Not that I like it personally, but it is the single most requested<br \/>\nmidi on the internet right now, and amazingly, there are no 98 Degrees<br \/>\nmidis in existence.

Do you think you can still<br \/>\nsequence the song &#8220;Tell Me It&#8217;s Real&#8221; by Kci and jojo, even though if<br \/>\nsome one already sequenced it also. I mean I looked all over the net,<br \/>\nand I still wasn&#8217;t able to find it though. You would be the best if you<br \/>\ncan sequence the song. If you can&#8217;t do that one, can you at least do one<br \/>\nof these other two songs?<br \/>\n1. the bryan mcknight song &#8220;back at one&#8221;<br \/>\nor 2. the Ja Rule song &#8220;How many wanna&#8221;. The ja rule song is from the<br \/>\nLight it Up soundtrack, and contains a sample from the theme song of<br \/>\nMcGuyver (the first 14 seconds of the song).

Some of you may remember me, some of you may not, but I&#8217;m pretty sure you know who I am.<br \/>\nAnyway&#8230; I&#8217;m just saying that I have changed email from a Hotmail account to this one&#8230; if it matters to you.<br \/>\nSo my new email is jeffreyatw@portalofevil.com . My old one was jeffreyatw@hotmail.com , just if you wanted to know.<br \/>\nSo thanks for listening, and I&#8217;ll talk to you soon!<\/p>\n<h3>Comixeseses<\/h3>\n<address>Cedric Henry<\/address>\n<p>10\/05\/01<br \/>\nJeffery:<br \/>\nI just read through the Midgard archives.  You&#8217;re not bad for someone at your age and level of experience, but allow me to give you a few pointers (so to speak).<br \/>\nHTML files:  Colors are good for a site layout.  Black and white can only be done with an equal amount of one over the other.  Tons of one or the other can be particularly annoying, since &#8211; and I&#8217;m quoting from Bill Watterson here, so listen up &#8211; the human eye is drawn to empty white space, so an abundance of it is a BAD thing.<br \/>\nLook at RPG World&#8217;s page.  Or Cutewendy&#8217;s.  Or mine, or instance.<br \/>\nDrawing techniques:  I suggest you don&#8217;t give up on the tablet so easily.  Yes:  It&#8217;s been nine months since I got mine and I&#8217;ve only recently started to kick ass with it, but look at some of the more recent acts of JFC-ery.  My comic is one hundred percent tablet-drawn, buddy.  So is Cutewendy, come to think of it.  Think about it.<br \/>\nIf you still want to abandon tablet-ing, try this simple technique with Photoshop:  After your line art is scanned in, press CTRL-A.  Right click on the image and select &#8220;Layer Via Cut&#8221;.  Then go to the &#8220;Layers&#8221; window, select the layer with your line art on it, and select &#8220;Multiply&#8221; from the nearby dropdown menu.  Create a new layer below it and you will be able to color without fear of damaging your line art.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;ll at least get SOME use out of your crappy Graphire tablet, you COMMUNIST.<br \/>\nFinally:  Your writing is beginning to kick ass.  Lose the patronizing attitude when talking to me.  Give up all assumptions that you&#8217;ll ever make money off of what you do, and admit that you didn&#8217;t think that I&#8217;d become such a BIG-SHOT COMIC CREATOR.  Why, I bet you couldn&#8217;t stop rubbing your eyes and going &#8220;HUH?!?!!&#8221; when I drew that RPG World guest comic.  And this is from a guy who used to impersonate Seanbaby FULL-TIME!
