Mreow, mind if a newbie walks in? :3
(nehh i won't ask for a newbie pack, i'll go straight for a decent look xD)

The_Crow 08-15-2011 08:14 AM

LeannaAnne: Mind? We're pleased to have you! You can still qualify for our welcome package, because you receive a random gift that may be worth quite a bit of gold and/or be quite rare. Our virutal doors are open to you, so please make yourself comfortable. Do you have any questions about the site you'd like to get off your chest?

LeannaAnne 08-15-2011 08:17 AM

Myeah....Actually i do XD How do i get in my wardrobe on the avatar edit spot...? Do i need to have clothes before i can use it? >.o

Oh, i guess i didn;t read far enough then. *goes to read more :3*

How are you today? :D

The_Crow 08-15-2011 08:20 AM

If you click "Avatar" you edit the features of your avatar... hair colour, eye colour, skin tone.

To dress your avatar you need to go to "Inventory". A cool thing about Menewsha is that any "multi equip" items, you don't need two of them to use two of the poses, you can use all of the cool things that come with the item as long as they don't overlap on the same layer.

LeannaAnne 08-15-2011 08:22 AM

Ahh ok good ^-^ I'm currently going for a black top from the alternative shop.....about 250g >w<
I'll.......see later what kind of pretty bottoms there are.

And for making a thread.....Does it work to reserve post? As that it looks like they get all added in one post?

The_Crow 08-15-2011 08:26 AM

It depends on the forum in which you are making your thread. In most forums you are not allowed to double post. In fact, in order to keep people from making this common mistake and receiving infractions the system now merges recent posts for you.

You need to read all the FAQ stickies at the top of a given forum to see if you're allowed to make a front page with reserved posts. For example, if you're setting up a charity you're allowed to do this because it would be a pain to try to squeeze all the information into just the first post.

Also, when you receive your gifts from this charity, if you don't like them you can sell them back for :gold: to add to your amount for the item that you happen to be questing. :)

LeannaAnne 08-15-2011 08:27 AM

Hmmm thats a good point. I was actually thinking about a Quest thread x3 Then its nice to have about 3 post :o

Geesh questions keep popping up, is there an avatar dream creator yet?

@edit: now i'm a little confused tough, the quest forum rules Specially Tell you to reserve post? o-o;

The_Crow 08-15-2011 08:31 AM

There is in fact a Dream Avatar Creator. However, it causes quite a bit of strain on the servers, and you notice that there aren't advertisements ANYWHERE on the site. So for right now, only people who have donated have access to it. I'm not that great with coming up with avatars for people, but there are a few regulars who can come up with all kinds of potential outfits for you out of kindness, just tell them the theme and colours that you're going for.

A quest thread is where you're allowed to reserve posts. You have to make sure to "go advanced" and check the "override double post" box.

You're one post away from receiving some free goodies, dear! :)

LeannaAnne 08-15-2011 08:34 AM

I was just about to tell you i found it in the FAQ >w< *goes to read your post now*

Oh and thanks you! I'll go do that....These quick reply things are quite lazy indeed x3

The_Crow 08-15-2011 08:44 AM

Well, whenever you're ready, dear, simply PM me the form on the front page of this charity, and make sure you have read the RULES for anything IMPORTANT you might need to add onto you form prior to submitting it. The reason this thread exists is to help acclimate the new users... so please don't hesitate to take some items as well... that way you can practice equipping and de-equipping at the very least!

LeannaAnne 08-15-2011 08:46 AM

Yes i did read the rules. I'm trying to figure out what you meant, but i guess i'll just pm you a form <3

*goes to nuzzle in the shops

The_Crow 08-15-2011 08:48 AM

Look for something in red in the rules that many people tend to miss -_-; You'd be surprised!

LeannaAnne 08-15-2011 08:53 AM

Yes i also saw thát XD
Its kind of funny how this thread is made for the most......new person to avatar sites. Including a part to step over to the way of things when coming from gaia.

I've been on......to many sites already x3

Phobos and Deimos 08-15-2011 08:57 AM

We receive many transplants from Gaia. Things work differently over here, so along with free items we answer questions.

You're so lucky, you get first dibs on the shiny pile after it has nearly tripled in size after the most recent site event!

The 85-sided dice lands on 39

LeannaAnne 08-15-2011 09:06 AM

Such a pretty background! ohh I love it <3 Thank youu!
*should post more for her top xD

The_Crow 08-15-2011 09:16 AM

You're very welcome. "A Night in the Graveyard" happens to be one of my personal favourite halloween items. It was only available a few years ago so now you can only get them from other users. I really like looking up at the moon, and the background compliments the colours you've selected for your hair nicely.

Doesn't it feel a little more comfortable to be wearing something and have something equipped while you're saving up for your items?

By the way, can I ask you what you meant by:

I can understand being a traveller from many avatar sites, but I'm not sure what's "kind of funny" about my thread... I hope that's a compliment! :sweat:

LeannaAnne 08-15-2011 09:29 AM

Haha, yes it was meant as a compliment <3 I guess its just a happy way of saying that its great :3

You really did a good job on this thread :D

The_Crow 08-15-2011 09:32 AM

Awe, well in that case thank you kindly, dear. Just wait until my whitelisters greet you. You'll get personal attention whether you like it or not. I'm sure somebody will be itching to make some outfits for you. :yes:

LeannaAnne 08-15-2011 09:33 AM

I'll be going through that limited item thread soon......And......i might try, going through all the shops. Not much to do at this time of the day (All of Us asleep or being insomniac)

The_Crow 08-15-2011 09:40 AM

Well, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go ahead and lie down for a bit. No guarantee that I'll actually sleep but I should make an attempt.

Don't be a stranger, okay? :)

LeannaAnne 08-15-2011 10:11 AM

Stranger? Hmm, i guess i just won't do any bad things <3

Scribbled Lore 08-15-2011 02:59 PM

*waves to Leanna* Hi there! It looks like Crow took care of most of your questions and already got you set up with a few items. You can call me Scribbled, Lore or S.L.. I'm one of the regulars around here (most of the time!).

If you check around the charity forum there are some other threads where you can pick up an outfit for new users but if you're happy with the item you got from Crow then I encourage you to jump into questing feet first! It can be a lot of fun.

Dottie Mae Evans 08-15-2011 05:10 PM

I see you already been welcomed by everyone, LeannaAnne. I am Lizzy and I welcome you to Menewsha and to this thread as well. I see Crow greeted you and Scribble did as well. :D! I hope you have a wonderful time here.

Saravi Boo 08-15-2011 05:13 PM

Hello LeannaAnne! I'm a regular as well, though I may be poofing do to life issues for a bit soon. Can I call you Anne?

I would be happy to help you come up with an avi or too provided my internet holds out.... ^_^' If it doesn't I'm sure someone else will jump in to help you.

Hi Lore! *huggles* Amazingly, I still have power this morning. Not sure how long it will last but I'm enjoying the AC for now. Still plotting ways to cook without electricity. ^_^' And to store food since our large cooler seems to have vanished. :headdesk:

Hi Lizzy! You ninja'ed me. lol

Dottie Mae Evans 08-15-2011 05:21 PM

lol, Hey Boo. ^_^; Hm... did you call a county agency to see if they can help you with your light bill? I know in Florida, some county agencies do that for you. PM me if you want me to Google information for you. :)
