Hello!

I am very new to the site and, also, very clueless on some things, as you can see.
I have noticed a great amount of users have picture messages as their signatures and I am really wanting to do it, too. I tried it once following this which only ended up with not only a white background, but absolutely huge in size.
Is the transparency and and the size only determined in the program you use to make your picture in? Or am I doing something wrong considering the the steps of the tutorial in my link?

I feel stupid asking this.
But thank you for your time.

EDIT: Also, the program I used for the picture my first time was MS Paint if that changes anything.

Dusting off the papyrus

It seems my notebook had been misplaced. I have only now rediscovered it's whereabouts, strangely enough buried in the deermuda triangle. I can only assume the dusks are behind this.

Reports are that Ryuu had returned some time ago to the forest. Regrettably I missed his return. I'll seek him out soon enough.

It feels as though I've been in a sort of coma these past few months. There's been little to report and even less to reflect on. I will not bore myself with mundane details of wasted time and stagnation.

Another year

And so ends another year. It's strange, but this forest has begun to grow on me. Perhaps it helps clear the mind when the sun goes down here. There's a certain savorable peace to be enjoyed, now that the festivities are presumably over with. I still recall the madness of the past year or two, though these things have faded away into no more than distant memories.
Now it is only the future one can look forward to.

Titles are so formal

A more interesting day to say the least. Spent some time with Ryuu. It's frustrating to see him so out of it. Decided to try to make things like the old days in a way by cracking out the sea salt ice cream.
At some point Loki and Skylar became a point to focus on, though the final resolve was to send some dusks to monitor them.

Think carefully about that offer Ryuu. Further options exist, though I'll wait on your first decision.

Timekilling

Kept an eye on those two through most of the evening. It doesn't appear as though there's any touble or manipulation going on. Even I can only watch two others doing next to nothing for so long. Ryuu, there doesn't seem to be anything to worry about, at least for the moment.

A slow awakening

To whom does this tiny creature belong to?
Regardless of it's unseen parents... I can't help but sit here and watch over it. This tiny fawn in the sunlight. There's such a light in this fawns heart, much like I've seen in a select few others. It'll be tough to get up and leave in a moment. I suppose that makes it easier to stop and attempt a new chapter in these old archives.

A lot has taken place in the past few days. I shall have to remember to make notation of them at some near future point. To put it all into a nutshell however, I've learned of something more than a little interesting. As it would turn out, it is easy for the heart to be expelled from the body, but the body will strive to take in a new heart if not it's own at the first possible opportunity.
I've also heard it told, that if you have no heart, you can not have friends.

Tell that to those I've found strange and uncanny bonds with.
So, if the words of those twin statues were true, I have been believing a well woven lie for a long time now. I may not be so heartless after all, but rather one of thirteen stuck with a piece of Xehanort's heart. By rejecting and expelling it, and relying on these friendships acquired in the time spent here in this forest, my own true heart may be called back.
It certainly sounds like a better plan then forcing others into darkness to become heartless for keybladers to slay, and only after millions are slain having Kingdom Hearts form yet again.
There was more of course, that they brought to light, but for now it's best left unwritten.

It seems Ryuu needs help now, so I've offered to help keep an eye on his sister and her friend. Ryuu, it's difficult to see you so conflicted. Do not allow yourself to fall too deep into your internal conflict... You don't need to become a heartless.

In the mean time, I can not help but wonder at the fate of the other nobodies. It seems as though all that remain are myself, and a much avoided Marluxia. Even he is questionable in non-existance, as we've not crossed paths in perhaps over a year now.

I'm new and I was wondering, how do you become a big deer?? I want to grow up XD

Ok, I have to apologize... My brother (twin) kidnapped me for our birthday. We were with a group of friends when I got a call from my friend Tina saying she wouldn't be able to come. I asked her why..... Well.. A good friend of ours had died.. ( I didn't even know she was in the hospital!) All I'm going to say is that a machine was breathing for her and a couple of her family members finally decided to pull the plug... She died about ten minutes later. She left behind two beautiful babies.... I don't know what to really say right now except I've been an emotional wreck.... I don't know when I will continue the rp. Her funeral is going to be set one day next week. I'm sorry guys. :'(

Hey, just wondering if anyone would like to make me a new icon.
Animated, animated, pretty, or what ever you like really. As long as it have something to do with any of my deers. Or all at once, or their names. etc

Signature creations is all so very welcome.

It's my second day playing and I kind of love this experience. The deer are all really cool and the forest is beautiful.


By the way I figured out the forest might be on single sphere. I ran in a straight line for quite sometime and came back to the same spot. I was really expecting it to be a flat layout but it's not.


Hmmmmm

PREVIOUSLY:
There was no response from the strange fawn. Orick tilted his head, wondering a moment before shifting uncertainly. He'd learned the hard way that not all the animals in these strange woods had the ability or the capacity for speech. He recalled how foolish he'd felt after trying to strike up a conversation with a bullfrog one lonely evening by the pond.

He could tell that wasn't the case with this fawn, he could tell... that he was aware of him... He saw just an instant of the shock on his own face before reluctantly returning to the darkness of his own mind. He was able to smooth out his expression, but his heart was pounding in panic and he trembled lightly. No one had ever noticed him before. He cursed himself, he should have known, this place was so different from anywhere he'd been before, everything was different.

"I... I..." He cleared his throat and tried again, "Tis awfully cold this day, mind that thou stayest warm and comfortable lest thou fall ill..." He cringed a bit a his own pathetic attempt at light conversation, too unnerved to worry about adhering to modern dialect. He didn't have much hope that it would fool the fawn, young or otherwise.
