I think what Gaia did to attract guys is... making it into a MMORPG! XD
Hmm, I guess we could make gaming a bigger part of this site. But that doesn't mean more guys will come here. What makes you go on Gaia/this site or whatever avatar site you found first? (one would think dressing up avatars is more of a girl thing) Oh! I know something not dominated by girls: Pokemon!
And , if we really want more guys on here we should probably not just rely on other avatar sites to supply us with new users o_O
Any thoughts on making this place less girly without looking at Gaia? (they used to have a pink logo)
March 17, 2009 3:28 ()
I don't think we need more guys on here. I say keep it girly. :P
March 17, 2009 11:27 ()
That's a bold statement. Wonder who else is up.
March 18, 2009 2:42 ()
nah i think we should have a lot more guys on here
i dont really like girly stuff...
i dont have any suggestions atm but i'll post if i do
March 18, 2009 3:50 ()
Well apparently guys like to dress up too because Gaia attracted guys to it before Zomg came out too. We could add more weapons, guy clothes and stuff like that. I think adding new features like the chat box will also attract more people.
March 18, 2009 5:04 ()
Hmm. What attracts me to gaia...I think the main thing is the complex money system, I get really into buying, selling,trading, etc., but I'm just weird like that -A- I really don't like weapons all that much, but armor is pretty cool owo and monsters! Monsters are always cool :P (one time i was covered in so many pets you couldn't even see me >w<)
I think you just need to finish these features you've been working on, then more people will show up. Oh, and more advertising.(besides human advertising)
March 18, 2009 5:05 ()
By features i mean chat box, pets, possible money system, blahblahblah o3o
March 18, 2009 5:45 ()
Why a money system? Artists already have joy in that....
But do you think there are as many guys as there are girls on Gaia?
I don't necessarily need there to be a lot of guys here, but it would be nice if those who would enjoy this site were able to find it.
Hmm, I was fascinated by the market place of Gaia when I first joined there, too. But it's gotten a bit unstable after they got a cash shop/zOMG/aquariums. Not many of my investments are worth anything anymore.
Monsters/Pokemon/pets, are guys really into that? I would really like to see the statistics for Neopets XP
I would need to be making money before I could pay for advertising. I don't think any avatar site (and there sure are a lot of them out there) is making money, although Gaia is certainly trying very hard.
March 18, 2009 21:36 ()
Not so much feedable pets, guys cant really handle that much of a responsibility(i know i cant D:) but just, idk, pets. like as an item option.
I feel my boy/girl meeting ratio on gaia has been pretty even so far o=o
i know its not so much wanting guys on here, but more to be a unisex site and not be seen as a site that only deals to one sex. idk maybe diff bgs?
March 18, 2009 21:36 ()
oh and all the mods are female. :o
March 19, 2009 2:58 ()
i wish i was a mod on any popular site
that'll be cool BD
i think there arent a lot of dudes around here is because most ppl cant find this site since it's pretty small
March 19, 2009 19:45 ()
That just means more work and answering to people that sometimes have their problem answer themselves. But that's my opinion on options of being a mod where sometimes you really do nothing for a spell.
March 19, 2009 23:38 ()
i really dont mind answering a lot of questions and more work...
March 25, 2009 9:57 ()
How badly do you guys want to be able to make your own wiki? (before more people start making clubs on their profiles instead of on a wiki)
Maybe I'll add some more features to it first, though (like: recovering the previous versions of a page).
March 28, 2009 12:20 ()
I guess, it's better if it's on the profile for now.
I think, only "official" matters can be written in wikis.
Is the calendar shows up to 5 most recent birthdays?
I was just a bit curious since mine wasn't there.
March 28, 2009 22:00 ()
oh my gosh y love the new image of the first page!
March 29, 2009 0:20 ()
There's a stray pixel on the banner.
March 29, 2009 0:22 ()
i think its the white pixel
March 29, 2009 1:12 ()
Cool huh? Az made it, I thought it'd go well with these marvellous Earth Hour colors XP (did you know it actually saves power to have a black background? Admittedly, it kills the readability though)
And yes, Wolf, it shows only the first 5 birthdays, a few days ago we could see you but then Jiuly entered her birthday and then the Az impersonator.
March 29, 2009 1:48 ()
i think u should delete az's impersonator...
i keep on thinking that she's az o.o
i didnt know that it saves power to have a black backround
does it really?
