Freebie Bin Discussion Board!

Posted 7 years, 11 months ago (Edited 6 years, 11 months ago) by Carnatone

A thread to discuss anything related to the Freebie Bin, where Toyhouse users can give characters they no longer feel that spark towards to new homes!

The Bin has gotten such a good reception and several regular users, and I'm super thankful it's turned out this well! Thank you to everyone who's contributed their characters, and to the people that take these characters in!

What this board is for!

-Posting your questions, comments, and concerns about the Bin!
-Discussion of possible rules and general alterations of the main Bin.

-Sharing your freebies! If you've had a good experience with anything you've gotten this is a great place to share it!
-Getting to know some of your other Bin users.
-Anything else at all directly related to the Bin!

What it isn't for!

-Posting your freebies- that's what the bin is for!
-Addressing personal concerns with a specific user or characters.
     If the issue is severe enough, please contact me directly or go to the TH staff.

I tought silver haired one could be Lyle and the red haired one Rufino >w< But of course you can choose what you want to name them >v<

Added to the list!

Generally speaking, I want to see what people think looks best on each character. I'll decide what goes where if someone doesn't care to specify but I want to give them names the group as a whole thinks work best. ^^

I gotta say, I kinda like Lyle and Rufino and want to toss in a vote for that! I like that not only does Rufino relate to the color red, but Lyle brings to mind lilacs which bring to mind purple! I'll probably throw in more of my own name ideas later on though, since I love donating name ideas!

I'd love to draw the companion with lilacs sometime! He's probably a huge charmer who loves handing out boquets, even just as friendly gifts.

I'm looking forward to see what you come up with! ouo

Carnatone

Oof, crud, I got this in late. BUT here they are!

There are two polls, to make the voting process easier to read. But please vote in both, since that effects the prize and the characters themselves!

For the Bin Mascot: http://www.strawpoll.me/10636175

For the Companion: http://www.strawpoll.me/10636188

The poll will be open for approximately a week, at which point I'll announce the new names in this thread and contact the winning entrants!

Carnatone

The results are in!

My laptop completely broke down on me in the interim so this was on hold until I got a replacement. But I'm sure the results will be pleasing to most of you!

Congratulations to the winners, and of course to Rufino and Lyle, who will be getting character pages soon!
Winners are going to be messaged as soon as I'm set up enough to do so here.

aah problem

I have two characters on the freebie spreadsheet that are taken and I can't get in to take them off the sheet >.< my bad

Carnatone

@one-not-angel-here

No problem at all- I've taken them down for you! ^^ If that's not what you wanted please let me know!

Squishy_Ghoul

It is thanks so much!

Drew something for a lovely freeb I got! I need a name for her though D:

Asakura_Michi

@Fehnryr How about Mela? Or Melia? c: I think the names sound colorful and would suit her if you like cx

Fvhn

@twosecondslighter If I were to post some freebs and have the requirement be to share my raffle on Deviantart to get the freeb, would that still fall under free? Or would you prefer I didn't? I just thought I'd check ^^

Carnatone

@Fehnryr

It does feel a little close to not being free since that's asking for advertisement, but I'll allow it! I can't see this adversely affecting the thread itself.

@twosecondslighter thanks! I'll try to keep it super easy and not bothersome <3
