    "If your lucky enough to actually get to know the "Vivacious Dynamo" named Fant!
    You shall never forget!
    This postmodern-gypsy-warrior has a massive talent, humor, and humanity. And it's wrapped up in a user friendly package!
    I feel lucky.

    Zivjeli!"

    "En español :P

    Creo que no la conozco mucho, ya que la unica faceta que conozco de ella es mas bien la musical , en el grupo que lideró en algun momento llamado Novak Seen.

    Te cuento Noli que precisamente ese disco (homonimo) fue el primer cd que me compré, casi sin quererlo, ya que yo en ese momento iba a comprame o uno de Dinosaur Jr. o uno de Mudhoney.
    Derrepente el vendedor me dice : " y que tal si te llebas éste" (aludiendo a tu cd), y yo le digo, "pero claro, escuchemoslo primero", lo escuchamos y . . . me encanto !!

    Saludos Noli y espero que tu carrera ( ya no tan musical) sea tan fructifera como llenadora de tu alma. : )"

    "Noli is a flickr wunder! Art is how she makes her living, and her photos show so much care, so it amazing how light and welcoming and friendly she is to anybody and everybody who comments. Not to mention her ability to reply in any of seventeen languages (two are just made up, I'm pretty sure, but still it's impressive),"

    "No wonder Noli's called Fant. She's literally a *fant*astic person.

    Artist by day and rocker by night, and our flickrversaries are days apart. I'm not copying you! Honest! OK. a little bit..."

    She draws dotty pictures of people I've never heard of
    She takes pictures of bugs and rude trees
    She looks gorgeous in her bikini
    She likes the Dead Kennedys and Goldpfrap
    God I love this woman!!"

    "fant rhymes with pant. Which, somehow that is half of pants...I'm not sure anyone would want to wear just half of pants...maybe madonna, or j.lo...but nobody I directly know.

    oh and noli takes cool pictures. I always like the ones of her...because she's always so full of expression. I'm sure people walk down the streets of new york and when they see her they say "you know, that gal is just full of expression.""

    "On the occasion of her one year anniversary in the Flickrverse, let us all take a moment to remember how many witty, lonely, silly, beautiful, colorful, poignant, joyful, titillating, exciting, evocative, satisfying, precious, brave, passionate, peculiar and crafty images this woman has given us. Thanks Fant."

    "Her cup runneth over with talent. From stipple, collage, macro'd seashells, and a "bitchy" flower to a little blue plush guy named Warfy from her very funny early Flickr pictures, Fant is truly a conduit stemming from the talent heavens. Plus, there's the silly and playful element. Her work relaxes, soothes, and inspires me. Thank you, Fant : )"

    "I'm pretty sure that Fant suffers from insomnia, otherwise I'm not sure where she finds the time for all the things she does. A talented musician, photographer, stipple artist, collage artist, 3-D flasher... the list goes on.

    Perhaps most importantly, she still finds time to be an essential part of this community. Her photographs are accompanied by thoughtful commentary, with the right touch of humor, which she also provides to others in her comments. Not to be missed."

    "Ever since I met Fant, she has inspired me to be a better photographer... In looking at her photos I can see why. As an artist, she takes in each scene and gains an intimacy with it. From there she seems to be able to do wonders... Keep shooting Fanta..."
