I've had this little puffball for over a week now and he still doesn't have a name! Usually I have no problem coming up with names, but I'm at a loss here! He's a pure white lionhead bunny with blue eyes. He's super soft, and just the cutest little thing!

I was thinking maybe something regal and ridiculous since he's a lionhead, or maybe something that ties in with his blue eyes. "His Majesty Prince Sapphire" was one I was kicking around Thought about naming him Swiftheart after the rabbit from Care Bears, but...he's a little too round and fluffy for a name like that. If he were black or gray I'd call him Nimbus. (Cumulus doesn't have the same ring to it! )

I need a name ASAP-- I've just been calling him "Mr.Buns," and I don't want that one to stick!

Let me start off by saying that I know absolutely nothing about makeup. I never wear it-- no desire to. Which is probably just as well, because I'm one of those lucky individuals whose acne stuck with them even after those awkward high school days, and I know makeup isn't the best thing for acne. I'm in my mid-20's now and still have terrible skin.

 While I don't appreciate it at all, I can live with it, EXCEPT for three days a year when I'm cosplaying at my favorite anime convention. I do want to hide my blemishes and acne scars as much as I can while I'm parading around dressed as princesses and such. My skin also gets oily and shiny very quickly, so I'd also like to cut down on that as well.

In the past, I've used a mineral foundation that I got at Costco a couple years back. It works a little bit-- evens out my skin tone a little, but doesn't help tons. If I put much on, then I just look powdery, and all those little fine, nearly-invisible facial hairs are suddenly skin-toned and much more visible. But if I put less on, it doesn't do much to cover blemishes.

I know there are plenty of makeup-savvy ladies on this forum. Does anyone have any recommendations? Brands to try? As specific as possible would be great because I'm very very makeup-inept. I know you usually get what you pay for, but I'm hoping to find something that's not very expensive, as I'll only wear it, literally, 3 days a year. Help, I have no idea what I'm doing!

Hi all! I know we have a lot of readers on the forum, and wondered if any of you had any suggestions for good sites to swap books.

I've tried out a couple in the past, and to be honest their names are usually so similar that I forget which ones are the ones I've tried and which ones I've only read about.

I'm looking specifically for a site that lets you trade books directly. I don't like the pay-it-forward point system that most of the sites seem to have. I tried it once. Traded away a couple of new popular YA books. Got a couple of points to request new books, great. Went to request books from my list....and all the good ones had waiting lists several thousand people long. I was able to get an older book off my list, but never did find anything I wanted to get with the points I'd gotten from my other book, so I essentially ended up just giving that book away. (I think that site may have been PaperbackSwap?)

There was another site I was a member of that I actually liked. It matched you with other people (sometimes two other people, to make 3-way trades possible) and you traded a book you had for a book on your want list. It was great. Only problem I had with that one was that there were a couple of books that I really wanted to get rid of that weren't on the site's list (too new, maybe?) so I couldn't list them to trade them away. Also, it seems like that site eventually shut down. I can't seem to find it anymore.

Every so often I go on a big book binge. I buy a bunch of new books, carefully selecting them based on reviews from Amazon and Goodreads. And usually, despite my careful research, the majority of them suck. But I'm left with a handful of books that are new and apparently popular, that I'd love to trade away rather than just donating (being brand new and all) or keeping them around collecting dust.

So, readers, does such a site exist? Is there still hope that I can trade away my extra copy of Insurgent and get something back for it that was written in the last decade? Or are The Raven Boys and Die For Me destined to sit on my shelf until the end of time, because I can't bring myself to send my shiny new hardcovers off to a garage sale?

They came in a bag that also had Strawberry Shortcake and Quints dolls, so I assume they're from the 80's or 90's. I was sure that the pink thing was a Snugglebum, but it doesn't look like any of them. The blue doll looks very Kenner, but I can't place her, either. I looked through Ghost of the Doll and didn't find either of them, though I certainly could have missed it.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

I hope this is okay to post here...

Ok, so my tiny, dinky little 10g kitty wings put me 10g over the limit for the "cheaper" shipping from Camellia Dynasty and into the next shipping bracket, which is kind of heinously expensive :C Is there anyone else who wants anything from Camellia Dynasty and wants to get together for a group order, or is there a group order already going on that I could get in on? I know a pony forum probably isn't the best place to ask, but I don't have many other options

(Same goes if anyone's planning an order from Leekeworld....beautiful wigs are sexy but $22 shipping is not )

Rejoice, I'm not dead! I got a full-time job a year ago, and have had very little energy or motivation to draw at all since then But it's a new year and  I'm trying to be better about drawing this year!

Bouncy was an experimental picture I did this afternoon because for the first time in ages, I actually felt like drawing. I wanted to practice a couple of different coloring techniques that were a little fancier than the plain cell shading I usually go with for my pony pictures.

I think she came out okay; I hope you guys like her!

(And to the lovely member who is still waiting on her commissioned piece from me, I promise it will be ready soon!)

Hey all I know we don't have many members in Japan here, but I thought I'd give it a shot. I'm looking for an item (well, three items, technically...) that I'm having trouble finding online both in stock and with reasonable shipping costs.

I'm looking for three little Tamagotchi accessories called "deco pierces" that are little charm-like things that plug into the front of the Tamagotchi. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=TOY-IPN-04104
(Besides the heart-shaped accessory, there's also a star-shaped one and a jewel-shaped one I'm looking for.)

I know it's a stretch, but if anyone happens to be over there and can find all three accessories, you'd have my undying gratitude I know there's a Tamagotchi store in Harajuku where I'm sure they can be found. Other than that, I have no clue, but I can't imagine they'd be too terribly hard to find. I hope.

(And to the member who posted that thread about Tamagotchi a few months ago and started this whole thing, my wallet would like to say that it hates you. But I am having fun with my three-but-soon-to-be-four new Japanese Tamagotchi XP)

I didn't get much response when I asked last year, but we've gotten lots of new members since then, so I'll ask again this year....anyone going to Fanime this weekend? I'll be there from Thursday night through Sunday afternoon. My costumes are....still in the works, but I have one pony-themed one that should be done on time If any other Arena members are going, I'd love to meet up!
