Description YES! I actually started and finished this in the same day!

Originally, this was a wallpaper, but I never enlarged the background to make it the right size. Whoopsie. The idea for this was thought up when I just pulled out my The Princess Diaries soundtrack for no real reason but I had the song that they play at the ball stuck in my head. "Miracles Happen" by Myra. When I listened to the lyrics, it reminded me of Phantom Planet and the Sam and Danny moment. I hadn't really seen a wallpaper like this (not that I've done some hardcore looking, mind you) so I wanted to make one. Also, this wasn't all the lyrics to the song, but I couldn't fit all the words onto this image.

Background is a screenshot from my windows media player as I listened to "Cumbersome" by Seven Mary Three.

It took about two hours to draw and color Sam and Danny then another two hours to get the lyrics on there correctly. I didn't hunt the lyrics online, I listened and guessed at some parts. That's why they aren't completely accurate.


By the way, it sort of looks like Sam's trying to poke Danny in the eye, but she isn't. I swear! Also, she's on her tip toes to reach him while he's slumped to the side. I really, really love how this drawing turned out.

Their hair turned out rather nicely. That's unusual for me to say most times. Oh, and I actually got the outer glow to work on something!

I know, this isn't drawn in the original cartoony version. But, I'm barely average at drawing that way. Plus, I have this insane crazy of drawing the characters looking more realistic. It's a lot of fun. Oh, and I figure Danny's hair is a bit shaggy even if it doesn't really look so on the cartoon because that's the only explanation for why "Fun Danny" had longer hair. Perhaps Danny normally keeps its well kept. Who knows, but I think this style is sexy, so I'll keep drawing it that way (and I was inspired by Jared Leto because when I first say the video to "From Yesterday" I immediately thought of Danny when I saw Jared's ice blue eyes and black, though dyed in this case, hair. ) Yes, Sam's hair and shirt sleeves are longer, but I like it this way.

Sam Manson and Danny Fenton of Danny Phantom (C) Butch Hartman and propery of nickelodeon. (this is sort of what the scribbling on the side is if you can't read it.)

Drawing by me please don't steal it and say it's yours. If you'd like to use it as wallpaper on your own computer, that's great. Don't know how you'll get it on there seeing as it's a funky size, but more power to you in that regard. Just as long as you don't redistribute it saying you created it. Kay, thanks.

That song. You have it dead on, I swear. I always thought that was a DannyxSam song. And now lookie!

Sorry for that small ramble. The pic looks great. You're just dishing them out recently, all sorts of DP stuffs. It's a breath of fresh air.

As soon as I heard it, I went all wide eyed and was "It's Sam and Danny's song!" Moreso when you consider "Fanning the Flames," "Frightmare," and "Phantom Planet." But, all sorts of elements felt DPish in that song. Plus, I keep forgetting to edit and add that the title was chosen for those of us who are hardcore Danny/Sam shippers. We believed and were rewarded (can't say much else or I'll give spoilers).

Thanks, btw, I am rather proud of this one. I guess because the playing around I did doesn't look downright horrid. In fact, I really love the glowing letters against the bright picture. That and the bright colors contrast Danny and Sam's coloring. And, I enjoy the ramble so feel free whenever you feel an inkling. I'm in a DP high and must create before this little spring of rambunctiousness dries up. I'm glad it's a breath of fresh air because it feels that way. It'd been sooo long since I'd really tried to draw anything DP because I'd been in a slump with them.
