Name: Hyper Lover
Emote Idea: A Female/Male Head being excited for V-Day. "OMG I want chocolate I want chocolate!!" and then a male/female emote throws a Chocolate heart in her/his mouth. Then the Female/male emote Smiles and grins like this: mrgreen
Why to be chosen: I know some girls/boys get hyper in V-Day waiting for the day they recieve chocolate candy hearts, sometimes compete who gets the most too. So I thought mabe we can have a Female/Male emote [which ever a user chooses] either one being "Hyper wanting chocolates." and the other "Throws it into his/her mouth with this expression." stare
Ending Caption "Happy Saint Valentines Day!"

~I don't care about the prize, my prize would to see it come alive!!

Name: Blow Kiss
Emote Idea: A male or Female head blowing kisses the kisses would blow up and cover the emote screen and on it would say "Happy Valentine's Day!" or it could be "You just got a kiss from enter you name here
Why to be chosen: Because everyone is excited on Valentine's Day to see who will send them cards or kisses or even hugs.

P.S If you don't understand then pm me then I'll try to explain it in better detail.

Name: Well.. I'm not very good with names but for now I'll just call it Stupid Cupid [I know its a song x.x]. If it makes it [which I doubt] you should probably change it xD
Emote Idea: Well I'm thinking an avvie opens a card and drops dead. Why? Because Cupid shot an arrow into his/her heart. [Optional:: On the side, a guy is gogling at the girl because, well, cupids arrow is cupids arrow. It still makes people love each other, dead or not! xD]
Why to be chosen: Well of course you don't have to choose it but I entered it because.. well this sounds weird but I feel like I owe something to you, whether its helping by giving ideas or something else because I just love the head bump you made!


commentCommented on: Sat Jan 06, 2007 @ 01:09am
Well that part of cupid shooting an arrow in the heart could be a problem since my emotes are just floating heads XD No heart in there, in fact, how they live is impossible, but regardless, maybe shot in the head?

the cupid idea could work...

Name:cupid de locke (after a smashing pumpkins song)
Emote Idea: avatar head with a bow & heart arrow, shooting the arrow. pretty much just pull the string and arrow flies, possibly hit another avatar in the head? or not, dunno.
Why to be chosen: cuz cupid is cute and innocent...

Name: Secret Chocolates

Emote Idea:A boy or girl looking forward at the screen with a blush on their face. (Could like just make the cheeks like this pink thing on here I think if you wanted 4laugh ) Then they look side to side like the ninja emote ( ninja ) making sure that its clear for them. Then they hold up a heart shaped box of chocolates which is red tied with a ribbon (if you want example pics for anything on my idea just tell me and I'll make up.) then underneathe the ribbon on the box could be the word love in like a cursive writting in white. They move the box above heir face as they blush more or not. Then you suddenly see a poof of like smoke behind the chocolate box and the actual person disappears from fleeing in embarresment. Then the lid of the chocolate box opens and you see inside a secret message from the giver to the gifted of what ever the buyer wants. (you could just like zoom in the inside of the chocolate box which would have some chocolates in it then like a note over the chocolates in pink if its a girl or maybe just white cause of boys or just for boys. Then turn your focus to the note solely on the entire screen which would display the "secret message" or just say like Happy Valentines Day. Please be mine. with like hearts moving up and down the note like this heart ) Then that's it and your signicture thing woul come up how evre you wanted.

Why to be chosen:Cause I think this is a cute idea. It could be pretty universal for everyone and anyone because of the secret meassage and the true nervousness of some people on Valentine's day.

@Kirara-yasha: It sounds doable, that first part anyway, but the zooming in on the contents of the box might be difficult since this is just a simple flip book type program I use. It would take a lot of frames and take a while. I imagine I could try something like it but we'll have to wait and see.

Name: (Uh not good with names) Kiss
Emote Idea: There would be two lil avi heads and one blows a kiss to the other and the lil kiss flies over and lands on the other avi's cheak while the other avi blushes and bats his/her eyes.
Why to be chosen: Because the image of it in my mind just looked so cute^^

Name: Valentines, Candies, and Flowers, Oh my!
Emote Idea: *This is partly inspired by the Valentines last year here on Gaia. The bouquets looked like they "whacked" people in the face if equipped in a certain position if someone sent a person a valentine while holding them. xp *

Idea: Sweetheart 1 gives sweetheart 2 candies(heart shaped box of sweets) and then sweetheart 2 says something like "oh my gosh candies <3!" and then sweetheart 1 eagerly turns and gets flowers saying something like "and I saved the best for last!" and the flowers whack the 2nd sweetheart in the face, knocking them out, you can have their eyes as x.x or something.
Or you can have it reversed, where the flower-knock out comes first and then the first person is trying to give the candies next and then notices....*shrugs*



Why to be chosen: What's love without a little slapstick? blaugh But seriously, it was just an idea I had. Personally I would just like an emote that has the avie blowing a kiss that has a little floating heart since it could be used for a single emote. ^^ P.S. your Link emote is adorable!


commentCommented on: Tue Jan 09, 2007 @ 11:34pm
Name: Be my valentine?
Emote Idea: A girl avi is watching a boy avi. She goes over and pokes him, blushing. He looks over saying, "Whaddya want?" She looks at the ground and asks, yet again blushing, "Be my valentine?"
Why to be chosen: I've always wanted a valentine, but never got the courage to ask, so this is how I'd imagine me getting one xD

I have a cute idea, using the blobby hands.

