Animals To Artwork, and AJ Code Items

Hola a todos!  ( Hello to you all!) No, I do not speak Spanish, I looked this up on Google Translate. XDD
Anyways...
This post is being made for two reasons. I am about to tell you one of them.

So, as you all can probably see, I have a tab called " My Animals!" at the top of the blog. I think I'm gonna change that. Why? Well, a lot of my animals get their looks changed often, and I mean, come on...they're all me. I don't know why I wrote personalities for all of the animals I had. Plus, I don't think anyone cares about the personalities of pixelated animals. 
So that's why I was thinking... maybe I should make that tab into an artwork tab! Only this tab will feature art by OTHERS! That way, I can put the hundreds of Masterpiece screenshots I have to use! Okay, not hundreds...yet.
So how about this. I'll change that tab into the " Artwork By Others" tab. If you all like it, I will keep it instead of the last one. If you dislike it, I have the info as an actual post, and I can return it to normal. But honestly, I'm liking this art-tab idea, so I hope you like it too! I will start working on it right after this post!


Next topic, AJ TOYS! Yes, we all know about these now. I even bought a lot of them! So far, I have bought the penguin, lynx, tiger, panda, and horse toys, plus one Adopt-A-Pet. The eBay ones, the penguin and Adopt-A-Pet, have come, but I'm still waiting on the others. I will post pictures of them maybe tomorrow! But anyways, they are super cute, though sorta tiny, and I even cleared off a whole shelf in my bedroom just for AJ toys! Oh, and in case you are wondering, my Adopt-A-Pet turned out to be a super-cute tan joey!! He's...so...KAWAII!!!! o3o

But today, I'm gonna talk about the code items that come with these toys! I'll give you a list of the ones I know for sure, plus some pictures!

Adopt-A-Pet Joey (tan)- 2,000 gems
Sir Penguin figurine- Windjammer Hat
Here's my sailor bunny sporting the Windjammer Hat. Isn't she cute? I'm surprised how well the Rare Arctic Coat looks with it! :D

Lucky Lynx figurine- Light Up Paw Ring


Sparkle Tiger figurine- Light Up Swirl Ring

OMG! I'm in love with this one! I'm gonna try it on my wizard wolf when I get it! Look! It's even green and purple, just like her!!
Twinkle Panda figurine- Light Up Flower Ring


Magic Horse figurine- Light Up Horseshoe Ring

Maybe I'll trade this one, since I'll have three others, anyway. Can you imagine what people would trade for this!? O.O

Anywho, that's all for now, peeps! Time to start working on the new tab! Until tomorrow, everyone! Sayonara!!! ;)

P.S. Please, if you can, keep advertising this blog! I really love getting more commenters and viewers! So, so sorry if I sound greedy, but like I said before, my favorite part of every day is replying to comments! All of you who are advertising the WJN already, thank you so much! It means a lot! Everyone else, if you can, please help out! I am hoping for many more viewers one day! Thank you!! :)

Coral Canyons Changes + Mt. Shiveer Mysteries

Haha! A little alliteration fun with the title! I'm probably the only one who likes doing that... oh well!
Anyways, today I'm here to talk about some things that the newest update changed. I don't really consider any of it good, except the new Wild Explorers Tent. No, I am not saying the Spiked Collars were bad, I'm just not including those in this post. Here's the REAL things I wanted to show:

 I rather liked that tree, with the little pots on it. Welp, it's gone now...
 Thanks a lot, AJHQ. You ruined a perfectly good relaxing spot by setting demon-mice ( not to mention a squashed phantom) there. Plus, we already have that game in the Temple Of Zios...does AJHQ want to fill every corner in Jamaa with some kind of attraction?
 Hm. I like that they're adding cool details, but...
 Yeah, this happens. They're built into the game's background now, and instead of walking BY them, you walk ON them. Fun. Also, the stuff you CAN walk behind is pretty blurry! I mean, look at the plant on the right! You can barely see it! O.O


Wow. That took less time than I thought. Never fear, because I have another topic for you to dwell on!

For years, jammers have been talking about the bridge in Coral Canyons, and the ice in Mount Shiveer. Some say that these two things CAN be broken, while others deny it. Today, we will focus on the ice of Mount Shiveer, and see if we can unravel the mystery...

