Gattuso is a gladiator. I don't really follow the Scottish league but when he played for Rangers it must have really toughened him up. Any defensive midfielder coming from physically demanding leagues will do very well in Serie A. A good example is Patrick Vieira now on Inter, he's lost a bit of form. Though on Juventus he was dominating.
England look good so far in Euro. Wright-Phillips is really starting to bloom for the team (I love SWP, needs to get out of Chelsea I think). Italy is hanging in there (team I pull for
). I think we can beat Scotland.Though Scotland, even in the CL are doing well. 2-1 Celtic over Milan and Rangers murdering Lyon 3-0.
EDIT: I love Sheva, but let's face it, if you have Pirlo and Kaka in top form when he was there, you are guaranteed goals. To go from a league where it's like playing chess, to a league where you play caveman is hard. Now that Shevchenko really needs to work to hold up against defenders he just kind of falls apart. Still a quality striker no less, just not the Milan striker he was.

NRO, do you think he would be able to handle the physicality in the EPL?
He may fall under the omen of 'Brazilians never go well in England'
He'll get knocked around I'm sure, though in comparison to Shevchenko, Kaka is on another level. He has great balance, control, speed and when he does get knocked he's usually right back up with the ball at his feet.
Though anyone from Serie A will have a hard time, and vice-versa.
I dunno, whenever they've played England, he's one of the few players who actually seems up for a physical contest.International level is totally different from club level. Terry, Ferdinand, Carragher (or whoever England decides to call) together is almost impossible to take down, suicide even to try coming through the middle, which is how Brazil love to play.
Generally England, Italy & Germany are very hard teams to score on.

That list sucks, if you ask me, I'm with ya on the players you mentioned, they all had excellent seasons for their respective teams.
From that list, though, I would have given it to Christiano Ronaldo, even though I hate the little crybaby
, he was carrying MU on his back most of the season. But I guess Kaka took it cause they won the CL :\What's this about Dida?
For what they provide to there team, Kaka in my opinion is the better player and personally, Totti to me, is the best and most consistent player.
Ronaldo's form in the premiership is great, but unlike Kaka/Totti, he's not very good in the CL. I also think Kaka would do way better in the premiership then Shevchenko fared. Kaka is way to fast and it seems the premiership leaves more open spaces to run then you would find in Serie A.

Actually this is just the voting thread. Want critiques? Post in the showoff forum or whatever it's called.
As for the votes so far...
NRO: 4
Pulse: 2
Whiplash: 2
Napoleon Bonaparte: 1
Shinji: 1
My votes are from people who said they voted, I'm saying this because WAIW just said mine looked awesome. So unless he says he votes for mines, it will stay at four.
-
Agreed, I see Milan being inconsistent until they can use Pato and hopefully they'll end up in 3rd/4th to hold on to a Champion's League spot. That is unless they win again.

I think lack of color is a good thing. I am one of those people that doesn't like bright and colorful sigs. I think you add enough when it is needed. The text does need some work. But you are miles ahead of most of us anyway and will only get better with time, so its all good.
Some of them do have color, and they lack a variety of them. Some them are almost monochrome because of this.

Zidane, Eiko, Vivi & Freya

WAIW's entry gets my vote. Great theme/stock use and the mood has an excellent feel as it has a good even amount of blending and color.
-
It's to boring, I think the stock takes up too much of the canvas. Maybe resizing the stock will free up more space and open up some available/new well needed blending options.
-
Not really. Milan have been pants this season so far.
Rangers beating Lyon was the bigger shock, I would say.
Murdered Lazio 5-1. Gilardino actually bagged some goals.

You don't have to literally draw, but rather save PSD's as you go.
-
Action/Adventure, though sadly I naturally excel in racing games.

-
You just lack color and the will to stop adding things when the tag is actually probably finished. I think you might benefit from actually drawing it our first or as you go.
-
First one is fire. Great demonstration of awesome stock use.
-
Go big!!!!

Well, it is all matter of opinion. Though I would just like to add that stock itself was already chaotic. So everyones tag is in some form chaotic. Napoleon who made a very classy tag worked with this stock almost perfect(some areas are a bit dull, you should have just removed the monster completely) and I feel is the most underrated of the pack.
My tag is busy as hell. It's going to appeal to some and not so much to others. It was meant to play on chaos, tried something different. I made it so you can try to see in your own way the different things you (the observer) think is happening in the tag. Instead of one focal point, there are none or just many in mine. I think my tag is fun.
Yes, my vote goes to NB.

Long hair is actually one of the things that I love, it's sexy. Very few women I have met look better then they did with long hair. I'm very picky about hair.
Though for most of these, some of them are "broken". Because if you want so much perfection out of a woman, you're not going to last very long.

A quick 3-4 hour colouring of Tetsuya.
I think the shading/coloring on the character himself is amazing and the drawing is very good.
-
Maybe an idea is for the character to look through someones eye or mind. You might be able fill up more of the canvas this way.

Final Fantasy IX, was the most emotional touching to me. Especially since I feel like I'm Zidane in many ways. Some parts I really liked were Zidane after talking to Garland and then going into like deep depression and pretty much disowning his friends, then you get like murk the hell out of monsters.
I also loved when Beatrix and Steiner go out and help the town. That music was perfect and I really felt they were harmonizing in battle, as well as their personalities. Corny, yes but I always love to watch it.
-
Actually I genuinely don't like you, but you were up on the news and you did great as a mod.

I just would like to see the "rips" look more genuine. it looks like he's looking through some portal.

I think some teams in Italy would love Drogba, and Roma need a pure striker bad, someone who can hold up the ball and get it in the net. A lot of Roma's goals are one timers. There's nothing bad with that, but if it's not Totti, the player usually making the run on the ball is going to bullshit it. (Giuly is a prime example, great player, just can't put it in the net)
If Shevchenko can start getting in the habit to track back more and get out of the habit of cherry picking, he'll get better. Poaching is hard in the ELP unless you have size like Drogba and RVN. Even then RVN, was all over the place. Even though there seems to be more space, the ELP pretty much demands that you're constantly moving. Not that walking bullshit most strikers do in Serie A.
