I know you all hate rules, but I got to have them or else this shop would be total chaos, and I'd be forced to kill people. Which isn't good.
Anyone found breaking these rules are blacklisted/greylisted depending on severity.

1. Don't send a trade without posting an order form first! If I see you doing this, I'll just cancel your trade, thinking you made a mistake.
2. No cybering.
3. No insulting my me or any of my friends.
4. No insulting my edits. Constructive criticism is fine, though. :3
5. These are for display purposes only. These outfits are not equippable by your actual Gaian avatar. These are for your signature/journal entries/posts, etc.
6. No stealing the samples!
7. No PMing/YMing me orders.
8. Please put what page your order is on in the trade title.
9. No altering my work! Do not change my edits in any way, shape, or form. If there's a problem with your edit, or there's something you'd like changed, tell me. I'll be glad to do it. But don't do it yourself. I might have to report/blacklist you.
1O. Do not remove my signature from my edits, under any circumstances. This includes purchasing avatar edit clothing, for wig-bases, that may cover up my signature. If my signature gets covered-up, even if it's possibly accidental, I will be on your case about it. The signature can be moved around, and/or recolored, but cannot be removed.
11. Do not quote any of the first page posts. Especially any of the samples posts. I will blacklist you if you don't remove the offending quote in a timely fashion.
12. I am likely to make mistakes. I'm not perfect. So don't b***h at me if I don't get your order right the first time. Do so, and I'll blacklist your a** on the spot. >P
13. Above all else, follow Gaia's T.O.S.! That's what it's there for.
Anything else, as I think of them, will be placed here.

Follow the rules, and I won't have to kill you. xX;;


1. Browse through my shop, and if you find anything you like, type down what you want and post it on the thread.*
Calculate the total yourself, and post it as well. I will double-check the total for you, if you'd like.
2. Provide me an image of an unclothed avatar in the order as well.
3. Begin the trade with me, Celestina Daratrazanoff, and in the trade title, state what page your order is on.
4. Wait patiently for your order to be filled, and watch for a trade notification.
5. Confirm the trade, and as soon as I see the trade has been completed, the outfit(s) will be PMed to you as soon as possible. (PLEASE HAVE YOUR PM'S ENABLED!)

*Example of a Good Order Form

Example of a Bad Order Form


Easy enough. Got it? Good.

Do not PM me for anything, unless your PMail involves the following:
arrow Asking to be an affiliate.
arrow Ordering a surprise gift edit for a friend/loved one, and you wish for them not to know.
arrow Asking me a question that is not in the F.A.Q.

Alright, enough about the rules! Onward!

This post is on hiatus.

So, you didn't find anything you liked in my showroom? That's unfortunate, but if you'd like, I can make a special design for you. The price of a custom can run from 200g for simple Gaia Item recolor, to 15k for intricate, crazily-detailed scene edits.

Once you place an order for a custom, that design is excluseively yours for two weeks. After that, I will place it here, for sale to the public. You may, of course, keep the edit for yourself if you still want it after two weeks. ;D
This is so that you can have your very own creation by me, all to yourself for a while.
I will not, however, place OCs up for sale unless the user gives me permission.

To actually get one of my customs, you'll either have to win an auction or bribe me with gold/items. I once made my customs readily available, and consequently, I'd get scary requests that were worth a lot more than what I had priced a custom for. So, yeah. Bribe or win.

Customs are available only through winning auctions or bribing me. Please do not ask for a Custom unless you have fulfilled either of those conditions. Thank you.

The people I heart to death, and the people who I want to domokun their heads off. They will be listed here under the appropriate headings.


White-Listed people are granted a 3o% discount on all my products. I will not remind you, though, about the discount. It's up to you to remember if you have a discount or not.
To take advantage of the discount, please calculate the discount yourself, and subtract it from your total. If the number comes out to be a decimal, round down to the next lowest number. (i.e. 500.6 would become 500, 450.8 would become 450, 350.4 would become 350, etc.)

Bad move. You irritated me or one of my White-Listed so badly, or broke one of my shop rules, and you were placed here. That's too bad. ): You cannot order anything from me, unless you pay me 2,000 gold per edit. And I am serious.

