  Hey there!
  First of all, sorry for the late reply. I was quite busy in the last few days, so unfortunately, I missed your comment.
  
  Anyway, thank you so, so much for your amazing words!! You can't imaginge how proud and happy I am when I hear that I'm even regarded as an inspiration to other vidders. That's such a huge compliment!! I don't know how to really say thank, but well, thank you so much!

  Karolina, you have to be my favorite vidder on this entire site! (don't get creeped out, I'm a married female LOL)

  
  
  
  Don't worry. I didn't misinterpret that, but I did feel totally flattered anyway because that's such a wonderful compliment. Thanks so much again!
  
  Are you working on any new Lost vids? (I just discovered your Jate vid, but I haven't seen it. Will do so in a moment)

  Okay that does it Karolina, you have to be my favorite vidder on this entire site! (don't get creeped out, I'm a married female LOL) It's just to an aspiring vidder like myself your work is such an inspiration; you really are very talented. I'm a natural artist myself, and I'm picky, so it takes alot for me to be truely impressed; not that I'm super important or anything, I just wanted you to know that's how much I appreciate your vids. Anyways thanks for reading! -Cassie

  To me, zooming is one of the most difficult part of vidding because you can easily mess it up by zooming too much or too often. I'm happy to hear that you thought it was good.

  
  
  That's really so true about zooming because there's so much of it that's difficult to control as well -- just because you want a nice slow zoom on something doesn't mean you can have it if your clip is too short, for example! But you always handle it so effortlessly! *applause*

  Thank again for commenting!! *much love* (how do you make those hearts again? )

  
  
  You're quite welcome! *loves back* And the easiest way to make the hearts is ALT + the number pad 3 (it won't work with the 3 on the top row of the keyboard, strangely enough! ). ♥ Then I usually "super-size them" to make them easier to see. ♥ You can also use the code &#_9829_; without the _'s to get it to work as well!

  Thank you so much, Ais! I'm glad you liked it, especially the zooming parts. To me, zooming is one of the most difficult part of vidding because you can easily mess it up by zooming too much or too often. I'm happy to hear that you thought it was good.
  
  And yeah, the happy ending was almost a necessity for me here. Since the major part of the vid isn't happy at all and after vids like Fallen or How It Ends I just needed a happy ending.

  Sorry that I'm just now getting to catch up on all the vids I missed while I was gone!
  
  Oh, I just loved this! You really have a masterful way of knowing how to use the music, when it calls for a straight zoom and when it calls for one of those cool twisting sorts of zooms, how long to hold the split screens, how fast to quick cut... It's just all amazing! Plus you even got a happy ending out of all of it! That was just the best of all, in my book! What a great vid to just leave a Des fangirl smiling! *applause, applause applause* ♥♥♥!!!
  
  (Plus the YT icon is just fantastic, lol! )

  LOL at the YouTube icon!

  
  
  
  It puts a smile... well, actually a silly grin ... on my face every time I see it. I think I won't change that one (I changed most of the other icons some time ago).

  hehe AWESOME!
  Yay, for your song choice, I've actually been listening to it quite a lot lately, so when I saw this vid... Great song! And a perfect choice for this vid.
  And it's a great vid to go with the great song!
  FANTASTIC editing! AWESOME job!
  LOL at the YouTube icon!

  Love this vid! The split-screen effect was awesome for this and I loved how it was from Desmonds POV ... loved the happy ending too