Name: Squeezy love
Idea: Have two heads, and they embrace with smiles, but one gets over exhuberant and kinda starts squeezing the breath out of the other one.
Little hearts float up from the first avi, while the other one kinda gets blue and flails, but then the first one lets go, blinks, and then looks cute and innocent about the whole thing.
Why Chosen: I dunno, it just seems like a nice quirky thing for v-day, not like the normal über sweet and cheesy emote you'd expect.
I've also seen it in animes, and I find it cute.

Name: da Trinidy: Awww thankies heart

Why to be chosen: cause its a great feeling to get something from a friend ^^

Name: Kawaii!!
Emote Idea: Have your little girl/guy looking all ninja then pan over the there "secret love" who is ninja also. Have your girl/guy start to sneek over to there "secret love" who is doing the same thing. They both arnt paying attention to where they are going and bump into eachother. You see them both blush then the girl/guy goes in for a kiss on the cheek and there "secret love" turns there head too soon and they kiss on the lips instead. They both blush as they nuzzle into eachother and than a heart (or two) floats above there heads. at the end you could have it say "Happy Valentines Day From: Girl/Guy To Guy/Girl"
Why to be chosen: 'Cuz I think its a rather cute idea that could work for any occasion the words would just be changed tiz all!

Name: huggle plushie
Emote Idea:your avi head, with the little hands, hugging a plushie (coco, kiki, gwee,momo,mochi...)with the n_n face and kind of rubbing the plushie up nad down against your cheek, and the plushie blushes, and you both have little hearts coming out of your heads. and maybe it could say below "i love my_____"
Why to be chosen: i love my plushies, and they mean alot to me, so i think it would be cute to show your kiki or coco (or whatever) some valentines day lovin'!!! heart

Interesting ideas all! Though the idea of a profile kiss might be hard Oo; It would work if I used the turned around post and had someone kiss like that. Hmm...*plots*


commentCommented on: Sat Jan 13, 2007 @ 06:00am
Name: Anti-Valentine's day
Emote Idea: One little emote looking very annoyed or angry, another one running up to them all hyper and happy with hearts all of the place holding out roses. Annoyed emote takes roses, looks them over, smiles all innocent like, then proceeds to rip off a thorn and throw it at the happy V-day lover. popping all hearts but one. The one left turns black, first little emote smiles evilly while the other one sobs. (Chocolates would work too now that I think about it. Instead of the thorns being tossed it could be chocolate too)
Why to be chosen: Not everyone is all happy and obsessed over valentine's day, in fact I know a lot of the people I run into on gaia aren't. So you may get a better outcome costumer wise if you have something different and out of the ordinary. All of the other emote/edit shops are going to be so hung over getting the lovey dovey scene in they'll lose the interest of those of us that aren't all that excited over V-day.

Alright. Well I ment like you could see there was like a box then the box would take up the entire screen kinda thing. Ya kno?

Chocolate love

The idea is that a guy/girl avi is reading a book and along comes a guy/girl avi and they blush and nervously make their way towards the other slowly. The one reading the book looks up and looks curiously at the other. The other one looks down and then nervously pulls out a heart shaped box of chocolate and holds it out shaking, not knowing if the other will accept. The other smiles and blushes and takes the chocolate and gives the nervouse one a kiss. The other goes all gooey and hearts pop up around him/her. Then have a bubble pop up saying happy valentines heart with hearts on either side.


It should be chosen because *takes a deep breath* ...........
This isn't a war. This is like humans fighting maggots. Or dragons fighting wolves. Or humans on dragons throwing wolves at maggots

Name: Oh Thoughtless One
Emote Idea: The boy gives the girl a lollipop. she gobbles it really really really fast!! Boy smiles and gives her chocolate. little hearts pop up around girl and she says OMG CHOCOLATE!! She glomps... chomps the chocolate, possibly chocolate around mouth. The boy has a mrgreen smile and hands her... a candy cane. The girl stare stares at him, slowly takes the candy cane, looks at it, and chucks it at the boy. then the girl could say, 'Happy Valentines Day, oh thoughtless one.' or something shorter.
Why to be chosen: Guys can get uber flustered on Valentine's Day, TRUST me.

