Like Anes said, don't watermark simple renders. It's offensive to the original artist. That aside, your work is pretty impressive considering your...toolbox. Since you don't have Photoshop, I suggest you get paint.net for your computer. To steal a few words, "it's Photoshop without the bloat," and it's free to boot. I personally prefer Photoshop CS6. If you are patient, use the pen tool for rendering. I use a mix of lasso, quick select, and pen tools.
I'll look into that in the future thanks.
To clarify the watermark:
I rushed with making the watermark and was going to put it off of the picture, not on. They are not legal copyright watermarks, but I will use them in the future none the less (again off of the picture not on so they can be removed easily) because to render some photos take's forever to do. I want people to know I did them and not someone else so, yeah it'll be a bit before I can change the watermark on the images. Thanks for the comments in all I really appreciate it (^^)

In the west it's usually some self appointed title made by anime fans. Kinda dumb imo.I'm curious to know why people think the usage of otaku in the west is stupid? I think I use it sometimes because it's just easier to say (kind of like the McDonald's of words; fast and convenient if people know it). If I'm around people that don't understand it, I just say something like I like Japanese culture including anime/I watch Japanese cartoons and read Japanese comics/or just show them if they really care. Idk, just never had a problem with the word's western connotation or at least don't care all that much, but there are people that hate the word and those who use it at all.
I can't speak for others but hearing things like "Otaku", "Loli", "NTR" and other terms in a normal conversation is really grating, mainly because they're misused or not used in the right context. I also just find weeabs in general to be irksome sometimes.
For "Otaku" I know language is something that changes, but as I said earlier, it's usually just self appointed title with little to none of cultural significance that made the word an insult/playful poke at one's self. Even though I hate the word "nerd", it's much fitting.
This helps, thanks. I just use the word sometimes because even though I'm pretty nerdy, I'm specifically into asian/japanese anime/videogames/comics/novels/drama's so in essence the words western definition loosely applies. I don't just throw it around like a 5 year old learning a word for the first time. I think I also used it because I learned it from anime, but your right the context has been lost in translation.
I'm a balance of things so I like certain hobbies, but I also like some "normalcy" in essence like going out to the movies, chilling with friends who talk about every day things, going to the park etc. I think that's where the other stereotype comes from with enjoying a certain hobby. People think just because you know a lot about something or have fun with it, such as cosplaying, that you're some sort of super nerdy person and nothing else matters (or you're a woman that likes this shit and nothing else matters). I can't be one specific thing 24/7.
I think I stopped caring about how terms are used. Even as an insult I never really saw the term nerd or geek as bad even though the definitions for them are negative connotations. Sure if someone's trying to make you feel like shit it's not the best, but I took pride in what I enjoyed. Would rather be something then be boring. It also just helps with trying to explain things to people instead of giving them a long winded explanation. I try to be careful about using terms with other people because I realize not everyone sees them like I do.

Spoiler:
Did that even make sense?
Yup
tl;dr you are an adorable heterosexual girl, who likes to hug and cuddle your gf's in a pg-13 way, who appreciates all forms of love (aka yuri, yaoi, etc), with no intent on having a 3-some regardless of how any future guys feel.
*hugs and cuddles*

Oh, sorry. I mean more for the side that guys expect you to be like that, while girls doesn't except that much that for guys. Thankfully it's lessening of relevance, although it isn't a bad idea to limit your sexual relationships to those you're emotionally attached and stuff, but that should goes for any gender.It depends on the person really. I had a point where I just wanted intimacy without the emotional attachments. I've had a couple one night flings and some fun buddies, but it was all my choice at the time. Knew they weren't going to last, used my judgement to go for guys that were safe to do things with (wasn't just some guy at a sketchy club), used condoms, I accepted that there could be consequences to my actions, etc. I don't encourage women to go through the experiences I went though, but everyone will learn and do things their own way. It is better to be emotionally involved with your partner, but your choice in the end how you want to go about intimate relationships.
At the end of the day you have to be proud of who you are and happy with yourself. I don't regret my past relationships and I have a wonderful guy in my life that accepts me for who I am regardless of my past.

