hm... maybe the halo and wings are a bit too much? *takes them off*

LOL That's a pretty tight avi in progress. What are you wanting to add on it, though?

I saw it before the wings and halo
lol

(i was thinkin maybe halo... or something on the base.. or background)

Ah lol

Been doing a lot of experimenting with layering on my avi cause it's just so-- lakjsdkfh

Will you be using that avi-in-progress or you just showing it off? lol

uuh....
I /may/ use it but i really don't want to change my phoenix avi ...

Throw it up on your mule... or make a mule and throw that avi up. OnO

That, or just save it and throw it in a folder with avis you could use in the future. Make some kind of file where it tells you what kind of items you used in what layer and just reference it off from there.

EDIT: Took off the shoulder guards and cloak for a more modern feel. I'll try working on a fantasy/modern avi sometime in the near future.

the tealy tattoos throw it off for me
honestly
And all three of my mules are prettified lol
*the last of mizzy's mules*

Hiya Xun, what is going on this week, whatever I am glad it is over for you! I like your avi, where did you get the hat? the teal tats don't quite go, maybe there is something else that might work but if not go with the flow, I tend to not be a matchy person so who am I to talk.

Hey Miz that is such a beautiful avatar, really strong in the clockwork force. *admires*

lovely new look uma ^.^

Uma, you are GORGEOUS. *_*

@Mizeria: Dang, that mule be lookin' fine-- lkjsklhf LIES I bet you have more.

@Uma: Today's technically the last day for my week and tonight, I have a Christmas party to get to. Jumped on to see what was going on in the world. The fedora hat is a new common ;u; *has been craving it for so long*

I removed the tats, but now I feel beyond white. Maybe if there was some kind of arm band? But that's just me.

Also-- I won't be on this coming week. My family and I are headed to Canada to visit relatives. ;u;b So I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year~

How come I thought this is Christmassy, LOL.

You look more halloween ish to me.....unless you where going for ghost of christmas future vibe.

I like the creepy feel to your avatar, but it is a pretty long stretch to be Christmas-y. XP

It turned out more Christmas Spirit thing indeed, haha. xD

Thank you Sadrain and Cora!

Xun you are going to be missed, have a great Christmas and New Year!!! Come back soon!!!

I saw the Christmas spirit in Sadrain's avi right away, lol, that is a great idea! XD

Gosh we had to take our friends to the Port today so they could go on their cruise and it took us about 4 hours to do that then we came home and I sewed a dress for my doll which took all freaking day since it was the first dress I ever sewed and I had to read a book to figure out how to do it. o_O I cooked a casserole too for dinner. And I have been coughing all day too. I am about to drop. I am heading off to bed so I don't undue my healing progress. I think I did too much. x_x

Woo! New avatar! :D
It may not be Christmas themed, but I am baseless AND skinless! 8D

I see you!
Also I have no idea what all that fancy pants stuff means!
(wow the pixels are pretty here)

Hata! *tackle hugs*
Yisss, Tris pixels are fabulous! <3

Being baseless means choosing the baseless option when selecting a base in the avatar editor. Being skinless means to not use any item skin(s) at all, but still looking like you are. :D

You are too skilled. xD

Not really. It was frickin hard to get 'er done. x.x I don't even know how I got here, my avatar just evolved to its current appearance over the past month. XD

More Christmas feels here now. <3

I suck at theme avatars. Whatever I start working on, by the time I'm done in a few weeks, it's totally different than what I started with, barring one or two items that I've managed to keep the same. XD

I wanted to do a Christmasy avatar, but I just haven't had the time. I can get on for a few minutes a few times a day, but never long enough to actually sit and make a nice-looking avatar. I did make a very belated rainbow avatar though!

I second this post. :p-innocent:

Hello Hatake Ayumi! You are lovely, nice to meet you, I am Uma. Actually I think all Tris avi's are lovely, the base is really well done and hard to make look unpleasant. :) I hope to see you again. I really like that jellyfish thingy you are wearing around the waist, such an awesome item!

Cora and Arikana, wow, really nice use of items and balance, you both flow so well. That is not to say everyone else does not flow but that is what I noticed about you.

Sadrain you are so ethereal and wispy, like snow on light! One thing though about that dress, it just does not lend itself to belts and corsets, did you notice that? It is really too bad. But it sure does make for a beautifully airy look as you have done.

Lucid I adore your rainbow and oh oh oh what is that blue hair item? I really feel a need to imitate your lighter blue on darker blue look but maybe it would not look as good without the red and purple and green colors surrounding, I am not sure, anyhow the totality is really amazing.

Thank you Lauv dear and while I am scattering compliments like stars across the firmament let me add my admiration of your devilish self to my litany here! Where did you get the little white speckles??? And the golden clasp in the middle? Very nice adornments.

