My [url=http://photobucket.com/albums/v289/nsudino/]Full Gallery[/url] can be found there. There are well over [strike]600[/strike] 1,000 pictures, and it's constantly growing. (Updated 13 April 2009).

Noraboo showed us all this really adorable drawing that someone had made for her that cost about 1500 gold. At that time, it was a lot of gold for me, but I really did want to get one. So, I PMed Megarose (the artist, that is) and asked if I could have one too. I showed her the things I like, and she made it for me, complete with extras! It was adorable, and I was officially hooked from that point on. Every now and again, Nora would peek in and show us more of the art that she'd gotten. When I could afford it, I would sneak over to those artists' shops, and buy some more.
The funny thing is, I had almost the same avatar way back then that I do now. This was well after I'd bought things. I've had those same desires of an avatar from day one, no matter what other cool items have come along. It was always the adorable bunny luv, the heart boxers, demon horns, demon wings, and the halo hanging off of one of the horns. I just love seeing my avatar like that. Then, by the time I discovered the clown nose, I was more or less set. :XD However, in case y'all haven't noticed, the bulk of really cool items are donation items. So in order to acquire a couple of the items I really wanted which were released before my join date back in July 2004, I had to work fairly quickly, before they inflated out of control.
[quote="Me on April 6, 2005"]After all this time on Gaia, after all the artwhoring with them on, after all that saving, and buying letters, I finally have my demon horns. The one donation letter that I could never have bought (with cash), because I didn't know about Gaia until a month after its release.
...
Yeah. My avatar is now at the exact way I've wanted it from day one. This is a really big deal for me. Thank you to Lillith-Angel, who told me which letter it should be in. Thank you to the wonderful vend person who sold me the June '04 letter.
I'm done.
P.S. Lilleh's name has a hyphen, not an underscore, because she's a confusing hor who doesn't know how to use her spacebar, but we love her anyway.[/quote]

It's been a really fun ride so far. ^_^
