Fanart day!


Wow. I'm doing an Idle Minds update...this is nuts...



This is sort of a comic/fanart thing. It's not really that funny, so I don't know if I can
call it a comic. It's more a piece of fanart with a comical twist, I'd say. You know, it's
Sam posing for a picture, with Joel giving Sam the ever-present-among-third-graders bunny ears
thing. (calling Joel a third grader was not the intent here...)
And I'm sorry that the art sucks compared to Sam's normal stuff. I can think of ideas
much better than I can actually produce them...I can look at something that's already drawn
and draw something like that pretty well, but when I start to do stuff on my own it starts
to fall apart a bit. ^^;;



Yeah, this is Mirai Matt updating here. I'm an online friend (or acquantance, depending
on the person...former enemy of one of them...but that's a long story that doesn't need to
be told here...) of everyone who is and has ever
been in Idle Minds. We all met in the newsgroup alt.fan.dragonball, if I'm not mistaken.
(Now I'm the only one still there, everyone else left...well, Joel pops in once every other month, but...)
So when Idle Minds first started, I was somewhat mad and somewhat jealous...I mean, here was
this online comic with five of these people who I sorta knew, and they made a comic, and none
of them had told me at all!



And then I started to read the comic. At first it was freaky, seeing all of them in it.
But after a while, I started to realize that it was a good comic. So I read it more often.
I still wished I was part of it, still wished I was part of the group. And that's how it
went for a long time, up until now.



In a way, it's sort of ironic, as I went completely full-circle. At first I hated Idle Minds
and its existence, and now I think it's great, and I'm contributing to it. It just goes
to show you that you shouldn't give up on something too early; you shouldn't write something
off before you really understand. If I had, who knows what I would've been doing now? Who
knows what friends I wouldn't have today?



Bet you thought the guest guy would forget the Obligatory Music Pimpage, didn't you? :

Well, as you can guess, I didn't! Currently, I'm listening to "It Doesn't Matter" from
Sonic Adventure. I think it's a great song, but that may be just because I've played
the game. So in (what I think is) an Idle Minds first, we have dual Pimpage! First, play
Sonic Adventure, then get some of the music from it. That game alone justified my purchase
of a Dreamcast, it was pure fun. And the music from it is excellent. It helps the mood in a
way that is executed so perfectly only in the great games of Nintendo and Capcom. (please,
nobody flame me for my videogame preferences...)



Well, I figure it's about time to wrap this up now...I've rambled on long enough, heh.
I hope nobody minds that this is sorta long...^^;;
