Hi there!
Since Ive last posted Ive had some positive changes! My scores have gone up. I went to discover to see if I was pre approved and to my surprise I actually was pre approved for a Discover it card! I applied, and got approved with a 700CL, not high but still better than a denial! I ended up with an inquiry as expected. Then I was on a app wave, so the next day I went to VS, and approved for a 200CL. I should've stopped there, but the a few hours after my VS app, I went and applied for another comenity bank card and got denied! So that inquiry wasnt even worth it! My scored ended up going down 2-5 points. I havent been denied in a very long time, so im wondering if that will hurt my credit besides the points that already dropped? Will that lower my chances for approvals in the future?? Also, how do I find those little card images that people have on their profiles??
Thanks!

I really suggest that you start gardening for about a year. If you apply anyting soon, it will definitely look like you are desparate for credit since most inquiries and new accounts are so recent.
