I so totally love you for this. I've been looking for a lovely simple tut for colouring for AGES! Love the GA ones you did, much better than the ones I came up with but:


:) Meming, you're my goddess or colouring!

That turned out so gorgeous!!! I love the colours it brought out! I am so jealous that I wont see the ep till February!

I am glad it worked out so well! I thought this tut was a total bust!

No way! I've been sitting here playing with those really easy steps for like an hour.

Im so sorry if you didn't know about Sara.. I had a complete concentration lapse and forgot that you were waiting... I can't do that - I was downloading as soon as it was available!! Crazy ;) Channel Seven should get it's butt into gear and put it on early ;)
Kate[info]pureskies on August 25th, 2006 12:48 pm (UTC)
oh that is fine! Don't worry about it! I have already seen heaps of pictures and a pic of the note on the crane and everything. I don't really mind! It doesnt really give that much away! I'm sure it'll get much harder when it gets into the season coz i'm sure any icons or whatever I see will give a lot away. Oh well, it doesnt really matter...

DAMN CHANNEL SEVEN!!! GRRRR i wish they would put it on early!!!

Ah, good :)

Why don't you download?? Or at least stream?? There's a legal stream available for Australian residents if you wanted it...
Kate[info]pureskies on August 25th, 2006 01:16 pm (UTC)
yeh i know i could download it if i wanted, i just like to wait for it to be on the 'big screen' as it were, and to watch it with my friends, you know?

I dunno, that is just my preference! I have been itching to download all week but i wont. I'll be strong. lol!

Wow. You have WAY more self control than me!!!
Kate[info]pureskies on August 26th, 2006 04:02 am (UTC)
lol. sometimes i wish i didnt have self control!
bella[info]tearcreek on August 26th, 2006 10:29 am (UTC)
lol!!!

I just finished watching Manhunt with my friend on my laptop, so you can watch it with friends if you want to gather them around a computer :D That's what I did all of last season! (And this one) because I watched it way before most eps aired in Aus..
Kate[info]pureskies on August 26th, 2006 10:34 am (UTC)
that sounds like so much fun!!!!
