I'm gonna give this a shot...

Postby neochikara » Wed Oct 26, 2005 1:29 am

Hello everyone! I've been browsing these forums for months, reading and viewing everyone's great works. It's all very impressive and I must say that I've been inspired to do some real public work in this field of fiction. I'm no newbie to the TG niche, but I haven't tried captioning images for this sort of content before. So, I'm putting myself out on a limb here and giving this a shot.

Now, one of the four I'm posting I do have a bit of concern about because of content, but after some personal thought, I figure that, due to the typical saturation of sexuality in today's society, it shouldn't be too bad. Now, if a Moderator has a problem, please let me know and I'll be more than happy to oblige and get rid of it pronto. I do want to keep the friendly, all-age enviroment going around here (yes, I did read the rules--recently!).

Anyway, without further adue, here's my first contributions to this cyber-establishment and a big hello to you people.

(I never intended to save the captions as JPG files, but due to constraints on Photobucket's side, I'm forced to do so. I would've preferred PNG.)

This would sure beat 'Vista.

Magical leggings...?

It's poisoned!

Temptation strikes!

I encourage creative critique and comments. Thanks for viewing my captions, I'll have more when more inspiration hits me (either that or a car).

::edit::

URLs fixed.

Mmm, right. Thank you for the comment. I'll keep that in-mind and strive to do much better next time!

They are all pretty good but the first one does seem a bit lacking.

The first one makes me think of the lengths Microsoft would go to to make their OS seem better/more appealing than it is. XD;;

They were good, overall. And I think (as a mod) that the content, while suggestive, is fine. But don't take my word for it... I could be framing you! :P

The first one was decent though the others were good, at least that's how I thought it was.

Thanks for all the positive comments! Yeah, I did end up feeling that my first one was a bit weak. My initial idea for it was pretty neat, but I don't think I used the right words. I did intend for it to be short and sweet, but meh... Can't win them all, right?

I plan to do more when I find another good source of captionable pictures (already drew from Shuffle! and it's semi-sequel, Tick-Tack!). Look forward to those.

Or sometimes you can use picture references to RP's...I know I've done that.

Hmm... I'm caught between the weirdness of seeing pictures from an anime you know of that involves Mazoku (Shuffle!) and the awesomeness of second person captioneering o_o

Oh man... What a wait, sorry. I've been collecting pictures here and there, planning and scheming to caption them, but I haven't had a whole lot of time till now to actually do them. Meh, two less story ideas swirling around in my head, and two more captions for you to view. Plus, I used Photoshop this time, so the quality is much better, but still reduced a little due to Photobucket's constraints.

Anyway, here they are:

Caution: Falling Objects.

A Second Development

Once again, I think I may be pushing the rules a bit with the second one, but it shouldn't be that bad. I'm probably just worrying too much again. But really, my biggest complaint is that I feel like these captions (especially the second one) require like a short story or something to feel "complete". They're okay like this, but they call out for a little back story, or something. I guess you could call that a side-effect of being an author.

Speaking of which, I'm thinking about submitting my novel here. It is TG, and always has been, but I've never gotten around to it. Maybe I will some time soon.

Anyway, thanks for your comments so far! I look forward to reading some new ones and getting some suggestions and such. Yep, till then, folks.

I like both of them. You tell a good narrative. And the falling objects notion was just plain fun. :) Why don't you write full stories for at least one of them? A good tale is always nice to have around.
