Now time for a meme while I dust off this thing.
Stolen from everyone and their mothers.
Why did you join this site?Umm..I believe a friend from college led me here. She had an account and so I joined timidly, didn't use it for about year because I was going through a heavy dry spell at the time...and then came back when I started doing all my emo art again. Yeaaah D:
What does your username have to do with you? Is it a combination of your favorite things, or a character of yours?Um, by the time I started using Melii, it was a nickname version of the username I had been using everywhere prior (melfinaj) and much less embarrassing. I liked Melii because it was short and simple and for some reason the two i's at the end were always very pleasing to me.
What is your current icon of?A god(dess) I created. It's a tegaki of "her" and (s)he is nameless. But I really like "her" design and needed a change.
How many watchers do you have and how many people are you currently watching?I watch 179 and am watched by 197. Neato.
Do you have more than one account?ffff no.
Name 3 of your favorite artists on DA.
,

,

Limiting me to three is really unfair.
What deviant do you admire because of their personality?Oh geez. Um.... maybe

or

???
I don't really know. Does this mean people I don't consider friends or what?
How many people on here do you actually know in reality? Post their avatars.blaah. Um

,

Do you comment, fave, or both?Both, but mostly fave. I tend not to comment when I don't think the person cares/will read it. I tend to comment more with people I know or people who are responsive to comments. Or when someone asks a question that I simply MUST answer.
What do you typically post on deviantart?Digital Art....uuh. I don't know. Do I have a typical pattern? OCs I guess.
Do you participate in clubs or contests here on DA?Clubs, no. They have too many rules that I find ridiculous so I'm kind of done with them for now. Contests on the other hand, are something I'm trying to get more into, if I like the prizes.
What is your most popular deviation?Um, My Ouran fanart of course (bah and I now hate it. Must redo!). Or Fat Bottomed Girl. It still gets faves every now and again, and comments. And has the most views.
What's your favorite submission in your favorites gallery?hahaha. This question is stupid. I can't have a favorite out of my favorites. Stupid!
What are the things you wish you could draw better?Everything.
Are you a subscriber?Nope.
How many hours a day do you spend on DA?I don't know. I check it here and there. On a day I use the journal or submit art it will probably be more than an hour. On a day I don't, less than.
Are you a fast, slow, or medium typer?Fast.
What is your favorite emoticon?
What is the most annoying thing people ask you?I don't really get annoying questions here. Lucky me!
What is the most annoying comment you get?I guess it annoys me when someone comes and tells me how great my gallery is, only to leave and never come back. If you're grateful for a fav/watch, you can just say "thanks for the fav/watch" and not tell me how great my gallery is, only not great enough for you to fav/watch. I don't mind people not liking my shit, but lying about liking it is really annoying.
What inspires you?Music. Video games sometimes (WoW is really inspiring in terms of scenery. I don't really pay attention to the lore so haha). Umm fashion is really inspiring, and other artists are really inspiring in terms of painting styles. I still haven't found one I like yet so I always get inspired when I see something different.
Do you use any traditional media?Occasionally. Water colorssssss. And pencil sketches. I might try using oil pastels again one day. Just not now
Do you associate people online with their icons?Sometimes. I get lost when someone has a new icon. Especially when two people have similar ones. ffff.
Have you ever suggested a Daily Deviation?I've MEANT to. But honestly haven't. Mainly because I don't know what to say. I'd rather suggest galleries than any specific piece of work.
Everyone has considered leaving DA once or twice. Have you? Why?Of course. Um. Well the sexism thing really bothers me. And the unfair treatment towards people without subs. I mean, I can understand a lot of the more unnecessary features being sub only, but something like critique, and getting attention for something needing critique should really not be a sub only feature. It really shows how dA cares more about money than about the art community and furthering artists. But I can bitch and moan and never leave because I've made a nest and friends here like everyone else. Maybe they will push me far enough to leave one day, and no one will care and it will make no difference. fffff! Which is why I don't leave.
I need to keep putting this up over and over until I actually do this stuff because otherwise I WILL FORGET.
