Link - no, not the Zelda kind...

Update: The Egg has hatched!
She has many tails - looks like one for each of the ten comments required :D Thanks again to everyone who visited to contribute a comment.

I didn't have room to explain in the poll what the Egg does, and where it comes from so I'll explain now. These Eggs are adoptable from *DRACODOPTABLES. That particular Egg belongs to the Leaf Drake species, but there are several species availible. My other adopted Dragons from *DRACODOPTABLES include: (left to right; Acharon, Sandalphon, and Viking).



Yes, I bet some of you are wondering why I am adopting these cute dragons; me, the girl who enjoys painting ungirly things and loves Warhammer, and is a bit of a Narutard at times. Well frankly, it's a wonderful group, and I'd rather spend my time commenting and participating with the *DRACODOPTABLES group than put up with forum trolls or the artists on here who think they are king shit on here (I won't be any more specific than that, but I asure you I am not refering to anyone I watch or talk to on DA). That, and I like to encourage people-friendly projects like this - the internet needs more like them; there's not many places children (not that I'm a child :lol: ) can go on the net nowdays without the fear of them being exposed to something they shouldn't. Give them a visit, and you might see why I think it's worth my time.

LINKING!

Guess the intro took longer than expected. Onto the main part - Deviation Linking and how it can benefit you and the deviantART community.

First, what is linking? Well, simply put, it's where you put links to related deviations in your author's comment box of your own deviation. View these deviations to see some examples:

:thumb152727647: A Bill For Murder WIPA dark figure strolls up the walkway towards the luxurious mansion.  Shifting some of his weight around so that his walk would be easier, but still very slow.  After fifteen minutes of walking and pausing, our mysterious figure makes it to the door, and rings the doorbell.  A moment passes before the door opens, in which a lumbering giant of a butler is standing in the doorway.

"State your business."

"I've been hired by the master of this house as an entertainer for the evening."

"Name?"

"Sinister Schlub, actor, murderer, bard, juggler, and otherwise versatile performer.  I'm great at birthdays, funerals, weddings, bar mitzvahs, and other


Some people use hyper links, other use the thumbnails (though you need a subscription to use the thumbnails). You can link to one or many.

If you like the sound of it, why not join the group? :icondalinksystem: You can submit artworks to their gallery which follow the general linking system as seen above. Also, the group has these information videos availible for everyone:



And this is a downloadable PDF by =TheFulkrum


Don't be surprised if I link to some of your own deviations in the near future - I'm slowly going through my gallery and adding links to the descriptions. My folder which has artworks with links is here: [link]

Anyways, thanks again for helping my Egg C:

Lol! No worries, no offence taken :D I was really suprised when I saw her too - first thing that she reminded me of was a Tangela from pokemon. I like the design though, it's very unique.

Well, when the opportunities presents, I can earn her things such as Treasure Chest and a hoarde (the hoardes look kinda like this, but take a while to gather such a large collection: [link]), clothign items (they're new), Charms, Teddy Bears, and breed her during breeding seasons. And of course owners can choose to make fnart and enter in competitions that may arise (I actually won the orange Chubb in a competition). New things are beign released too, such as the Bone Hag who can turn dragons in Essence dragons (a ghosty form of their selves).

So really as much or as little can happen depending on what I choose to do :D
