    Thank you! I'm sure that eventually I'll do a full-on Sayid vid. I'm slowly starting to cover other characters than Sawyer (*gasp!* There are other characters than Sawyer in this show??? ). But I'm glad you enjoyed what Sayidness this vid did have!

    I really like this video, it's fab! I just wish there was a bit more Sayid in it though hehe

    Aw, thank you, Jane! *hugs* I really appreciate you taking time to check it out and to comment! This was my first vid with WMM 2 and its sepia and so forth effects, so I was really worried about it looking good. So glad that you liked it!

    And I forgot that this one doesn't have a downloadable link anymore... *goes to fix that*

    Thanks again!

    ETA: New downloadable link, just in case! http://www.badongo.com/vid/164645

    Wow A, you always cease to amaze me ... or ... you never cease to amaze me. You know what I mean. Another superb video.

    I loved the fades to sepia and the old western showdown.

    That's me, also saying nothing.

    On the grounds that I don't want to start an emoticon war of ":shock" emoticons, and that I have no other way to respond to that post of yours, I'm just gonna stay quiet

    So that was me saying nothing.

    Yay, somebody finally noticed my cowboy showdown! I actually worked on that a lot longer than it probably would ever look like it. But I had a definite idea of what I wanted there -- a faded-out, sort of old pen-and-ink drawing of a classic Western showdown. It took a long time to find the right angles on the saloon and I never did find two cowboys in the right poses. So I used two reference pics and drew over them! Which is why I tried to keep them moving fast. I'm not exactly brilliant in drawing with a mouse...

    Ah, and you got another of the things I had to work quite hard on! WMM will sepia tone a clip for you. What it WON'T do is fade out to sepia tone. It just slams into it! So I had to figure out a way to get it to do a gradual fade out or fade in. It didn't come out perfect but I was still fairly pleased with it. I usually get tickled when I managed to figure out a way to force one of the WMMs into doing something that they really can't do! At least, that they can't do with the click of a button!

    But I AM seriously loving all the things you can do with the click of a button, BTW!

    Thank you again for your review! It really made my day!

    Okay, this video gets HUGE FREAKING AMOUNTS of Style Points (tm)!!

    Style Points (tm) are for vidders for refuse to follow this genre's rapidly-expanding list of cliches, but instead choose to forge their own path into the uncharted territory that really does need to be explored in order for things to remain interesting.

    Style Points (tm) for this video include:

    Making Sayid the opposing cowboy instead of Jack.

    The whole cowboy motif, with the badge and the flashing images of a sundown showdown.

    Saving the big Skate kiss for the ending.

    The fades to sepia on the Wanted poster and during the song.

    The adorable dedication at the end.

    All this adds up to:

    * * * * --- four out of four stars!!

    Very nicely done, I am DEFINITELY looking forward to more work from you.
