The banner has already been completed, with a green dragon in a style & size that works with the banner... However, the dragon pictures are so so cool; keep sharing! - Trunk TDBs banner has been completed and this thread has transformed into sharing related art. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

silent thunder Posted January 29 Love it all. Thanks for sharing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trunk Posted January 29 yup, diggin' it. the one that's going in the banner is simple, in keeping with the style of the banner and the space available ... so don't expect it to be as magnificent as those being shared. Probably the dragon images that will keep coming out through Ch. New Yr will continue to be ... impressive. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wanted one that embodied some aspects of cultivation, so it's somewhat classic, gold, with a pearl. - Trunk p.s. We've got some time until Feb10 - if one pops up that's better ... Here's what we have currently... Love this! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChiDragon Posted February 4 Today is 立春 the first day of spring in the lunar calendar. It was considered to be the beginning of the year of the Dragon. Even though, it is not the first day of the first month.新春快樂 Happy Spring festival 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zerostao Posted February 5 , It's Time for rabbit to go bye bye. Fare thee well, Rabbit, you've served us well. Thanks for the memories! Whichever sticker has been chosen to acknowledge this Year of the Wood Dragon, it's time to display. Taking a moment to reflect on all of the Years of the Dragon during my lifetime, each of those years continue to shine bright. Each of those years, being momentous, with great significance in my personal life and also the world. High haint no weatherman, yet, I will say this much, in the forecast, there be dragons. And that's coming from the Dog in me. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
