Thank you! I was exceptionally happy when I found the name available back when I first snagged it, around the time WP and Dual Blades launched. I could totally see an SG like that, and I'm sure we both know folks who could run with a concept for "Insert," though I dare not speculate on the outcome. |

Numlock (Ice control naturally lol) would be pretty cool too... Insert might be a bit tricky though... ahem.  |

A belated congratulations on making your goal! Of course, there's no excuse for stopping, so keep at it!

Ooh that's cool!. I think you went into socalled "coffeeshops" *giggles* those are not to sell coffee indeed :P. |

(Sidenote: For those that don't know, Febo's is kinda like their version of a McDonalds or BK.) |
I find it very refreshing to finally talk to someone that came to Amsterdam for to good things!
Amsterdam is really nice (and over 200 km away fromwhere I live.. but still!). And I'm ashamed to say I've never been in the Van Gogh museum sofar... I tend to.. just didn't get to it.... *blushes*
And to be even more clear...Febo is what we call a "snackbar". McDonalds or BK are "fastfood restaurants".
--> yes... the Dutch have odd ways.
CoH Fan-Art Sale still several slots open!

The sightseeing was great... you never know what you'll find just walking around, I walked down a sidestreet one day and saw an big stone archway I had never seen. It was above the entrance to a shopping center and carved across the top were the words "HomoSapiens non urinat in ventum"... granted my Latin is rusty but to me that reads "Man should not piss into the wind" lol classic! That kind of structure would never be allowed where I live. Later I learned it used to be an old prison that was converted to a mall, hahaha.
You really must go see the VanGogh (I command it!
)... it's totally worth making an afternoon out of it. Burgers, fries, deep fried hotdogs... that's not fast food?
I was only in a Febo's once so I could be wrong... do you mean it is fast food but not a fast food restaurant because the stuff comes out of
vending machines?

Thank you very much ^^

All I saw when I first signed up were the sections where people were complaining about what they didn't like about the game so I went Meh and just went back to playing and didn't come back for a long time. I even went looking for an "Art" section on several occasions (cuz I thought there had to be one) and couldn't find one. Silly me for not looking in a section called "Screenshots and Fan Creations."

I was expecting the exact same thing. Its obviously a huge part of the community. Although..it doesnt seem to be as big as some other games or online communities which surprised me considering the customization in the game..
Meh, Who knows ^^
I don't (and haven't) play any other MMOs so this is just wild speculation but perhaps the amount of customization is what keeps this smaller than others? If you can't get your character to look how you want it to then you need artists... When you have the power to get it almost exactly how you want then perhaps some just settle for that or screenshots?? Just a guess...
Plus, there are lurkers out the wazoo here! Every now and again we lure one out but there's hundreds of them out there... Thousands... Millions!!!!

I think that is probably a very good observation.|

I play other mmo's and i have never really wanted art of any of my characters...appart from the sites that are social networking with customizable avatars.
One site in particular i use, you make your own little person, buy/save up for items..millions to choose from and the art community is massive. But it is aimed at a younger audience

It's up in my NewArtz thread (button in the sig) if you want to take a peek.
...think this is like number 45 of 40 now... oh wait that finished already.
(got used to assigning a number to my drawings heh)
Mike is a Willpowered / Superstrength Tank who can jump really high and far!
--> And no.. not at Febo's just off Prinsengracht *giggles*, waaaay more up :P.
I take it you've been there?
Heh, yeah I used to pick a country/region every year an just go explore for a few weeks. I've been all over the place.
Although I have no interest in the "cafes" (they don't serve coffee in them anyway o.0) or some of the other stuff that people go to Amsterdam for it was one of coolest places for sightseeing and art museums (The Van Gogh museum there is one of my all time favorites) and I like that people don't take themselves too seriously over there.
(Sidenote: For those that don't know, Febo's is kinda like their version of a McDonalds or BK.)
And yes I am still looking for things to draw so thanks for the refs I'll look them over... I can already tell from the thumbs that you have a good eye for poses.
P.S. Cool name too, I always thought there should be a SG called Keyboard Commando's or something like that where everyone has a key for a name (dibs on Pause Break!
like Shift (for a shapeshifter) or Backspace (gravity controller) or Spellcheck (a magic themed hero) FLock (could be someone with a lot of pets heh)... Numlock (Ice control naturally lol) would be pretty cool too... Insert might be a bit tricky though... ahem.
