@ anyone,,
What’s your favourite scent?

I love vanilla everything. I am also partial to mum's sunday roast dinner whilst cooking.. salivating like crazy...

to anyone,
what colour would you dye your hair?

Would love to re-dye my hair black with red stripes (aka the Vampy hair) again but I dont know if my job would approve.. plus it grows out so fast Dx

To anyone

What to you is the most funny reason for a ban you have given someone or seen?

Not to be a stick in the mud but.. pretty much all bans are for serious things. Whatever a user did to incur a ban was probably the opposite of funny. :X I dont think there will be any funny ones.. I definitely remember some serious ones though..

With thousands of animals and designs being created, do you guys ever run into the problem of originality ? You can only think of X amount of themes and color schemes. How do you get over the speed bump ? Thank you for your time ^^

Originally can be brutal sometimes. There are times I have a really good idea and remember that someone else did the same thing five years back or halfway through an outcome and it'll start looking oddly familiar so I have search through the archives to make sure I'm not too close to anything.

My way of getting around blocks is to either find a nice color palette and playing around until I get something I like, brainstorming with friends and family (my dad gives some pretty good ideas but a lot of the time they're really weird, like 'cleaning supplies'.) or just browsing the internet for cool/inspirational things. There's also times where I'm going for a theme and half way through the theme evolves, such as making musical instruments and then realizing it kind of looks like a natural coat. Sometimes I repurpose failed litters/outcomes with features/colors I like, which is handy if I'm really low on ideas.

Also random bursts of inspiration are really helpful but unreliable.

Are Avian and Totoro real animals? (my apologies if this has been asked before)

Totoro was in fact Tess' pet Cockatiel in real life. That's where the pictures on the current Easter page come from, along with others! (: Tess no longer owns Totoro, unfortunately.
