Whats the point in llamas?

[AtomicMangos]

Hello everyone!
My name is Ana-Miyazaki(dA account name).
I've been a deviant artist for over a year now and I dont understand one thing.
What are the "llamas" for?
People have donated llamas to me but..
I dont know what to do with them.
Can anyone help me answer this question?

That is a very good question, which I do not know the answer to. razz Sorry, wish I could help. D:

Hopefully it's a good something, if anything at all. If not, I really wish I could not receive them. I don't like this whole "llama" thing people seem to be so obsessed with.

And if they are useful in some weird way...I still might not want them...

Are you serious? So basicly they dont have a real purpose but to show their appreciation. Well ok then, I understand but I really dont see how people can get so crazy about llamas on dA. I honestly think its pretty weird. Well if the llamas ARE good things then I'll be happy to get some more.

If you get a certain amount your llama 'upgrades' from a normal llama to a super llama, then albino llama, etc.

I just like collecting them ^^;

They're a good way to find new, random and active deviants too - it's better than the random deviant link smile
