What sort of program do you use to Crop Out a character you bought from a sheet adopt? Why that program and do you have any tips?
Well, I just save the image of the character sheet adopt, right click it, choose edit with GIMP, then use the crop tool, crop it out, erase anything around your character that isn't part of your character, then export it as a .png file, and done! XD
So, GIMP.
I use GIMP because it's a free art program and it's the only one I have other than MS Paint and it's better than MS Paint too. XD

how do you feel when buying other people sona?
Hmm...I've bought people's ex-fursonas...at least...1 time that I know of. XD Nico was Lavapony's fursona at one time, but then he became just a character and then she sold him. Since he was a dreamie, I didn't feel awkward about it. XD
However, when I got Tripp for free, that was...wow! I mean, I did apply for her when she was giving her away, but I never expected to get her. 0_0
I had always thought that she was like a fursona to Raven Feather, so it felt super awkward when she gifted her to me because I knew I was taking on someone who had been precious to her at one time.
Whenever I end up obtaining someone fursona, I always feel a need to prove how much I use and love them, so it sorta adds extra pressure to make sure to use them. XD

Speaking of Tripp, I finally finished making that traditional headshot I drew of her into a digital picture! :3

art by me
I might need to clean it up a bit though. XD

@ki-neko animura ~ Congrats on getting your dream character! Miko is a pretty awesome character! Also, happy birthday! :3

@Aniki ~ Congrats on that gorgeous piece of art of Yamir! :3 Also, congrats on the new characters! :3

@KiPotato ~ Oooh! Very nice art! Congrats! :3

@parapluie ~ I love the art you made of your fursona Rain! :3

Pick 5 Characters, order them 1-5! (Just names are fine!)
1. Dean Orsini
2. Danielle "Dancer" Tanzer
3. Vasco Diego Jones
4. Riverjack
5. Tanith Drake

Characters 1 and 3 are in an argument about sharks, which one is the most logical whilst arguing?
Probably Vasco, although why Dean or Vasco would ever get into an argument about sharks, I'll probably never know. XD

Character 5 went swimsuit shopping, what did they get?
A one piece bathing suit, something that's pretty and flatters her body type, yet still conceals her chubbiness.

all of Characters are at the beach, who's doing what?
Dean it's more likely he'd just be lounging out on a towel sleeping than doing anything sporty. XD

Dancer...hmm...I think she could be playing beach volleyball or just playing in the water.

Vasco would likely be just walking around the beach or writing in his writing journal because he's just got some inspiration for a story.

Riverjack would most likely either also playing beach volleyball or swimming in the water or perhaps even surfing. XD

Tanith...would probably be reading a book or making a sandcastle or picking up cool rocks and shells that she finds on the beach.

Character 4 is on vacation, they bump into character 2! What happens?

Hmm....Riverjack and Dancer...no idea. XD Honestly, I never really thought about it because I have Riverjack set in a more medieval world for some reason (even though he's wearing modern clothes XD ) and Dancer is in a more modern one. XD But for argument's sake, I'd say more than likely they'd just talk for a bit, maybe jog together or something? XD

@Nightsouls ~ Probably Magnus because he's just adorable. ♥ Also I adore his unicorn horn and pretty wings and his gorgeous, sparkling mane. ♥

What sort of program do you use to Crop Out a character you bought from a sheet adopt? Why that program and do you have any tips?
I used the Pixlr Editor online. I'm not really sure why I use that program..? Probably because it's so much easier to use and it's the only editing software that I don't have to download onto my laptop?

Have you ever gone back to an old character and try to write for them again? If so, how easy or difficult was it for you to go back to the mindset you had when you first wrote about them?
Yes, I have! It was actually pretty easy for me to go back and write about them again. Not sure why, but I definitely left their old story/background information for a very long time and during that time I was putting bits and pieces together to create a full, new background for that character. I had more time to think about it and I created a much better history for that character.

What character was the hardest for you to get back into the mindset of writing for?
Probably my second red-panda character. I have two red-panda characters and they're both witches & wizards. Since they both had the same "career and interests," it was hard to not make the second character like the first one.

What do you enjoy most when you're developing characters?
I enjoy making up their names! I love scrolling through different names in different languages, and it fascinates me.
I don't really know...? It's just really fun.

Everyone has such cute art ! Lovely characters.
I've decided that once again its time for me to leave DA and CS.
So, I will be trading almost all of my characters and if anyone see's some pets they want from me, just send me a trade.
Here is the journal where all the character links are. I am only looking for USD since I am quitting everywhere else. And please don't offer me stupid prices for good characters. Please comment on the journal there, so I can get to you faster.

