[-the-Meddler] I think the hard part might be gluing but there are plenty of tutorials online about rooting!

I know it looks kind of nuts on the super dark base, but maybe with some tweaks, I can make it work better across all skins. I plan to make highlighter and contour powder for the face/body and what's known as mouches in French, beauty patches. Cause I want a small scattering. OH OH. Star freckles.XD

Its so pretty and I love it. I wish I could eat buttercream /sob The Diagram is from the May 2014 collection, so it'll come back to the CS in May!

Oi, why would someone do that. More accurately why do anything malicious to anybody else.

[edit]

NOW WITH CLOTHING

There are tuts, yes, I think there is a type of glue that goes inside the head after rerooting to make sure it stays put. There are two methods, the needle and knot and the rerooting tool method, if I remember correctly. I'd have to decide which one to try first at least. People I've met at Syndrone used the rerooting tool method and her dolls looked very nice.

Oh those all sound so pretty and useful! I'm glad I have a ringside seat for this process. And I love freckles! I almost always use them at Syndrone and very often at Gaia and Rec.

It is pretty, thank you for telling me about it. I can eat buttercream and I love it, it's plain milk I cannot stand. Ah okay, I can look for it then!

I don't know, it was about the rudest thing I've ever had happen. They can literally auction MY home because of HER debt. I paid for the house, why not pay the taxes from that money? SO RUDE. But I'll manage, I'll just have to ask for help from my dad to get by. ):

I think it looks pretty around the eyes! And thank you for the capelet.

[-the-Meddler] Yeah, I'd probably either A) do what I do with my straight wigs and pour hot water over the doll's existing hair, or B) go through and reroot it because I have too much time on my hands lmao. Well that's good to know :D

I just have to get better at drawing stars because someone on the CW team will definitely rip into me for the star-freckles being ugly lol. Mouches are basically moles made of velvet flocking or other things, and the French actually had them in a variety of shapes, oddly enough for the 18th century. I want to make some kind of quirky ones, styled after this bag print by Valfré. I'm happy to share the process as I work on just doing CWs! We have freckle items already, icymi: - I'm partial to the Light one for the really pale V1 base (the one I normally use) since it shows up a little better and looks really nice paired with

You're welcome! It's a good piece for dressing up or down and adding some subtle detail. Lactose intolerance keeps me away, which sucks because red velvet cakes here are coated in like a 1/2" thick layer all around 😩 Definitely!! I'm glad they started bringing back the old Collections each month, it makes it easier to grab those old items <3 <3

I don't know. Because greed is a wholly human issue? No thanks on that one! 😒

I might put that in the description somewhere. "Ya know, it's pretty fashionable to wear blush up under your eyes." XD But really, it actually is a makeup trend in Japan and Korea, that's been seen on the Parisian runways and on magazine covers.

Oh I've done hair with hot water already, wrapped it around straws and "permed" it too. I'm talking about removing all the existing hair and rerooting a full head. I used water that was too hot on my CA Cupid and it melted in places, so I had to cut her hair very short and I want her to have long hair again. 😭

I love that print! The idea of shaped moles sounds cute to me. I'd wear them! I grabbed the light freckles. I had only ever seen the dark at one point before I knew how to search better and then forgot about them. They will look cute on some avatars in the future I am sure of it.

I can see where it's going to be useful. I'm really sorry about your lactose intolerance. Buttercream is to die for! I'll have to remember to search every month!

Greed is the root of a lot of trouble for a lot of people, we've touched on it already. 😒

I think that's a cute description lol. A lot of the descriptions are amusing here so why not? Yes, I'm a fan of k-music so I have seen it already!

[-the-Meddler] Lol I know. Mattel might cheap out on the hair they use if it melted... Sounds like kanekalon, which will melt with hot enough temperatures (great for dreads, not so much for dolls!). Hrm.

Yeah, its adorable. I like little quirky touches, even if others don't lol! Make unique stuff Subeta.

It's okay :D I'll live without it :P

Stupidity is also a root of trouble too. Just look at the incoming president.

I love the descriptions for items. Prime example! I die every time I read this, I can't help but laugh at it. I like K-pop, just haven't listened to much of it lately.

Maybe. I wish I knew more about that type of thing. I know that the hair on La Dee Da dolls is soft and melty, and not heavy and shiny. Is that it? Ruined one of them by pouring hot water on her, took all the shine and body out of the hair. Wilted right away.

Quirky details work, though, they make for clever avatars. Subeta does make unique stuff. OH MY GOD THAT REMINDS ME - Narshe wants to hang out at Caedon and I am so distressed by this news. I don't wanna have an ugly pixelled avatar. 😢

The stupid runs deep in the voter base. I certainly didn't vote for the incumbent. I thought he was a joke, I never believed he'd get the nomination and now he's going to be president. It's surreal to me that people can be this greedy and dumb.

OMG that hat is funny. Also cute. I love hats. I would slap headgear on nearly every avatar.

Just banned another bot at Syndrone. I swear they KNOW it's not busy there so they come in droves.

[-the-Meddler] It could be. melts with hot melt and definitely loses any sort of volume/shine/softness. Toyokalon is another one that melts with hot water and gets like.... Crunchy. Crunchy is the only way to describe it.

