream world with be the most badass/strange thing anyone has ever seen.

    Thank you. :)

    I'm working on the purple-ish spots right now; just a few more tweaks and details and I'll post it.

    And yes, there was so much death- Witches and Wizards were dropping like broom-less Quidditch players. ;__; And I just refuse to admit that Severus died; it's like, "WHY GOD WHY. TAKE GINNY INSTEAD." //sobs //horribleperson

    Awesome. I love Harry Potter. I've been obsessed with it since I was six. And Snape is one of the greatest characters, because his story is such a long, deep one and because of his attitude and character. The way he is a double agent against both sides was awesome, and the final result enhanced the message Dumbledore was trying to say--love beats Voldemort. Every time. My favorite characters are Ginny Weasley and Luna Lovegood. I knew Ginny was going to end up with Harry from the second book.

    I think the first one is good as is; I've never been a fan of walls with ghosting but I really like how you pulled it off here. There is one thing to consider, though: most people have icons on the left, so Snape would be covered up.

    As for the second one, I'm waiting for you to submit it so I can use it :3 Though I think you should make the non-red spots more brown, they look almost purple for me.

    It's been a while since I read the 7th book, but I remember thinking "WTF" at the whole deathfest thing. Highest death toll of all the books I've ever read, war/battle themed ones aside.

    For the second wall, I think you could try smudging using some small brushes. then you'd kinda get this sort of outcome. Only the BG though. Then sharpen it a little :3 that's my idea hah...ha.
