I’m not normally a fan of purple, but after seeing this lovely piece I changed that attitude in a hurry. Beautiful work! If i had extra money I would bid on this one. Love the name too. 🙂
July 7, 2014 at 4:20 pm in reply to: Report Windstone Fakes/Knock offs/Infringment Pls read first #915285Not sure about this one. Looks like two sculpts put together then modified slightly. Is worth reporting? I guess I have no life because somehow I keep finding these knock-offs. LOL :p
The Windstone Facebook page calls this photo “Quest 15 prizes”, don’t know if they really are. 🙂
Very cute! Love the natural colors.
Wow, I can’t believe that guy said that to you, but then again if the people in your town are like the people in mine, I can. 🙂 Must be a small town thing…maybe.
Squeak. LP autumn leaf dragons. Love to see the fledge in this color scheme. More autumn leaf curlies….when there’s time and resources of course.
I’m not sure why the majority of people in my small “city” carries a chip on their shoulder. So much for southern hospitality. Lived here all my life and having traveled to other places, the people were so much more pleasant by comparison. Even the tourists will agree with this. There are no manners here. San Francisco was ranked in the top ten rudest cities in the US, but i did’nt see that when i went (3 times.) Rude in SF was nice in comparison to the people in my town. There is no reason for them to act that way. I’m so tired of it, but i don’t have resources to move.
That being said, everybody here on the forum has been so nice and helpful. It’s so refreshing and i look forward to new posts/threads. So thank you everyone for being the greatest collection of awesome people I’ve come in contact with. I’m not being sarcastic. I really mean it. 🙂
Sorry for your loss. No words will ease the pain of loss, human or animal. It will always hurt, but over time it’ll hurt less. I hope you can find a sculpt you like so you can look upon it with pleasant memories of your cat.
September 16th. Year of the dragon. Virgo.
Congrats on your first Windstone. He’s a handsome one and what a steal too.
Like everyone else said, can’t have just one. You think you’d be good with just one then you think, maybe one more and before you know it you’ll have forty. 🙂
Me too. Got it at 1:11 central time. Strange.
Welcome to the forum! My day has been good and I hope your day has been good too. :bigsmile:
June 29, 2014 at 1:58 am in reply to: Help! Need GF, Vegetarian, & Vegan Recipes / Tips on Reducing Sugar Intake/ Portion Control #914876I don’t think I can be too strict with a diet like that at first. For me personally, it would set me up for a hard fall later on.
I try to avoid processed oils as much as possible because I suffer from adult acne. I’ve found out through trail that corn syrup and corolla oil will cause my acne to flare up something terrible. Soy will too and it messes with my hormones, like you mentioned earlier. I was told a story about a woman who raised her daughter on a soy heavy diet and now, as an adult, her daughter sufferers from a lot of health issues. Their doctor said it was the soy. So if I eat soy, it’s in small amounts. It difficult to escape it completely because it’s in a lot of foods.Growing up, one of my friends had a severe food allergy for corn fructose. Soy, wheat, gluten, and corn fructose are in practically *everything* these days. So it was very difficult for them to find hardly anything she could eat, and I imagine that for you or for anyone trying to avoid any of those products it’s a very difficult time. (Heck, I looked at the back of the sauce I was recommending for a recipe to you the other day, and the very *first* ingredient involved gluten. 🙁 I felt pretty bad.) I don’t know much, or hardly anything, about food production, but the heavy prevalence of these things in the food we consume seems like overkill.
For sure! These ingredient are very difficult to avoid unless you go an a diet much like Kim described. They say American foods are the worst. I wouldn’t know because I’ve never been abroad for comparison (outside the U.S. I mean). My uncle liked to say Kraft American cheese slices were 1 molecule away from being plastic. And they market a lot of that unhealthy stuff towards kids. Then there’s the things marketed as “healthy” like Sunchips. They are not. Shameful. Even the things you wouldn’t think would have those bad ingredients in them do. Puffed rice cereals have some kind of preservative that’s used in tire making apparently.
I used to eat Starcrunch patties when I was a kid. They’re made by Little Debbie I think? Anyway, it had been years since I had one and I thought I’d get one. Looked at the ingredients list on the box and wholly molly! Was I reading an ingredients list or a book prologue? Needless to say, I didn’t get any of those. Heh. You’d think with all these things I have to avoid I’d be thinner. LOL. It must be the sugar and portion size.Don’t feel bad. I appreciate you taking the time to help and post some info. I’ve learned some things from your posts too and taken notes. Feel free add more info if you like. 😉 Besides, I would have read the ingredients on it before using. I don’t have allergies to gluten (I don’t think. Unless IBS can be considered an allergic reaction.), but I was advised to avoid it due to family health (or lack there of) history. No recipe is set in stone. Actually, I don’t think I ever follow a recipe exactly. I tend to modify them to meet my tastes/needs. Uh, that is when I do cook meal based off a recipe, which isn’t too often. I need to change that. :p
The bigger sculpts usually get used for bigger quests – (i.e. ones that require more work versus the random draws. 🙂 Such as photo contests and the like – the harder the quest, the better the prize in general).
I doubt I’ll get a little rock dragon or an autumn leaf prize – those pieces tend to be pretty high value on ebay and in the store. 🙂 Though one of the autumn leaf limited production pieces if they were on a seconds cart might be possible (kitty wizards, frog wizards, large wizard, and curlie I think).
Though – I did get a barnswallow emp, so all things are possible! 🙂
Ah, okay. Forgive my ignorance for I am a freshman Windstone fan. Still leaning. 😉 I didn’t know there were different difficulty levels for quests. That’s awesome!
While I have favorites, it’s like others have said, “I’ll take any free Windstone.” They’re all awesome. :bigsmile:
The barnswallow emp sounds great!

I’m a huge fan of natural color schemes so if there’s an opportunity to grab a few of those for the quest prizes, yeah. That autumn leaf pumpkin rock dragon was just, WOW! Anyone else want to jump on the autumn leaf band wagon? 😉
