Quotes of AWESOME
I love quotations because it is a joy to find thoughts one might have, beautifully expressed with much authority by someone recognized wiser than oneself. - Marlene Dietrich
Day One
Okay, I'll admit it: I'm a tektek junkie. I love the way you can create people and characters and stories.....all without spending any gold. ^_^ I can spend hours playing with all the fantastic items and clothes available.
That said, it occured to me that it might be fun to share my babies with the rest of you. I'll be publishing one a day, and they'll be a mixture of old avis (ones from the several hundred that I've already saved) and new ones as new items become available on tektek.
The schedule is as follows:

Steampunk Sunday
Monotone Monday
Trendy Tuesday
Wondrous Wednesday
Time-Travel Thursday
Free Friday
Seedy Saturday

Yeah, that's right. Bow before the power of my awesome alliteration skillz.
Anyway, as you can see, each day of the week is themed. Sunday is pretty self-explanatory (steampunk is one of my favouritest genres of avi), but I'll give a brief explanation of the rest:

Monotone Monday:
I will focus on a single colour on Mondays. Any shade of that colour is allowed, as well as black, white and grey. No other colour is permitted.

Trendy Tuesday:
I'll showcase some of the newer items available on tektek.

Warrior Wednesday:
Half the avis on Gaia are combatants of some sort anyway, and honestly, they're really fun to make. Will be from any genre.

Time-Travel Thursday:
This one is kind of flexible. For now I'll be making avis from different historical periods and places, but if/when I run out of steam with that, I'll start in on Gaian history.

Free Friday:
When I submit whatever I darn well feel like (because I'm totally not doing that the rest of the time... ninja ). Will probably be when I satisfy my lust for cosplay avis.

Seedy Saturday:
Avis from the wrong side of town. Anti-heros, villains, post-apocalypse...um.....people, etc.

So, the long boring part is over now. mrgreen Well, most of it. One more thing: you may note that I have made no mention of price limits. This is because a) they're DREAM AVATARS. The whole POINT is to play with stuff you can't actually afford on Gaia, and b) I am doing this for my own amusement, not just making free designs for anyone who wants it. If you look at the stuff I post and like my work, feel free to commission a dream avi from me. Then you can request certain items, price limits, etc. I may (that's may) also have contests in the futures with a dream avi commission as the prize.....assuming anyone actually reads this. Which would be cool, but I'm not counting on it. dramallama

And now, without further ado, I present the very first Amazing Avi: Susan Sto-Hellit.
