hello everyone!

Trash Vampire

Thanks guys.
And congrats everyone else
aaaaaaaaand such beautiful growings!
Also Appeal, I love that kiokote. reminds me of an old map. c:

I am so out of it today.
Like when I stand up I have no balance and I feel really dizzy. @_@;;

I do have a question though!
What advice would you guys give to someone new to or trying to get into b/c?
More specifically, my boyfriend really likes limn, but the whole concept of b/c shops and how they work confuses him, and he's a bit shy. So. |D

Lost: Aww, I'm sad to hear that. :C
The only other tron B/C I've sort of like is The Grid, but the art is so... inconsistent. It bugs me. >.<


Aaah, well, I own The Grid, so I can give word-of-god on why xD It's surprisingly hard to find artists with exactly the same style, so I intentionally hired two artists with differing styles. We try to maintain internal consistency, but other than that, we go with whatever styles look good for the piece we're working on. Digital Frontier actually also had a number of very different artists who were all very good, too. I think part of the difficulty is how small the Tron fandom is, at least within B/C; it's hard to find good artists, let alone artists that can or want to mimic each other's styles.

sldkfmsl aw, Jun, thank you ;u; <3 All the praise should go to my two artists, though, they do amazing work that always eclipses my own.

Lovely starbabies, and that kiokote's feather edit is very pretty! Also hrngh that auction, I know I shouldn't but I might as well try Q AQ

Well, the thing that helped me most when I entered B/C was to enter in with a very good friend who could hold my hand. x3

I also entered a... sort of slow one, though not as slow as most of them are right now. I can still hardly handle the huuuuuge fast paced ones (not Matope though, I don't consider this one MAJOR fast paced.)

I also stuck with just that one for a while, until I was completely comfortable there, and then I started to branch out (and now I have more subscribed threads than I ever had before, lol).

I don't know much about limn though, so I can't give much advice on that front. As long as he has someone in that shop that can guide him through, I think that'll be fine.

goal of the day: complete 5 naming dreams

Watch out, Mage. Ima release all my naming dreams at one time and claim an entire page. haha


To get them into bc? Show them lots of pretties. "You want? Too bad. Gotta stick around"
Good deal Jun. biggrin That's the one I wanted. <3
B/C advice. Read -- stickies, front pages, pretty much everything -- and if you know someone there, ask them questions. I would say more (besides obvious common sense) but I'm being dragged off. I'm sure everyone else will be much more helpful though, mm-hmm!

Getting someone to show him the ropes is definitely a good idea. A practice event in a smaller shop or notably forgiving environment might be a good idea!

Speaking of forgiveness, I should REALLY be working on some games to give away some Dickens...

for me, I continually got told about how awesome matope is and how I should join .. I lurked about and won a contest, which is how I got Leaf-rustle. and from there things just exploded.

Alabaster should RP with my mute kimeti, Hibiscus

That will be interesting. Hibiscus is your Blossom x Walks boy, right? The gold and pink one? I'd be up for Alabaster x Hibiscus breeding if you want. Or just making them bffs if that's how the rp goes.

Mage is phone netting so I'll reply to other's as I see them or when I get home.

I'd love to. Except I only have like 300k lol. 700k if I sell an item. Which'll get outbid so fast. xD