That they do! I'm sorry D: Compromise? Have him try out Subeta if you have to try Caedon? Man those avatars are ugly... I don't care if they get fixed, they're still ugo. >_>

Yep. The worst part is people are actually regretting their voting and it's like "where was this when you were literally on the sidewalk with picket signs saying "VOTE TRUMP" and all that BSS??"

I love it simply for that description 😂 I love adding headpieces because they can be that last little thing to really pull an avatar's look together. Unfortunately, nothing worked well for this one. ¯(ツ)/¯

Ugh. 😓 I am so sorry. I don't even remember if Syn has captcha or that newer "I'm not a bot" captcha for account sign ups...

I think I've seen the crunchy one on MC2 dolls. Horrible hair, really have to be careful with it. Ruined one with a simple low heat of the hair dryer, melted right together while I was softening her head. >~<

He said he cannot do Subeta, couldn't find his way to the avatar wardrobe after signing up and just quit. I just cannot see myself at Caedon, at all, the avatars are just atrocious and I honestly don't think I can get past that. Like at all. It's ain't happening. I guess I can have Subeta and he can have Caedon if he really thinks that's a cool place to be. I think Subeta is a cool place to be and I'm gonna stay. -3-

Oh yes I see this all over Tumblr, the ones who regret their vote now. They voted for hate, and they want their hate. They make me ill. I saw an exchange at Facebook going around Tumblr too, where someone was crowing about how happy they were that "Obamacare" was being repealed and then their friend pointed out that they have their own insurance through the ACA. They literally believed it was two different things. Un-fucking-real.

The description is hilarious. I agree - that last bit on the head can tie things together. Your hair is pretty without anything added! The bun is so unique. -pets- owo

Somehow I don't think they have the captcha, because I ban bots daily. I send them a message with the ban saying "this is a measure to prevent spam, if in error make a new account and contact an administrator". I have yet to get a single message. :/

[-the-Meddler] Ew. DDD: They both sound like toyokalon and kanekalon D:

... Bruh, it's literally in a dropdown menu... x__x Or if you add stuff to the wardrobe, it'll link it in the confirmation message. orz People want everything handed to them. I know Subeta has a LOT of menus, but it's decently easy to navigate by just messing around.

America, y u so dumb.

I love this and I need a second copy. owo AND YOUR HA OMG. I couldn't click the Like button enough times 😂😂😂

Aw man D: That sucks. T_T The site should really just close down at this point...

If that's what they were, well, I don't like that lol. The MC2 dolls have great heads on crappy bodies and I bought them specifically to put on Liv bodies. The melted hair really steamed me up.

IKR? I was nice and understanding but at the same time I was like "you didn't give it a chance or even ask me". Subeta does have a lot going on and it can be overwhelming, I get that, but here I am! Just ask me! So I guess we will be chilling at different sites for a change. Oh well. I like it here and cannot be bothered with Caedon.

So very dumb, I agree.

Oh thank you! I know it's not very fancy but I wanted a change from the one I had. I'm happy with it. Thank you for the like. ;w;

It does suck, it's tiresome and gets in the way of the few posts we do get. It really should close down now, it's just stupid how those two abandoned it.

How was your day? I have a doctor appointment at 2, joy. Then I need to go to the pharmacy.

[-the-Meddler] That's probably it. x_x Sorry your dolls got messed up D:

Asking for help does not make you look bad.XD It makes you look bad when you don't bother and give up automatically.

Surrounded by idiots sometimes :/

It doesn't need to be fancy to be good. I think that's what people might miss sometimes?? And you're welcome!

Yeah it is. They were super excited then gone in 60 seconds. icontrolawesome is still around, I know that much.

It was quiet. I got confirmation I can post an adoptable cat up on Imgur without it being taken down, so I'll be writing her post up today. I also need to go to a few stores and get applications. orz Bleh doctors ><;;

It's alright, I managed with the others by covering the hair and working painfully slowly. <:

In all honesty I don't think he even tried. ): I'm not leaving though, even if he does decide to hang out at Caedon. Nothing says we have to be joined at the hip 24-7.

I seem to be surrounded by idiots frequently. I see Vote for Trump signs up the road and on cars in line while picking up my daughter. So dumb.

Well thank you so much! I tried and I'm glad to hear I did well. It helps to have some feedback since I have so little to work with right now.

Oh I have icontrol on my Skype, we chat sometimes to stay in touch. He's a nice guy tbh, just not well-suited to run an avatar site. He's going to school for coding!

You draw adoptables? Cute! Good luck with the applications! Yea I know but I need to see this one for my medicines. I am out of my pain pills and need another one adjusted so I have to go in.

[-the-Meddler] Working slowly sucks but it usually worth it in the end orz

That's why most people leave... Just click around and take time to explore instead of declaring something unusable orz

Pfft. Saw a truck literally covered in Trump signs like wtf.

You're welcome! It'll get better with how much stuff is available :)

He may not be the most suited for straight running a site, but at least he's around. Yay for him! Maybe he can do something hella cool.