Well I am still suffering the dregs of my bronchitis. Really it is absolutely horrid how long this sickness lingers, I am pretty irritated at it. I think it has been about 3 weeks now and it was 1 week on antibiotics too. Anyhow I had a nice Holiday and I hope you all did too whatever you celebrate. :)

tl;dr? Everyone looks great, hope your holiday was a good one! XD

The dark blue hair is Riley's hair. I really enjoy making avatars with dark blue, light blue, and white in them, though a dark blue, light blue, dark purple, and light purple would be a fun color scheme to try.

I really love the dusty silver you have in your avatar. I think it turned out beautiful. Sometimes I wish I could dress as well in real life as we do our avatars.

So I really suck at rainbow and tried for a while but gave up. Anyone else want to offer me a challenge of sorts?

Thank you, Uma! You're right about belts and sashes, but oh well, it still looks quite gorgeous. Glad you like the overall avatar. :)

Hi Lucid, yes, I would LOVE to dress in RL as I do with my avatar, wow, wings. *dies* I wish. So I see you changed, what is that net thing? My word I think I need to collect older items.

Hi Kali, how about something cheerful? Hehe. ^_^ Hmmm...that is not very specific, I'm sorry. Ok I admit I am not good with challenges. I'll let someone else set you a nice color challenge. How are you doing? Did you have a nice holiday?

I do like it Sadrain, very much. Actually as you can see, Lucid managed to pair the dress with something over it and I too did find a corset that goes over it and am creating an avi now with that dress. However, I am not sure I will stay in it for long, I am just doing it for the sake of curiosity. I will no doubt revert to one of my Dramatis Personae wig outfits within a day or so. I am going to change soon but I wish I had some nice wings to go with what I am making. Going to look in the MP. So your big day is tomorrow, right? Are you going to make a thread? What are you going to wear? XD

I'll do cheerful, as for colors just shoot me some random ones and I'll do my best to make them work. But I can wait if you'd rather. I'm at work today.

And I'm doing good. My holiday were good as well.

How were yours?

Also I do apologize for not posting in here in a while. I've been a bit busy. I've also lacked all avie inspiration.

why thankies, uma-chan <3
these speckles are from fenrir's companion and the belt is from the pandora's set. <3 :'D

Kali - Well if you don't like it you can wait for someone else but blue and silver and bits of blushy rose - not sure of the color. And my holiday was really nice! I got some great presents and am getting better though still lingering sick. Don't worry about coming by here, just pop on by when you feel like it. ^_^

Beautifully textured Lauv, I just really love what you have done. I am quite fond of black and red with gold accents. I would do it often but I would not think to use that nice cream you added in there with the Kaze item. The cream and the white sparkles take it up a notch. How long have you been on Tris?

I used to always create red and black with gold accents for my avi, but then I got sick of it and tried to use other color themes~

I've been here for almost two years now ^^

Wow Lauv, you are lucky (like the others) that you got here early. I sure do wish I had. I got here because of Ducky. I heard him talk about Tris over at Zantarni and I was intrigued by what he said. So I just tripped on over here and was instantly enamored of the avatars. That was in May I think when I joined. Did you know I won a contest here for a sonnet I wrote about Trispee avatars? Hehehe, funny to think back on that now!!

Oh! Really? wow. I've never really checked who won in that contest~ but super belated congrats :'D
I actually heard about this when it started, but I just didn't want to get in here because of a bad experience from avi sites (e.g. gaia)

That challenge actually sounds really fun. I'll work on it once I'm done at work!

Great Kali, I can't wait to see what you do with it! XD

Ah, Gaia, yes. Well Lauv, I am glad that you did manage to come to Tris, that is good. ^_^ Gaia can be traumatic, I know...I was a mod there for 5 years, I saw it all. But I won't defend the place.

WOW, you "were" a mod for 5 years? Dang. That's a long time!

The net is actually a brand new common from the bohemian set. Bohemian Shawl or something like that. I just really love all the new bohemian items. *U* They're very pretty and fit my style fairly well.

Ooooh I'll have to compliment whoever made that set then!! I looked it over but I must have missed that pretty item, thank you Lucid. All of the artists here are so creative, I'm blown away. I do like your asymmetrical look and that wondrous fishy tail coming off under the dress, hehe, I would never have thought to do that. Now that I got my "put a corset on the jellyfish dress" energy out I can move on to something different. Maybe I'll look into the new commons more carefully.

Lauv I was a mod from 2005-2010 then stepped down to forum assistant and I actually still am doing that there. I stepped down when I got married because it was just taking too much of my time away from my husband. It's hard for me as it is to get around to the places that I like to post at and just chat with people.

Well I had to go back to the doctor today, I was not really getting better. Now I am on different antibiotics and also on steroids. I hope this does the trick. Bronchitis is not good. I'm going to take the day off tomorrow and rest up I think.
