@hachi: haha right it was like every club ... i wanted to join a dance club but every single one u had to audition for and half of the ppl had been dancing their whole lives / went to competitions ... felt like nothing was beginner friendly there

ahahha anime art club!! honestly that sounds Extremely fun and probably like a supportive carefree art space??
also i feel like ur style isn't super anime-y ?

haha no pressure!!! i'd wanna see it if u wanna post it tho
where do find drawing prompts like that from?? like twitter / ig or ?

I joined a lot of avatar sites, but the ones I was active on for any amount of time were Gaia(found from a friend on RuneScape), Solia(for a bit before I found Ernya), Ernya, Roliana(for a bit), Trisphee, MyRufflesRPGWorld(it was a less active site with monkey avatars), Terrasus(didn't end well from what I remember), KofK, Syndrone, Crysandrea, and Sapherna

I thought there was something else going on with ernya just before it closed too, but I can't remember what it was. The way its closing was handled was quite poor though, imo.

I was on staff at Ernya when it closed and they didn't even tell us. It was a mess.

@xvz: i rarely post so it's not often i buy new commons.
i normally keep the same avatar for 2-5 months as i am not particularly active.

yeah i thought it would be a neat idea.
as i never had drawn plants and i usually look at my feed to see the least used theme/color.

oh i'm so sorry to hear abt ernya :-( that's so jarring - i'd be super sad to see it a community close so suddenly, there's no like emotional prep or closure ...

i think hearing about that is a good reminder for me to donate to voltra when i can ... !
when i was younger on avi sites i didn't really have income i could spend but now that i do i'd want to do what i can for spaces i care about!

I hate how unmoderated some avatar sites are. Other than that, my experiences have mostly been positive.

Silence, the White Mage is now speaking.


fave thing: dress up with huge amount of variety + awesome people
least fave: trying to get the layering to work as i want LOL + decidedly less awesome people >__>

I agree with Vixen. Sometimes the layering is so awkward, but I get why they have the layering system that they have.

For favorite things:
-It was always nice when an avatar site had a dream avi maker
-Marketplaces on bigger avi sites are nice
-I liked Ernya events where you could find currency under avatars when lurking
-Basic stuff like making avis, posting, and events are always fun of course
-I liked the bug hunting on Crysandrea and Sapherna
-The dye system on Terrasus and Syndrone was great

And since layering was mentioned, sites where you could move items to whatever layer you wanted were fun

moody true the commons can add up if u get multiple at once !
i feel like u usually have the bats on when i see u :3

sounds like you're really trying to push urself to try new things / build on skills!!
hmm i wonder if my color palettes are consistent or not ...

Favorite thing about avatar sites is the quality of the avatars (variety of items, layering, etc.) and the people I get to meet on them.

Least favorite things are monotony (i.e., same schematics for events, lack of release of features/items) and lack of discipline on userbase, regardless of title. I've heard horror stories of some people getting away with things that shouldn't be, and I steered clear away from those environments.

@0v7: unmoderated sites are just chaos and drama waiting to happen.

@vixen: & @sunny: LOL. Oh, I feel ya on that one! There's only so much a person -or team- can think through that though when they're trying to put a system like that together. It's probably why some of the layering gets so weird sometimes.
