I don't know where to put this if it's in a wrong category>.>

There's a very annoying story while making this and here goes:

One fateful day, I decided to look for scans to color. Being an Air Gear fan, of course I went to look at AG (well not the first choice though). I wanted to do something Yu Yu Hakusho since it was like... FOREVER since the last time I did one. But then again none of the scans interested me so my eyes fell upon the Agito scan. It looked pretty easy to color, in fact it was, if it wasn't for the series of unfortunate events that happened while I was trying to complete the damn thing.

I started GIMP 2.4.5. Excited to start work, I poured myself a glass of water and placed it on the computer table so I don't have to go back and forth to get water to drink. My computer had, like, 128 RAM, so it was damn slow. It took GIMP 15 minutes to start. Finally the application was opened. One last thing to do: load up all the brushes' previews. Another half an hour was wasted waiting for this. Finally, I started coloring.

Upon finishing the clothes and the orange straps...... GIMP closed itself. I was like "O.O;;" I had to start all over again. The above activities repeated itself. I saved this time. I was half way through the hair, when it closed again. "WTF?!" I started GIMP again and continued with the saved file, I finished, GOD BLESS ME! I saved the file to jpg format, and then started creating a new bg as seen above *points* Half way through editing, adding more brushes, stroking blahblahblah, it closed. "WTF?! MY HOURS OF WORK!" Yes indeed, I was very angry at that time as 4 hours have passed. I was supposed to finish it in 1 hour >.<

I repeated the techniques I used to do the bg and saved this time. I removed the bg from the scan coloring and then pasted it on, looked pretty good. Saved again, just in case. And then, sure enough, the darn thing closed again. THANK GOD I SAVED! I was determined to finish it right there right now so I started GIMP again. FINALLY, AND I MEAN FINALLY! I added the text and finishing touches and it was completed, saved it in .jpg format and uploaded.

By then, 6 hours was fucking wasted