- sassymoose; June 12th, 2006
- Offense; She attempted to place an order while I was closed, and used the Limited Order form to do so. ;._. Then, when I went to PMail her to maybe see if she could correct her order and avoid blacklisting, her Mail is set to Friends-Only. stare

- jack_jack29; July 2nd, 2006
- Offense; She placed an order in my shop while I was closed, using that damned Limited Order form to do it.
I didn't even bother to mail the silly girl. She probably has her PMail set to Friends only, too. ;.______.

- she the man; August 4th, 2006
- Offense; Placing an order while I was closed. She didn't even send the trade after posting her order, breaking another rule.

If your name is here, I don't want to hear from you again, unless your post regards a compromise or an apology of some sort. Or, if you're willing to fork over 2k an edit. |:,

Name: Catherine Trinette T.
Nickname(s): Kitty-mama, Trinneh, Lufflebutt, Pantyfrizz, Cherry, Celes, Kittyn <3
Age: 16
Sexual Orientation: Bisexual (If any get any negative comments on this...I keel j00.)
D.O.B: February 26th, 1989
Nationality: Filipina-American (Born in Manila, Philippines)
Current Place of Residence: Miami, FL, U.S.A.
Interests/Likes: Avatar Editing for Gaia, movies, Digital Art in general, traditional media art, video games, computers, anime, manga, electronic music, J-POP, J-ROCK, Uchiha Sasuke & Itachi :3....the list goes on. x3 But those are the important ones...oh, and I like sex, too. xD;;
Dislikes: Chatspeak (but I tolerate it o o; ), n00bs, people who ask "Why?" repeatedly, most vegetables, the colors pink, lime green, and yellow, homophobes...this list also goes on, unfortunately, but those are my main peeves.

Started Gaia: April 16th, 2OO4 (on my "Trinette Daratrazanoff/Eketil Tsukiyono" account.)
What I Like about Gaia: The fact that you get to customize a cute little avatar. Without that avatar, I'd never be able to open my shop. x3 Also, all the lovely friends I've met over my twenty-five months here. :3
What I Dislike about Gaia: It's constantly plagued with some error, bug, glitch, or scam. I know it can't be helped....but, yeesh. x x; Also, I tend to dislike the n00bs that sometimes stray away from the Chatterbox to plague everyone else. @ @;
My Current Inventory:

My Wishlist #FFFFFF Complex Shirt, Fairy Wings, Royal Silver Scepter, Pearl Necklace, Demonbow, Angelic Camisole, Angelic Headband, Laurels, Nitemare Bustier, Were Tail, Nitemare Headband, Angelic Bracelet, Angelic Pendant, Aquamarine UpsideDown Top, Blue Magic Coat, Chain Wallet, Envy SLIK Shirt, Guitar of Angellus, Panda Hat, Portable DJ's Headphones, Devil Tail, Guitar of Demona, Steel-Plated Ninja Band, and the Kitsune Mask
Yeah. I'm ambitious. X3
The "Beginning": I joined Gaia back in April of 2OO4, after finding out about it from my (then) boyfriend, who had been registered with Gaia for a while before that time.
When I first started out, I was terribly confused and made a few posts where they weren't supposed to. I don't think the Mods and the other Gaians liked me much in the beginning. x] My avatar looked painfully n00bish, too. It scares me to think about it. ;P I began to frolic around, then, in the Chatterbox and joined a few bars, and met a whole load of people who I now consider to be old friends. Some of them I speak to on a regular basis, some I barely hear from, but they are still my friends unconditionally.

