This is a static copy of In the Rose Garden, which existed as the center of the western Utena fandom for years. Enjoy. :)

SKU A Softer World Remixes
A Softer World (http://www.asofterworld.com/index.php) is a webcomic with a distinctive format that easily lends itself to remixes. The premise of a remix is simple: while keeping the original frames (with the credit line) and text, images are replaced with ones of a person's choosing. There are remixes for a lot of different fandoms - I found BBC!Sherlock, Inception, Doctor Who and Axis Powers Hetalia ones - but I've never seen SKU ones before. So, I decided to make some. 
There is at least one big SPOILER in this post, so if you haven't finished the series, proceed with caution. Also, alternative character interpretation. Alternative character interpretation everywhere.
(The text in parentheses underneath the pictures is alttext - the messages you see when you mouseover the original strips.)
(But I do)
(I could never deny her anything)
(One last desperate hope)
(Oops)
(She was so fluffy)
(You were always smiling)
If anyone wishes to contribute their remixes, here's a link with the template, link to the font used, and other information: http://community.livejournal.com/askati … tml#cutid1

Re: SKU A Softer World Remixes
Epi_lepsia, I joined a long time ago but never had anything to contribute. 
Anyway, since it seems someone other than me likes my remixes, I decided to make some more. Thanks for they encouraging words, guys. 
(also, maybe you could brush more)
(and I don't want to be alone)
(another bathroom break)
(flush one pill, three times daily)
(get well soon)
(why not smile?)

Re: SKU A Softer World Remixes
Please don't mind me spamming up the thread. These are really addicting to make.
(I want you to be different.)
(It was worth it, just to hold you.)
(And to think I thought of you as mighty.)
EDIT: Oh my god, I made more.
(Good riddance.)
(I don't like sharing.)

Re: SKU A Softer World Remixes
I keep rediscovering how damn eloquent this forum is.
Does anyone want to help a GIMP novice learn how to resize and crop images? Whenever I try to resize a layer, it resizes the whole image instead. I ended up doing almost all of this in Paint.

Re: SKU A Softer World Remixes
Hi, guys, remember me? :'D I was really busy for the last few months, but I made some new remixes.
(but do I love you. do you want me to loosen the cuffs?)
(I promise I'm going to seem to do right by you)
(you are so close to being the perfect sister!)
(now get out of the bushes before I call the cops)

Re: SKU A Softer World Remixes
My goodness I love these things. I especially like Alvanista's Touga one.
Forgive me for rage-quitting on Gimp and reverting to MS Paint, but I wanted a go and technology is aggravating today~
(seek release, boy)
ETA: this one, too
