The Start of a New Beginning

(to see the image above in a larger view, click here)

 You may look at this photo with torn feelings, maybe, "They all look so different." "What is wrong with her outfit." "Are they serious?"  Even more-so, "What is up with that bird?!" Or maybe a joyful look towards the reveal of our 'family' photo and its graphics. No matter what you feel, just know so much is coming to the table.

With the blessing from Noelle and the guidance we soaked up from Noelle & Isabella's print onto MDM, we redesigned and refreshed it to thrive again in the blogging community. 

Though we over-shot the opening date by a long shot due to so miscommunication, people (including myself) losing the desire to make improvements, and failure to find a graphic specialist who we could put up with as well as if they could actually deal with us, but finally, we got there, the reason waited for ALL the dolls to be finished is because we wanted to arrive as a family, together. And though we are all so different in our style, personalities, and even our looks, we share one goal, to entertain and show our views, discussions, dramas, and whatever else we damn well please to have a ball writing for you guys.

Now, I, myself, can tell you it such a roller coaster of hair pulling work to get to this point, and its worth it. From the start when decided to pull in some new talent to write, people who I barely knew but saw them write amazing work which I hope to see here, and they end up being my new best friends as well as the current staff of MDM, and no, its not because of friendships they are here, they are here because they are smart, witty, and have a huge imagination as well as an intriguing personality that shown to us which granted them a spot here even before I knew them as personally as I do now.

And for those who are down in the dumps if they couldn't write, don't be sad! We are planning to add more additions to our collection in the near future! But first we wanted to find a little fresh meat before we load up MDM right after just renewed it, if that makes since.

Now be expecting brand new posts, ideas, and much more starting this Monday! 

I am a bit busy this weekend, and like Aislin said before, she got married last Friday and is still a honey-mooner, so the blog will be on hiatus still until then.

Have a lovely weekend!

Love, Dei

Blog Layout Update

Hey, this is just a quick post from me to anyone who had problems with the width of the blog before.

And for those who didn't have that problem, the blog was too wide for the background we had in place for people whose resolution size or browser didn't fit that, so what I did was made the blog smaller, that way it should fit just about any screen (other than phone/tablet screens).

Whether or not you had this issue please in the comments tell me how the blogs size, the layout, and any other issues you may or may not have with it, and please tell me if it fits your screen.

Thank you, love Dei.

Edit: Also, if the problem is not fixed or now a problem for more people, then I am going to put it back to its original size, so sorry to those who says its off, but it may be your browser like I said before.

This post is going to explain a couple of things so that Dei(hopefully) won't be badgered with questions during my absence. 

 ICÔNE is a blogger account that represents both Deidra and myself. When MDM was created Noelle and Isabella used it for the same purpose. If you take a moment to view a few of the first posts, you will see that. ICÔNE will continue to post, as it is primarily used to convey information related to things that you would not see in regular lifestyle posts. For instance, the poster series, and results of the MDM Radio Show Poll.

Speaking of the poster series, they have all been revealed. The three writers(Cian, Gladis, Sofi) that we have added have already been revealed. So you should not be expecting anymore posters. However, all of the banners(for old and new writers), will be revealed soon, all at once. Please be patient, we're busy.

Lastly, as usual, the commenters have expressed that we aren't posting as much as we should be. All I have to say is—that isn't your decision to make. We value your opinions and we try to implement as many suggestions as possible. However, the frequency of our posts is not something we can always change.

This blog is something we do for fun. And while I'd love to be able to post daily, I have a life outside of Stardoll. And the past fews months have been especially busy. This may not be something you want to hear, but after today I won't be posting here at MDM until sometime after the first of May. I'm getting married on Saturday and Sunday morning I will be leaving for my honeymoon. 

So that just leaves Dei in control. As you may have guessed, she has a life too. So please be a bit more understanding when you don't see MDM cranking out posts on a daily basis. We are not robots that sit at a computer and wait to act on your desires. And if that realization pisses you off, that's just too damn bad.
