Alright, for one you've brought more story to your captions. Your original ones are almost one liners. These new ones are better because they tell a fuller story.

Secondly the contrast of the text color to the background color is far improved in your new ones. The "Dairy" piece is a no-no of text color and font. Though your font size doesn't have to be as huge as they are in some, and I prefer to put my caption text under the image, as the format of text fits easier there. If we were Japanese speakers, writing it vertically would work better but we're not so...

As far as content goes, you're using more than MtF which is applaudable and you're not relying on the same old story and are trying to use varied forms of change and varied intentions.

Much improved.

If I were a teacher scoring you, your original captions would earn a C, but your new ones would earn a B- at the lowest, B+ at the highest. A little more experimentation can take you further.

WOW! Quite impressive. Yeah, the new ones are really incredible and thank you for having both for comparison. I'd say A- here, particularly for the one with the flute, that was really beautiful ^_^

The idea for the newer caption to the Flute pic came from a discusion with Akemi. She personally thinks females I superiour, I don't. I think we're both equal.

At Gaia, I've spent some time with CD's and so making some CD captions instead of just transformation ones seem to fit my current mood.

The two animal to human ones just seemed to fit pictures, and Musa's favorite is something I've been wanting to do since I saw that picture.

My feelings on females mostly stem from genetics and genetics in relation to spirituality more than Valerie Solanas kinda stuff, for the record ^^;

*shrugs* I still think guys and girls are equal, genetically, spiritually, and physiologically. Don't know what Valerie Solanas is though.

The only thing all agree with is girls have better taste. I'm told they taste like chicken and guys taste like three day old gym socks. Mind you this is second hand information. I've never eaten either girls or guys.

My inner Nekomata knows more about the flavor of flesh than I'd care to disclose >_>

I think "Birthday Wish" is one of your best. It's really cute and the story fits the caption very well.

On another note, I think your Void one is neat because that almost perfectly reflects what I feel the afterlife represents (the more disciplined a mind, the better the chance to create a pleasant infinity instead of a chaotic and violent one that has brimstone smell as a custom option)

*shrugs* The Void series doesn't really have anything to do with the afterlife. Just a few people some how get trapped in a void and the form they take there is what ever think of strongest. In my case it's a Kitsune, in this case it's school girls in gym clothes.

That's a pretty neat concept. You should write it.
