If I have to suffer ANIME JA NAI because someone linked it, then you have to all suffer my remedy as well.

You will all suffer. o_o
Radical avatar change, btw I can't believe you're not Aigis anymore! :O
It's only for a week or so! :|
(Most people don't even remember that when I joined NeoGAF I had a Sakura avatar....)
That's because I wasn't around then!
I do remember you using Marshu as your board name.

Was not around for that but I remember you went by a different name AND had a FEmc avatar.
Nobody would be that foolish. Besides, I keep all my avatars.

Marrshu is dead and buried, except on PSN where I can't change it.
I still have that FEMc avatar, maybe I'll use it some time.
Did you lose a bet? LOL, Kayos is always making those.
I do that sometimes, but I usually use it right away.
I usually get it made, then I'm not happy with it so I don't change it but I keep it just in case. Sometimes it don;t look as good once it's there on GAF as it did in Photoshop.
If you're lucky, you might see my avatar change for a split second before changing back because I don't like it. They say if you see it and make a wish it'll come true.
Same. I'm so fickle when it comes to avatars
I've managed to slow it down to one new avatar per month.

I get it, I just find it really annoying. It made her so predictable to me, and I just found her whole arc to be disappointing. I feel like so much more could have been done with her, especially regarding her friendship with Chie and everything. I feel like a lot of filler banter scenes (not her S.link in particular, but scenes involving everyone) could have been actual development and I would find it her whole thing less simple and bleh.

I would say I keep both of the avatars I've used, but I really didn't keep the first one, since it was only a placeholder until I made a better one given the size dimensions of GAF's avatars versus other sites. Until I made this one I just used an altered size version of my IGN icon. After I made this one I got rid of the placeholder.
Of course not. I'm not silly.
I'm just as big of a Nasuverse fan as I am a Persona fan.
It takes me awhile to pick a new avatar. Even when I see art I like, I have to consider how well it would work cropped to NeoGAF sizes. That's no easy feat, really.
The hardest part, I think, is what the small size does to image quality and clarity. I had to make 8 separate versions of my current avatar until it no longer bothered me with either blurriness or aliasing. To finally solve an aliasing issue on the hand that bothered me (and likely only I would have noticed), I had to point resize (nearest neighbor scaling) it from 400x480 to 4000x4800 and apply a 25-pixel radius Gaussian blur to soften it nicely, and then finally resize it down to 100x120 with Cubic interpolation (Lanczos is sharper, but it ended up too jaggy.)
The aliasing on her collar area still bothers me, but it doesn't really matter from proper viewing distances. If you can see the aliasing on her collar, you are sitting too close to your monitor and are likely damaging your eyes. Consider it a helping guide.

I really wanna get into Fate. I've been told Fate/zero is a good first exposure, so I'm hoping the dub gets a BD release. I've always loved Saber's character design and they cast Kari Wahlgren as her, so it's a double-win already.
Ignore what Sophia will inevitably say (and I know she will object!), but start with Fate/Zero. Never go farther than Fate/Zero. It's all downhill from there!
Just watch Fate/Zero. Don't bother with anything else in the franchise.
If i see a picture that is just too big, I make an attempt to make it look good, usually after about 10 minutes I give up because my photoshop skills suck and I don't want to waste anymore time on it. ;P

Fate/Zero and pretend the rest doesn't exist. Don't watch any other anime, don't even google the Visual Novels.
What is your avatar anyways?

The first, of course.
Actually wait I take that back I liked about 4 of the Kara no Kyoukai movies (KnK 5 being awesome) and those took place in the Type-Moon universe.

Shadow Maya was an art that me and many other P2 fans were looking for, that art was long lost, and it was FINALLY found. Spookies avatar was my first avatar coming here, but a cheap crappy version. To celebrate the release of Soul Hackers, I put on a nice, fresh new one.
Now, Shadow Maya is badass, but Spookies Ghost is just awesome. HALP.

It is better to play Fate/Stay Night for the full story, but seeing as how the first story rotue is god awful compared to the two awesome ones, you can usually just start with Fate/Zero.
Even though you're not suppose to. But whatever. Fate/Zero is totally amazing.
Don't play FSN unless you want to know how King Arthur "knows how to please a man".
The problem is, the full story is awful!
