Splitting one quote into four and dealing with each facet seperately...come on now, less of that! Down with that sort of thing!

Is there any problem with that?
I just find it a handy way of communication...

Ok, perspective could use some work-

THEY'RE FLOATING LIMBLESS STICK FIGURES OVER WATER WITH A SUNSET IN THE BACKGROUND FOR DRAMATIC EFFECT

And that sunset was freaking hard to make, so be glad.

I was just joking around, invertin. Nice choice of colors, they work well together.

If that sunset we see on that pic as it is was hard to make, you're doing it wrong.

A very efficient way of painting stuff is by beginning with the elements that are the furthest away. That way, you've got the horizon halving the sun and the floating black penis covered.

As for the sun gradient, you could have easily begun with the biggest circle, then gradially decreased the size and changed the color of the circle and painting with smaller and smaller circles over the backdrop circles and undoing mistakes. Then you could have corrected the color gradient by filling the circles with different colors until you're satisfied. That way you would have painted exactly what we're seeing in probably 2 minutes.

Except if you've done it with mspaint, then there are some oddities that slow down progress. Slightly.

Wait, water? No, it's a large purple flatland area with a sunset. Or a portal.

Different-coloured circles and excessive use of the blur tool. Get The GIMP; trust me, it's useful for this kind of stuff.
