Bro, the only way to make your room cooler is just going out, buying some cool posters and doing it yourself.
Not asking and seeing what we like, it's what YOU like.
paint your room black-windows and all
find a wall across window that's big enough
put paper on wall, make small hole in window paint, exposing light onto the paper
develop in photo developer, PRESTO. your room is a pinhole camera.

Turning your room into a pinhole camera?
That would be so awesome.
Get rid of the action figures, the posters, and move your gaming equipment (guitar hero controller) somewhere in a corner so its not in the way of anything.
If you're going to put decorations on your wall put something cool on it, like posters of your favourite bands, even some artsy cool looking posters.
As for your wall paint, I would suggest choosing a colour you would never get bored of. Deep/cool blue is a good example.

Put some plain/normal bedsheets on your bed, don't put any cartoon/bright patterns on it, it will make it look kiddish and out of style.

Make your desk space look nicer, and update your shelves. Wall mounted shelves look nice, maybe buy some newer looking ones, such as glass style or something modern.

Get some funky furniture in there as well. The classic, ruby red sofa you have is a good example, but something with more pizzaz. Maybe add a corner sofa and another one to make a secluded space for hanging out with friends and things like so:

Thats all I can suggest right now!

A place without IKEA is like a man without testicles, it just isn't complete.
Get rid of posters, change fruity colors on walls. Light blue and white is fruity in a room.

i dont think this is necessary for obvious reasons
First off:
get a hatrack. Fill it with hats. not any of these shitty gangsta caps that people where these days (seriously why do you keep that sticker on the bill goddamn), but rather some nice ol fashioned caps. get a fedora or two. a newsboy's cap. Mayhaps a top hat. One corner of your room ought to look like a haberdashery.
Secondly,
ditch most of the posters. keep Fight Club, Mafia, and and possibly Watchmen, though i'd rather see a less bright and attention-grabbing poster of it. maybe frame one or two, the jarring transition between painted wall and colored poster doesn't always look too nice.
Thirdly,
ditch your fifth-grade world. get a safe, label it "KIDDIE SHIT" and throw your figurines and sheets and Bionicles(yes I know what they are, when i was two years younger than you i loved them) into it. open it thirty years later when you have kids. They won't know what the hell that stuff is but at least you won't have to look at them.
Fourthly,
i saw that guitar neck hidden behind your couch. get that shit out man chicks will be all over your dick if you hang that motherfucker over your bed.
Finally,
don't ask facepunch.
hmm I don't seem to go very cool with the room. I have a plaid seahorse bed. Customary stand to the side with an alarm clock, lava lamp and drawers for shit. I have a desk on the other side of the bed. It's fairly simple, wooden with a lamp on it and just enough room for a laptop and my text books on the side. On the last side of my room I have a book shelf with my magic cards, all of my books,comics, my hygienic products and a hot wheel oscar meyer weinermobile. On the side of the desk, I have a stack of newspapers that I read. It also leaves a pleasant inky smell after awhile. Masks the smell of semen effectively, and shows my ultra hippy journalism future. I have a closet with all my hipster clothes. Customary black and white hoodie, plaid shirts, graphic tees that aren't shiftily clever, cardigans, knits etc.

Oh so true.
Paint the room a color.

this, pretty much
[QUOTE=-Matt-94;17851273]No offence but that looks like a 12 year old's room.[/QUOTE]
That's what you said about mine awhile back. Just fucking strip it of everything and when your putting everything back you catch all the weird old kid shit.
why on earth did I read that as "sodomize my mom"
You need to get one of those awesome giant stoplights.
[QUOTE=Enishi;17851169]get rid of the posters, get rid of the toys.[/QUOTE]
Or at least change them out with ones with half naked women on them... or men I don't judge.

Thats all I can suggest right now![/QUOTE]
This guy knows what he's talking about, use his suggestion.
Also, my room is the perfect size for his suggestion, I should try it.
Ok, removed all posters (saved the ones I'm going to use again), and put most action figures in a bag.
Holy shit! The carpet and walls in your room are the exact same as the one I'm moving in to!
And I see you have a Bionicle :smug:.
AND, you have the same golden batman I have, well I think I still have it.
I think the room is pretty good, I would just put some more consoles up in that bitch, and get a PC, even an old one if you have to, and put it in that room.
Your room reminds me of a hospital, and that's not a good thing.
[QUOTE=mgear;17856336]Your room reminds me of a hospital, and that's not a good thing.[/QUOTE]
Some pictures remind me of the kids section in the dentist.
Get Rid of all the posters except Mafia and GTA, toss that Guitar Hero shit out, Melt your plastic figures and toss'em
Awsome'ized
Get BETTER posters. Of cool things. Dumb superheroes are a no. Good movies are a yes. Women are a no. Nobody likes woman posters. Except for fat people and perverts.
That watchmen poster can stay, and so can the Fight Club, The Dark Knight and San Andreas posters. All the spiderman posters and the videogame posters gotta go.
Take my example; my posters include the same watchmen poster as you have, The Boondock Saints, Reservoir Dogs, Toy Story, and The Lion King mother fucker. I've got great taste in posters.
Now for the asthetics. Get cool desk/shelf objects. Go to the dollar store and buy cheap ones. I have an old-style phone, a lighthouse, a pirate skull, a typewriter two squirrels, and three raccoons.
Bring in DVD's. That's a good way to entertain guests. When a girl comes over, put in a loud movie to drown the noise of you doing her in the butt. Trust me. It works.
Get black curtains and black sheets. I have black satin sheets, black pillowcase, and a cream colored soft-ass blanket. My guests enjoy my taste in sleep.
Bring your guitar out. Make it a music corner. Band posters in the corner with your guitar.
First, empty your room. CLEAN EVERYTHING, scrub hard. Repaint your room a nice satin color and the molding around the floor to be a tad bit darker than the wall. Remember, nice clean lines. I would remove the built in shelves.
Minimalism is your friend. Store all your shit in drawers/closet.
Aim for something like so: [img]http://freshome.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/boy_bedroom.jpg[/img]
Be like my room
[IMG]http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb134/KorJax/DSCI0011.jpg[/IMG]
Only good shot I have. Walls to the right are sponge-painted, got a computer behind me and a dresser. Communist flag, and a dart board from the 1950's decorate my tiny walls.
Woot :woop:
I should note my room is tiny and I just moved in with not much stuff while also being poor but I really like it.
[editline]05:36AM[/editline]
Here's a better angle of my newly painted walls (shit picture though):
[IMG]http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb134/KorJax/DSCI0009.jpg[/IMG]
Sponge painting fucking rocks. I'm thinking about maybe later on re-organzing my room to have a forest vibe to it complete with potted plants and everything.
I don't see a computer. Where are you browsing FP from?
You NEED to put your computer in your room. If it isn't [I]your[/I] computer, then get one. Also get a mini-fridge and a microwave. Then never leave your room except for school and weekends.
[editline]02:05AM[/editline]
Then you will be one of us.
[editline]02:05AM[/editline]
One of us.
[editline]02:05AM[/editline]
One of us.
[editline]02:06AM[/editline]
One of us.
[editline]02:06AM[/editline]
:zombie:
Leave home at weekends? Ha.
Anyways, I have an idea on what I'm going to do with the room (grammar?)
and like I said, the computer can't come in my room. My parents won't let me, because that computer isn't 100% mine (it kinda is, I'm the only one that uses it and all of my shit is there) so until I have enough money for a laptop or something no pc in my room