Name: Pour vous, mon amour! ("for you, my love" for those non-french-speaking people out there)
Emote Idea: Boy emote approaches girl emote; shows/gives her a heart shaped box of chocolates; she blushes and blows/gives him a kiss. The End.
Why to be chosen: It's sweet - I would say it's simple, but I know making animations aren't simple at all, lol. Plus chocolate is the key to my heart so an emote like the one mentioned above would just make my heart melt!

Name: Special Kiss
Emote Idea: a boy and a girl. theres a moment thats quiet. the girls all " sweatdrop " then it goes back to quiet then the boys all " sweatdrop " then it goes back to quiet then the girl kisses him fast then is all " redface " and it's quiet again then the boy kisses her and she's all " eek ... sweatdrop " then they both smile and hold hands then hearts pop-up
Why to be chosen: because i really like your emotes, and it will be fun, and i think it's cute( i think the other ones are cute too), and it's like when your 5 and you like someone and you kiss them and dont really care what the other people think remember that good time *thinks: aww those were the days!* sweatdrop


commentCommented on: Wed Jan 17, 2007 @ 09:39pm
Name: The Soulmates!
Emote Idea: I was thinking of two avatars suddenly looking at each other and a bunch of tiny hearts floating out of their heads, like a "love at first sight" type thing. Then they float to each other lovingly and as they get close a little sign will appear, possibly in one of the avatar's hands, saying "______(name of the person) is my soulmate."
Why to be chosen:I think it's an adorable idea and I'm sure that a lot of people, like myself, who believe in soulmates would love to have one for themselves or have one make for.....their soulmates! heart

Oooh, lots of ideas! biggrin I'll have to shrink down the ideas so they fit into polls at the shop XD


commentCommented on: Sat Jan 20, 2007 @ 05:50pm
Name: "Crazy with Love"
Emote Idea:
1)There's a boy OR girl neutral - he/she looks neutral.
2)A kiss floats up from off screen and lands on his/her cheek (Couple option:could float from another avi <after they make a kissy face 4laugh > off to the right side of the main person )*
3) eek his/her eyes get wide
4) xd he/she then looks excited
hearts replace his/her eyes in a cute face whee as he/she bounces around, (hands flailing?) with great crazy excitement blaugh and little hearts fly around his/her head
(if it's a couple, the 2nd person xp is embarrassed that the first one is SO excited
OR the 2nd person could look smug cool that the main one loves them so much)

<If the buyer decides to do it as a couple, they choose who the 1st person is and who the 2nd person is, providing a nekkid tektek of course!>

caption: "I'm Crazy with Love (for You!)" appears

*another way for the love to work could be:
red or pink kiss (lipstick lips) floats in from out of screen it impacts with main person and when it does, they have a red or pink (whatever colour the kiss is) glow around them. This glow remains throughout. (create the image in photoshop by taking the head, then layer style: outer glow normal. save as jpeg and do your animation work ~ you probably know how to do this already lol ) Yes it's another step, but it is different! I like the idea of "glowing with Love"

Why to be chosen: It pokes fun at ourselves, about when we get *cough* a little too *cough* excited that someone loves us. wink It's that giddy first flush of love...

Name: Poof of Love
Emote Idea: Emote finds a hearted envelope on the floor. Emote picks it up. When emote opens it, there's a red/pink POOF explosion and when the poof cloud disappears, the emote face is covered in kisses. Emote blinks confusedly, then smiles. Message saying 'Happy Valentine's Day' ends emote.
Why to be chosen: Surprises are fun and I got the idea from a previous episode of My Name is Earl, but it had nothing to do with V-Day. xd

Name: Ummm...This is for you...
Emote Idea:Avatar 1, who is holding a box of chocolates behind his/her back, walks over to Avatar 2, who is facing another direction. Avatar 1 taps Avatar 2. Avatar 2 turns around and looks at Avatar 1, who is now blushing. Avatar 1 thrusts the chocolates into Avatar 2's hands and turns around, blushing even more. Avatar 2, who was shocked looks down at the chocolates and smiles. Avatar 2, who is blushing a little, then taps Avatar 1. Avatar 1, still blushing, turns around looks at Avatar 2. Avatar 2 gives Avatar a kiss on the cheek (little heart flies from the kiss). Then they both smile.
Why to be chosen: Because I think it would be cute, and it seems realistic. You know, when you like someone and you don't know if they like you. And you actually summon up the courage to tell them how you feel.

Name: YAY!!! OMYGOSH! V-DAY!!!
Emote Idea: The person(lets refer to this person as person as person A) opens the card, blushes, sorta goes crazy, says something like " *squeal*" or " OMG YAY!!! 4laugh <3", and shows it to another person(lets refer to this person as person B) and person B gets jealous and makes a face like this: stare and has steam coming out of her/his head and says something like "Lucky..." and then the words "Happy Valentine's Day!"aper, and that's pretty much all. 3nodding
Why to be chosen:It happens very often in real life so I thought What The Heck? *shrugs* .
