AI Controversy In Blythe Doll Cyber Land

So this month's them on Blythe World was bright so I thought My Italian Culture, The Asian Culture, AI backgrounds and nature! Some did not like the use of AI and it actually was banned from our group? It didn't stop others from using it though because one of my dolly Facebook friends Leo created Blythe Doll Creative & Unrestricted Facebook Group.

It all started because of this!! I made the dress and it needed a spectacular background so I thought that maybe Grok could help me out! Wow!! Did Grok ever! The background is beyond fabulous!

This is the before and my Maria is so cute and lovely in that amazing dress I made her but the rest fell flat. I wanted something special and something different.

I have no hard feelings for those that just don't like it but I tell you some seemed to be using it as an excuse to personally attack those who use AI. Some said it was using up our natural resources but so does anything that uses electricity like the Internet. Another said it was plagerizing? I was using my own picture of my own doll dressed in an outfit that I had made so i think not! Then there was the other that said it's not creative? But I was working with Grok providing my ideas. Grok was like a digital tool I was utilizing.

The post asking about how members felt about using AI was locked on ably the World FB because it was getting heated so I couldn't address some of the claims I felt needed addressing though so that's why I blogged this. I also addressed it on Blythe 411 The Original & Off Topic Blythe Doll Posts too.

Anyways, I am not going to stop using it when I feel it's appropriate. It's so much fun too! I really like it sometimes but I am using all kinds of materials and media. I'm a Libra and we are very based and balanced like that! I will do whatever the fk I want to do because I'm not a mindless lemming.

Ever since I started in the Blythe Online Community in 2000 there are some that are so not inclusive and very closed minded. I have seen so many hate sites, trashcan sites and uncensored sites in the Blythe Doll community that I never was a member of. I unfortunately have been attacked on them probably because I lead my own path, share truths, stick up for others and enjoy my hobby how I want. I even found some dolks very cheap in early 2000's. People still do!

Blythe Doll Care & Tips ( Stains & Storage )

There is so much information out there concerning Blythe doll tips and care that I thought that I would combine what I learned from my own experience over the years and all that I found out from researching the web into this single blog. Storage - When storing blythe dolls it seems that often there is a chemical reaction with plastics that causes melting. So when storing or traveling with your dolls, please be sure that the doll is not touching other plastic (stands, shoes - especially Rosebuds, dolls arms & legs, etc.). Plastic from the face has even melted when the legs of another doll has touched, so please do not store together or any other part touching will melt the doll if stored, it is ideal not to put the dolls together and keep separate. I wouldn't even store the doll contacting the dolls own arms and/or legs to the face. Some even wrap their dolls in a piece of cotton. Stains - Please be careful of denim, tights and black & red clothing. They are probl...

The "Blythe Bible"

I was sent a Blythe Folder containing pretty much the beginnings of Kenner Blythe Dolls information, by the Toy Hunter, Jordan Hembrough, for my collection. He told me that he was sending me what he called a "Blythe Bible", a file filled basically with designs, pricing, handwritten notes, etc. from a former Kenner employee that he had acquired during one of his hunts. The Toy Hunter said that I could post the contents to share with all Blythe Collectors too and he also told me that it's been over 40 years that it was not subject to any copy write restrictions. It's all photocopies that I have, with a few color copies, and not the originals, but they're still great for referencing! If you are a major collector of Blythe dolls this is probably like plastic crack for you. lol Others may not really care about these but I did find them very interesting myself. He sent it to me a few years ago but unfortunately it wasn't the right time to post it with all that n...

Products That Help Reduce or Eliminate Yellowing On 1972 Kenner Blythe Dolls And Link To Blythe411 Reduce The Frizz Tips.

On Blytheworld Facebook my facebook dolly friend, FiFi Latrixabel, posted she had won a yellowed blonde Kenner Blythe, her Lemon girl, and is attempting to bleach her dolly to have her go back to the original skin color face plate. She is using Pearl Drops but there were other suggestions too. I logged it on my Blythe411 Facebook group with permission from Fiona and another member that had some tips. Pearl Drops "Worth a try until I can get my stuff together for a major skin bleaching session." Fiona W. Snipped from Fiona's post on BlytheWorld with her permission. Update pic of Fiona's lovely blonde kb! I think the yellowing is fading with the pearl drops and the doll is looking very lovely! I can't wait to see the after pictures :D "The formula is called RetroBrite. It removes yellowing from older plastics and returns them to their original color/state. Hope this works." Adrian D. L. Snipped from the following thread with permi...
