well that's rude of your stores!

That's what I thought too! But the odds of them having the slit-pupil eyes seem kind of slim anyway.

yeah, i could see that. i use the solid black eyes, which are probably pretty common

Ah. Yeah. Those would be pretty common.

Kaderin! love the wings!

derp just realized contest deadline passed. ok i'll get that done soon

A lot of stores will order things for you if you ask them to, especially if another one of their stores carries it. They'll even call and leave a message (or text or email; varies from store to store) when it gets in. So ask if they have it at all, and they'll order it for you. They'd rather keep you as a customer, especially if you're regular! This one craft store I used to frequent did it a lot. They kept them behind customer service on a shelf and it was always things they didn't have elsewhere in the store. Often, other people wanted it too, and never asked, so when they see it, they order it too. Get enough people asking, and it becomes a regular item.

No worries, Glitch. You've got a lot of things to juggle, and we're very patient.

Alright is was super close but of all the strangers I asked to pick a winner Lee's got one more vote so Lee wins this coloring contest!

Trystan: Thanks! They are one of the daily items from this event actually.
I started checking some of the items and discovered we had gotten wings. (I had forgotten.) And I LOOOOVVVE wings!

that's pretty cool, Lee.

Michael's used to have a weird system - you could bulk order things we didn't have in the stores through a service they had, and a customer had to go into the store to have an employee place the bulk order. and then they changed their website so you can actually shop on it, and order whatever was on the site in however many quanities you need.

now, there are some people who haven't been in the store in many years, and they think you can still do bulk orders the old way or don't realise you can order items online, and that they can do it themselves.

there's also the people that don't understand the online site is a different creature than the stores. while the stores have quite a number of items that you can get online, there's also online only items as well as in-store only items.

so if a store has an ordering system like you describe, Lee, that's awesome!

and you're quite welcome, Kaderin! =)

I like how you used them! I keep looking at them and making a face cause they never work for me.

Yay! I love my prize~

congrats, Lee!

Thanks Tiva. I started with the wings and basically constructed the avi around them.

Thank you! 8D

Congratulations, you have found the spirit of item showcase.

Haha...unless I have something specific in mind for the avi, that's usually how I build them.