This is coming from a woman's perspective, but still is valid to the discussion.
Most of the guys I've dated or known think the idea of a 3 way (two girls and the guy) would be heaven on earth. It makes them feel like such a king to have to lovely ladies as eye candy for guy to ogle at and then for said guy to bang. I wouldn't take it personally or anything, guys are horn dogs and as long as they don't pressure you into anything you don't want to do then it's all in good fun.
When this could actually become a reality both parties need to talk about the ground rules. Basically how far are things going to go, are toys going to be involved, does the guy want any special services, can the "other" woman get fucked in any way (some groups won't allow the guy to fuck the other women only watch or play; basically no dick in pussy), etc. Both of you need to come to a conclusive decision and then figure out how to make it work. Best to use someone you know well enough, but are not so close that if things didn't work out your not loosing someone valuable in your life. You also should make sure the 3rd party agrees to everything as well. Also make sure everyone gets tested for STDs.
I know my bf loves when I kiss other women (was drunk and my bi friend initiated) and he'd be elated if I showed interest in a 3-some (with another woman mind you lol), but I'm not sexually turned on by women in that way. Thought the kiss was sexy, but again it didn't really turn me on like my man kissing me so he'll just have to keep dreaming lol.

Welp some of the threads in ctfg are having a first page induced maintenance page pop up constantly so no one can see the first page. Then the good ole ninja pages are back where you have to change the url to see various hidden pages of posts.
The first issue is in a lot of the ctfg threads (edit: this issue isn't with every first page thread now that I look, but with some places like the girls club, the cafe, booki's nook, or praetors domus aurea if you click on the thread to go to page 1, you get the maintenance page. Mind you this doesn't happen every time you click either so not sure why it happens when it does). Not sure if other clubs besides the girls club is having that hidden ninja page thing again, but it's getting up there for the club so any help in resolving these issues would be very much appreciated.

T-Thanks a lot for the welcome!@Misaki: Well, I'm more for RPGs actually, but I like any genre (except horror!), I've played a varied amount of titles anyway. Oh, I've seen the girls' club, too, but I can't access! (The 502 error pop ups for that thread...)
Don't go to the first page of the site and you may have to tweak the page number at the top of the url tag (aka if the page says 712 you may need to make it 713 or 714.... it's a stupid bug the site has). I'll post a msg on the feedback page to let them know that this is happening again.
Damn, another girl that dislikes horror lol. But I saw some of your favorite titles up above so you have good taste none the less and always nice to see more girl gamers (^^)

More a cultural tradition of "staying pure and virgin before marrying" stuff that never applied that hard for boys than anything else, I guess.Yeah..... I don't think that is something I've ever even thought about since that image would be such a contradiction.... was not the type of woman that wanted to wait till marriage because I was too curious/horny and I was nervous that if my partner and I weren't on the same wavelength for intimacy (you learn a lot about them in the bedroom) then it'd be a deal-breaker for me.
I don't think you're answer is bad, but I wouldn't apply this to all women. You basically don't want to come off as a slut or a pervert to guys initially or at the very least some guys may get the wrong impression from you reading about a five 5 to 1 girl gangbang. When I say that fantasy doesn't always equal what you are/want in reality means sometimes you need to keep certain things such as fetish genre's to yourself. When girls openly say, "yes I like NTR a lot!" and nothing else, guys look at that and think "this girl is such a pervert, what if...". Wrong for guys to do that, but it only takes one for this to happen so it's best to be careful.
Not all guys care if you are a virgin or not, but be aware that others may and will. I know whenever the subject of "how many before me?" would come up, I'd say a couple or that talking it's not important to dig up the past and change it. Mind you I haven't been with that many men, but I try to refrain from giving much on that subject to guys (though I never thought I'd be dating my current bf so he knows my past and how many, whoops lol). You can lie completely if you want to, but to me you need to be somewhat truthful with your information and don't be afraid to get tested with every partner. Not everyone is truthful when they say that they are a virgin and have never slept with anyone, because you can even get STDs from acts such as oral.

