Like the new theme? I went on and on on my last post about the new FMA artbook I got and how Ed’s all older(18 years old now) and stuff so I thought it appropriate to make a theme based on it. I’m very proud of the wallpaper in the background since I made it^_^ I scanned the image of Ed and Al there and re-painted over them to make them all bright and clean looking and then I scanned the forest image from another artbook I owned and put them in it instead. I think it came out really well and I uploaded a different wallpaper that I made and cleaned from the artbook and I’ll have a link for that at the bottom of the post. I think cleaning the scanned images is the hardest part. One doesn’t realize how dirty images look prior to being spiffed up.

Anywho, I got the job at Barnes and Noble!! I got offered a full-time position too so more $$=Elves is happy. And they put me in Zone 2 which is awesome because you know what’s in Zone 2? MANGAS! And Fantasy books too! Whee! I have a feeling I could blow my whole pay check there if I wanted but I’ll hold myself back. We get 30% off all merchandise and 50% of the café and we get 20% off at GameStop since it’s partially owned by B&N! Plus, we’re allowed to take-out hard cover books for free and bring them back in 14 days…it’s like a library! And during breaks, we’re allowed to bring any book or magazine into the backroom to read.
Oh, and I FINALLY got internet in my apartment! Only took…let’s see…almost a month and a 1/2? Verizon sure took its sweet ass pimp time but they’re giving me lots of free service since they screwed me over so much. I’m still on dial-up though but it’s actually pretty fast. Well, fast for dial-up…which isn’t saying much but it’s better then nothing. DSL should be available to me by Feb.20th but I’m not taking their word for it>_<

Here’s the wallpaper I just uploaded. I actually had to scan this in pieces and clean it up A LOT. I think I did well though so no seams can be seen. Anywho, just click the image if you want to download it^_^ It took me about 3 hours to do:
