Well, the way "Poofz" worded it made it sound like they looked EXACTLY alike, and that I only changed things like colors.

If your talking about Cat, she is a fan art mod too. And how do you know who declined it?



Yeah, I read it.

I know because I got the PM saying it wasn't accepted. XD

You're making a big deal out of this? I know people who should be making a bigger deal out of this than you. Your fursona has so many similarities to others its not even funny and people who say they don't see it is just saying that so they don't have to deal with problems.

Both of your fursonas are black, have different colored ears on the inside (BEFORE they were both pinstriped on the inside) the tails were rainbow as well, you both have the same hair style and the same scars in the same spot: the chest and the wrists, etc (and before "Whisper" had bandages over its wrists on the same arm as LLE's character). If thats not copying, I don't know what is. But your fursona, throughout its entire history, was just a mixture of OTHERS' fursonas. I noticed. I also noticed you giving zero credit to them half or even MOST of the time, which if you DID give credit, I wouldn't even have a problem with it.

If you didn't copy then thats one HECK of a coincidence. I don't see how hard it is for you to do something original. Its not hard. You're making a big deal out of me not accepting one of your pictures?

Heck, you should be thanking me that I'm forcing you to be creative. If you can draw, you can be creative, but thats NOT what you're doing. You're hardly trying to be original. You're trying to be like LLE and if I were her, I would not be happy. I'd rather you did your own thing and I'm sure she wants you to as well.

Want some advice so that I won't have to "accuse" you? Try giving YOUR fursona some of YOUR traits. If you have brown hair, give it brown hair. If you have a birthmark smeared across your entire face, give your fursona a birthmark smeared across its face. If you have certain jewelery YOU wear, make your fursona wear it. If you have a round or long face, giv eyour fursona a round or long face. See? Not only does it make it more YOU, it makes it more ORIGINAL. If you can be original, you won't feel the need to copy and nobody throws a fit.

(and nice try not giving the option "They look VERY similar" in your poll. That's not very fair)

I honestly didn't think about the poll. I DID, however, think about "They look EXACTLY alike" in it, after I posted it.

And no, half of what you said I was oblivious to. And, it was more than one picture (it was about four).

I'm not trying to start anything for you (note I didn't mention your name?). I was trying to go about this and be respectful in the same matter, and I got opinions on posting the rant as I thought about it.

And Mizzy? She's Gray, not Black. My favorite colors are Black and Red, which is the majority of the colors. My hair, is, of course, brown. Eyes are brown but I like the blue better.

The stritches over the heart? I feel like I've had my heart torn out so many times it's not funny, so I saw it as appropriate. The wrist? How I feel sometimes.

The bandage? Well, I actually didn't think about that one. I was more on the line of "If Whispers hurt herself, this would be it and this is it."

What people tend to over-look about me, is I'm one-tracked. Like now, I'm starting to regret this rant, let alone the mistakes I've made while creating Whispers.
What I mean by one-tracked mind, is that I think about something and that's it. I want it to be a certain way and no other.

So, I apologize to you Cat. I didn't fully think things through, I made a mistake (many, if you think about it), and I admit to it all.

At least though, I did try to change her... Right? Well anywho, she is "personalized" even though the similarities. Those things happen...

No, I just think you've payed so close attention to LLE's stuff that you've got it memorized. Its happened to other people, even without knowing, and you need to break that habit if you're going to continue to do creative things such as drawing. Because its quite tiring seeing the same stuff over and over again -_-

EDITED: TO ADD! You guys ALSO had stitched mouths. I can clearly see the resemblance. Not very nice.

I do not appreciate being called 'weird'. We are here to do our job, also this 'Poofz' does not have access to the fan-art section if they are an articles mod. So it would have been someone else who did not accept your art.

I think they're still too alike. But I think it's something that should be discussed between LLE and yourself... whether or not she/he (?) thinks it's still to similar.

I don't think you'd like it if you made a really original fursona and then someone copied you

No offence.. but I see alot of similarities.. Mostly with Abby Jean & Mizzy (LLE's Fursona.)

1. Both have rainbow tails/arms
2. Both have stars on their tails
3. Both have the 3 hearts on the back legs
4. The hairdo's are almost exactly alike
5. Both have 3 or 4 bracelets on their left arms
6. Both have wings that aren't attached

...and so on.

and, the similarities between Whispers & Mizzy:

1. Both have the X shaped scar in the EXACT SAME spot
2. Again, both have 'rainbow' tails, even though yours only has 2 colors

I'd also like to point out what LLE mentioned in her gallery:

NO STEALING, COPYING, EDITING, OR ANYTHING THAT COULD BE PUT IN HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S. Reason why Abby Jean got accepted and Whispers didn't is most likely because there's more then one fanart mod. What one views as copying others might view as completely different.

I agree with you on this part...
I've learned a lot from Cat's *fursona creating* XD ....I donno why it'd be so hard...why dontchea make a fursona related to you if it's so bugging?...Like your eyes,hair and all if it's your personal one....

I agree with most of people's similarities posts.

what are the two supposed to look like?

I think that's true. And the stitches? After a talk with LLE they were quickly removed. I recently sent her a PM asking if I could keep the current form, and put like an "Inspired By: LLE" on it or something like that.

But, I must apologize for the trouble I have caused for the moderators, and I am terribly sorry. I know, I know. "There is nothing I can say that will change my actions." Or something like that. But at least I DO have some guts, enough guts, to admit that what I did was wrong and that I made a mistake. Because well, it's true.

I know I learned more on the muzzles and hair like Livz's (LLE) than anything else. Everything else was learned through StangWolf and WildSpiritWolf.

Again, I apologize.


DENI ---> Personal? Not really. She was going to be an addition to "The Pack of Pain" (I know lame name) or a small pack I'm creating with Kamots's characters and my own.
If anything, Kirada and Nightmare are my personal fursonas, because people draw me as them more than anything.
I just wanted a character that would be fun to draw, like Mizzy's characters. And well, the new form IS fun.
I'm trying to work something out with Livz so I can keep the newest form.

Again, I apologize.

Why don't you just do more Livi fanart instead of making a Livi clone?

I've though about that. But I'm like, multi-color hating. x3
I have drawn her, though, and I am considering drawing Amaya for her again (because I haven't seen any pictures of her in a while).

And I didn't mean for her to be like a "clone." But, people are entitled to their own opinions, and you ARE a mod who has seen a LOT on this site, so I have no place to argue with you.

YES, I do tend to think I am higher and mightier than what I really am, I guess being the Administrator of my own (low-tech) site has gotten me quite cocky...

-sigh- Click the links, and compare Livvy and Whispers (NEW).
