This is Meg back with Crazyinnc! You have probably seen Crazyinnc's designs around Whyville. Like many of her famous face parts such as, "Jelly Belly", "Oh My Gosh", "My Top Hat", "Anti Bush", and "Stop To Smell The Roses". How does she make these terrific parts? Let's find out!

megmeg9: How did you hear about Whyville?
crazyinnc: My friends and I were bored in computer class and one of the girls told us about it.
megmeg9: Whyville would be a good website to go on when you are bored! Why did you start making face parts?
crazyinnc: I won a one month Why-Pass and figured I should probably make a face part or two while I had access to Akbar's Factory. Before I had the Why-Pass I would request things in different colors and usually the designers ignored me. So I figured it was just easier to make the parts myself if I wanted different colors or designs.
megmeg9: That's cool that you can make the designs you want. Do you have any favorite face parts of yours? If yes, what are they?
crazyinnc: My favorite face parts are Class Of 07 Yo, Graduating With Honors Yo, and High School Graduation Dress. About two weeks before I graduated I thought it would be cool to give my avatar a graduation cap and gown too. I had to redo the cap about five times because it kept coming out too big.

megmeg9: That is a creative idea! I bet people enjoyed that! Do you have any favorite designers? If yes, who are they?
crazyinnc: My favorite designers are YargPixie, Twigsy, and mitsuy. For about a year my face was just a collage of mitsuy's cats, it looked pretty neat!
megmeg9: They are all fabulous designers! I bet that did look cool! Are your creations inspired by someone, or anything? If yes, what?
crazyinnc: Some of them are inspired by stuff I actually have, like the prom dresses and the graduation stuff. But a lot of my parts are just remakes because I like to experiment with colors. Or I would find a part I liked and something would be uneven and it would bother me, so I would change it to the way I liked it.
megmeg9: That's very interesting, that explains why your designs always look perfect! You must spend a lot of time making sure every little thing of your face part is the way you want it! Can you give any tips for your fans on how to make good face parts?
crazyinnc: Microsoft Paint. I've spent hours drawing in paint trying to get something the way I want it and it's great practice.
megmeg9: I should really try that! Were there any challenges or struggles at first in the Face Part Industry?
crazyinnc: Before they had the save button I would get tired of drawing. The eyes I made (an eye CRAZY and The Other Eye CRAZY) weren't supposed to be separate, but after I finished the first one I was too tired. So I just stopped and made the other one later.
megmeg9: Thank you Whyville for the "Save Button!" Do you think you will restock or continue to make face parts in the future?
crazyinnc: I'll definitely continue to restock and I'm slowly getting better at making parts so I plan to keep practicing.

I can't wait to see crazyinnc's new designs! I hope you got the chance to get Inside the Designer's Mind!

This is Meg, watching crazyinnc getting more successful everyday!