March 29, 2009 4:56 ()
Yes there is Chich and for a very good reason...
That and I didn't know it would show up >_<
Oh well, I', making more so hopefully the extra pixel issue will be fixed... if not they all will have it.
March 29, 2009 4:58 ()
:o Ok. Would it be too much to ask what that reason is?
March 29, 2009 5:08 ()
Why is everything black?!
In animation shop, I'm having issues with the length of my images.
Since the backgrounds are transparent, if one takes up this amount of space [123] it's the default length, if the one after it only takes up [1234], it moves the image out of place.
Does that make any sense? I'm so pissed off over this DMU and Az crap that I can't even think straight.
March 29, 2009 5:10 ()
Umm...Earth Hour. o=o
I...wish that made sense. Whatever makes your image work. I won't talk about the pixel anymore if it'll help you think better...
March 29, 2009 5:17 ()
I don't know how else to explain it.
I'll try (if I saved the psp file) to make one without it and show you what I mean, if it even does it anymore.
March 29, 2009 5:19 ()
Ok! And is animation shop the name of the program? -wants to find a good animation program-
March 29, 2009 5:20 ()
Yes, it comes with Paint Shop Pro when you buy it, it's like a free-be.
So it's not exactly free.
March 29, 2009 5:30 ()
Aww, that's too bad. I wonder if there's a free trial of it somewhere.
March 29, 2009 5:33 ()
Okay.
Because I took the wings off, the edge of the image is the tips of the elf ears for the first few frames, in a size like this: [123].
When it goes into the angry emote, the length of the image itself gets longer in this :[1234] But because the first frame was set to a length of [123], That's the length the ENTIRE animation stays at.
As you can see as a result of this, it shrinks the angry pose frames.
Putting that dot at the end is really the only thing I can do to prevent it, unless there is a trick that Karin knows about.
March 29, 2009 5:36 ()
Ah. Is there a setting that gets rid of automatic image resizing?
March 29, 2009 5:48 ()
The main problem is the fact that the background is transparent, so it doesn't register anything being there.
There is an animation wizard where you can manually set the dimensions.. I suppose I could give it a try.. even though I should be sleeping XD
March 29, 2009 5:51 ()
D: Don't work too hard. People can die from lack of sleep....although it takes about two weeks of no sleep, but still!
March 29, 2009 6:00 ()
I'll take what basically will turn into a short nap, take a shower, eat a donut, drink an energy shot and be ready to go play Paintball.
OMG.
The wizard actually works, but I have to know the specific dimensions for it to work and I have to save the images one by one, numbering them int he correct order.
Um.. thanks for asking.. if you hadn't, I probably would have left it as is...
March 29, 2009 6:05 ()
You're welcome, Az. Have fun~
March 29, 2009 6:08 ()
For now, I am going to bed. Is till have to sort my gear and get my taxes done before we leave.
I sleep too much when I'm off to die from lack of sleep, no worries when it comes to that.
Karin, go look at the DressMeUp profile, I have a suggestion there, that I don't really feel like copy and pasting..
March 29, 2009 15:07 ()
I erased your impersonator from history!
March 29, 2009 21:40 ()
a lot of ppl like impersonating az
o___O" u have a lot of fans
March 29, 2009 22:28 ()
This account won't stop stretching page please act fast.
March 29, 2009 22:29 ()
Oh god. It's online.
March 29, 2009 22:29 ()
is that u chich?
March 29, 2009 22:30 ()
oopps nvm
March 29, 2009 22:30 ()
I've been asleep since around 6am. It's not me.
March 29, 2009 22:31 ()
YAY! I finally fixed my laptop, it stops disconnecting now! *partys*
March 29, 2009 22:31 ()
no i meant who went on a1 and said This account won't stop stretching page please act fast.
March 29, 2009 22:31 ()
I'm here to say about a1 but someone got before me.
March 29, 2009 22:33 ()
this is like the time bald was here
March 29, 2009 22:34 ()
Oh yeah and CHOCOLATE (who kept annoying us with I LOVE TULLYM qoutes everywhere and I got blame!). I wonder where she went.
March 29, 2009 22:46 ()
Well, as long as they weren't stretching the page I guess they're ok...
March 29, 2009 22:51 ()
That account won't stop stretching because they keep doing it on purpose. How funny, that's like saying.."help me, I can't stop typing."
