Naomi is a user who has taken over the Couriers of Flight Rising in what appears to be a glitch.

 But that’s not all she is. If you search for her in user search (she’s in Shadow flight to narrow it down) you’ll see she has over 15 million dragons, and the number is growing fast. 

Also, search for exalted dragons in dragon search, every single one of them will say they are a part of Naomi’s clan. 

Naomi is user 0. Her account doesn’t exist and neither does her profile dragon. Clicking on it will bring you to a 404 page. But Naomi isn’t just an account created to hold exalted dragons. She can’t be. Because of Willow. 

Willow is one of Naomi’s children with Coal, another exalted dragon. You can view Coal’s exalted page, but clicking on Naomi will bring you back to the 404. Willow is the only child of Naomi that is not exalted. Coal is dragon 25343. If you bring that back a number, to dragon 25342, you get a 404. Run that number in the scrying workshop and you’ll see Naomi. 

Willow is our proof that Naomi isn’t a storage account. She was someone, and Naomi and Coal are probably her progens. She bred her dragons and sold one of them. She even changed flights at some point, seeing as Naomi and Coal are Arcane and she is currently listed as Shadow. Which means 1 of 3 things. 1: Staff stole an inactive account and used it to store all exalted dragons and it’s somehow become unhidden, simultaneously taking over the account that handle the couriers. 2. This is the work of a hacker. 3. Someone is very upset at being exalted.

However, the fact remains that clicking on Willow’s mom leads you to a 404 page. Which means Naomi is still out there. Somewhere. 

Naomi’s dragon profile is still a 404.

She’s still out there.

Aaaaand number 3 out of an undefined amount of my FR tutorials! This one highlights how to price art for FR money which can be a pretty controversial subject so I tried to highlight both the good and bad. 

Recipes for the Toxin and Poison genes.

Some of the newest FR colours.

So, I made a quiz! It’s a one click poll, just select your Flight and House combo and hit vote. Then we’ll get a nice bar graph showing us who is where!

(If you want to see the results without voting you can do that here, though I dunno why you would?)

If you’re anything like me, you’ve abandoned most image hosting sites in favor of tumblr posts. You can resize the image right there in the url! Who wouldn’t want that?

But you may have noticed your images disappearing when posted off-site. :( In my case, dragon bios.

A ton of my images that previously worked fine just stopped. >_> I thought I would have to reupload all of them, and was very much not looking forward to this. But I just figured out a trick and figured I would share.

First, find the image in your code.

There’s a number in the url right after https://

That’s what you need to change. Mine have all been 30-33.

Change it to 41.

Hit submit, and your picture should display again.

Going to compile all the templates, I guess.

inkdrgn replied to your photo:trove’s new description featuring adoptable…

can you do a tutorial on how to do that?

Sure! It’s really not too complicated, I picked it up from someone’s accent shop that was laid out really nicely with columns.

The basic codes you will need is:
