Actually, that's kind of the problem I had too, for a while. I think there was something anti-intuitive about it... I can't remember if I actually read them or not, but I think I finally managed it. I did try to use the template that was provided to make an oc.... but when it came down to it, although I thought that the oc would be accepted on a site such as Quizilla or Fanfiction ---I didn't have the guts to put it down, because I'd read over another oc that someone recently posted, and someone else tore it apart (granted, it did deserve it a little), but some of its sins were ones I didn't even realize were sins... And it ended up that I didn't know whether it would be a good idea to put it down. IF either of you want to work together though, when we figure out the requirements and so forth, maybe we could all have a brainstorming session?