Its an actual cat lol. XD I can't draw cute adoptables. Doctors are like the most necessary of necessary evils D:

Yep and I'm an impatient person. I make a lot of mistakes that way! Dx

Really? Just look around awhile, I mean, it's something new and takes practice. There are nice people too who'll help you out. ;) It's definitely usable, we have more people online than any other place I frequent. Maybe Gaia has as many, IDK I didn't look.

Oh man gross. The truck I saw at my daughter's school also had some stupid wiggling fish on the tow ball. Rednecks. :/

I'm working on it! I'm impatient though, like I said. I will work hard for items! I am vending like crazy.

Yes, he was always around even when he said he was on vacation or what have you. Like he left the site to me and Debauchery quite a few times but if I messaged him he'd reply eventually. I told him it was a good move for him and hope he codes something else awesome.

Oh an actual cat! What's the story with the kitty? She wasn't there! I sat in the waiting room for almost an hour before I even found that out and now I have to call in tomorrow morning to try and get a call-in appointment so I can get my medicines. I was and am so pissed off. That office has their heads up their collectives asses. -_-

[-the-Meddler] It could be worse.

Yep. Lot of people complain about how it's unusable. Idk about Gaia, the community is messed up over there... If you have your friends, cool, whatever, you know?

😒😒😒

Vend! Vend as much as you can! There's an achievement for vending like 50k items, which gives you a Mini-Vending Machine. That, in turn, will give you a Collection Item or a Monthly Collection, one of those too. Too lazy to go look at SubetaLodge right now 😂

Awww, well at least he stayed in contact.

We think she was starved and abandoned, or abandoned and ended up starved. Definitely someone's cat before winding up outside. We haven't seen a single sign to say someone's missing her either :( She's emaciated but we're working on getting her fat and happy again; she's looking better, that's for sure.

Are you kidding me?? What kind of doctor (or doctor's office, for that matter) makes an appointment when the doctor won't be in?? It reminds me of when my guidance counselor wasn't there the day I was supposed to have a scheduled meeting with her. Why anyone would schedule a meeting on a day they knew X-person would be gone is beyond me... I ended up hiding in the school bathroom so I didn't have to go back to class >_>

That's right, it could always be worse.

It's definitely not unusable. I have friends at Gaia but I don't socialize there. The community is ridiculous.

LOL Yea, gotta love rednecks. 😒

Yea he was good about that. No matter how crappy he ran the site lol, which I have no issues admitting that he did run it crappy. That place has been through so much man.

AWWWWWWW POOR KITTY. You have to have her adopted out, you can't keep her? I have birds so I only have an outdoors cat but he's a good friendly boy who knows to stay away from the street and gets let inside three times a day.

No kidding. They claim they called me this morning to let me know and I was like "and what if I didn't check my machine, because I didn't..." and they should give me an appointment slot without prejudice since it's their error. If I have to go early tomorrow morning I am gonna be so annoyed. I like to rest up on the weeks I don't have my daughter. I get very worn out on the weeks that I do have her and need these days to rest and recharge. Fibromyalgia is no easy thing to function with and I wasted an hour at that office without anyone telling me jack. Jerks! OMG well I don't blame you for finding a way to avoid going back to class lol.

[-the-Meddler] Gaia is more unusable since socializing publicly is a no-go 😂

Yep... And that's messed up.

We really can't; we were already going to bring in a different cat, and she might be older than our pre-existing cat. >_<;; I feel so bad not being able to take her, but she needs a home that can really shower her in attention. 😓

Jaysus people. /eyeroll Get your shit together or get out, because clearly working in a doctor's office is not working!

YES. I WON'T USE THAT PLACE. You're right lol. I wish they'd bring back zOMG, I'd use that.

It's embarrassing to be staff there sometimes, people just have such a bad view of the place and especially of the higher staff, well, even the mods got flack.

Oh I see, well, then you're doing all you can do for her. She sounds sweet and hopefully finds a good home quickly. Where are you all posting about her?

IKR? Ugh I am so frustrated because I really need my medicines straightened out!

Did you get applications? I didn't get to go around for my roomie at all today.

[-the-Meddler] A lot of people would, fiancé included.

I noticed 😒 It can't be helped on staff's part. :(

Imgur, since I got approval for it. There's not many other places I know I can post her.

I'm sorry you have to deal with idiots in a medical situation D:

Unfortunately, no. And I have stupid "consulting firms" bugging me 😒 I don't want to harass people in signing up for DishNetwork or AT&T. I've been harassed, not doing it to other people. /eyeroll

If it ever opens again, you'll have to join us! It was so much fun and you could vend the items you collected to the alchemists.

It was hard to miss and thank you. Of course some of the staff members were kind of assy themselves. I can see why people would mistrust the place.

Oh yes I remember you said Imgur, have you thought about maybe Craig's List? I'm not sure you could trust people there though.

Thank you, this is an ongoing issue because of my lousy insurance and the few doctor's offices in this area taking new patients.

"Consulting firms" is such a misleading term. It really is being paid to bother people, all that cold-calling. I don't like those calls and nobody really does, your stress level would be sky-high doing a job like that and god forbid you're on commission for calls completed!
