Double, · double, · toil · and · trouble

Dear toilntrouble members,

I no longer have the time or the desire to run this community. The other mods have many obligations and are not available to take over the community. So, if anyone would like to take the controls, feel free to comment to this post and let me know and I'll make you a maintainer. I will not be staying on as a mod or a member. Kerry is also backing down from the mod position... not exactly sure if hezzy_4 will want to stay on to help, you'd have to contact her.

I'd like to say a HUGE thank you to all the fantastic artists and writers who helped to make this community a lot of fun.

*special thanks to myrafur for drawbling time after time (even when you really didn't want to). I truly appreciate it.

thank you to myrafur for drawing again.

Hello all. Please do not take this as a 'waaah, no one's playing with me' rant. It's not! I'm simply curious as to why no one has been participating and debating on what to do with the community.

I'd like your opinion, please...

Poll #655823
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: None, participants: 9

Regarding weekly challenges...

The main reason you don't participate is

What are your suggestions for the community

Is this thing on? *crickets chirp*

I hope you're out there, because I bring you a drawble by the beautious bronze_ribbons

Btw--I still want drawbles! You got 'em, I wants 'em. I'll hold them for future challenges (like next week). You see how much faith I have in you ppl. I just know someone is going to drawble for me...right?

*smiles prettily*

Hello all! The comm has been mighty quiet lately. I know...holidays. I've been mad busy myself, hence the lack of challenges posted.

Our Drawble Wench is up to her lovely lady lumps in other responsibilities, so I am looking for artists (or close facsimile) to draw the next (and future) challenges.

Come now, don't be shy. We don't need the Mona Lisa, just a simple 300 X 300 gen drawing (not character specific) to inspire the drabblers.

Anyone who would like to take this challenge, please comment here and let me know. We can then communicate via IM or email. I'll take as many people who want to apply. I will use the (tons of) drawings that I'm certain to receive ;) in order of arrival. ie: the first one will be challenge #15 and so on...


Much love and appreciation for her furtabulous contributions goes out teh myrafur (who of course is MOST welcome to submit more drawbles whenever her schedule allows)

Way to neglect the comm, Sam.

Um...yeah, sorry about that.

To make it up to you, I made a drawble for you to drabble.

( I may need to apologize again )

I just realized that it was Thursday and then I realized that I never put up a new drawble for last week. Teh fur is not around and I have to go to work, plus I'm busy harassing her to do this other much more important drawing for me.

Soooo....I fooled around in PS and did the drawble myself.

*disclaimer* I am by no means trying to pass this off as art or myself as an artist. I am fully aware that I have no clue what I'm doing.

That being said...I just wanted to get something up.
