My AP for the week is...

Velvet:



Now you guys know me by now. You have some idea how my addlepated brain works. Kinda. Sorta. ... No? ... Point is, it's public knowledge that I like a good non-avi avi, and an avi that tells a story. Well, Velvet has taken the chocolate and the peanut butter and rolled them into one! ... This is a cool little scene here. Velvet has wonderfully incorporated all these elements together. So much atmosphere. And when I saw it, a story came instantly to mind.

Foolish youth, walking alone on a balmy Louisiana night. Normally, no one ventures out into this bit of the bayou, removed far from civilization. It's not the location that keeps people away, but the legend associated with the place. Tales speak of a powerful voodoo priestess who once lived in this swamp. All were afraid of this old woman, and no one dared cross her. But mysterious, one day she dissipated, and was never seen again... alive. For now they say her vengeful spirit haunts the bayou, and woe to anyone who enters her domain. ... All rubbish, thinks our foolish youth. So to prove his bravery, he enters the swamp after midnight, and finds himself at the mouth of a dark cave. What could be inside? Only one way to find out. This is a grave mistake, the last he'll ever make.

So yeah, good avi. :D

So congrats to Velvet on her fifth star!

Wow I missed this one but its great!!

It really has a mystical vibe to it.

I love all the new things mene comes up with..we wouldn't be able to make such awesome avis.. if mene didn't work so hard to make their items so awesome and multi purpose.

Neph, I super hope you win AP I can't stop drooling over that avi.

Suona, I second that on the hope for Nephila to get picked. The colors and the layering, superb.

I definetly agree.. I hope to see that Avi on the front page 'nods'

Wow awesome avi velvet <3

Gratz...

Where's everyone gone? lol

Wah! Linnea is super deserving of AP, also! So many good avis out right now.

Congratulations to today's winner, LiviInLove:!



Just look at this lovely tropical lady! She looks like a debutante heiress who is taking her school vacation in the Caribbean this year. No matter how hot it gets, she insists on staying proper and poised.

Great job!

Congrats Liv

OMG, thank you!!!
Wow! I totally wasn't expecting that!!

Nice avatar, LivilnLove. I am never poised and dignified.

You look so great Livi!