To me it feels like society has mixed views on the word otaku and it's culture. From the southern part of the US so just my personal perspective from there and such.
Otaku generally means to have an obsession of fascination over something, but in other countries (even in japan nowadays) this refers specifically a fascination based around Japanese videogames, anime, manga, light novels, visual novels, and any memorabilia that goes along with it. You wear clothing to support the obsession, talk a certain way, hang out with others that share the obsession, go to events based around it etc. You begin to take pride in your love of the culture and you feel like you found a group of acceptance and indifference (unless you differ in your tastes of genre's or moe women lol).
Those who know nothing about the otaku culture look at it through different eyes. Some people see it as being a certain type of nerd or geek and can be no big deal. Other’s see it as being different and find it odd. I know some people would either react normally to my obsession or would think I was some sort of freak. Basically anything that is considered “different” can be taken this way so you’d have to do the statics yourself to see if people see this as a good or bad thing. Most people in my opinion usually think it’s odd, but don’t care if they’re not into it. They just don’t want it rubbed in their faces because if you didn’t understand something or care to hear about it all the time, it would get annoying.
The only issues with being an otaku is the stereotypes that are involved. Basically if you see the debates about lolicon/hentai involving younger women then you catch my drift. Even just having young girls in general anime/manga can disturb some people. I know someone asked me once “so, you like have a thing for 10 year olds or something?” Or even as a women I’m asked if I like yaoi more often then not. There’s also an image that people have in their heads about how otaku’s look and act; greasy hair, fat, nerdy, socially anxious/reserved, no friends except ones in the culture that apparently look just like them. Just because we love something doesn’t mean that all of the stereotypes are fact.
Even as a woman there is this image that people have in relation to the otaku. Either you are frumpy and nerdy (basically the female equivalent of how I described the male otaku) or they're really hot nerdy girls. The yaoi thing is again the other iconic stereotype and it's a little annoying sometimes since not every girl is obsessed with yaoi. I think the only issue with being a woman and liking this type of thing is when guys get creepy. They think that the female otaku is some sort of holy grail that they have to be near/claim. There's a difference between being sociable/flirting and trying too hard. Society also has it's own views as well. Basically some people ask why a woman would be into such things or do we really like what we like. Otaku is more catered to the male audience even though there are female based genre's (aka Yaoi and otome), but that doesn't mean that women can't enjoy them as well. I think it's just odd to me that women otaku are seen as rare elusive creatures when I just want to feel like a normal person to people; honestly though it's not that bad, just giving some personal perspective of things I've experienced over the years lol.
To me an otaku is someone who is a specific kind of nerd as I defined up above. Sometimes I’ll use the term to describe my obsession or I’ll just say that I like Japanese culture/comics/etc. I just try to make it easier for people to understand if they’re getting to know me and they care. Other then that I see no shame in enjoying what I like and I don’t see otaku as a bad thing. It may have had a negative connotation in the past and people can use it with ill context in mind, but any word can be turned into something nasty if used in such a way. I just am who I am and people can either like it or move on.

I have no idea what you are talking about...Let's plays; someone plays a game and may narrate it. They may even let their audience suggest ideas, if the game allows it.
They're all over YouTube, amazed you don't know about them.
I know I've watched Let's Plays on youtube, but Something Awful I've never heard about so I think that's where the confusion is coming from (get the jist of it after looking it up, but still don't really care).
Honestly I don't really have an opinion which is better. Even if I did have an opinion, it'd be biased since I don't know much about that one site. All I do is watch gameplay for the heck of it via youtube or twitch because it's enjoyable for me.

Welcome back, Misaki~Yo :3
I can live now that I have food ;w;
You watching anime of the current anime season lineup?
still pondering if following Log Horizon or wai till its full and binge it
For now it's slow to start up but also hinting at some interesting future events so my advice would be to wait and binge. You're not missing anything too special as of yet.
well, S1 ended with that weird Mage Cliffhanger. also the 1st season started kinda slow but got pretty good for an anime thats mostly about politics
I'd say if you have the time watch it. I enjoyed the series a lot and am liking the second season pretty well so far (only 2 episodes as of now). It looks like things will get interesting because so many things are explored and the whole "reincarnation" of a players life will be delved into moreso.
