Your welcome! It was a really well done portrait of Aizen. I don't know about you but my favorite part was the shading of the face. Kind of reminds me that he always keeps a part of himself hidden away while revealing only what they want to see. Could be that I'm reading why too much into it.

Hmmm, that's true - he's so mysterious.
And I think you just trying to understand his character better. Nothing wrong
But I'm wondering - why you like him so much?
Most of fans tell me that he's really bad person and they don't like him at all. They're supporting idea of Soul Society, think that it's right... and hate everything about Hueco Mundo and Aizen.
So... what do you think?

Well, calling him a bad person is really sugarcoating it. You can say he's a cross between Adolf Hitler and Josef Mengele. Oh, that last question can be seen as a philosophical question.
If you think about it, Soul Society can be seen as a place of order, a place where sophisticated civilization can thrive and grow. At its top, is the Soul King which can be described as the supreme ruler and being that is focal point of the universe and is the keystone to all life. Usually, books, movies, and other media need to have a counter point to such an organization. Enter Hueco Mundo, a place where instinct-driven beings fight daily to survive. That place is always in a state of change as the groups fight each other, seeking dominance or more power.
Bottom line: Soul Society is the reflection of everything good in life while Hueco Mundo is the reflection of everything bad.
From my own standpoint, there are flaws in Soul Society that aren't really talked about. Case in point the rationale behind the Maggot's Nest. Imprisoning people just for the possibility of being a threat is inhumane. But that can be turned into a whole essay.
As for your initial question. I guess it goes back to having a human that lacks all morale compassion for his fellow man. I just want to know what makes him tick but then one could say that people like that are born missing something that cannot be regained in anyway. Since I'm a fanfic author, usually I deal with the questions of what happens if this happened instead, would he still have those same attributes but different ambitions? Plus, the things that feel the way for Ichigo to win seemed a little too Deus Ex Machina for my tastes.

Huh? Are you're talking about the Firefox one? It would be cool to have one when it's finished. But I'm a poor college student so don't have money to buy.

You clicked on the 'request a print' button. I figured it was a mistake.
