I used the add attachment for the photo and it gave me a very small picture. The other method from Flickr just gives a question mark.....What to do?

What method from Flickr are you using? Copy the code given in the Flickr "share" menu and then paste it directly into your text. I hope this helps! If not I can take screenshots tomorrow.

Kitsune, "fox" in Japanese; interesting doll. Did the artist represent the 9 tails the animal is supposed to have in the myth?

Can you please delete the first smaller photo? I can do photos from Flickr now and now I'm trying to add text to the photo. Thanks for your help allurose and bibarina!

Kitsune, the Demon Fox is a wonderful porcelain doll from SisterFox. She has two outfits, two wigs and a myriad of wonderful, teeny tiny accessories. I am very intrigued with this doll and concept. I fell in love with her the first time I saw her on SisterFox's Flickr. She does not address the nine tail issue as she is portrayed in her female form here. I try to make her fierce in her photos but she always ends up looking very sweet to me as do all of SisterFox's dolls.

Ok, now that I have looked at Kitsune by SisterFox more carefully, I have noticed that there are seven tails in the back of the ponytail behind her head. I'll have to get a picture of this. I thought this was just her unique hairstyle but they are apparently Kitsune's acquired tails.....

Oh, there she is too! Yes, I've made seven tales in her wig but didn't make any photo of it, I forgot.

I would love to read the fable. The doll & concept are beautifully done. Need to do my research.

jilljackson Well, when I was a kid I read a book with Japanese fairytales and stories. There were some stories about magical foxes. Some times a man saved the fox from death and later that fox came to him as a beautifull girl. In some other stories some man met the girl and later it occured that she could turn into the fox. There was a story about the White Fox with seven (if I remember right) tails, she was an enchantress. As I know in Japan foxes considered as demons, some magical creatures. As I remember in that fairytailes they all was kind to people, although people often was afraid of them. Chinese foxes in contrary mostly was very dangerous and could harm people. So this is my vision of this sort of creatures in human form

Your vision of the "Fox" is beautiful "Sisterfox". I grew up reading fairy tales and mythology, but not a lot about Japanese folklore. I should study these more.