( Haha, I wrote this like a movie trailer or something, idk!)

So basically, we're gonna talk about breaking the ice. I honestly think that it can be done, but others say it's impossible. I found some info from the Daily Explorer a while back...FROM a while back. It looked like it was posted when the DE had its old template.

 See? In the last paragraph, AJHQ is hinting that you CAN break the ice and the bridge! Now, I know they didn't say " YEAH PPL IT'S TOTALLY TRUE, SO ALL YOU PPL WHO DIDN'T BELIEVE WERE WRONG!!" Of course, AJHQ workers probably don't talk like that, even in real life...
But yeah, they DID seem to be interested in the topic! So maybe you CAN break the ice!

But even if someone DID, what would happened next? Would they fall into the water, or into some kind of secret underground room? Would they get special items? Here's what one person on the Internet thinks should happen:

No, they do NOT mean you will fall into a foot-deep mossy hole. They thought that, since there's a dino frozen in ice by the volcanic hot pool, if you broke the ice, it could make you fall into a prehistoric dinosaur land! ( It's just an idea.) I don't think that would happen, but it certainly is creative! Sounds pretty fun, too!

Here's another one that someone's brother told them happened. I doubt he was telling the truth, so he's probably crazy, XD! But it still would be so cool...


However, I have a different theory than all of these. Remember the " Seal Cave" in Mount Shiveer, blocked off by ice and rocks?

Well, take a look at this wallpaper! Notice anything different?
Check out the Seal Cave on here! It's OPENED!!
This means that, maybe, one day, this cave WILL open!! But to what? Here's my guess...



I guess that, when you get enough people, the ice will break. There's kinda a gap there, but I'm working on it. It would be more realistic to make the animals fall into the water, since you can see water when the ice breaks into chunks and all, but I think it should be more exciting. Plus, poor animals! No one likes plunging into freezing cold water, especially animals like raccoons and bunnies!
So I think that, when the ice breaks, the animals should fall into a hole. The screen would show all the animals falling into the hole, and then it would go black. When your animals supposedly " wakes up", it would be in a sort of dark cavern with all the other animals who helped. After a few moments, phantoms would appear from a cave tunnel, and try to surround the Jamaasians. The jammers would then have to work together once again to defeat all the phantoms. They could put bows and swords on to do more damage. I just thought that, this way, it could be like they're proving they can work together, by breaking the ice, AND by getting rid of all the phantoms.
Once all the phantoms are gone, a light can start shining from the cave tunnel, a soft, blue light. The color that Mira is. The animals will be required to Sleep and then the screen can go black again.
After a moment or two, the animals will find themselves on the ice of Mount Shiveer again. Everything will look normal, except...the Seal Cave. It will be opened, just like in the penguin wallpaper. The animals can go into the cave, and they'll find themselves in a secret cavern!
Now, I didn't make the secret cavern up. Someone else did. I found a picture of a cool place that looked like it could be an AJ room one day, and I based my theory off that. I dunno if it was intended to be the secret cave for Mount Shiveer, but I used it anyway. Here's the picture, sorry, it's a bit blurry, since I got it from my phone. I couldn't find it again. >_<
Pretty, huh? So anyway, they'll arrive in this room, and they'll all get a gift. When they open it, it will either be a secret, never-before-seen item, or the person's dream item. I dunno how AJHQ would know everyone's dream item, so for now, let's just go with the never-before-seen item thing. 
Now, as you can see, there is a easy-to-see cave tunnel leading to who-knows-where, and a not-so-easy-to-see staircase leading up to another random unknown place. The jammers will be allowed to go in the tunnel and up the stairs, and they'll be able to find something cool. I haven't thought about that part yet. Maybe there would be no way of knowing what is up or in there, because the...adventure-thingy...generates randomly? Again, I don't know how AJHQ would be able to pull this off, but hey, we have giant dens, hundreds of animated items, and lots of secret, animated places. I bet they could pull it off with a little more work!
Ooo! I just though of something! The tunnel and stairs could lead to secret adventures! The tunnel could be a cool underground cave adventure, and the stairs could lead you to all these cool rooms in the cave. Yeah, and maybe you could be trying to find...a key! A key that, once you find, could unlock the Seal Cave anytime you want! It could show a key icon in the top right of the screen once you collect it, and you could click it to unlock the Seal Cave whenever you want, so you can explore the cave some more! ( I think I'm getting the key-icon idea from Club Penguin...oh well!) It could be like an I-Spy game, where you have to search for the key!! If you choose not to climb the stairs, once you log out of AJ, or leave the secret cavern room, you can never go back, unless you break the ice again. And ONLY the jammers who broke the ice will see the Seal Cave be opened. Others who didn't help will see nothing unusual at all.


