Introduction
Hello! I'm Taokookoo but you can just call me Tao for short. Here is where I'll keep track of my dream avi quest. Of course I'll have more than one but I'll only be questing one at a time with breaks in between. I've been a member since 11/04/2010 and I'm a very active member. I do booty grab every night to get gold for my dream avi and participate in contests. If you want to know more about me, I invite you to stay and chat. I reveal more about myself once I get to know a person.

I'm not asking for donations but they are appreciated. I would love avi art of my dream avi(s)!

I also started a role-play involving angels and demons. I need more people, so if you're interested, please join!

Accepting Applications!

Here is where I will feature a fellow gaian who has either won a contest or has been chosen after applying. This is the only place where you can advertise your quests, charities, and shops. I believe everyone deserves a place in the spotlight. I know that it can be hard sometimes to get noticed amongst all the other places that people can go to on Gaia. So I made this so that everyone can have their chance to get noticed!

Rules
1. You must fill out all required information in order to be considered.
2. Please send it through a pm titled "Featured Gaian Application" or post it here.
3. If you are being featured here as a prize for the contest, you can provide only the information that you wish to and are not required to complete it. Please send me the pm as soon as you can once I've notified you of winning.
4. Do not beg to be placed here as it will get you permanently banned from ever being featured even if you apply later on.
5. Please keep all information PG-13 and follow the main rules in the second post.
6. You must have been on Gaia for at least a month and have a minimum of 25 posts. I will check profiles, so make sure that your registration date and post total is on your profile.
7. Each gaian chosen will be featured for two weeks.
8. If you stay and chat with me and I get to know you, your chances of being featured will go up.
9. If you aren't chosen for the weeks you applied, you don't need to re-apply. I'll keep all applications saved on my computer and they'll be considered for the next two weeks.

*bump* I need to go run some errands. I'll be back later!

[Taokookoo 808]

I'm back! crying My internet went out. I had like no internet for 6 hours!!! It finally started working again. But I might have to call someone if it stops working again. So if I suddenly disappear, it's because my internet stopped working.

[Taokookoo 808]

Maybe I need an open post so everyone knows that I am open. Here we go...

Now Open!
