I just finished Ginger Snap's profile story but I have a few questions for people.

A. I kept her old profile story up there, from when she was a chibi terracoon (Before the revamp, because it looked a lot like she did)

B. The new story is on top and I haven't edited it for grammatical mistakes yet, but would like to know if it's spotlight worthy?

C. I literally have no ideas for graphics for the profile. Since she isn't a typical blood red bed I don't want blood and skulls or a super dark layout. Her story is the most important.

D. Is it weird to have a cat minion on a cat?

I'd like any constructive criticism you can give me.

Curiously cute, cuddly and deadly, Madison would love you to hug and kiss her, or else.

Um...I remember this story. It's sad. Grandpa was pretty bloodied up wasn't he? Aside from a few mechanical errors and spelling, keep the story. Will you be making a background and overlay?

Yes, I am a role-playing character.

I don't really want to, since the story is like 110% the focus here. IDK if that will keep me from getting a spotlight though.

It will. A story alone is not enough, at the very least it should have some kind of a layout. Doesn't have to be multicoloured, glittery and jumping through hoops, you can keep it very minimalistic, but it's like typography.

@Sapphira, So like a minimalistic background and some colour would be ok?

Also, how was the story? (It's not edited yet, so I know it has some issues)

The story was heartbreaking. I would like to see some background color and possibly an overlay or custom art of gingersnap.

Alright it's a jammy dodger, but I was promised tea!

Amazing story. You are such a talented writer. As for the background/profile: maybe you could draw the setting of the story, rather than doing a themed profile. The minion is cute so I wouldn't worry about it.

What do you all think now? I'm not really happy with what I had to do with the minion but other than that I feel good.

Do any of you know how to make the big area at the bottom go away?

Oh, quite nice. I do like the direction you decided to go with for the profile. A few little things (I use Chrome btw, so it might not be so for your computer): 1. Ginger's name and such is a little squished next to her picture. You might try scaling the picture down if you can. 2. The minion is adorable but I can't read the name of it. 3. Lovely treasure and profile treasure box but perhaps you could try coding in a hover. I see the items are faded, perhaps you might try a hover that removes the fade and shows the normal colors. 4. The space at the bottom isn't too bad but there is quite a bit of it. Seems like an inch or two.

Just little fixes. You have a wonderful story on her profile and I can't wait to see the final product!
