Last post concerning number18's site: Hey number18!!! Check your PM's for this forum.

number18 · Post by **number18** » Sun Apr 25, 2004 11:03 pm

Thanks for the info fellas. I just checked my site too and saw your message, Dayspring...immediately realizing that after I took the live-action 18 question out of my guestbook, I had failed to remove it from the form. Fixed that and added it back.

Thanks for the extra proof on Videl, too. I think I'm just gonna leave the answer there as is on the site though. Really...#18 is fighting off against two super saiyans at once, and Videl is getting pounded by a single majin freakazoid. She's a tough female with admirable fighting prowess, but she's not stronger. Some crazy Videl fans must've started that whole thing.

Back to the first appearance thing. I wonder if it's more appropriate to put the first physical appearance or the first mention. Hmm......

Dayspring, I will respond to your PM at length tomorrow. ^_^

Blah. Easy fun character. Yes, I realize that the Japanese still says Raditz's name. Waiting on the image from Julian.

Wow, that's lookin pretty sharp, what with the info AND analysis.

I dunno if this is intentional, but you have the intended pun listed as "Kewi". Perhaps you meant Kiwi?

Anyway, not too shabby!

Whoops... yeah, that got changed in a "Find and Replace" of all "kiwi" in the writing. My bad

. Fixed, thanks!

Also, if anyone knows who voiced him in the Japanese version, it'd be appreciated.

And for those who will ask... the main image on the profile page... that's from a pan shot... three different images composited together for the full body shot... blurred in the appropriate places... then cut out from the background... with a new black border added around the entire character... whee!

That's sick. I've always wanted a full image of 18 from the Trunks special, when she's stepping on his sword. I'm sure there's one out there somewhere. But yeah, that's hardcore.

Gimme a few minutes. Consider it done. How ironic, I just fired up the scanner and Photoshop so I could make more scans for ya.

Kouji Totani, apparently.

's no problem. Ripping the scene I needed from the TV special DVD only took a minute, and making the image was a snap. Plus, I enjoy taking DBZ pictures of people other than Trunks.

I've scanned a few more images (3 of them from the daizenshuu), as well as made the 18 pan image from the TV special. I have all the new pics zipped up in a new zip file that I just uploaded. You can download the whole package here:

Oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy!
Man! I must make you some sort of cosplayish item in gratitude. That pic of 18 from the Trunks special looks sweet. It's like...perfect for the bio page.

Ohohohohoho, don't tempt me.

Ever since AnimeNEXT I've been *slightly* contemplating dressing up in costume for a con. I wanna do something One Piece-ish, since doing something like Naruto is being so overdone right now. Since Ginny's cosplaying as Nami, I wouldn't wanna be her, so I thought about maybe doing Vivi, since her outfit is really easy (exect for the long blue hair that's wavvy and in a ponytail).

But yeah... if I decide to go with anything, I would love the help, since I've never done this before. ^^;; (plus, Mike wants me to dress up as a FFX/X-2 girl... we'll see if that ever happens.

)

EDIT: OK, I stand corrected. I did dress up once, and it was as Trunks for Halloween when I was 17 or so. I guess it doesn't count, since I don't think I left the house in the outfit, let alone go to a con in it.

Actually, what would be really cute, since I'm gonna do Bellemere, is if you were Nojiko and Ginny was Nami. It'd be seeeeew cute. lol

Vivi looks pretty simple, you're right. I'd definitely help you out.

I'm me about it! :DDDD

Edit: Heyyy uh, you don't happen to have any full length images of Bellemere? ^_^;;

OMG Meri ur bf is SUCH AN A$$HOLE YOU SHOULD I'm ME LYKE RIGHT AWAYT OK?~!!

Zackarotto · Post by **Zackarotto** » Sat Jun 26, 2004 9:42 pm

Uhm, right...

I find it strange how only the Character Guide, Rumor Guide, and DBZ AMV Guide look like:

"Daizenshuu EX - Guides - _____"

...at the top as opposed to just:

"Daizenshuu EX - _____"

...like everything else. (And the DBZ AMV Guide doesn't even link properly...) I'm assuming it's just your new sorting system that you didn't change on earlier pages?

I just have to point out everything.

Yeah, that inconsistancy always bugged me. I hope Mike fixes it someday. *nudge nudge*

CONSISTENCY IS YOUR FRIEND.

Well, I know how much of a hassle it is to change things like that. Anyone who's had a site with a real layout for any decent amount of time has been there. Still, hope you get to it eventually. Like Meri said.

Post by **VegettoEX** » Sat Jun 26, 2004 10:44 pm

Yeah, a lot of it is just left-over code from all throughout the years. I fix it when I see it, which isn't a whole Hell of a lot of the time, since I'm so used to seeing it the way it is. But yeah, it bugs ME, as well.
