  1.  I am very sorry I have not been around for the last couple months, but things with my business have gone from way too busy to, I am working 12-14 hours a day 7 days per week.  I do not know when I will be able to relax and spend some time again with you all here, but I am very much looking forward to that date.  For those I have made commitments to draw for, again I am very sorry...I will of course draw for you for free when I am able to return.  I think of you all often which helps me to get through my very long days.   Thank you all for your understanding.

  2. At the moment I am very busy with RL work, but I would very much like to draw for you... If you are in a hurry, of course, I would not be immeadiately available. 

     

     

    Also I haven't forgotten about your heart...should have it completed soon.

  3. To all those I am drawing for, I have not forgotten you....

     

    I'm still caught up with too much work running my business gone crazy and I have not had any spare time to draw.  I'm hoping that in a couple of three weeks or so I will be freed up and be able to spend it passed out at the GOE (which means drawing).  Until then I appreciate your patience.  Sacrifice a few virgins for me.

  4. Oh and sorry it took me so long to respond...I own and opperate my own business (Real Estate and Finance)...and when it gets busy, I have to spend enormous amounts of time working.  Things have been kind of crazy lately..not complaining as I like making money...but it did keep me from participating in the birthday celebrations as much as I would have liked.  It also means no drawing and little time to hang with you all here.  :(  so I guess I am complaining a little.  I really need to get my priorities straight. :D

  5. Many of my Drawings that appear here in my Forum Shoppe have been enhanced by way of computer editing tools.  However, the gifs that I upload to be made into Avatars are not.  This gypsy dancer is a good example of this, so I will upload larger Jpeg pictures and the original scan so you can see. 

    I do this because I enjoy creating art and I enjoy using many mediums that are not allowed here in MD.  To me personally, I do not consider the avatars that I draw for MD as "finished" art work, because they are not as good as they can be.  But because the Image is scaled down to 160x100, most of the fine details are lost anyway and so I don't mind as much that my art is "unfinished".  I also understand and comply with Mur's/MD's point of view and I respect it.  So I only upload for approval according to the rules.   Again the Image that appears in the Forum is only used here in the Forum.  It has not been radically atlered and is a good representaion of what the Approved avatar will look like.

     

     

    Here is the picture I used to create the gif Image and would use to upload for approval:

    This image has only been cleaned up, scaled to fit 160x100, and sharpened/brightened a little.  No other computer manipulations have occurred.

     

    Copy of the gif ready for approval: http://storenow.net/my/?f=e93f20270cafa901090d9becbddb46c9

     

    Here is the picture when it was first scanned:

    no computer manipulations what-so-ever but had to scale down as orriginal scan was too large a file to upload it here.

  6. Wow!  What a great Question.  Are there any theories Out there? 

     

    I heard the name Kelle before... It's Irish though not very common. Found this on a Google search:   Kelle \k(el)-le\ is a boy's name meaning "slender" and is a variant of Kellen (Gaelic): an ancient given name.

     

    could the name have some reference to a "slender" Mountain?

  8.   I don't think any of us wish to detract from Mur's vision of MD...I haven't always appreciate aspects of what he does in MD right away...but I have learned that over time I come to appreciate it. 

     

       If Viscosity is here to stay...I suggest that those of us that are concerned about it's negative affects should do something about it.  Perhaps what we need is to form a guild to open lands/scenes closed by vis.  That way we can keep lands scenes open, but not all at once, and not all the time.  Vis can still function to keep remote areas less accessable and allow group centers for interaction, while at the same time, we do not lose parts of our realm to a lack of travel.  It would also allow new players the opportunity to vist areas oncethey have been opened by the guild. 

     

      No One all but said this in his comments above.  So... I nominate No One to lead it. (never gets old)  :D      How about.... "Trailblazers Guild"?
