Really? Well, you know what they say: great minds think alike! ^^ Yeah, I agree about the childbirth thing. I thought about writing about Jafar's past once, but I don't think I could do that. It would get too OOC, I think. What's your favorite genre for fanfics, btw?

Oh, cool! I have an account, can I add you as a friend? I bet your slideshow is good! I'd love to watch it. My account just has playlists really. lol Kinda boring.

Lol, yeah? My friend helped me with GIMP and now I can do stuff on there for the most part although I've only been using it for a month. Do you use photoshop often?

That’s exactly what I’m afraid of. Explaining why he’s evil (and making it believable) and all that would be difficult. But I guess it’s work a shot. I like adventure, parodies, and romance genre.

And sure! 8D

I heard GIMP was a really good program, I just could never figure it out. And I’ve been using Photoshop for a few months (so I’m getting the hang of it. ^^;). I use it semi-often depending on what I draw.

Yeah! I don't even have any ideas of why he's evil. Maybe he was just born that way. I don't really care; he's awesome evil! <3 I love romance. ^^ Then again, I suppose that's so obvious...

Yeah, GIMP is pretty good, I think although there's so much to learn and it takes me ages to make things on there. What do you use Photoshop to make? ^^

I was thinking it was probably because Jafar dreamed of being respected (he was probably born low-class or something along those lines) and wanted to be heard. But when he became the subordinate of the Sultan, his desire for respect soon turned to a desire for power due to some unpleasant events. Or maybe it's because Jafar's naturally mean-spirited. :P His voice actor, Jonathan Freeman described him as this ‘nasty kid who got sent to boarding school’ or something like that. XD; It was in some kind of Aladdin-related interview.

I use Photoshop to make pictures (mostly DWOW-related, since I love that site to death <3). Jafar’s extremely hard to draw without a reference, but if I have a picture of him in front of me, then I could easily draw him.

That's a pretty good theory! I actually never thought he was born low-class, but that's just my opinion. He's VERY power hungry though, but I suppose that's why we all love him. <3 Lol, nice way to describe him by Johnathan Freeman! Love it!

Ah, very cool! Can I see some of your Jafar pics sometime? *looks hopeful*

Neither did I. To be honest, I think it would be more realistic if he wasn’t born low-class-it’s just I thought it would give him some sort of motivation to obtain power. But yeah, not many commoners go up in power like that.

And sure! I just got to upload them (and possibly redraw them xD).

Oh my gosh, it's new people week. Where are all of you coming from? Laughing

Hello, hello, hello! Very Happy

Yeah, I think you're right because he kind of goes on about that in one of the deleted songs about why he hasn't gotten to where he wants to be yet and all. Good luck if you decide to write about him growing up, I think it would be an interesting read.

And yes! You should definitely upload them sometime. I'm dying to see them. ^^

@ AladdinsGenie

Hello! ^^ Nice to meet you! I’m a former lurker, lol.

@ JafarsRomancer

Thanks, I’ll need the luck. xD

And I will, I just got to fix my darn scanner. It keeps screwing up. D8

JafarsRomancer · Posted: Sun Oct 09, 2011 9:01 am Post subject:

*sends you more luck* Have you started writing yet? I try to write for at least an hour a day, but sometimes I get busy or just don't feel like it. Razz

Aw! I had a friend who had a problem with her scanner. They are magnets for breaking or something. lol

Not yet. Reason being, I have to reply to a bunch of posts on DWOW. Some of them as Jafar, lol. Once I get some time on my hands, I will.

Yeah, a few of my friends have problematic scanners. They’re just breaking left and right. :P

DWOW? What's that? I have a feeling I just asked a really stupid question. Is it a RPing site?

And rofl, exactly! Someone needs to invent better scanners!

DWOW is Disney World of War. It's an active RPG site where I play as Jafar, Nasira, 'Hunter' (a beauty and the beast wolf) and a few other disney characters. Basically, there's a huge war going on between all the disney characters and there's three sides-The Heroes, the Human Villains, and the Animal Villains. Um, there's so many plots going on, that it's difficult to explain. I've been on a few other RPG sites, but they either died off or I lost interest. It's so much fun. xD

And yes, people do need to invent better scanners. Mine keeps screwing up. >> May have to resort to using my camera.

DWOW sounds pretty great! I've done a few RPs before too and they always seem to die off. I might want to join DWOW. Is it hard to find an RP to join? That's awesome that you get to play Jafar. <3

Lol, yes, better scanners ftw! Oh well, at least you have a camera. Mine disappeared somehow. :S

It is a fun site. I’ve been to many Disney RPGs and Disney World of War is the best one I’ve seen. The staff is extremely nice and helpful and many of the members are friendly. I've been playing since December 1st of 2010.

And it’s really easily to find an RP. You can either plan a thread or just join one.

Here's the plot of the war: CLICK HERE

And my camera went missing for six months. Dx Not a happy time.
