Hi all,
Short bio on myself: I've been into anime and manga since back in 1996 when Sailor Moon was airing on TV. Once I obtained a computer a few years later, I quickly found Snoopycool.com and was introduced into the world of fan translated manga and many many series that have become my favorites. My most notable works are with them, including Flame of Recca back before Viz licensed it (1999/2000ish) and more recently series such as Franken Fran, LucuLucu and Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer. I've been using Photoshop (currently working in CS5) and other image editing software for nearly 12 years and have approx. 400 chapters under my belt total (though I have never counted). I currently run my own website, fan translating Yuu Watase's unlicensed series. Links to my two websites where my work can be viewed are posted below. Unfortunately Snoopycool is down right now, but i can also share an example of my work with them if you'd like. Please PM me or send me an email directly if interested,
senshi_cosmos@hotmail.comI have already submitted my contract to DMG and can begin work immediately. I look forward to working with a highly dedicated group and love working closely with the translator/editor to get the most out of any manga. My average turn-around is 50-60 pages a week when working with a dedicated group. As far as group organization goes, I am willing to be open to any ideas, including being the lead.
Examples of my work can be found at:

Arigatou! *bow*
