      Here is my lil beauty! 🙂 She’s just gorgeous! and I didn’t even notice until I took her outside to photograph her.. but her eyes are actually copper with a lil highlight of gold in them (Nice touch, Mel!)




      Now what I can’t help but giggle at, after seeing a photo of the batch, I figured my odds seemed pretty good to get one completely different than my originals.. XD As beautiful as this girl is, she is *so close* to my original silver grey! So I’m putting my new lil beauty up for trade 🙂

      My Original:

        Got my GB Wolf today, hope to take pics tomorrow. Here he is in the class photo:

        Out of the whole batch, he appears to be the only one with a deep dark brown coloring. It really enhances his golden eyes. I’m not sure if I like him though? I was hoping for one with blue eyes, husky or merle markings.

        Ohhh… You got my absolute fave! Interested in a silver grey? 😉

          I have a friend who is trying to submit her PYO’s to the DeviantART group, but they’re not allowing new submissions or something of that sort? Has this been shut down? Or is there something that she may be doing wrong with her posts that isn’t letting her through? – I told her I would ask about it here 🙂

          Oh! I’ve had that happen to me. No worries. Just be patient and if her submissions expire, tell her to resubmit them. Sometimes Melody doesn’t get a chance to go on dA to accept them, that’s all. It’ll happien, just takes a little patience from my experience.

          Good to know! I’ll let her know and see what she says… I stopped posting to dA a long time ago, so I dunno much about it anymore lol

            Back in November, on Facebook, Melody posted a photo of rough versions of two sitting foxes. She said they are about 3 1/2″ tall.

            Same ones, just a lot further on progress 🙂 They’re very cute

              I’ll get photos to you today 🙂 Those should keep you busy for a lil bit! – I noticed you mixed an Odd Ball fox in w the original GB red fox, did you want to try to keep those seperate? (I love seeing the Odd Ball foxes added still, though they’re similar, they are also different enough 🙂 )
              Also, if you get BE’s, do you want AWD’s? Since they’re also all very different?

                My tracking finally updated but it’s still not right. The new expected delivery date is tomorrow (Friday), however the package arrived at the post office this morning. [Yay !] I guess they wanted to leave themselves some margin this time.

                Mine is doing the same thing so I’m hoping it makes it on the truck for today’s delivery. Finger’s crossed! 🙂

                Actually it just updated to “Out for Delivery” so it’s on its way! 🙂

                Mine is out for delivery as well 🙂 Now… more waiting? Lol

                  An EPS file is a Vector file, and Photoshop can save your file in an EPS format. Any fonts you have will need to be converted into outlines though – I know that for sure.

                  I’m not sure about the dot patterns. Perhaps one of the ‘half tone’ effects in Photoshop can be utilized? The ‘shading’ will need to happen as smaller dots and larger ones I think.

                  Unfortunately, I have limited knowledge of Photoshop, but if you have a contact at the company that will produce the screen printing, they may be able to help with questions, and possibly could take your straight EPS file and might have their own art dept to convert it properly for their machinery.

                  I hope this helps.

                  Ohhh… will play with EPS files 🙂
                  Majority of my problem is the half toning stuff I’ve tried, every time I try to get Inkscape to convert the dots, it decides that the dots are absolutely senseless… and blotches everything together in one glorious yuck, lol XD

                    Limit has been lifted! 🙂

                    RATS! I’ve been checking the site for the past two days or so, and checking ALL DAY Today, to catch when the GB Wolves’ limit would be taken off, and wouldn’t you know it – the limit went off when I on my way home and before I was able to check again this evening (not able to until now). Of course, now they’re sold out! RATS!

                    Oh Well, at least I got one GB Wolfie…

                    I was writing my “Help with vector art” rant when they released and they were in carts by the time I noticed.. I never saw one drop out… but as I mentioned in a different thread, probably better I didn’t buy a second, my wallet would have been very upset at me, lol!

                      Today’s packages will be an extra day late too! Our post office had a lot of retirements at one time, then added 18 new people all at once, and switched everyone’s routes around. The old timers say its madness. When all the new folks are trained, the post ought to run a LOT smoother, but right now they are having a wee bit of trouble. :~

                      At least we don’t have to worry about it all long term 🙂 USPS has been fussing with so much lately, I was beginning to worry they made a change someplace that made it more likely to be 3 days than 2 days for Priority.. which is usually fine until you’re trying to wait through a weekend and the postal time since you ordered a GB XD lol… If mine show up tomorrow it would have taken then exactly a week to get here, when I was all ready for them on Monday, lol

                      Monday is a postal holiday – no mail delivery.

                      Good to know! – But I meant last Monday, personally 😉 lol

                      Gotcha. I can’t read and talk on the phone at the same time, apparently 😉

                      Still good info to have for anyone who may expect a delivery on Monday 🙂

                            I missed them entirely… which is probably for the better for my wallet.. Susie, roughly how many were left?

                              All I can think while reloading the page every minute or so… and wondering if I really want to order another or not.. is “Here wolfy, wolfy, wolfy” XD lol

                                Man, USPS really dropped the ball gettin these out of Corvallis and into Portland, it literally took a lil over 24 hours to get from one to the other on my package, and I’m assuming most of these had the same problem.. All of these should have arrived today but because it took a full day to get from one city to the other, there was no hope they’d be making it to other states in time… Will be interesting to see how Loveland does getting it to the door… I know this city gets a LOT more postal traffic because of V-Day (It is Love-land after all, lol!) I know there is a way to have V-day cards/gifts to detour through this town to get it’s postal stamp… or at least used to be… so it’s going to be interesting to see how local packages do, maybe this is the one time I should have shipped to my families house! lol XD (40 miles away)

                                I think the delay from Corvallis to Portland was simply due to the Post Office carrier not getting the boxes to our post office in time for them to leave on the truck that goes to Portland at 5:00. We have a new carrier doing the route. Always add a day to any time quote the Post Office gives you – they CALL the service “2-Day” but that’s its name, not necessarily what the delivery time is.

                                Ah, new carrier might explain it…
                                I really don’t think it’s ever taken longer than two days to get an order once it’s been shipped from you guys to me… also seems strange that it would take 24 hrs to get between to two cities, even with the carrier picking up late… but if there is generally new staff, that could explain a lot

                                  All stock is in carts… will be interesting to see how long these last, if they do at all, lol
