Hello! My name is Bethanie, and I just happened onto this forum. :lovestruck4:
I am an 18 year old crazy woman from the midwest. (The heartland of the United States, for all of you non-Americans.) I am an avid debater, and I'm not afraid to take on any subject! The usual subject that I end up debating on (a casual, mature debate, mind you) is religion. For some reason I always end up in a discussion about this in particular, but I digress. I love reading, and I am always devouring books like mad. Fiction, science fiction, and historical fiction books are normally the genres I delve into. I've tried my hand at writing a few, but have yet to show anyone. (For fear of critism, maybe?)
Let's see.. what else can I tell you.. Oh! I volunteer, alot. Normally it's at the local humane society, but I volunteer at a food bank, and a senior home too. I currently only own one pet, a Saint Bernard (my baby boy!) named Duke. We had to put my Yorkshire Terrier; Winston, of 18 years down in October, and about a week later we got Duke. We went from 10 lbs, no slobber, and no shedding to a 86 lbs (he was so small when we got him because he was neglected, he eventually will be about 160-180 lbs, at 93 now), contantly drooling, always shedding big boy. Despite his size, he is a lap dog! I love him so much. Anywho, sorry for making you read all of that. Also, I am addicted to IMVU, and I love to chat. I'm also a developer, thought I'm quite new! I've found a love for making products, and I hope to branch out into some furry specific items here soon!
I've always thought it'd be awesome to be connected to some other IMVU furries out there, and I was ecstatic when I saw a button to this forum! I also see you have a roleplaying section! =3 That's something I want to get into, too!
Okay, now for my furry personas! I'll post images, cause it's better than trying to rely on my detail communicating skills. (Not so good, :th_PyongLlora: .) Oh! Also, I did the graphics for both of these, and if any of you would like an avatar done, or a signature (been doing them for a LONG time now) I would be HAPPY to make one for you!
The first is a Pink Leopard! I'm not even a fan of pink, normally, but something about this was.. a stray from normal furri-ness, so I had to have it.

The next is my other fursonality, a natural leopard. (Alas.. no ears for her yet.. ran out of moolah..)

Well.. hope I did this whole introduction business right. I'm anxious to talk with you all!!
