Don't worry <3 take your time!
I find that listening to music gives me lots of ideas, but then again, it mostly ends with someone getting hurt or something in roles XDD

[TheFabulousHorse]

No music right now.. I'm also watching Supernatural XD

[ShadowStarFang]

XDDD well then. *pats head and goes to quote thing. In the morning*

[ShadowStarFang]

Alrighty guys!!! Here is a HUGE update coming <3

WEllllllllllllll, to put it simple, FRONT IS GETTING MAJOR UPDATE <3333 yay! =D finally have time to do it again, so I was like: let's do this!

So, here is what is planned on getting updated

1. Introduction!
   Yes, the wonderful intro! I WANT ideas from you guys! <3 I want it to be more than just discribing the map, as that is what the map is for! So, here is the 'Competition.'
   I want you to post how you would descirbe GCR to others! It can be about anything related to GCR! <3 I'm mainly looking for what we would use to, sort of say, 'Advertise' it! <3
   
2. Are you artsy? Want something to do?
   You are welcome to create some advertising banners if you want, or just art related to GCR <3 I'm thinkin of making one of the reserved for banners! question is which one... will post a poll! Credit will be given to the artists <3 *yes I can draw, but busy and I have no ideas for what to draw for it XD* *totally did not just think of this while typing <3*
   
3. Rules! Rules may or may not get updated<3 who knows lol
   
4. Horse facts!
   A few may be outdated, plus, it is starting to get super, super messy!! I am going to try to organize them and make it more accurate! Anything on there will be checked <3
   
5. Another new idea.... haha <3
   Do we want a post just for tack? Like, the different tack, equipment and etc for horses, or no? *totally just came up wth it*
   
6. Forms?
   Are the forms good? or are they too long? too short perhaps? *oh, hope not too short, dear me XD*
   
7. Characters!!!!
   Ah, the good ol' *messy* character post.... gosh it needs help haha.
   *instantly dies a bit when I realize I do have it organized*
   Maybe the horses will just recieve numbers or??? oh gosh... *sighs*
   alright, this goes with stall places and cabins. It's all just a real big... Mess. To put it lightly. I would love ideas of how to organize this better, keep track of who is who *biggest problem* and, of course, a biggie, who is still active, needs removing and needs adding! This is probably the hardest part lol
   
8. Rnach Map
   Good enough for me XD
   Just need help with the cabins list.... Gotta add OPEN slots in ones accepting and find a way to remember who is who... *sighs* this shall be the end of me XD
   
9. Trail post
   Eh, just gotta get names updated, right? and wait for more to vote on the pole... haha...
   *Takes a step back to Ranch Map*
   Pictures. which pictures need updating.. and possibly a few more added... like cabins... and... showers maybe... idk, Stalls for sure.just listing here. Post what you think!
   *Ahem* moving on...
   
10. Member guide
    I like it, so it's a keep haha.
    just gotta get people on there. I've stopped caring about usernames, as with the member guide I'm linking you so I can find the chracters and go to the member list and click it, finding out the current information for them <3 probably gonna remove the nicknames... then I'll have to edit the form slightly... to remove user nickname... ah well, that'll be easy fix, I think.
    
11. I'll just stick with Page 1 only for now! XD don't want to make everything go reeling at the same time! it'll be like a death wish lol <3 that's all! please comment on what you think!
    
    ALSO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Please say which of the above you are giving ideas/answering if it's specific to something. It'll help me keep track <3 *put numbers for easy listing <33333*

Thank you all! love you guys <333

Edit, people's takes on this so far <3:

Okay! Time to throw my views in on this! Cx

5 - I really like the idea of 5, especially if we just have people grazing our front.

and for
1 - For the introduction, maybe we could do something like "reviews" from us users (or our characters.) How you see when you're shopping online and see a couple of reviews/pieces from main reviews. "GCR is a place for everyone, beginners, intermediate, and advanced. Love it." if you get it x'D

@runningrace ;; omg yes. Or even a separate little area for a "reviews" from Characters xD jayy would love to insert his option.

I JUST GOT AN IDEA!!! =DDD
for 7
I just got the idea of doing
Name First, Last (nickname)-age gender: Animals owned rper
So, basically, I just add the nickname/barn name in the () and I will keep it straight and so will people just sneaking a peak at the front! =DD yay!!! *dances around* what do you guys think of this? =D

[xXLuciferXx]

I'm sorry, I have no muse. I've been trying to figure out a way to reply but I have nothing. x.x

I have no muse to reply either o.o"" so you're not alone xD

[ShadowStarFang]

haha. I'm updating the front <333
I'm actually doing it XDD


anyways... I gotta ask who wants a cabin that doesn't have one currently lol

[xXLuciferXx]

*Rolls in here for OOC chat*

Things that grind my gears;; People selling geldings for alot of money and they aren't that good to ride. But when you tell them the price is a bit too high they just go, "WELL HE HAS PAPERS AND HE'S REGISTERED" Um, cool nice he's gelded, Not really anything bonus TBH. xD Idk maybe it's just me.

[ShadowStarFang]

If people are selling them as higher because they have papers, no. XD not worth it haha. paid a nice amount for my polish mare and her papers, but then again she is old XD
XD

[evixtus]

XD I know the pain of dealing with geldings who are way too overpriced, not even green-broke, and he's going for a lot of money because he's papered and his breeding. His breeding I can somewhat understand, but if he had been a stud, then yeah he could go for that amount, because some people might not even want to train him, and just use him for breeding. I got my gelding for about $5,000, but that was only because he was well broke and a retired show-jumper. He had made it all the way to Nationals, so he could've gone for a lot more money, but he didn't, which is how I ended up with him. <3

[xXLuciferXx]

xD I don't own a horse so I have no paper stories. Other than when I was looking at a horse I loved he was over priced. He had sway-back that got 110% worse and that's why I don't ride him anymore because I'm pretty heavy, He's got moon blindness{?} in both eyes, and he's 16 {Kinda middle aged} with a bitter personality from time to time. He was priced at like $1,600 for me meaning he was higher priced to everyone else... xD And I pointed this all out to my trainer and she was like "He's double registered."

Some people just need to not. xD

@Evixtus;; Awww <3 c: Good deal ^-^
