She knows how to interact with fans, at least. I kinda get the feeling she's one of those actors who has a character she plays for the public.

Also, thanks Glitch, for one of the borders! I just been a bit busy lately to post a whole lot. ^-^ |
I like Felicia Day, though I have not ever met her in person.
|
The closest I have been to meeting a famous person. . .
The guy who plays Sam in lord of the rings was at a convention and we didn't want to pay money to go meet him xD so my bf did a drive by cellphone photo that is pretty much too blurry to even tell. And I stayed the same hotel as bill nye ouo |
I... um... >.> I worked in Hollywood for a couple years. I've worked with Tim Russ, Walter Koenig, Robert Picardo, and Grant Imahara. (Walter likes to play up the dirty old man angle, but he's a sweetheart. Grant is a really nice guy.) I've met Vic Mignogna on a couple different occasions. (Also a nice guy.) I was in the building while the Red Hot Chili Peppers were recording one of their albums, although I didn't get to meet any of them. My wife's met Scott Adsit (Baymax's voice actor) and got him to record a message in-character to our son. We got one from Grant too. She's also good friends with Ash Paulsen.
|
OH I guess I have also met Vic Mignogna, that guy gets around. XD
|
This is gonna be completely off-topic, but I'm amused at how easy it is to recognize a person just from their avatar.
|
I actually recognize those names, Coda. :O Very Star Trekky.
I think most people have a sort of "theme" they tend to stay within for their avatars. |
Like Toho always being a fish, or Espy always being black/silver/sometimes a third color but always with the same skin tone, or Coda always looking exactly the same even when he puts new stuff on.
Or me always having the same hair and face. Or Lucid always having the same face and skin. Illu usually wearing the same ocean and black with the same hair in the same styles. Cho usually being baseless. Obsidian and Suze usually dressed in black and purple. DK always with the same hair and face. Salone either dressed like something dumb or as a cliche. What I enjoy most is watching newbies go from the trademark didn't-even-try with their layering, into their own unique style. AC is getting a pretty cutesy-yet-complicated look, while Myst is leaning towards characters-within-scenes. |
Oh man, I remember my newbie avatars :| I had joined right in the middle of Nox, I think? and EVERYTHING was red and black. It was great, and awful in hindsight.
There are a few things in my closet that I made while trying to mimic another user's style...hm. Spoilers for each person imitated. A couple of these should be really obvious to oldbies. |

EDIT: Espy, I don't remember who some of those are, but I remember you having a couple of those avatars. |
Not just facial features, either. It's interesting how many users always use the same skin tones regardless of how nice they look with their outfit. And, to a lesser degree, the same gets done with hair colors. Lots of our users stay within a particular range of hair colors.
|
I almost always use blue/green hair, some variety of skin replacement overlay, the eyes from Ira, and something from Jellyfisher. (My current skin is three Jellyfishers.)
So, yeah, those things are definitely true for me, lol. |
By the way, Galla, I haven't ALWAYS looked the same. You forget the time I was in a white mage outfit for a couple months. (Same hair and face though.)
|
I specifically use the 2nd lightest n. brown for my skin, with Bella the Cow, Eye Heart Tattoo x4, Tribal Cheek Tattoo x4, Caffeine, Small Gloves layered under Hand of Adam, one eye teal and the other dawn, the front of my hair either orange red or coral red, and the back of my hair either coral sunrise, blonde, or lightest n. brown.
My avi base is around 30 items before clothes get put on, lol. Coda, take your white mage and go sit in the corner. |
XD i feel so racially profiled here!
|
I've met... a lot of Transformers voice actors, Vic Mignogna (There's a story here on how I unintentionally traumatized him, and it's a sfw story, just under a spoiler for length. I was young, and didn't know better.), Travis Willingham, and several other voice actors who worked on Fullmetal Alchemist. It goes hand in hand with me doing conventions. I honestly prefer Transformers conventions to anime conventions anymore, because I've gotten older and the anime crowd hasn't.
When I'm not making tributes to my favorite Transformers, being totally random and putting stuff together just for the lulz, or trying to cosplay as someone, I tend to make my avatar look like me as much as I can ('s part of why I want longer skirts for the avs!). My IRL wardrobe has a lot of black, and blue, in it, but I favor a long brown skirt for when I do wear skirts, though I also have an identical black one. |
I still don't understand why Vic
|
He was the only voice actor we could get for our convention in Boise Idaho, so he started coming back every year. So I think every fan person in Boise has met him >.>;
But in other news, I like how you left me out of your recognition because Glinter has no style :D you could just say "ugly avatars" XD |
Quote:
|
better left out than to be sussed out in such a way~ -covers self- i feel so exposed!
|
I know alllll about the things you wear, cho!
Glinter, your style is pretty recognizable, but it doesn't have the same standard pieces as a lot of the ones I listed do. You're usually heavily themed around 2-3 items with an imbalance in the arms or around the legs. |
Yes my ability to make nice avatars went out the window sometime around the time I turned 25.
|
i never had that skill X''D (totally not why i do baseless, not at all, nope)
|
...You know, I just need to make a habit out of NOT drinking anything while I read anything that could potentially be hilarious.
|
Usually a safe idea. :P
|
See, I have two modes when it comes to food -- "I haven't eaten for 22 hours and I'm not hungry I THINK" and -stuffing face with every edible thing within arm's reach-
|
...lol. Okay, in that case, perhaps there's no avoiding it.
|
there is a non-stuffing option????!?!?!!!??
|
...I had completely forgotten about my previous post, and my brain had SEVERE ISSUES trying to parse what you just said, Cho xD
|
Same here ouo
|
XD then i have done my job!
|
Choco making trouble again? :3
|
what do you mean, 'again'? XD i am in a perpetual state of trouble causeing
|
I solemnly swear Chocobo is up to no good! Then again, so am I! XD

Shut your trap Galla, I copied (well tried to) Espy's wolfy avatar from a couple weeks ago and my skin is different. :U
I've been thinking of changing but I actually really liked how this one turned out. but yeah most of the time I don't even have to look at names I just recognize everyone by their style. |
-hands out pepper flavored gum and stripped salt shakers- waaaah, i am such a proud papa!
