I will try that with as many as i can. My only problem with that will be again - how severely text heavy the scenes are - Since they're explanatory flashbacks, and how many I'll need to do. I'm still out looking. Also thank you for the idea on trying to do something like falling leaves if possible. I might try that if i can ^^ (though i think just getting this made might be all i'm capable of O.o)

My only AMV to date on here, should show how far i have to go to be capable of making this any good -_-

But i shall try my best. After all, i want to make this as good as i can, and if that doesn't turn out so good... I'll cry but so be it ^^; I'm trying.

I thank each and every suggestion made so far though. they most likely will all help in their own ways.

And to edit in a comment about what JaddziaDax suggested... i only have Paint, and i'm barely passable with much work with it >.> So it'll be uphill going but hopefully worth it ^o^

Though Photoshop would definitely give less of a headache in this scenario.

I finally found some raws, and am currently teaching myself how to clean some of them ^^; Since i can't re-draw them exactly, i'm working on a few now to try and make at least a little less chaotic with the text.

Thank You all of you who've helped me ^ ^ Again - i probably can't thank you all enough >< A bad habit of mine ^o^ (or rather not bad- but potentially obnoxious; i just tend to thank people alot ... and often ^ ^;)

Watched that amv Wonders at your feet. Impressive.

I can see how it might "mess things up" at an amv contest though.

But here's something to wow the readers.

The man does all of his work in crayon, something you would think was preposterous.

I think the medium used, needs only be mastered by the artist, to be considered a good choice.

Didn't care for the tune of the amv, but was surprised at how well the manga was used.

The GIMP is free (as in, both speech and beer) and should allow more flexibility for cleaning than Paint would.
