The votes are my pleasure, instead of thanking me, please tell me what you'd like to see on Zivity next. What is your dream feature? How can we improve?
Hey, pretty lady. I was wondering what the turn around time for sets submitted for contests is approximately? I was trying to get one in for the derby theme, but there seems to be a hold up with the photog master agreement. Any info would be helpful : ) Thanx.
oh oh oh! do a calendar!! =) I wanna do one! for Zivity! or at least have people do different months! and send it in?
I wish I could steal you =)
Thank you!
Thanks for the welcome and for the votes...looking forward to contributing more around here. Seems a fun place. :)
hey i tried faxing over my model master agreement and stuff and i kept getting communication error. if you did get it, please e-mail me at pinksock@juno.com or write on my wall. thanks love xo
Thanks a bunch Cyan :D I couldn't be happier with the way that set came out!!
Hey there hot mama! Have you been checkin' my sets out? You need to shoot a new one too! <3
Thank you, Miss. The most pleasant of surprises. More sets are on the way!
fun fact Dolphins sleep with one eye open!
You're a favorite person!
What do I want to see on Zivity? Hmmm.
I'd like to see: View counts on sets. A Forum for more interaction. A solid gold helicopter. A more detailed FAQ. And, a box of fuzzy KITTENS!
... I've been very good this year. :)
*hops off your lap*
[thank you!!] I really kinda wish we could post blogs. Some way of allowing viewers to know us better as a model. And please please a clickable link for our DeviantArt. =D And on contests... it to be VERY clear how a winner will be chosen [votes, comments, judge] ... in its own place/tab in clear view.
<3 Sent you some love in my latest set! What would I love to see on Zivity? Interviews! Maybe a place for the models to post fun pictures of themselves....or an outtake gallery!
Thanks for your support and all your encourgement on my sets and thank you for voting for a flower in her hair.
xoxo

Thanks for the votes darling. I would love to see some more black and whites. You look stunning in that set =)
You rule. I love Zivity. xoxoxo
Thanks for making the prize platform... it's especially an honor since there were so many great sets submitted. Must have been a tough decision!
Thank you :) It was fun working with Larana and giving her a new look for the set.
Thanks for the votes on "American Smut"! Check out Dagon and I's new set "One Rainy Morning" which goes up as a featured set tomorrow!
Conan's set is mind-blowing indeed...Very powerful and touching. I felt so grateful afterwards. It changed my perspective on things, and I love when art does that. :)
Thank you! I think your Great!!
You're rad...and I luv ya. Thanks for the votes. ;)
Thanks so much for the warm welcome!! I adore the site. Yes, I'm a mom, which makes the modeling thing a lot more complicated. But I am working my ass off and having fun. That's the important part, right? How are you, other than busy?? ^_^
Thank you! :)
Thanks for creating a site where models can really appreciate one another instead of just compete. I am so inspired by the girls on here and their confidence. It's great to be able to interact not only with industry folks but everyday fans. Keep doing an amazing job. You rock!
Hey Cyan!! I know you want photosets of roller skates, but what about videos? ;D This was a video I made a few months back... I thought you might get a kick out of it :P
Thanks for your votes, lady! In the chat rooms you should make it so that we can click on the profile of the people chatting directly from there instead of having to search for them.
HI lovely lady
thanks for loving my silliness. and involving zivity in helping haiti. :D
me and new photographer Ed Hanson Photo just submitted for your Roller Derby contest. Hope you like! ^_^
thanks for the love and the feature cyan. you're the best. coming to see you guys sometime between the 4th and 10th of february. yay!
Thank you for the vote gorgeous!!! <3 I always love to see that you like my sets ^_^
Awesome! Playboy West or Chicago? Any interest for them to work with me again?
sent the picture!
You are a doll and thanks for the fast response to my inquiry. Let me know when we can do that lunch for real. I still have presents for you... a hint, you might like them on your wall at home :-)
Thanks again for the votes.. I am big fan of yours.. I have a couple of suggestions for zivity.. I will shoot you an email later this week.
as usual, I thankyou gorgeous. Glad you liked the newest set :D
oh dear! i drew you a holiday drawing and took a picture of it to send you maybe i used the wrong email! whats your email?
Ha, I came here to thank you for your vote but I see you've preempted that. ;) Still, it's an honor to have my work acknowledged by someone who sees a gajillion sets a day. My only suggestion is to use less flash on the Featured Photosets page -- I'm ADD and like to have a million tabs open at once, but I can't just click on a set and open it in a new tab to easily catch up on all the new sets. :)
Thanks so much for chatting last night!!
Hmm. I dont think so. I meant my model mayhem portfolio.
I make them^^
did you like your drawing ? :D
Thank you ^_^ i made that thing being silly one day :)
Wow... thanks for the FR. I love your sets they are so fascinating, and so are you. Gorgeous <3

