Miscellaneous

I'm starting to get the hang of this site, but there are still some things that confuse me, so I was wondering if any of the users here could answer a few question for me. Firstly, do people tend to write updates on their deer in their biography post or in a new blog post? And it's in the bio post, how do you get it to show up as updated? Also, does tracking involve following someone's entire blog, or just one post and its updates? Any help here would be great appreciated!

I'm new to the community. Perhaps I could find an RP buddy on here?
Or a regular buddy.
I've been known to be adept with the English language.

Comment and talk with me, I guess? Yes, that seems like it would work.

This beautiful community offered me so many things I could create but too many plans for my low resistance to pressure and time limits.

Right now I'm in the community once a week, I post art once a month and I go to the forest once a season. I'm not very happy with that situation. I love the characters I created here for the first time. They are childish and reveal so much of my instability and yet this was the place that nailed my interest to fictional characters and art. I also love the people here. But I never seem to use the right words and always end up offending the people I admire with my joked seriousness or my acted-out childishness. I've never been good relating to people, although without the real-time conversations, that's alot less visible in virtual contact.

Everytime I close the laptop to go do something else, I remember all the gift arts I showed while they were incomplete, all the requests I promised, all the RPs started by me that I didn't answer, all the unfinished CSS, all the projects I had and it's not hard to guess what I feel about that. I'm dumb, rude and anti-social but I'm human :b

I suppose that's the very reason why I turn my backs at my plans instead of kicking away that burden, no?

I'm rambling already. I don't think many are interested, but here go my contacts; I doubt I'll teach myself organizing time in a nearby future.

MSN:
I've only used it twice so far, but I love knowing there's someone that will read me if I desperately need to share something.

I've actually created that yesterday. I haven't figured how to work with it yet. I'll often invite people from other places; if there are watchers I've met through PlaystationNetwork there will be probably pretty (im)mature stuff on the screen and heavy or just plain silly music on the speakers.

_ºº^ºº_ºº^º~
PS, excuse the poor coherence, during school time I'm constantly under a writer block. It's like my mind is wrapped in a very thick blanket. I can think through images and structure thoughts, but when I try to translate those into words and actions, it's like I'm speaking in a foreign language and pulling the strings of a puppet. I just can't remember the right words or get my body to agree with me.

I also sound grumpy like wut. Not truth.

I'm sorry to bother you all with this, I'll just use this blog as CSS tester. Nothing interesting xD

I'm sorry I keep spamming the Miscellaneous section with all my questions >>;

But it's just as the title asks: how do you get a temporary picto, before your deer actually grows up? ^^"

Well I have been trying to find a good set in game, but have been having a rough time getting spelled to even see what might look nice.

Hototo is peculiar, and I am torn as to which set would represent him finest in forest.

Hototo

Any opinions? Or clever ideas?

Once I have something chosen, would anyone be available to help me put it together?

Thank you thank you thank you thank you!

-Emily, Toya, Hototo

EDIT: Two good options! What do you think looks best? Most appealing? Most accurate? Am I just way off?

These pics are from a most awesome "Style Your Deer" flash-tool by Animals-and-all on Deviant art, shared by Quad. Thankyou!

EDIT: Alright, you all are helpful for my brainstorming. Thanks for the input, it really has made a difference.

I think I might like this option. I know the antlers aren't perfect, however, no antlers really look right. So I chose those that can carry poppies. They also represent the foreward jut and angle of his antlers. I cannot perfectly represent his appearance in this detail, but I can still represent his character. Hototo, as I mentioned, has a fondness for poppies and the color red. I was delighted to find that your suggestions led me to experiment with the crying idol mask, which I had not though of initially. I think it is all the more meaningful paired with the poppies. Here is Hototo's final design, paired with an experpt from his -=Thoughts=- which may shed light on the choices made.

Ok, so, you've been hearing about this girl in my stories/rps named Ella.

Ella... is me.

I'm Ella.

(my name sucks)

So... recently I've decided that each and every one of my characters meets me, and sometimes I can come into the forest to... do stuff. Powers. Guide them. Whatever.

Since I've been making myself appear in stories/rps, I've decided to explain to you who the girl was.

And also, I may be carrying a knife with a red ribbon following. The knife is... well... nothing really. Well, I shouldn't say nothing. A more descriptive word would be mysterious. Even though most of the time it's a knife I carry around, well.... um... you'll see.

Anyways, I'm done describing me.

What i'm planning to do is write a story for each of my characters meeting Ella.

I've already written Peirce's story, and I'll get working on Ignaciaqua's (she's so awesome I want to write her's next. Lol.).

Here are all the stories I've written so far:

Are you there? http://endlessforest.org/community/are-you-there

... That's it!

So... yeah...just wanted to let you know who this "Ella" was.

How do you upload pictures made by photoshop to comunity?

I saved my picture but when I want to upload it on photobucket it's not there.

It's so hard to work with photoshop.

I don't understand how do you guys make so beautiful pictures with it

I did want to tell you guys that I will be graduating on May 14th. 7 years finally under my belt, haha!

I'll be graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Geology (minoring in Composite Science, which is a combination of Biology, Chemistry, and Physics). I will still be here in town until July or so since I have one more class I have to take (Calculus) and then I intend to move to Texas maybe in August or September. I will be putting in job applications in Austin, Houston, and San Antonio, and will be looking for a job in environmental science or hydrogeology.

It took me a really long time to understand that graduating is a great achievement even if you take 7 years to graduate. I had felt ashamed that I took so long, but not only did I change my major twice, I was also working for six years, so it's understandable. I'm glad to finally get done, get out into the real world, and live my dream job.
