Installing drywall isn't just about slapping the gypsum-board sheets onto the wall studs, then painting it and calling it a day. There's an extra step you have to take between the "slap" and "paint" portions of the project: You have to tape and "mud" the seams between the individual drywall pieces. This will prevent the seams from showing up on the paint job and allow the wall to look like a single, unified piece.
