2. What Species do you make the most designs of?
3. What's your favorite traits of said Species? and why?
4.How often do you enter a unofficial design contest? and win the contest?
5. Pet peeves of contests?
6. One specific design theme your good at?
7. Design theme's your bad at?
8. Favorite design theme/contest theme?
9. How good are you at basing a design off a picture?

1.What do you use the generator for?
All of them :p
2. What Species do you make the most designs of?
Probably Nyvenes but I try to make it even
3. What's your favorite traits of said Species? and why? (doesn't have to be long)
I like Torn Wings because it works with a lot of the designs I do on Nyvenes
4.How often do you enter a design contest? and win the contest?
I have entered one design contest, but its not over yet, so Im not sure
--these mainly apply to contests--
5. Pet peeves of contests? (someone can't post/resize a design, contest host forgets, the rules, etc)
I mainly get annoyed because I cant post pictures even if Im on a computer and I have no idea why. Other than that I get annoyed when the host forgets the deadline
6. One specific design theme your good at?
I like to think Im good at designing themes based on animals and foods
7. Design theme's your bad at?
Im bad at trying to design things off of song lyrics and snippets of writing and things like that
8. Favorite design theme/contest theme?
I dont have one yet
9. How good are you at basing a design off a picture?
I think Im pretty good

1. Making designs that come to me!

2. Lighiras by far.

3. I love flame wings, autumn dragoon helm, night glow, deinonychus, appaloosa, ghostly shadows, ancestral deity cape, and ancestral deity runes.

4. I enter the seasonal fest one and occasionally others. I've never won or gotten a design picked.

5. When people vote for their favorite species instead of how good the design is.

6. I'm pretty good at making designs based off stories or interesting reference photos.

7. Anything super vague with no reference photos, like 'beach' or 'forest'.

8. I like themes with reference photos, or just interesting, based on your interpretation titles, like 'waterfall in a fallen forest'.

9. Depends on how good the reference photo is. I prefer deeper, meaningful photos over generic ones.

1.What do you use the generator for?
creating designs and seeing what ones i make are most liked and what ones are flunks. (while writing this i go to check designs...)
2. What Species do you make the most designs of?
i'd definetly say zolnixi and qitari at the moment.
3. What's your favorite traits of said Species? and why?
for nixis i'd say G2s, G3 advanced runes, all M1s, most of M2s, M3 spirit wings, leaf wings, and feathered wings (tips) and both dragon wisp and cute witch triat sets.
for qits i love G1 okapi, lightning bolts, snowflake runes, G2 turtle shell scales, faded scales, G3 monarch, raccoon, tri-colored, M1 spring flowers, jeweled ribbons, peacock armor, M2 fire mane, luxurious locks, braided mane, storm mane, M3 feathered wings, stardust wings, sugar plum wings
4.How often do you enter a design contest? and win the contest?
for non-official design contests, it's about a 50-50 chance of me winning or losing.
for official ones, so far a 0% chance....
5. Pet peeves of contests?
when the contest creator has an "extended break" from their contest and announces the winners a few weeks after said end date.
6. One specific design theme your good at?
dark themes or specific holiday themes
7. Design theme's your bad at?
ones with set color pallets you have to use or ones that restrict you to only a certain set of traits
8. Favorite design theme/contest theme?
free-for-alls
9. How good are you at basing a design off a picture?
i'm 75% good at it (i can do galaxies, leaves, animals, gems, but iffy on everything else)

2. What Species do you make the most designs of?
probably ny'vern at the moment

3. What's your favorite traits of said Species? and why?
I don't realy have one in general but i do think that the cristaline gem are interesting, it alow to add a way to put a color out of the general schem to the designe without breaking the vibe to it.

People that take the designes of others, especialy when it's not seen in time.

6. One specific design theme your good at?
Water or magic related design tend to work well with me

7. Design theme's your bad at?
I tend to strugle a bit with pastel or pale designs in general, some of them turn great but most of them dont.

8. Favorite design theme/contest theme?
I don't realy mind, as long as it isn't too focus on one thing and allow me to play around the subject

9. How good are you at basing a design off a picture?
I manage it without too mutch dificulty depending on what the picture is.

1.What do you use the generator for?
I use it to kinda get my stress and anger out making color pallets.It's pretty fun
2. What Species do you make the most designs of?
Huh,I think my top three are Kelpari,Ny'venes and Zolnixi for some reason
3. What's your favorite traits of said Species? and why? (doesn't have to be long)
On both the Ny'vene and kelp i love the Galaxy trait due to the fact that most of the time you can get wonderful coloration,as for the Zolnixi.It's probaly a tie between The feathered tail and the Shaman mane
4.How often do you enter a design contest? and win the contest?
I usally just go do them.Moslty i dont get top 3 or anything but entering them does help me get feedback 50% or the time
--these mainly apply to contests--
5. Pet peeves of contests? (someone can't post/resize a design, contest host forgets, the rules, etc)
When i can't do 250 size images on my phone.>~< it's really annoying.Also when people give a theme like.Oh fruits.My brain goes and makes 40 somewhat ideas and then i can't choose.
6. One specific design theme your good at?
Ones that deal with dark colors with a accent of a bright one
7. Design theme's your bad at?
Plants....cause i'll challenge myself to not use the plant based mutations.

Probaly pastel or fall
