We talk on MSN, I think of him as a little brother who sometimes gives me big brother advice.

Etc.: I brought her to Gaia.. hehe I probably drove her insane with me always on when she comes over. I've known her for near 10 years now. She is my brothers GF, the mother of my nieces Jade and Chloe and my nephew Seth. I think of her as a sister I dont fight with and can be comfortable as myself. I root for her when her and my brother play video games together. Which is usually MAGIC: the gathering. Totally our favorite card game.. and its pretty cool on PS1 too. Our favorite PS1 game of all time.. is N2O.

If you're a friend of mine and an artist draw me and you ^_^</center>

<center>
Do you have a question? Is it here?</center>

• Can I draw whatever I want?
  • yes you may as long as it is of my Gaian avatar and within the ToS.
  
  
• Do you like real life type art?
  • no, I prefer anime over real media.
  
  
• Who are your favorite artist?!
  • if you don't know I am not telling.
  
  
• Why not just commission one GREAT artist?
  • i considered that.. but I am an art whore and I like LOTS of art. And this is fair to not just me but artists 3nodding
  
  
• How many entries can I enter?
  • as many as you want!
  
  
• Can I design my own costume for your orginal characters?
  • *thinks it over* No, I'd rather you use the outfits described please.
  
  
• Will I get scoulded if I annoy you through PMs?
  • yes -_- I only allow commissioners and friends to PM me
  
  
• What about dolls? if I do one, will it count for avi edits or eh... sweatdrop
  • i am not into those doll things. I used to be when I also used The Palace. But no Dolls wont count as edits
  
  
• Can I enter? How do I get the picture to you once done?
  • yes you can enter. If you are drawing it by hand on paper.. you have to scan it/save it/host it/post it.
    
    if you are drawing it by hand on the computer.. just save it then you can either email me (you'd have to ask for my email) then I can host it for you if you like (since I am hosting them anyways) or just host it on your own hosting site (photobucket/tinypic/imageshack etc etc) then copy the URL and paste it in a post here
  
  
• I have a question, can we take a few things off clothes wise, like maybe the headphones?
  • item removal depends on which outfit you mean to draw 3nodding
  
  
• Are there more outfit possibilities?
  • i dont plan on adding anymore avatar outfit options for myself.
  
  
• Can I enter a piece I drew and someone else colored?
  • yes, as long as the other person knows that it is an entry for the contest. And if it wins, there will only be one prize awarded, unless it wins another category.
  
  
• I might enter. Can it be a sketch?
  • Yes, sketches can be entered, sketches can even win if they are as good or better then finished pieces, but if you entered a colored piece then you can not enter the sketch of said piece.