Man, this turned into a long post! I haven't even played on AJ yet! But anyways, I hope you liked my theory! I know, it's a little complex, but I think it would be a fun experience! That room really IS pretty...
What do you think? Do you believe the ice really CAN break? What do you think will happen! I want to hear your ideas, so if you have one, or an opinion, go ahead and leave a comment! My favorite part of every day is checking my blog's comments, and replying to them! But I have to end this post for you to comment, so I guess I better remind you now to PARTY HARD, BE CREATIVE, and JAM ON! I will see you all very soon! ;D

P.S. Oh, I almost forgot! Here are two den graphics I made for you all! Feel free to use them for whatever, but remember to give me credit! Thanks!

Credit to the AJF and Mel for the zoomed-up open Seal Cave pic, and the comment, dino-land, wallpaper, and secret room are not mine either. Nor the DE post picture. Credit to whoever took them!

Hacker Business

Heyo my fellow jammers! Today, I'm back to talk about a topic that has been popping up in Jamaa.

Apparently, people are thinking AJ is being hacked.

From what some people told me ( and the Internet), Wrenchedjungle, the mysterious hacker from a while back, had a group called the Mighty Squad. I don't find the name intimidating, but that's not important right now.

Today, an arctic wolf and a goat, who's usernames will be kept secret for privacy reasons, told me that more jammers had been getting banned lately. The wolf said that his buddy, the goat, noticed that half of her buddies were inactive, and the goat agreed.
I honestly don't think that means anything. I don't see most of my buddies online, but that doesn't mean that they were banned or hacked.

So basically, people are now freaking about how " Mighty Squad" is planning to hack into Animal Jam.

After that arctic wolf locked me out of his den ( rude), I saw " Wrenchedjungle" in Jamaa Township.

 The "hacker" is that tiger who dressed up like Wrenchedjungle. Sorry, I could only get his/her tail.

So yeah. He was yelling " I will make Aj history by hacking them! Get ready!"
Most of the people, but mostly me and an otter, knew the tiger was a fake. The otter and I told him to hack us. He never did, XD

The tiger said " The hack is starting on Friday in the afternoon". I told him politely that REAL hackers don't normally gloat and brag.
You don't believe that, do you? Okay, so I might have yelled at the tiger. Okay, okay, I did! Don't hate me!! He was lying and scaring people, okay!? NU DON'T KILL MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeee!
( XDD)
Okay, I'll stop.



My opinion on all of this? Fake. As I told the people in that arctic wolf's den, it's about as believable as flying pigs. Or flying whales. I dunno, whatever animal or object you want to fly!
Please DO NOT freak out. It is annoying when I see people saying " Omg I'm so scared I'm crying right now!"
There, most likely, is NO hack happening on Friday afternoon. This was just a feeble attempt at scaring people. Don't let them fool you. Even if this " Mighty Squad" is real, it doesn't mean they're gonna hack into AJ.

So my suggestion is: Just ignore the fake hackers, and the people telling you AJ will be hacked soon. Until AJ, or someone I know, is really hacked soon, I'm not going to believe any of this mumbo-jumbo.



Well, I hope that cleared some things up for you all! If you know anything about this topic, or you have a fake hacker story, don't hesitate to comment! Just remember, don't let the drama queens/kings out there get to you! Believe what YOU want to believe! That goes for this post, too! If you truly believe Animal Jam WILL be hacked soon, I won't mess with your opinion. Just please, think about this post and what I said.

Remember to PARTY HARD, STAY STRONG, and JAM ON, and I'll see you next time on my next post! ;D

I Made One Of My Best Masterpieces Today!

Sorry, I forgot to take a picture of the finished product, but this is the ALMOST finished product! I ended up smearing the lines on the fox and the hat to give it a softer feel. :)

Anyways, I want to hear you guys' opinions on this artwork! Do you like it? Do you have some tips for my next work of art? Please tell my what you think in the comments!

Note:  The picture is intended to be a fox, looking up at a "mysterious animal", who put the feather hat on her head. Yes, I know, when I type it, it sounds weird, but it is meant to be kinda mystical. Oh, and yes, the paw is supposed to be kinda transparent and colorful.

See you soon, AJammers! Oh, one more thing! I bought a lot of AJ toys today! I will post pics of them when I get 'em! Just a tip, though, if you want the cheapest prices, check your local Walmart's website! They sold single toys for about $7, while eBay had them for $10 and above. Most of the toys on eBay and Amazon are expensive, so I only bought a penguin figurine, and one Adopt-A-Pet blind bag. I think it should be called a blind BOX, ( Or a blind...um...den? Blind house?) since, you know, they don't exactly come in a bag, but hey, I'm not gonna mess with the original name. 

Anyways, NOW I'm done! See you all tomorrow! ;)

Mixed Emotions.

I'm mad, but super excited at the same time! Why?

Well, when I looked on the DE, AJHQ told us jammers that the AJ toys would NOT be sold online. Here's what they said specifically:

Basically a nice way of saying " Sorry kid, but no. They aren't online."
They said things like this a few more times, but I'm not scrolling through however-many comments...
Yeah, no.

But anyway,guess what my sister found when she was looking for AJ toys? THIS!






See? AJ toys on Amazon, eBay, AND, of all places...THE WALMART WEBSITE! At least mine, anyway.
So AJHQ has lied to us. They told us " Nope, they won't be sold online!", and they sell them online anyway. Okay, so they actually said they don't have any " current plans" to release them online, but current would include now! Not literally, but...you know! XD
 It hasn't been that long, otherwise I wouldn't have found that post so fast!
But don't take this post the wrong way! I am SUPER PUMPED that these toys came out so fast! MUST BUY THEM ALL IN ONE DAY!!! MWAHAHAHA! ):D
I just wish AJHQ hadn't lied about it. They could've at least said " We don't know yet!"

But enough of all that! The reason I'm even happier is because I won two contests today!

I won a poem-writing contest on The AJ Sunshine, where the winning poem gets featured at the bottom of the blog...
...and I won a fashion show that I never thought I would win on The AJ Whip! I'm so super happy! I even get prizes for these wins!

Please don't think I'm bragging! I promise I don't intend to I just wanted to share this with you all!



Alright, well... I better be getting on AJ now. Yes, I spent half of my computer time looking at blogs and writing ON blogs. So I guess I'll wrap this up by saying...
REMEMBER TO PARTY HARD, BE KIND, AND... JAM ON!

Backgrounds For Harmonypurr

Here are the forest pictures for your blog's background, Harmony!


 A darker forest one

 A sunset over a bare forest
And a forest fire one that I though would be okay. It involves fire and a forest,  like the Fire Pack, and there was even a forest fire in your story!


I hope one of these works for you, Harmony! Remember, you may take a screenshot, or save the picture you want, then you can go onto Template, Customize, Background, and click the empty box to look for a background pic in your camara roll! Hope this helped!

~swirlshine

I Got...MOST of Them.

Hiya papayas! XD
So, as I posted yesterday, they sell AJ toys on AMAZON!
Me and my sis both wanted the Small House and the Princess Castle sets. We both got our Small Houses, but as we were ordering the Princess Castle ones...somebody bought one! So now we just have to share the 1. Wonderful.
But thanks for saving me and my sis two of the sets, like you said! And no worries, if you still want the Princess Castle Den set, they have a new offer! It's a worse offer...but eh. About $30, with about $6 tax. So basically $36. But it's limited edition, so I guess I see why it's so expensive. We bought the last one with free shipping and a cheap(er) price. Sorry to all of you who didn't find this offer! D:

In order to make this post not a total waste to you all, how about some more funny pictures of random things people say and do? YAAY! XD

 This was a comic I created for the DE diamond Challenge! You like?
 Yes...yes you are...
 I saw this mysterious figure at AJHQ's Peck's Den. An unreleased Giant Deer Plushie! I see you tried to hide it, but you can't fool me, AJHQ! :P
 This was in a picture on the Daily Explorer. Why is the word "yeah" like that? You cannot say yeah in that font in AJ! O.O
 I thought we could have up to 500 Jam-A-Grams, you glitchy thing.
 I just don't know.
 Here's a better pic of the whole "brains" conversation. Yes, they were arguing about having brains.
 Slams? Maybe she meant "slaps"? Again, I don't know.
 I think that's a bit of an exaggeration. *Snicker* A bit! Haha, nice spelling of Internet, though! " Interned."
 Your dern? You can't OWN a dern, silly! I have never seen such spelling in my life... eney, trades, dern... yikes.
 NO WE DON'T
 Um. That doesn't work anymore. Doesn't even make sense...
 HAHAHA, no. No he does not. They were obviously trolling anyway, though.
 Another hat I saw in Jamaa that I was not familiar with. Don't tell me! It's a code gift, isn't it? From the toys?
 I don't think that will help.
 * Walks a few paces away* HONK HONK!
 OMG JUST STAP! These words DO NOT make sense together, you are not typing a sentence, and stop trying to use big words to look cool! Those words are not cool, no one can understand a word you're saying!
 Ew.
 Another weird-font-looking snapshot. I saw this one for myself. Nice K...
 Ah, AJHQ, I'm loving your sarcasm!
 A " spare bear suit"? Where did your FIRST bear suit come from...
 I doubt that person'll fit through the sink, silly!
 Yes. Yes you are.
 Haha, that's me. I was being weird, so I dressed up like a British gentlemen and started talking like one. Then I decided to sip some tea, and I burned my tongue. GREAT GALLOPING GOATS, IT BURNS!
 Why? Ugh, I hate Aparri. No offense to you Aparri fans. I'm just saying...he didn't even decorate his den, because he knows people will like it anyway. Why? BECAUSE HE'S FAMOUS. * Again, no offense! Please don't be mad!* But back to the Masterpieces, it's not like anyone is gonna pull it off the wall and run off with it!
 No such thing.
 Rare Trump? Oh dear...



Lastly, here's some awesome art by Jamaasians I have found!

 Beautiful!
 I made this one, as requested by twirlytree. :)
 Though the moon looks a bit strange, I love this picture!
 Oooo! Both of these are awesome!!!
 I love the second and third pictures, melayna82101! The second shows either a kawaii cheetah or a kawaii snow leopard, and the third is an amazing redo of a pretty famous Greely picture, drawn in the Art Studio!
 What a cute wolf! Love the markings!
 The wolf looks so furry! Great texture and tone, shadowblox!
 OMG. I wanted this SO BAD, but she wouldn't trade me it! She got offered a black long Rare Spiked Collar for it! O.O
 Aww, how cute! I do wonder why the panel-separation-blue-things are BEHIND the cat, though...
 SO CUTE! I wish I had this one!
 Aww!
 I love how the artist added no outlines to give it a softer look! Amazing work!
 Very nice arctic wolf, Jammer3d40y! I'm in awe!
 The background you added goes with the wolf nicely, snowycat!
 KAWAII UNICORN!
 How about...YES! I like this one, hehe!
 Ooo! For some reason, the wolf's fur looks windblown to me...!
 An amazing collection of art by the one and only at70085! Your work is outstanding, at!
 Phantomfable made these four pictures, and WOW! These are remarkable! My personal favorites are the fennec fox and the jaguar/lion cat at the top! Keep it up, Phantom! These pictures are apparently worth purple, long Rare Spiked Collars!
 These sketches are great! Great wolves, frog2000girl!
I love it! Can't believe I didn't trade my extra Rare Spiked Collar for this!
 WOAH! This one got offered a black long Rare Spike also! I'm in awe! This is outstanding, Nimadoodle! I asked her if she did art requests, but sadly, she said she doesn't do them often. Oh well, keep it up, Nima!
 Made by my buddy, Nafaria9! I love your snowy landscape! The shadows the trees cast, the little stone, everything! Well done!
And finally, a happy wolf made by Thunderbolt785! You are a great artist, Thunderbolt!



That's about it for today! Make sure to wish your dad a happy father's day, and remember to PARTY HARD, BE KIND, and...
JAM ON!!!
