http://www.menewsha.com/img/56285/7d...cda6e73a30.pngDariaMorgendorfer Hey folks! You may have seen me on such shows as "Beavis and Butthead" and MTV's "Daria". Now, I make my happy little home here on Menewsha, bring sarcasm and humor to all it's good little girls and boys. I am really looking forward to seeing what you all come up with! Helpful hints from Daria: Be creative! Originality goes a long way with me. I have a huge sense of humor, so if your avatar makes me giggle, you probably have a winner. Please no icky avatars (i.e. pain, torture, bloody, etc.) This should be fun so, above all else, have fun! http://www.menewsha.com/img/81884/c5...2d7078842d.pngLinnea Yo, Linny here, your friendly neighborhood color coordinator. I've been around Mene for a while now and have come far in terms of colors and layers and I have learned from the best Mene has to offer. Now it's time to put my eye to good use! Show me colors and show me creativity! Do it and reap the rewards! Helpful hints from Linnea: Please, please, PLEASE remember to follow the directions! That being said, I really like to see clever ways of using items and neat ways of layering. Doing what everyone else is doing is boring. Be bold! Rules
Prizes Prizes are as follows: First place: 5,000g Second place: 3,000g Third place: 1,000g |
Old, New, Borrowed, Blue! :: A Colors Contest
Yay! it's a wedding so let's get pretty! In the spirit of wedding bliss this colors contest is going to pay a little homage to the old saying about the bride wearing something old, new, borrowed and blue. The only colors allowed this time are: white, blue, gold and silver. No black, no teal (as it will be considered more green for this contest) and no off whites. As usual, hair, eyes and equippable skin must match the color requirements. I think that's it for this time! Nice and easy, yes? [yes] Any questions just ask!

It is the signing of a "solemn and sacred social contract" that is agreed by both the groom and bride. A trustworthy Muslim, such as a Qadi (a state appointed Muslim judge), officiants the Nikah ceremony. Traditionally, the bride will wear a red gharga and the groom will wear a white sherwani. In the days leading up to the wedding, close friends of the bride (typically all women) will go to the bride's home where they will dance and sing all night. This is known as a dohlki, and can last a night, a few days, or even a week! During the dohlki, the women will bake sweets and cover the bride in ubtan, a mixture of minerals and oils used to lighten the bride's skin. This will sometimes lead to ubtan/food fights.
