{Fish Bowl} Intro thread - CLOSED!

Fish Bowl

Owners

Okay so some, if not all, of you know that lately I have been trying to template a new adopt. Last night I was trying and trying to put scales on them, but I couldn't get it to look right and then I realized that they actually looked good without me making the scales on them. I also told Ember that I'd wanted to have at least 2 breeds to start with, but...I wanted to post what I already have done so that it would give me an idea of whether or not these were a good idea. So...Check out the next couple of posts for a few small events!

[Riverwind]

~Premade Dice Game~

This game is just so you can see what the shading/highlighting looks like on them. I would like to say that dark colors don't look quite as good on them as lighter colors do.

Rules:
- You may only win one of these. If someone wins the one you are trying for you can switch to rolling for the other one.
- Gifting is allowed, but if you win one and gift, you can not try to win the other one.
- You may re-roll once every hour after your last roll.
- The game ends when both fish are won.

~CYO~

Decided to do something really simple, since I do still have other things that need done.

Rules:
- You may color one for yourself and one to gift. Or two to gift.
- Do not add your own shading. I will add it when I'm done. (Had to do it this way because Gimp for some reason won't let .psd files have layers. So I have .xcf files instead. o.o )
- Deadline for posting is January 26th at midnight Secundi time.
- Fill out the form below to enter:

~Glitter Contest~

This lady loves sparkly and glittery things! Post a picture of something sparkly.

Rules:
- Post a picture (or link) of something glittery or sparkly to be entered.
- You may only enter once.
- No more entrants will be accepted after 22:30 Secundi time. At that time I will choose my favorite picture. Note: Entrants will NOT be randomized. I am choosing my favorite!

Won by Crys

~Bribe Customs~
Forms found here

I am aware that some of you don't do well with CYOs, for one reason or another. So...I have decided to give you the chance to bribe me for a custom or two.

Rules:
- There are 3 types of customs at the moment. Song, Semi, and Full.
- There will be 5 slots open at first. Once I finish those 5 and get them delivered, I will open more.
- To bribe, just post the type of custom you are wanting and what you are offering.
- You can only have one slot at a time. Once your fish is delivered, you may bribe me again if you so choose.
- Please keep in mind that this is a real bribe!
- I reserve the right to stop accepting bribes/forms whenever I feel weighted down by the workload...this does NOT mean that this game will be closed for good, though, so if you don't get anything before I need to close it, then don't be disappointed.

Slots:
1. Bun - song custom
2. Kadana - song custom
3.
4.
5.

What I'm looking for...
- Customs or Semi Customs or Song Customs of adopts
- Feli
- FCFC (NOT Chihuahuas)
- Quinsta or Quinsta RBs
- Mimics of my characters
- Can try other things, as there's likely something I missed.

[Wildfilly94]

I will attempt to make a few CYOs tomorrow maybe I'll have all day to try and see if my darned mouse will cooperate!

Also GIMP files can have layers, the layers just can't be in folders when they are saved. GIMP does not like folders.

[Riverwind]

I know Gimp files can have layers, but...the version I have does not recognize the layers for .psd files. It does when I open them from somewhere else, but when I save as .psd, the layers disappear.

[SPO]

...weird

[blockquote]Rolled 1d30 : 14, total 14[/blockquote]

I may or may not try to do a couple CYOs. Not the best at art, I'm afraid. XD

[Silvanon]

Female entry:  [blockquote]Rolled 1d40 : 26, total 26[/blockquote]

Ok, so if I'm reading right, we can only try for one at a time, we can't roll for both?  Do we only get one try, or can we roll again after a certain amount of time or some such?

I shall be back soon with CYO's. 

[Riverwind]

Yes, you can only try for one at a time. You may re-roll once every hour after your last roll.

Sorry...I thought I had that last part in the rules part. Thanks for pointing it out, Sil! ^.^

[Riverwind]

2 new games in the 4th post! They are short-running events so don't wait to enter.

[Silvanon]

Ok, cool. One last question:  does "every hour" mean we need to wait a full 60 minutes, or does that mean once within each clock-hour time period?

Name: Brooke
Owner: Silvanon

She's based on one of my favorite fish to catch, the brook trout.

I've got my gift-CYO still available, is there someone who'd like me to color one for them?  If so, just let me know gender & description and I'll do my best!

A strange man walks up to Wildfilly94 and hands her a plastic baggie. Inside is a little fish swimming around in the water.







SPO has been given a fish to take care of, because the pet store has no room for it!







Ember was at a bonfire and spotted this fish in the flames. (Superfish??)







Silvanon went to the tropics looking for undiscovered animal species and this fish decided to follow her around--all the way back to her home.







CrystalAngelNeko sees a cloud that looks like a fish (or is it a fish that looks like a cloud?)







Bunraku went stargazing and a fish landed on her head. Where did this come from? (better get it into some water quick!)







SweetCaroline found a fish in her chocolate!







Kadana decided to go fishing at an ungodly hour and went home with a new pet!







DawnStar7 went swimming and saved this little fishy from being squashed by all the limbs in the water.
