I have so many Fanmixs finished but I can't complete covers that I am happy with.
Most of the ones I've posted I'm still not happy with.

I either need to find someone to make them for me or learn how to use software/get proper photo editing software...
With videos I can work it out but photos shrivel and die under my cursor.

Any suggestions?

I was cleaning up my computer and came across a file of old MCR fanfic I wrote when I was in college.
I thought I would put them back out into cyber space. It is a little embarrassing how slutty most of my OFCs are.
