Yeah I don't think they make much gold anymore. They used to but, alas no such thing anymore. :c



Ah well, just selling random dumpster diving junk, or being able to produce any level of art gets you billions now'a days.

I'm sorry to butt into the conversation, but I, too, am a little disappointed with the way the mini-shop forum is in now. I took a brief break from Gaia and came back to see a buttload of adoptables shop and a lot of my favorite shops closing due to inactivity or simply lack of interest. It made me really sad :'C

Also, I miss the Collective SO. MUCH. Mini-shops just seems so empty now...

I know! it seems everyone just came back from a break lol, I remember being about to spend an entire day lurking the Minishops threads and constantly see everything moving, now I try to lurk the minishop forum out of habit and it leaves me staring at the same shops and pages most the day, infact most days I'm active my name is usually on under "last post" for 6 or 7 shops most of the day, it's pretty disappointing.

Is it really so bad to just want happy charming minishops back in action and to see some of the old ones become re-active, I saw a few of the owners of some really interesting stores I used to regular and now they've been delegated to making adoptables, which always seemed like a game of "Draw my fetish and I'll buy it" to me.

In fact that's exactly how I explained it to my fiancée who had no idea what they were.

Edit: Speaking of which I keep meaning to buy from you because your thread is beautiful, your art is beautiful and it's all laid out incredibly well, I just never get around to it because I'm lazy.

Yeah, organizing my toybox brought a lot of memories! I have no idea when adoptables started to get popular, but I regret not being able to buy from certain shops before my break from Gaia. I had subscribed to so many shops that I've been meaning to buy from, but I'm unable to buy anything from them now because they're all closed/inactive :C

Yup, it made me very sad... it's really hard trying to find nice shops now with all the adopts threads flooding the front page. And to be honest, I haven't ordered anything in a while.

Really? Have you checked out the Hana thread, ooooor I dunno there are so few threads and you've probably got them all sad We need a resurrection of mini-shops.

I literally have 50b right now, if I don't win Hana then whoever wins must be sucking a gaia developer's d**k or something to afford it. And I shall hate them for all eternity!

XD I'm sure you'll get it right?!
but I guess a month is quite a wait, especially if there's a bidding war going on.

Dancing In Lunar Rays


Serkunet: Mmhmm. Good ol' New York weather. Boiling hot and muggy in the summer, freezing cold with tons of snow in the winter.

My and DA tutorials are best bros right now. I rely on them so much.

Gets pretty cold here in winter as well, hate those icing cold winds as well! Don't get as much snow though v.v which is sad.

I love reading the tutorials there but I rarely ever follow them v.v like I just sit down and try them XD

Nice! I've been working on a lot of art projects irl. I've also been trying to re-organize my toybox again XD

Oh very nice! digital or traditional work?
XD That must be quite a task! I'd imagine you have collected quite alot from the minishops!

Luckily there is no war yet, I've scared off the only other bidder currently, but I've seen lurkers with enough money to easily drop 500b on junk, I trust no one :< I'm just hoping it doesn't get bumped at all >.<

Up to 100b now :<

Just keep saving! and don't mention how much gold you have to your bidders XD
Yea, not bringing the thread up front is a good idea XD
I guess people will forget!

Ya know guys, I do have a confession, I was tempted to make an adoptable thread before, just to see if people would just be interested in just buying a random character I drew :l, but I really didn't like the idea of doing it myself so I just left it but the temptation to do it when I found out how popular and how much gold you could get from it was alluring.... v.v

Hana is a gorgeous shop and yes I have already ordered from there :3 We definitely need more new shops!

Serkunet

Mostly traditional stuff c: I'm in the process of designing a tattoo for my friend, then I have to do some character designs for a comic my other friend is working on, then there's also my own short film for school xD Lots of stuff to do!
And yep, I'm in the process of sorting through all my images.

Honestly I don't want to do it now, cause I'd just be doing it for the gold really, if I were to make a really nice character I'd keep it for myself XP
I much rather draw for this shop for little gold, cause I really love drawing these simple fanart stuff XD

Oh! Very nice!
Will it be a big tattoo?
Is the comic for sale, you guys going for or like an online webcomic thing?
You weren't kidding! Lots of art projects =D