Okay, so this question has been bugging me ever since I've had a charahub, weebly, and toyhou.se.

Code: Select all

[b]Which site do you prefer using for characters? Sta.sh, Charahub, Weebly/Wix/Other Website, or Toyhou.se?[/b]

I have to ask because I personally have an oc site (Weebly) for characters I design myself, and one for those I adopt from others. However, it's. . .annoying to say the least when I have to switch back and forth between them.
Charahub, although has nice questions for development, only has 10 slots for pictures and you can only have 100 characters on their max (and I sadly don't have the money to go premium).
Toyhou.se is just slightly cumbersome because that would require me to take my 1000+ art pieces (and yeah, sadly, I counted) and as much as I love the feature to make sure artist credits are there, I'm not a fan of doing that for that many pieces.
And Sta.sh, I'm just afraid of having a misclick and losing all of that art.
If anyone could give me their input on which site you use and why you like it I'd very much appreciate it. Thanks!

@Demzee Aww, that sharkdog is precious. Too bad I only have. . .96 points to my name.

@Sparkyy Good luck with those customs!

@KiPotato Have fun on your stream, yo

@Castlee. Hope you clear out all those you no longer want. Good luck in all your future endeavors.

@Nightsouls Such a lovely character. Everything is so pretty!

What sort of program do you use to Crop Out a character you bought from a sheet adopt? Why that program and do you have any tips?
I use. . .many hah. The I used to use was Gimp, now but I use FA.

OH!
If you want a free online software that you don't have to download to make things transparent, crop, then I say use LunaPic!They even have functions to send the image your working with to your tumblr, flickr or imgur to upload them.

Have you ever gone back to an old character and try to write for them again? If so, how easy or difficult was it for you to go back to the mindset you had when you first wrote about them?
Yeah I have. Most of the time, if I have a new idea for a character it's easy because it probably means that I was never really into the previous idea I had for them. It would probably be hard for me to go back to that mindset because I don't change my character ideas often.

What character was the hardest for you to get back into the mindset of writing for?
Any character of mine that I feel is a duplicate of another. For example, Simon! I designed him with a mastermind in mind (ha) but because his personality was slightly based off of my previous character Techka. And since Teckha's idea was cute and evil, and Simon is less so "cute and evil" it's hard to write because I can't fully used my original source material.


What do you enjoy most when you're developing characters?
Personalities! I have so many different sites that colleges use for character traits and I love mixing and matching those traits together. It's loads of fun when you're developing and you already know who doesn't like ketchup or who would be the one to stick their tongue to a frozen telephone pole.

How do you feel when buying other people sona?
I don't know about others, but I feel awkward about it. I feel as if I will never be able to give them as much love as their previous owner did. But that's just me.

Pick 5 Characters, order them 1-5! (Just names are fine!)
(I used random.org to pick
1. [11] Arrluk
2. [57] Truvia
3. [48] Pourpre
4. [33] Taki
5. [1] Analogue

Characters 1 and 3 are in an argument about sharks, which one is the most logical whilst arguing?
Probably Arrluk. Although both of them are older, Arrluk is even older than the 30-40 year old. Being 64 does have it's perks.
Though, Pourpre probably has more knowledge since she pride herself in being a journalist. Hm, could be both of them.

Character 5 went swimsuit shopping, what did they get?
The cutest, most "out there" bikini. Analogue believes that if they're going to spend money on a bathing suit they want the one that will gain the most attention.

All of Characters are at the beach, who's doing what?
Arrluk is certainly sleeping on the beach. Poor old man.
Truvia is making a sandcastle and making battle plans on how to utilize nature to benefit it's destruction.
Pourpre is probably writing. She figures this trip would make a good little column for the summer, so she's working hard in this heat!
Taki is probably using his water powers to push and pull the waves. He's pretty sure he's patrolled the area 12 times in 6 minutes.
Analogue is confused. They live in a computer, so they don't understand the concept of hot or why everyone is throwing themselves into the ocean.

Character 4 is on vacation, they bump into character 2! What happens?
Taki excuses himself. He says he should have paid attention to where he was going. He probably smiles at the child and gives her a random flower from a bush. Truvia says thank you, but she quickly forgets the encounter in her mind. She's not going to let a stranger on vacation ruin hers.
