Oh, that would be beyond awesome! If you look at my album you'll see I made a stab at organizing it, but I gave up when it started taking an hour to move ten or eleven stickers.

Tempest has descended from above in order to play! You receive a storm item so she can get close enough to give you a MIGHTY BEAR HUG.
I agree with you both the sticker album needs a serious update in organization capabilities.
I used to try to organize my sticker collection, but I gave up on it a long time ago. COngrats on getting the Tempest.

Thanks! I gave up organizing my stickers, too.
I had one got a really rude message from someone asking me to organize my sticker collection, because it was too hard for people to see what I did or didn't have, and therefore, it was hard to gift stickers. I chose not to reply. I didn't have anything nice to say. LOL. Mainly, since they gave us the option to stick ourselves, I get the stickers I want, and pay to stick them myself. Second, if you (anyone) wants to give a sticker, I usually try my best to get caught up with what I need on my wishlist. And thirdly, if gifting is such a chore that a person has to send messages like that, they can keep their gifts.
So yeah, I didn't say anything that time, and I waited a really long time before I bothered to try to fix that mess in my sticker collection. Its not for them anyway, its for me.
Anyway, rant over. Now I have to go throw dinner in the oven.

I would have been pissed off, too. Either they can check your WL or take the gift that was such a hassle to give and shove it in their ear. I know my WL is a challenge to, but its really my personal reminder/WL so I can work toward items I want.
My dinner is in the oven and baking.
I feel the exact same way. I have been working very hard on my Subeta account for years, and when I add something on my WL, its more for me than for someone else to buy. I do tend to put some pretty expensive things on there. No doubt, the Lair Bears is the most awesome group on Subeta, and they have helped me and given me so many outstanding items. But I have worked hard to get to the point where I am now, and I actually used to have a lot more. At one point, I was seriously thinking about quitting and I gave away a lot of stuff. I gave away Subeautique items that are retired now, and super expensive to replace, and I even gave away a few CWs (which I used to spend way too much money on), along with other things. My account worth probably has gone down a few notches. Since then, I haven't had the time to work on my account the way I used to, and I haven't tried to get the things I gave away. I would have to make a whole new wishlist, and just thinking about it all makes me tired.

People outside the lair generally can be annoying, here is a great sense of community and family. I kick myself for not grabbing items that have retired. If I knew then what I know now, I would have grabbed a few each. I am currently going through eatable items for pet for gourmand achievement its a challenge, thankfully the lodge helps a lot with the lists.
The lodge has helped me so much in the past, but I have no idea what I am going to do about the wardrobe. I have given away so many items, and taken so many things out of my wardrobe, my account in the lodge is going to be a mess. I have no idea what I have anymore and with the changes on Subeta, I don't know how to update it. And I hate the old way anyway, having to copy and paste every page source, ugh.... A lot of reasons why I left for a while was because this site was beginning to feel like a chore and not so much for enjoyment.

Do things as you feel like your have the time or feeling to do it. Just let it go and dont worry about it. I go through things as I feel in the mood for.
I dumped a lot of items years ago too from a falling out with my original cult. They were all subeta and stuff even though they were on neopets, and I wasn't really here for myself so much as because they were.
What with current inflation of sP those dumped items aren't all that more expensive for me to get again than they were, so I guess I'm lucky on that.
Aaaargh! I am just one more win on the Cranky Carrot to get my 23rd fifth-win drop from it. The two hundred points of speed between my Subeta 10th anniversary pets Nike and Vikki is the difference between being badly waled upon but winning (limping to Selina afterwards) and being choked out from chain freezing.
, I wish they had a sticker amnesty week, where you could take stickers from your vault and sticker yourself without charging you an arm and a leg. I never remember to give myself time to set up trades, nor do I have will to impose upon my friends to perform the arduous task of sticker-ing me. I have hundreds of stickers languishing in my vault.
I have ADD-ddddddddd really bad. I can't do the same thing for very long, at all. Probably the reason I am not even close to finishing my book. I got up to 5 chapters written, which took me a LOOOOONNNNGGGG time..... and I kind of stopped. And then I got distracted with a new game, and work got exhausting, and I had a lot of things going on in RL, and I just really never got back to writing. And when I try, I draw a blank. I am still getting stuck on format and making it a must to be perfect on first draft instead of just writing.
AGH!!!

: I know exactly what you mean, I am diagnosed with ADHD, and have been medicated for it, so I know all about distractibility. I have only one bit of advice, and it comes from author David Morrell, the author of the Rambo stories and some of the best thriller books out there. He said, "Give yourself permission to write crap..." I had to take that advice because I would derail myself trying to be perfect right out of the chute.
My writing sessions are now fueled by lots of caffeine ( because it helps me focus. ) and I just sit and write and write and write and let the words come out of my head. I call it 'stream of consciousness writing.' It's not esoteric, strange or mystical, it's just a habit of writing out my ideas as I go. I do't go back and fix sentence structure, grammar, punctuation or plot, I just write. ( fortunately, I am pretty good at grammar and sentence structure, so it doesn't sound too bad. ) I give myself permission to write every night for at least two hours. Not that anything wonderful comes out of those two hours, but it's a habit now and I am not soon going to be broken of it. And there is a lot of 'crap.' But at least the story gets out of my head, where it had been trapped.
I hope this helps...just give yourself permission to write, to write crap, to spend the time writing and to free your head of what just might turn out to be a really great story.
...that nobody else will ever read....unless you write it.
(hugs)
Thanks. I am working on the medication thing. I have an appointment in a couple weeks. And I also need to try to discipline myself. When I get on my computer there are so many things I want to do "first" before I start writing, and then I kind of never get there. Most of my ideas come into my head while I am at work, and the job I have is not conducive to stopping to write down every idea, and when I get home and try to put it into an actual story, it really is crap. LOL. Thanks for the advice. Maybe I should just write the flowing ideas down, no matter how unorganized or finished, and I can work on the details later. I also need to dig up the old files I have of my original chapters. I don't know if I am going to even use those, or if I am going to start over again, for like the 5th time. But I might at least get some idea of where I was trying to go in the first place. Who knew something that used to be so easy could be so hard. I used to be able to write a short story in a matter of minutes, and they must have been pretty good, because I won quite a few ribbons for creative writing in school. But I guess I lost my touch. LOL.

were you able to make whatever it was you wanted at the alcove?
Drama or llama? I'll take the llama :D
I found out the items I was interested in were minions, and I for some reason thought they were plushies or beanbags. So in any case, I got help and info. I can use, when I want to do another item.
