1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

Do you collect PHOTO's of BJD's?

May 25, 2008

    1. Aah, I used to do that, but I could never remember where the picture I was looking for was located (and sometimes people would delete them) so I just started saving them.
       
    2. I save pictures of the dollies I like too. When they inspire me, when they are just artsy and pretty. When they are my favourite 'molds'. I saved it in my folder and look trough it when I need inspiration or just feel like admiring the pretty things. Always nice to see how other doll owners do things.
       
    3. I save pics of dolls too. I have zillions. lol
       
    4. I didnt used to but I thought I always forget things that I saw[&like] so it's better to save them. So now I have a small collection XD I save those that are pretty, or they are wearing things that I love or maybe they just inspire me ;3
       
    5. Yes, I do :D

      But only the most beautiful dolls :aheartbea
       
    6. Well, I certainly accumulate photos of dolls ^_^; I don't really mean to collect them, but I guess I do! When I see a doll photo I will want to look at again for some reason, I save it and stash it in a 'dolls' folder. Sometimes it's because it's simply a beautiful picture, but more often because there's something I need to recall about it - some perfect detail on a particular doll's faceup which I think I might want as part of a faceup I commission in the future, or a mold which I really like and might want to buy later, or unusual eyes/wig/outfit which I like and maybe wish to track down and buy. All of them are nice to look at, and sometimes when I'm bored I idly sift through my doll picture folder.

      The most common places I seem to end up saving them from are Y!J auctions, limited item sales pages, and the portfolio sites/threads of faceup artists and seamstresses.
       
    7. Yes, I also have a big Doll folder of photos and a fair sized pile of printed out pictures. I'm glad I'm not the only one!
       
    8. I've always had a habit of saving pictures like crazy. If there's a beautiful picture of a BJD I just can't help myself! I've already saved quite a few, despite being pretty new to this :sweat I already have too many pictures as it is *_*
       
    9. Me 2! Althought my Henn is gorgeous enough, but I still love to save others amazing photos.
      I thought it will help to learn how to make my dolls more gorgeous too!!! XD
       
    10. I like to collect photos of BJD dolls! You can make any pose, because of their ball joints! All the photos
      with them are very beautiful and romantic. :aheartbea
       
    11. yes i do, mostly DD's but have started collecting a lot more resin fantasy types lately
       
    12. Yep! I save pictures of all kinds of dolls. I save all the pictures I can find of specific sculpts I like, but also of other random "mystery" dolls who take my breath away. I stalk specific dolls, too, though I won't say who... xD
       
    13. I save pictures of dolls from everywhere. :D Company sites, dA, Flickr, Tumblr, Google, DoA... I don't really have them that organized though. If the faceups are the reason I love the picture I save them in a faceup-inspiration folder, but other then that I just stuff them all in a BJD folder. :)

      When I save pictures of dolls, it's usually because the photos inspires me in some way. Like if a doll wears an incredible outfit and I think that some of those elements might fit to my own dolls, I save the image so I can draw inspiration from it later. :) But sometimes the pictures are simply beautiful and that's the only reason I save them. :sweat
       
    14. oh my gosh yes. My DA is full of BJD Photo favorites, and I have a folder saved with pictures as well!!! I love looking at dolls. It's relaxing for me ^.^
       
    15. I collected a lot of bjd photos, they have their own unique beauty, can not give up! Collected a lot! ! !
      I often copy their paintings. Painting they feel awesome, like you have them!
      I always feel that others are pictures especially beautiful ! (* ^ ﹏ ^ *)
       
    16. Yep, I collect photos too! As I can't have them all, at least I can have their photos! They give me inspiration for my BJDs- clothing, face-ups, themes, etc. I don't store them on the computer, I print them out and keep them in a binder. My own BJD reference book so it seems!
       
    17. I have a tendency to collect company/promotional photos of dolls (& toys of all genres even accessories!).
      I have a huge collection of BJD-promo photos of those sculpts I like or would love to own or just plain enjoy looking at. (:

    18. Heck yes I do. My friends call me a 'digital hoarder', lol.
      I have a folder for every company I like, and sub-folders for the molds*_*
      Its a little nutty, but I do so love looking through them.
       
    19. I save some pictures. Ocassionally, I'll find a picture of a doll I cannot let go of - I know I'll never find it again and it's just amazing, so I save it. My subscription folder on here is also nuts for this reason. XD
       
    20. From time to time. They are usually photos of odd looking or gorgeous dolls. I've also gotten into the habit of saving my own dolls' before photos. As in before I own them. I like to see them evolve as I own them.
