Update on Whirled Avatar

(5/5/11 Edit: New previews! Adult and Fawn, side-by-side, and some of the config choices on the adult. :])

Original post: http://endlessforest.org/community/whirled-fans-my-latest-project-i-think-you039ll

I've just received word that both May and June slots in the Club Whirled giveaways have already been taken. This means the TEF avatar I had planned to release in June, will instead be releasing in July.

In the meantime, I'm planning on doing a Fawn avatar as well. That won't be Club Whirled - meaning it'll be available in the shops as soon as it's ready.

I have a slight dilemma now, however: I promised you a free avatar, but I'm not sure how Three Rings will enjoy seeing me give away Club Whirled items... If I create a Fawn with all the same actions/emotes/config options, would you settle for that instead? Or would you rather have the adult deer?

Before you answer, I'd like to reassure you that if you were planning on using the "template" I mentioned in the previous post to create your own deer, you will still be able to do that. The template will still be an adult deer, and will still be available to everyone, Club Whirled or not. :]

Thoughts? Oh, and I just wanted to say thank you for all the kind words in the previous thread! I'm glad you like the avatar. Smiling

I'll be suit enough, at least, I'm not so bad artist and I can create my own avatar, just don't have much time now.
So I would love to use the template to see how all this stuff works.
Thank you.

That's okay with me, and in this case I have no choice but to buy some bars!
Teehee, it will be worthwhile though <3 I hope that the release goes well 8)

(I haven't painted any Fawn pelts or masks yet, so nothing to show there yet)


The Adult will be given free to Club Whirled members for the month of July. The Fawn will be for sale in the Whirled shop, priced in Bars (yet to determine the exact amount). But TEF players who tell me their Whirled permaname here (or in the previous thread) will get a Fawn sent to them absolutely free. Smiling

I am so amazingly impressed

I am so amazingly impressed by this. You've put so much work into these avatars Moogie, and giving members here such a great gift is so very kind of you. Keep up the awesome, Moogie! 8D

Is it possible to get the Adult Deer, with bars, if you're not in Club Whirled?
Or does that mean you need to be a member of Club Whirled to get it :v

@Starling, it's technically

@Starling, it's technically possible to buy it with Bars, but the price is set extremely high (company rules, not mine) in order to discourage straight purchases. You can spend 1000 Bars ($100 worth) to buy it that way, but getting a single month of Club Whirled is far, far cheaper. x]

For example, here's the previous Club Whirled avatar I made, back in February. http://www.whirled.com/#shop-l_5_95766

Despite its price, three people actually purchased it that way. I'm convinced they must be insanely rich to do something so incredibly crazy.

But, the good news is that when I release the template later on, you'll be able to get that for just a few Bars, and can open it up in Flash yourself and make your own custom version, either to sell to people or just for personal use. I'm going to try and make the file as self-explanatory as possible and leave helpful notes for editors.

I should probably do a Fawn base too, but I'm not sure how many people would be interested in that...

Oh yeah! I remember seeing

Oh yeah! I remember seeing that avatar and was totally gutted realizing I couldn't buy it, haha.
I'll probably join Club Whirled for that month, then c:

@Starling; I would love if I did an art-for-bars thing?
