Any story behind the title "Always for Them..."? I'm assuming it deals with Schala's selflessness and sacrifice.

The caption had a specific meaning when I decided to add it, but I think I'll leave it open to interpretation.

Not to critique your art but I agree with V_Translanka, could you maybe add a slight blur effect the lens flare? Then it would be perfect in my eyes.

Lol. I tried holding my head like that for two seconds and it hurt like hell. Ouch. :P

Post by: sage on October 24, 2007, 12:17:40 am: Wow, that looks pretty good. I like the little caption on it. The meaning to me personally is that Schala never did anything for herself as long as we knew her. Things such as closing the portal in order to save Crono and his companions from the prophet and protecting Janus by doing what her mother demanded.

Nicely done.
