You may remember our interview with @Astralseed, and our free llama adoptables by @Sidonic. Today we're getting into another facet of adopables: OC fashion! @CherrysDesigns will be walking us through what it's like to create and sell outfit designs through subscriptions and commissions. And don't forget, we also feature her answers on our official Facebook page. What drew you to adoptable clothing designs? How did you get into the adoptable community?

Savvy internet users like yourself have no doubt come across the phrase "Web3" in recent months. Don't know what that means? Nobody does! You're not alone. The concept currently exists as a vague groundwork that's tricky to clearly define because, like every iteration of the web, its potential isn't completely fleshed out. Yet.
