I feel you.

Personally when I make an avatar it's usually something I believe looks good (there are rare occasions when I just get frustrated inbetween and throw some shit together randomly, or save a partly finished avatar just so I can preview how a certain item in shops would look combined with my work-in-progress) and then I don't need other people to tell me it's not nearly as good as I thought. If I didn't enjoy my style, I wouldn't be wearing it in the first place ^^

Hugs all around for the frustrated avatar making people!
XD

Btw, I really love your current avi. The outfit is super cute.

I feel frustrated a lot less here than my other avatar customization experiences because the layering is so convenient. Although, it's sometimes a bummer that you need multiples of an item to equip more than one pose.
I expected it to be difficult for me to obtain old items with the small user base, I thought the economy would be controlled by a couple of people or something. But it isn't like that at all. I'm reasonably happy with my pace of acquiring items, and I'm enjoying myself trying to slowly get familiar with them, and playing around with the ones I have.

...this ended up a ramble about nothing particular to do with avatar customization, but well.

Thank you ^^ *hugs back*
I love how you manage to be naked yet aren't really revealing anything. Wolf fur even looks like you're wearing a thong.

And 67 is a prime again. *notes points*

[daikokunyo]

That was wolf fur? I totally thought it was a thongumajig

Yay, a point! *hugs the point furiously and blows steam breath on it*

[Death by Mirrors]

Nah, the base modding items don't always perfectly line up with each other, so you have gaps (that are normally covered under clothing)

[daikokunyo]

Ahhh

*goes off to the compliment war thread to compliment Kad on her cleverness*

[Kaderin Triste]

Lol. To be honest, I didn't really plan the "thong gap". I just didn't actually realize that we had an item that would cover the gap.
XD
It was just basically me being too lazy to actually plan an avatar. (Literally just removed clothing items and switched legs)

[Death by Mirrors]

Haha, but as you see, sometimes even laziness can net you admirers ^^

[Kaderin Triste]

*waves hand gracefully, like a queen*
Thank you! Thank you all, this is such an honor.

Haha...the perks of laziness...

Or when it seems like the same people always win.
But if there's a really good theme, I will usually at least start working on an avi.

Good luck! I hope you do really well!

It all depends on the judges style, for my first two years here I never won a contest even if i entered them all. It drove me nuts but Galla and I have a similar enough preference that we can agree on things. Most avi contests are judged by two people so we don't just pick our favorites cause you all like a certain style of avi.

My favorite number is actually 16, even though it's not very prime at all

[tsukiko]

mine's 19, but idk if that's prime or not xD

[Tiva]

It is a prime, i had to go check the first post cause I was super tired and not sure.

[tsukiko]

WEWT! my favorite number is prime! *tucks that useless info into the back of my mind*