Me, in General (In no general order or format): I'm a bit strange, and people say I can be bipolar/bitchy/insane/apathetic/shy/quiet/annoying/emo/aloadofotherthingsI'mtoolazytotypeout. But in a nutshell, I'm just...me. xP I'm a little aggravating sometimes, and I act a bit too "depressed" for my friends' likings. But mostly, I'm chipper, a little hyper, and weird when the situation calls for it. I have a good number of friends, both online and otherwise. I'm rarely alone unless I ask to be, so I don't usually maintain a depressed mood. My friends tell me I'm paranoid, as well. Sometimes, if they videotape me doing something, they say I look around nervously or I'm constantly looking into the shadows. The shadows thing is because I have a deep fear of the dark and shadows that was never exercised out of me in my early childhood. o o; Movies like "Darkness Falls", and "Darkness" make me paranoid at night. ;P
I live my life, most of the time, in front of the computer, and I'm very lazy. I'm not one much for hard work. But I love to dance when I'm away from the computer. I'll often crank up some random electronica, psytrance, or DDR track on my stereo and dance around my house like a maniac. I'm also a music addict. My iPod has close to three-thousand songs now, ranging from the Righteous Brothers' "Unchained Melody", to Combichrist's "This s**t will ******** you Up", to Rammstein's "Mein Teil". I rarely stick to one music type, or artist, although I tend to stray away from hip-hop music at all costs. It bothers me. o O;
When it comes to anime and manga, I don't know of many due to the limited availability of such media here in Miami. The anime I do know and love, however, are Love Hina, Ah! Megami-sama!, Naruto (my current favorite ;3), Vandread, Sailor Moon, Ranma 1/2, Inuyasha, Full-Metal Alchemist, Gensomaden Saiyuki, Gundam Wing, .hack//SIGN, Excel Saga, Yu-Gi-Oh!, and Weiss Kreuz. I learned about a majority of those through the occasional botched search in Google, or through one of my trusty friends in school, or when I get a new issue of my coveted Newtype USA. ;3
Video games are another huge thing for me. My video games fall in the same organizational pattern as my music, ranging from Dansu Dansu Kakumei (DDR to you non-Japanese-speaking-people), to Gemna Onimusha, to the Final Fantasy Series, to Disgaea. I prefer cartoonish-type racing games, and RPGS, over anything else though. One of my favorite games when I was younger was Snowboard Kids 2, and I find it unfortunate that they discontinued that series. Linda was awesome. ;D
As a random continuation of this profile (xP), my clothing style is also as varied as my music and video game preference. Sometimes, I choose to wear my Nightmare Before Christmas shirt with my fishnets, or I want to wear a simple white button-up shirt. I prefer long-sleeved shirts, pants, and long skirts over shorter things mostly because I don't like showing how pale I am. I'm practically my avatar's skintone. - _ -; That kind of sucks for me though since summer in Florida really, really kills me. I want to move to Minnesota, dammit. oO;
I admit, I do shop at Hot Topic, as "mainstream" as it seems to considered, but I have a preference for darker colors over lighter ones. I dislike classifying myself or others, but my clothing style can be described mostly as "punk rocker", if anything.
My hobbies are mostly, computer/digital art, cosplay, crocheting (scary, eh?), and dancing.
In terms of cosplay, I've made a many good bunch of outfits. Among them are Yamanaka Ino (Naruto), Haruno Sakura (Naruto), Uchiha Itachi (Naruto), Uchiha Sasuke (...Naruto, again), Subaru (.hack//SIGN), Tsukasa (.hack//SIGN), Zima & Dita (Chobits), and Alice Elliot (Shadow Hearts). I don't wear most of them, but instead, give them to my friends to wear to conventions. I don't exactly have fun making the costumes, but it's nice to see the finished product on a happy cosplayer.
I also, as previously mentioned, like to do digital art. Mostly, this is just pixel-bits and dolls. A long while ago, while fooling around with my PSP, I learned how to do dolls. They were crappy, but they were good for firsties. Over the twenty-five months I've been on Gaia I've been improving slowly and getting a feel for a style that's my own.
I prefer pixel-shading over tool-shading nowadays, since it gives me greater control over where my shading goes. Although if I'm working on a large base or KISS dolls, I use tool shading. I'm not that patient. XD

...I can't think of anything else right now, oddly enough. o o;
If you read all the way down to here, congratulations. I lurvvles j00. <3
Well, there you have it, a profile, and a ramble from yours truly! ^_^ I'll add more as I think of it.