I sent a calendar invite and never heard back... plus I don't have the address of the new Zivity lair. :-) I am free later this week though.
So I run a sort of online record label, and we just released a new EP. I'm really excited about this four song release from SmartAlex: (he's on zivity too --- @Bumpas)

aww thanks. :-d that'd be awesome! :-d
Happy new year, Cyan :] xoxo
it's my favorite tattoo ever...thanks for the love<3
xo
Hey Cyan, thanks for the votes! LiiLii made those antlers for the shoot. She has an Etsy shop where she sells her one of a kind accessories. Might even have those antlers still available :) Drop her a line!
Thank you pretty lady :D
Happy NUDE year! (Ha! I kill me!)
Your new set rocks.
HAHAHHA your america set is so hilarious ! What a pleasure to see :D
Thank you for the votes hun, it measn alot!
Happy new Years Cyan. =) My suggestion is to get Merkley??? a prescription to Ritalin so he gets more shoots out!
Thank you for the votes! I feel honoured.
I don't know why you're not supposed to say but thank you very much! Much love Miss Cyan!
I blogged you.
www.fracturedframe.com
You were super duper fun to work with. :)
Oooh, looks like ya'll changed the "zivity suggests" so it rotates. That's awesome I love it!
i love your sets!!
Thanks for the invite, Cyan! Love the site!
You rock for all the votes ^_^ I love the idea with the prizes, I plan to keep close tabs on them and enter as many as possible! :) Nice to see the site growing ..right as I'm joining, gives good hope for the future.
I am always so happy and honored when I see your votes, it means the world to me.
Thanks Cyan for love love loving our new set! This contest stuff is Fun! Happy New Years!
I know you want suggestions rather than thank-yous but much jumping up and squeaking occurred as a result of the Featured set (especially as it was the first set I submitted) and I'm having so much fun on Zivity already. So I can't not say thanks :-)
I am stoked about new year's eve. Team America FTW!
oh! and Im in the works of entering some of the big contests... ^.~* GREAT idea, I cannot wait.
Its my first contest Ive ever done... and just trying to be more active here. I think with my next set I will give out a print to the person who tells me the best secret about themselves. Nothing even to do with votes... just secrets. ^.^
Thank you for the votes!!! ;) As for your request on what we'd like to see/dream features/improvement...I'll have to get back to you as I'm still figuring Zivity out. Thanks again!!!! xo
Thank you for ALL the LoVe!!! Happy Holidays!!
*You're* awesome. See? Tags don't lie!
i take it you enjoy the antler hood? :P
I <3 You!!! xoxoxo
Thanks a ton for the love on "Naughty Ms Claus". You're such a doll! :)
Gary
Thank you so much for accepting me as your friend. You are one gorgeous woman and it's a pleasure to meet you.
I lovers you ^.^
awww thanks. I'll be ok. Getting lots of rest and Morgan is taking good care of me. So excited to get some time with you soon. :) Glad you're starting to feel human again.
I'm very pleased to see the Prizes section now. I think that'll be really cool.
kisses!
p.s. <3 xoxo
i think adding an RSS feed of our published sets would be integral for our marketing strategies and assist in members subscribing and posting feeds of artists they love!!
u are so damn cute
and thanks for all the help with my questions babe
Agreed with the comment below. Haha! It would be great for people to be able to download an app for ipods and be able to vote from their phones... Good idea.
Awe shuckles. And Instead of saying thanks, I'll complain. I want a zivity app so I can finally be cooler than my friends. They'd be all, "checking my stocks" and I'd be all "oh yeah, BAM! Models" and then I'd win with beauty and grace.
when are we having a zivity networking convention?
Why thankya! If I play my cards right, I'll have one or two more. :)
thanks!!
Hi! Could we possibly have stat counters? Not necessarily for everyone to see, just for our own edification. I'd really like to know how many hits I'm getting and seeing where they're coming frof... especially the referrals from outside the site!
youare definitely getting a picture
feel better darling, and thanks for the love. :D
Get better lovey!
Thank you so very, very much on your incredible generosity!! Very stoked to hear you enjoyed our set, it was so much fun to shoot.
Awww I was about to say thanks for the votes, but I can follow directions, I guess. Don't get used to it, though, it's not really my thing. Here ya go: A bulletin board of some sort. That might solve the fan message/spam- "I just had a new set go vote for me"- sort of emails issue, too. :) More uploads in a few!
and i love love love YOU ;)
hehe i listen :)
