Im just wondering what it was that inspired you to take an interest in a creature you have never seen before.
For me personally i was a child very much into dinosaurs (as all young lads are) and at the ripe old age of seven i watched the film Flight of Dragons and my love of dinosaurs became a love of dragons. Then i forgot to grow up and so i am still fasinated by the creatures.

Mines basically the same as lex.
Except the spyro games were what propelled me into liking dragons rather than dinosaurs.

Well dragonball Z was part of it, but I think it's from my karate actually, as it's always made me like oriental stuff, like dragons  |

for me it was partly books like LOTR but mostly my intrest in darkage history (as from my av and location)
I find it interesting that most british and english nations had a dragon of their own to represent them (my avatar is the mercian dragon)

Have you seen the timeline? On there at the end is when some of the british flags were used. If you have any to add by all means let me know |

I'd always thought Albania was a two headed eagle but looking closer it could be a two headed dragon.

The national flag of Bhutan features the wingless white dragon holding jewels in its claws to interpret prosperity.  |
